Abstract
OBJECTIVE Endothelin-1 (ET-1) promotes the progression and induction of sclerotic renal changes in end-stage kidney disease. Membrane-bound endothelin-converting enzyme 1 (ECE-1) is involved in the production of ET-1. The aim of this study was to assess the effects of ECE-1b rs213045 and rs2038089 polymorphisms, which have been shown to be involved in the development of atherosclerosis, hypertension, and nephropathy, on the development of contrast-induced acute kidney injury (CI-AKI) in patients with acute coronary syndrome. METHODS Our study included 38 patients with CI-AKI (CI-AKI[+]) and 55 patients without CI-AKI (CI-AKI[-]) who had coronary syndrome. The ECE-1b polymorphisms rs213045 and rs2038089 were assessed using real-time PCR. Serum ET-1 levels were measured by ELISA. RESULTS The distributions of ECE-1b rs213045 and rs2038089 polymorphisms were similar between the two groups. Additionally, the serum ET-1 level did not different between the groups and was not associated with the ECE-1b polymorphisms. Peri-procedural low systolic blood pressure (SBP) was identified as a risk factor for CI-AKI development. CONCLUSION Our findings indicate that ECE-1b rs213045 and rs2038089 polymorphisms are not associated with CI-AKI development and that peri-procedural low SBP is a risk factor for CI-AKI. However, variations in ECE-1b rs2038089 may contribute to the development of CI-AKI.

Abstract
Contrast-induced acute kidney injury is a phenomenon that has been extensively studied throughout the years. There is a large volume of literature documenting this risk, and most radiology departments and radiologists use this information when making decisions regarding contrast administration. A review of the current information on the topic of contrast-induced acute kidney injury is necessary to ensure that the risks of intravenous contrast are properly weighed against the benefits of a contrast-enhanced computed tomography scan.

Abstract
The aim of the study was to assess the effects of iodinated contrast media on blood components and endothelium based on experimental and clinical studies and to produce clinically relevant guidelines for reducing thrombotic and hematologic complications following the intravascular use of contrast media. A report was drafted after review of the literature and discussions among the members of the Contrast Media Safety Committee of the European Society of Urogenital Radiology. The final report was produced following discussion at the 12th European Symposium on Urogenital Radiology in Ljubljana, Slovenia (2005). Experimental data indicate that all iodinated contrast media produce an anticoagulant effect and that this effect is greater with ionic contrast media. Several of the in vitro and experimental in vivo studies on haematological effects of contrast media have not been confirmed by clinical studies. Low- or iso-osmolar contrast media should be used for diagnostic and interventional angiographic procedures, including phlebography. Meticulous angiographic technique is the most important factor for reducing the thrombotic complications associated with angiographic procedures. Drugs and interventional devices that decrease the risk of thromboembolic complications during interventional procedures minimize the importance of the effects of contrast media.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Contrast medium-induced nephropathy (CIN) is a well-known cause of acute renal failure, but the development of CIN remains poorly understood. A number of studies have been performed with the one aim, to shed some light onto the pathophysiology of CIN. These have led to manifold interpretations and sometimes contradicting conclusions. METHODS This review critically surveys mechanisms believed to mediate CIN by highlighting the complex pathophysiologic entity, including altered rheologic properties, perturbation of renal hemodynamics, regional hypoxia, auto- and paracrine factors [adenosine, endothelin, and reactive oxygen species (ROS)], and direct cytotoxic effects. Moreover, the importance of physicochemical properties of contrast media are made clear. RESULTS The more recently developed iso-osmolar contrast media are dimers, not monomers as the widely used nonionic low osmolar contrast media. The dimers have physicochemical features different from other contrast media which may be of clinical importance, not only with respect to osmolality. The viscosity of the commercially available dimers is considerably higher than blood. CONCLUSION Many experimental studies provide evidence for a greater perturbation in renal functions by dimeric contrast media in comparison to nonionic monomeric contrast media. Clinical trials have yielded conflicting results.

Abstract
Renal failure is a marker of poor outcome in the general population. Renal failure after percutaneous coronary artery intervention (PCI) is associated with an increased hazard of in-hospital mortality. We hypothesized that post-PCI renal insufficiency would be a predictor of long-term mortality in patients undergoing PCI who survive for over 30 days after the procedure. A retrospective analysis was conducted from a registry of 9,067 patients undergoing PCI at our center from 1997 to 2001. A rise in creatinine by 1 mg/dl from baseline was defined as post-PCI renal insufficiency. Vital status was assessed using Social Security Death Index. There were a total of 996 deaths over a mean follow-up period of 3.2 years. In a multivariate analysis, history of recent acute myocardial infarction, older age, insulin-dependent diabetes, baseline creatinine greater than 1.5 mg/dl, and presence of mitral regurgitation were associated with post-PCI renal insufficiency. Developing post-PCI renal insufficiency was associated with a 4.31-fold hazard of mortality in univariate analysis and a 1.77-fold hazard after adjustment for known predictors of mortality after PCI. The 1-year survival in patients with renal failure was 70.3% +/- 3.91%, compared to a survival of 93.6% +/- 0.27% in those without any post-PCI renal insufficiency (P < 0.0001). Acute renal insufficiency after PCI is a strong and independent predictor of long-term mortality in patients who survived for 30 days after the procedure.

Abstract
Contrast media nephrotoxicity (CMN) in patients with pre-existing renal impairment remains a clinically significant problem. The first step to reduce the chance of CMN is to identify patients at risk through the use of screening questionnaires and renal function measurement. Patients at risk requiring injection of contrast medium (CM) because of important clinical indications should receive a small dose of either non-ionic iso-osmolar dimeric or non-ionic low osmolar monomeric CM and hydration. Intravenous infusion (1 ml/kg body weight/h) of 0.9% saline starting 4 h before CM injection and continuing for at least 12 h afterwards is effective in reducing the incidence of CMN. Prophylactic haemodialysis does not lower the risk of this complication. The value of pharmacological manipulation with renal vasodilators (calcium channel blockers, dopamine, atrial natriuretic peptide, fenoldopam (selective dopamine-1 receptor agonist), prostaglandin E(1), non-selective adenosine receptors antagonist (theophylline), non-selective endothelin receptor antagonist or the antioxidant acetylcysteine has not been fully proven. However, haemofiltration for several hours before and after contrast medium injection offers good protection against CMN in patients with advanced renal disease.

Abstract
Iodinated contrast media are a frequent cause of acute renal failure, especially in patients whose renal function is already impaired. In addition to hydration, which remains the most commonly acknowledged means of protection, numerous pharmacological approaches for the prophylaxis of contrast nephropathy have been tested so far. They include diuretics, calcium channel blockers, adenosine receptor antagonists, N-acetylcysteine, low-dose dopamine and the dopamine D1 receptor agonist fenoldopam, endothelin receptor antagonists, and even captopril. The present review of the literature critically discusses the drugs used to prevent contrast nephropathy from a pharmacological point of view.

Abstract
The pulmonary adverse effects of intravascular use of water soluble radiographic contrast media (RCM) include bronchospasm, pulmonary oedema and increase in the pulmonary arterial blood pressure (Ppa). Symptomatic bronchospasm is rare but subclinical increase in airways resistance is common after intravascular injection of RCM. Experimental studies have demonstrated that the low osmolar ionic dimer ioxaglate can induce significant bronchospasm in comparison with other types of RCM. Histamine and endothelin, which are potent bronchoconstrictors and released in response to the administration of RCM, do not seem to mediate the bronchospastic effect of RCM. Pretreatment with corticosteroids or antihistamine does not appear to prevent RCM induced bronchospasm, but the administration of beta(2) adrenergic agonist can abolish this adverse effect. RCM induced pulmonary oedema can be secondary to endothelial injury causing an increase in the permeability of the microcirculation. It may also occur in patients with incipient cardiac failure, when large doses of RCM particularly of the high osmolar type are used. A rise in Ppa induced by RCM seems to be secondary to an increase in pulmonary vascular resistance through direct effects on the pulmonary circulation. Low osmolar non ionic monomers induce the least changes in the pulmonary circulation and should be the contrast media of choice for intravascular use in patients with pulmonary hypertension. The mechanisms responsible for the effects of RCM on airway resistance and pulmonary circulation remain unclear. Intrabronchial administration of high osmolar water soluble RCM is dangerous and can induce severe bronchial irritation and pulmonary oedema. Low osmolar RCM are well tolerated by the lungs following aspiration with minimal histological reaction.

Abstract
Intravascular radiographic contrast media (RCM) can be associated with significant morbidity in patients with pulmonary hypertension (PH). This study investigated the direct effect of the four main classes of RCM (high osmolar ionic monomer "diatrizoate"; low osmolar ionic dimer "ioxaglate"; low osmolar non-ionic monomer "iopromide"; and iso-osmolar non-ionic dimer "iotrolan") in ex vivo isolated rat lungs perfused with blood at 20 ml min(-1) under basal conditions (air + 5% CO2 ventilation, pulmonary artery pressure (Ppa) 16-20 mmHg) and when Ppa was raised by hypoxic vasoconstriction in normal rats (2-3% O2+5% CO2 ventilation, Ppa increased by 4-14 mmHg). The effects of low osmolar RCM (ioxaglate, iopromide and iotrolan) were also studied in rats with PH induced by chronic hypoxia (3 weeks 10% O2, Ppa 26-36 mmHg). Increasing volumes (0.05 ml, 0.1 ml, 0.3 ml, and 0.5 ml) of RCM, mannitol (osmolar and pH control) or normal saline (volume control) were added to the 10 ml blood reservoir (n=4-9 per group). In normal rats, RCM caused a dose-dependent slow rise in Ppa. The maximum rise in mean+/-SEM Ppa at the cumulative dose of 0.95 ml was ioxaglate 13.8+/-1.6 mmHg>iotrolan 7.3+/-1.7 mmHg=diatrizoate 9.8+/-2.2 mmHg>iopromide 3.0+/-0.8 mmHg (p<0.05). The rise in Ppa induced by ioxaglate and iotrolan was significantly greater than in the mannitol and saline controls (p<0.05). Pre-treatment with endothelin receptor A/B blockade (SB209670) did not abolish the rise in Ppa induced by diatrizoate (0.95 ml) in the normal rat (3.8+/-1.3 mmHg diatrizoate alone and 3.4+/-1.1 mmHg in the presence of 40 microM SB209670, n=5 per group). When Ppa was raised by acute hypoxia, ioxaglate and diatrizoate (0.5 ml) caused a fall in Ppa (percentage fall -53+/-23 and -118+/-10, respectively, p<0.001) while iotrolan and iopromide caused a small further rise in Ppa, which was significant with iotrolan at a dose of 0.3 ml (percentage rise in pressure 14.2+/-2.3, p<0.05). In chronic pulmonary hypertensive rats, RCM (0.95 ml) caused an overall slow progressive rise in Ppa (iopromide 6.8+/-1.7 mmHg< ioxaglate 11.6+/-2.5 mmHg=iotrolan 12.7+/-1.1 mmHg). However, ioxaglate initially induced an acute fall of Ppa (maximum fall 4.22+/-0.9 mmHg, p<0.05) for almost 20 min. In summary, iopromide induced the least change in Ppa of normal and pulmonary hypertensive rats. The pathophysiology of the effects of RCM on the pulmonary circulation remains uncertain.

Abstract
Combined acute inhibition of the synthesis of nitric oxide with L-nitroarginine methyl ester (L-NAME) and of prostacycline synthesis with indomethacin predisposes rats to severe renal injury from radiographic contrast media. The reliability of this pharmacological manipulation in the study of radiographic contrast medium induced nephropathy (RCMN) was investigated. Adult male Sprague-Dawley rats were injected with iv L-NAME (10 mg kg(-1)) and iv indomethacin (10 mg kg(-1)) 15 min apart and prior to injection of RCM or normal saline (control group). A dose-dependent reduction in renal function was observed after intravascular injection of the high osmolar RCM diatrizoate (Angiografin, 306 mgI ml(-1)). A significant (p<0.01) increase in serum creatinine (Cr) (from 54.66+/-8.39 micromol l(-1) to 171.96+/-24.49 micromol l(-1) and from 80.95+/-6.73 micromol l(-1) to 204.76+/-16.73 micromol (-1), n=5 per group) was observed 24 h after injection of 6 ml and 8 ml of diatrizoate, respectively. The increase in serum Cr after injection of 8 ml of diatrizoate recovered spontaneously to 80.87+/-8.70 micromol l(-1) 7 days after injection. No significant change in renal function was observed in the control group (n=5) receiving 8 ml kg(-1) of normal saline or after injection of 4 ml of diatrizoate (serum Cr 69.84+/-5.5 micromol l(-1) pre contrast injection and 66.67+/-13.47 micromol l(-1) 24 h post contrast injection, n=5). The increase in serum Cr observed with 6 ml of diatrizoate was significantly higher (p<0.01) than the rise induced by equivolume of the low osmolar non-ionic monomer iopromide (Ultravist, 300 mgI ml(-1)) (serum CR 68.47+/-8.39 micromol l(-1) pre contrast injection and 143.59+/-32.03 micromol l(-1) 24 h post contrast injection, n=5). The calcium channel blocker diltiazem (10 mg kg(-1) injected intraperitoneally 30 min prior to RCM injection) prevented the rise in serum Cr observed with 6 ml of diatrizoate (serum Cr pre contrast injection 70.31+/-7.28 micromol(-1) and 78.21+/-17.81 micromol(-1) 24 h post contrast injection in animals pre-treated with diltiazem, n=5). The protective effect against RCM-induced reduction in renal function was less with lower doses of diltiazem. In conclusion, the animal model used is reliable and reproduced previously established observations in the field of RCMN. The protective effect of a calcium channel blocker at the appropriate dose against RCMN has also been shown. The clinical effectiveness of this class of drugs in preventing RCMN requires further evaluation.
