Predictive value of glomerular filtration rate estimated by three FAS formulas for all-cause mortality in patients in coronary care unit by Yang Min, Xu Si, Wu Sha, LI Xiao-ning

“…Objective To compare the predictive value of estimated glomerular filtration rate（eGFR）estimated by three FAS formulas for all-cause mortality in coronary care unit（CCU）patients.Methods From January 1,2014 to June 1,2015,a total of 369 CCU patients were recruited.The values of eGFR_FASScr,eGFR_FASCysC and eGFR_FASScr-CysC were calculated by three FAS formulas.Cox regression analysis was utilized for examining the influencing factors of all-cause mortality and receiver operating characteristic curve（ROC）was plotted for evaluating the predictive value of the influencing factor for all-cause mortality in CCU patients.Results Among them, 93（25.2%）had all-cause mortality events.Univariate Cox regression analysis revealed that age, AKI,operation, use of vasoactive drugs, use of breathing machine, hemoglobin（Hb）,albumin（Alb）,cystatin C（CysC）,serum creatinine（Scr）,high sensitivity-C reactive protein（hs-CRP）,acute physiology and chronic health evaluation Ⅱ（APACHE Ⅱ）score, chronic kidney disease history, eGFR_FASScr,eGFR_FASCysCand eGFR_FASScr-CysC were associated with all-cause mortality（P<0.05）.And multivariate Cox regression analysis showed that eGFR_FASCysC（HR=0.960,95%CI:0.928～0.992,P=0.016）was an independent influencing factor for all-cause mortality in CCU patients.And eGFR_FASCysCmight predict a larger area under the ROC curve for all-cause mortality in CCU patients.Conclusion eGFR_FASCysC is an independent predictor of all-cause mortality in CCU patients.…”

Predictive value of urinary triggering receptors expressed on myeloid cells-1 on contrast-induced nephropathy after percutaneous coronary intervention by Lai Dong-yan, Wei Yin, Mo Chang-gan, Bei Xiao-na, Wei Guang-suo, Sun Wei-dong, Wei Gang, Liang Cheng-yuan

“…ObjectiveTo evaluate the predictive value of urinary soluble triggering receptors expressed on myeloid cells-1 （sTREM-1） on contrast-induced nephropathy （CIN） after percutaneous coronary intervention （PCI）.MethodsPatients undergoing PCI were divided into two groups of CIN （<italic>n</italic>=21） and non-CIN （<italic>n</italic>=179） according to the occurrence of CIN.Serum creatinine，estimated glomerular filtration rate （eGFR） and urinary sTREM-1 were compared between two groups.The correlation between urinary sTREM-1，serum creatinine and eGFR were analyzed.And early diagnostic value of urinary sTREM-1 in CIN was examined.ResultsAge ［（71.48±8.51）year <italic>vs</italic>（62.92±9.16）year］ and diabetic rate （57.15% <italic>vs</italic> 34.64%） of CIN group were significantly higher than those in non-CIN group （<italic>P</italic>&lt;0.05）.At 4 h、24 h、48 h post-operation，urinary sTREM-1 ［（111.02±14.73） ng/L <italic>vs</italic> （47.45±10.36） ng/L，（123.81±28.51） ng/L <italic>vs </italic>（49.29±12.46） ng/L，（134.69±30.37） ng/L <italic>vs </italic>（45.31±9.48） ng/L］ of CIN group was significantly higher than that of non-CIN group （<italic>P</italic>&lt;0.05）.At 4 h、24 h post-operation，serum creatinine and eGFR showed no significant inter-group differences （<italic>P</italic>&gt;0.05）.At 48 h post-operation，serum creatinine ［（89.05±21.13） <italic>vs</italic> （63.42±12.42） μmol/L］ of CIN group was significantly higher than that of non-CIN group （<italic>P</italic>&lt;0.05）； eGFR ［（76.28±21.89） mL·min^-1·（1.73m²）^-1<italic>vs </italic>（112.94±30.46） mL·min^-1·（1.73m²）^-1］ of CIN group was significantly less than that of non-CIN group （<italic>P</italic>&lt;0.05）.Urinary sTREM-1 was positively correlated with serum creatinine （<italic>P</italic>&lt;0.05） while urinary sTREM-1 negatively correlated with eGFR （<italic>P</italic>&lt;0.05）.Receiver operator characteristic （ROC） analysis showed that AUC of urinary sTREM-1 was 0.740 （95% <italic>CI</italic>：0.482-0.998） at 4 h post-operation； the sensitivity and specificity for diagnosing CIN were 62.6% and 73.5% at a cut-off level of 89.0 ng/L.AUC of urinary sTREM-1 was 0.931（95% <italic>CI</italic>：0.868-0.994） at 24 h post-operation and the sensitivity and specificity diagnosing CIN were 86.6% and 73.8% at a cut-off level of 98.0 ng/L.AUC of urinary sTREM-1 was 0.948 （95% <italic>CI</italic>：0.894-1.001） at 48 h post-operation and the sensitivity and specificity for diagnosing CIN were 87.9% and 88.4% at a cut-off level of 108.0 ng/L.ConclusionUrinary sTREM-1 may reflect the early changes of renal function after PCI.It has an excellent value in the early diagnosis of CIN.…”
