Nomogram for contrast-induced acute kidney injury in patients with chronic kidney disease undergoing coronary angiography in China: a cohort study.

ABSTRACT: OBJECTIVES:To establish a nomogram for contrast-induced acute kidney injury (CI-AKI) risk assessment among patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) undergoing coronary angiography (CAG) or percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). DESIGN:Prospective observational cohort study. SETTING:Southern China. INTERVENTIONS:None. PARTICIPANTS:643 consecutive patients with CKD (defined as estimated glomerular filtration rate calculated by Modification of Diet in Renal Disease formula <60?mL/min/1.73?mm2) were enrolled. OUTCOME MEASURES:The end point was CI-AKI defined as serum creatinine elevation ?0.5?mg/dL or 25% from baseline within the first 48-72?hours following contrast exposure.Predictors of CI-AKI were selected by multivariable logistic regression and stepwise approach. A nomogram based on these predictors was constructed and compared with the classic Mehran Score. For validation, a bootstrap method (1000 times) was performed. RESULTS:The nomogram including age, weight, heart rate, hypotension, PCI and ?-blocker demonstrated a better predictive value than the classic Mehran Score (area under the curve: 0.78 vs 0.71, p=0.024), as well as a well-fitted calibration curve (?2=12.146, p=0.145). Validation through the bootstrap method (1000 times) also indicated a good discriminative power (adjusted C-statistic: 0.76). CONCLUSIONS:With fewer predictors and higher discriminative power, the present nomogram may be a simple and reliable tool to identify patients with CKD at risk of CI-AKI, whereas further external validations are needed.
