Abstract
Background: Finding patients at risk of developing contrast-induced acute kidney injury (CI-AKI) is important because of its associated complications. In the present study, the contribution of different variables, such as the presence of metabolic syndrome (MetS), the volume creatinine clearance (V/CrCl) ratio, the iodine-dose (I-dose)/CrCl ratio, or hypertension, to CI-AKI was evaluated. Methods: A total of 255 patients undergoing elective coronary angiography with or without intervention were enrolled and divided into a MetS and a control group. All patients were assessed for the development of CI-AKI after the procedures. Results: CI-AKI occurred in 39.23 (51 of 130) of the MetS patients and 14.4 (18 of 125) of the control group (p 0.52, MetS, CrCl �60 mL/min, and age �70 years increased the risk of CI-AKI, independent of confounding factors. The difference in the mean V/CrCl ratio was statistically significant between patients who developed CI-AKI and those who did not show renal impairment (2.36 ± 1.35 vs. 1.43 ± 0.89, respectively; p < 0.001). The ROC curve analysis of I-dose/CrCl determined the best cutoff value for patients with and those without MetS as 0.51 and 0.63, with a sensitivity value of 68 and 72 and a specificity value of 73 and 74, respectively. Conclusions: We showed that MetS is a strong risk factor for CI-AKI in nondiabetic patients undergoing elective coronary interventions; and the I-dose/CrCl ratio is a strong predictor of CI-AKI in these patients. We suggest that clinicians identify MetS patients and calculate their I-dose/CrCl ratio before coronary interventions. © 2018 S. Karger AG, Basel. Copyright: All rights reserved
