Project description:ObjectivePrompt assessment of perioperative complications is critical for the comprehensive care of surgical patients. Acute kidney injury requiring dialysis (AKI-D) is associated with high mortality, yet little is known about how long-term outcomes of patients have evolved. The association of AKI-D with postsurgical outcomes has not been well studied.MethodsWe investigated patients from the National Health Insurance Research Database and validated by the multicenter Clinical Trial Consortium for Renal Diseases cohort. All patients with AKI-D 18 years or older undergoing four major surgeries (cardiothoracic, esophagus, intestine, and liver) were retrospectively investigated (N=106,573). Patient demographics, surgery type, comorbidities before admission, and postsurgical outcomes, including the in-hospital, 30-day, and long-term mortality together with dialysis dependence were collected.ResultsAKI-D is the top risk factor for 30-day and long-term mortality after major surgery. Of 1,664 individuals with AKI-D and 6,656 matched controls, AKI-D during the hospital stay was associated with in-hospital (adjusted hazard ratio [aHR]=3.04, 95% CI 2.79-3.31), 30-day (aHR=3.65, 95% CI 3.37-3.94), and long-term (aHR=3.22, 95% CI 3.01-3.44) mortality. Patients undergoing cardiothoracic surgery (CTS) showed less in-hospital (aHR=0.85, 95% CI 0.75-0.97), 30-day (aHR=0.79, 95% CI 0.70-0.89), and long-term (aHR=0.80, 95% CI 0.72-0.90) mortality compared with non-CTS patients with AKI-D. CTS patients had a high risk of 30-day dialysis dependence (subhazard ratio [sHR]=1.67, 95% CI 1.18-2.38), but the risk of long-term dialysis dependence was similar (sHR=1.38, 95% CI 0.96-2.00) after AKI-D by taking mortality as a competing risk. Non-CTS patients had more comorbidities of sepsis, azotemia, hypoalbuminemia, and metabolic acidosis compared with CTS patients.ConclusionAKI exhibits paramount effects on postsurgical outcomes that extend well beyond discharge from the hospital. The goal of the perioperative assessment should include the reassurance of enhancing renal function recovery among different surgeries, and optimized follow-up is warranted in attenuating the complications after postsurgical AKI has occurred.

Project description:IntroductionAcute exacerbation of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (AECOPD) is a common and preventable event in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Data regarding the impact of AECOPD on short- and long-term renal outcomes are lacking.MethodsWe included all COPD patients who were followed at Queen Mary Hospital (QMH) in year 2015 and reviewed their clinical/renal outcomes in subsequent five years. Relationships between AECOPD and adverse renal outcomes were evaluated.Results371 COPD patients were included. 169 patients had hospitalized AECOPD in past one year (HAE group) while 202 patients did not (non-HAE group). 285 patients (76.8%) had renal progression/death and 102 (27.5%) patients developed acute kidney injury (AKI). HAE group showed a more rapid eGFR decline than non-HAE group (-4.64 mL/min/1.73m2/year vs. -2.40 mL/min/1.73m2/year, p = 0.025). HAE group had significantly higher risk for renal progression/death at 5 years [adjusted OR (aOR) 2.380 (95% CI = 1.144-4.954), p = 0.020]. The frequency of hospitalized AECOPD in past 3 years, any AECOPD in past 3 years, hospitalized AECOPD in past 3 years were also predictive of renal progression/death at 5 years [aOR were 1.176 (95% CI = 1.038- 1.331), 2.998 (95% CI = 1.438-6.250) and 2.887 (95% CI = 1.409-5.917) respectively; p = 0.011, 0.003 and 0.004]. HAE group also showed significantly higher risk of AKI [adjusted HR (aHR) 2.430; 95% CI = 1.306-4.519, p = 0.005].ConclusionsAECOPD, in particular HAE, was associated with increased risk of renal progression/death and AKI. Prevention of AECOPD, especially HAE, may potentially improve short- and long-term renal outcomes in COPD patients.

Project description:ImportanceThe severity of acute kidney injury (AKI) is usually determined based on the maximum serum creatinine concentration. However, the trajectory of kidney function recovery could be an additional important dimension of AKI severity.ObjectiveTo assess whether the trajectory of kidney function recovery within 72 hours after AKI is associated with long-term risk of clinical outcomes.Design, setting, and participantsThis prospective, multicenter cohort study enrolled 1538 adults with or without AKI 3 months after hospital discharge between December 1, 2009, and February 28, 2015. Statistical analyses were completed November 1, 2018. Participants with or without AKI were matched based on demographic characteristics, site, comorbidities, and prehospitalization estimated glomerular filtration rate. Participants with AKI were classified as having resolving or nonresolving AKI based on previously published definitions. Resolving AKI was defined as a decrease in serum creatinine concentration of 0.3 mg/dL or more or 25% or more from maximum in the first 72 hours after AKI diagnosis. Nonresolving AKI was defined as AKI not meeting the definition for resolving AKI.Main outcomes and measuresThe primary outcome was a composite of major adverse kidney events (MAKE), defined as incident or progressive chronic kidney disease, long-term dialysis, or all-cause death during study follow-up.ResultsAmong 1538 participants (964 men; mean [SD] age, 64.6 [12.7] years), 769 (50%) had no AKI, 475 (31%) had a resolving AKI pattern, and 294 (19%) had a nonresolving AKI pattern. After a median follow-up of 4.7 years, the outcome of MAKE occurred in 550 (36%) of all participants. The adjusted hazard ratio for MAKE was higher for patients with resolving AKI (adjusted hazard ratio, 1.52; 95% CI, 1.01-2.29; P = .04) and those with nonresolving AKI (adjusted hazard ratio 2.30; 95% CI, 1.52-3.48; P < .001) compared with participants without AKI. Within the population of patients with AKI, nonresolving AKI was associated with a 51% greater risk of MAKE (95% CI, 22%-88%; P < .001) compared with resolving AKI. The higher risk of MAKE among patients with nonresolving AKI was explained by a higher risk of incident and progressive chronic kidney disease.Conclusions and relevanceThis study suggests that the 72-hour period immediately after AKI distinguishes the risk of clinically important kidney-specific long-term outcomes. The identification of different AKI recovery patterns may improve patient risk stratification, facilitate prognostic enrichment in clinical trials, and enable recognition of patients who may benefit from nephrology consultation.

Project description:IntroductionChronic kidney disease (CKD) and acute kidney injury (AKI) are strongly associated with excess morbidity and mortality and frequently co-occur in critically ill septic patients, but how their interplay affects clinical outcomes is not well elucidated.MethodsWe conducted a single-center, retrospective cohort study of 2632 adult patients admitted to the intensive care unit (ICU) with severe sepsis or septic shock. Subjects were classified into 6 groups according to baseline CKD (no-CKD: estimated glomerular filtration rate [eGFR] ?60; CKD: eGFR 15-59 ml/min per 1.73 m2) and incident AKI by the Kidney Disease: Improving Global Outcomes (KDIGO) serum creatinine criteria (no-AKI, AKI stage 1, AKI stages ?2) during ICU stay. Study outcomes were 90-day mortality (in hospital or within 90 days of discharge) and incident/progressive CKD.ResultsPrevalent CKD was 46% and incident AKI was 57%. Adjusted hazard ratios (95% confidence intervals) for 90-day mortality relative to the reference group of no-CKD/no-AKI were 1.5 (1.1-2.0) in no-CKD/AKI stage 1, 2.4 (1.9-3.1) in no-CKD/AKI stages?2, 1.1 (0.8-1.4) in CKD/no-AKI, 1.2 (0.9-1.6) in CKD/AKI stage 1, and 2.2 (1.7-2.9) in CKD/AKI stages ?2. A similar trend was observed for incident/progressive CKD during a median follow-up of 15.3 months.ConclusionStage 1 AKI on CKD was not associated with an independent increased risk of adverse outcomes in critically ill septic patients. AKI stages ?2 on CKD and any level of AKI in no-CKD patients were strongly and independently associated with adverse outcomes. Sepsis-associated stage 1 AKI on CKD may represent distinct underlying pathophysiology, with more prerenal cases and less severe de novo intrinsic damage, which needs further investigation.

Project description:OBJECTIVE:Obstruction release from urolithiasis can be delayed with a lack of suggested time for preventing the deterioration of renal function. The objective of this study was to investigate the effect of obstruction duration, concomitant acute kidney injury (AKI) or acute pyelonephritis (APN) during the obstruction on the prognosis of renal function. DESIGN:Retrospective cohort study. SETTING AND PARTICIPANTS:1607 patients from a urolithiasis-related obstructive uropathy cohort, between January 2005 and December 2015. OUTCOME MEASURES:Estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) decrease ≥30% and/or end-stage renal disease (ESRD), and eGFR decrease ≥50% and/or ESRD, according to obstruction duration, AKI and APN accompanied by obstructive uropathy. RESULTS:When the prognosis was divided by obstruction duration quartile, the longer the obstruction duration the higher the probability of eGFR reduction >50% (p=0.02). In patients with concomitant APN or severe AKI during hospitalisation with obstructive uropathy, an eGFR decrease of >30% and >50% occurred more frequently, compared with others (p<0.001). When we adjusted for sex, age, hypertension, diabetes mellitus, APN, AKI grades and obstruction release >7 days for multivariate analysis, we found that concomitant APN (HR 3.495, 95% CI 1.942 to 6.289, p<0.001), concomitant AKI (HR 3.284, 95% CI 1.354 to 7.965, p=0.009 for AKI stage II; HR 6.425, 95% CI 2.599 to 15.881, p<0.001 for AKI stage III) and an obstruction duration >7 days (HR 1.854, 95% CI 1.095 to 3.140, p=0.001) were independently associated with an eGFR decrease >50%. Tree analysis also showed that AKI grade 3, APN and an obstruction duration >7 days were the most important factors affecting renal outcome. CONCLUSIONS:In patients with urolithiasis-related obstructive uropathy, concomitant APN was strongly associated with deterioration of renal function after obstruction release. The elapsed time to release the obstruction also affected renal function.

Project description:Rationale & objectiveSepsis-associated acute kidney injury often leads to acute kidney disease (AKD), predisposing patients to long-term complications such as chronic kidney disease (CKD), kidney failure with replacement therapy (KFRT), or mortality. Risk stratification of patients with AKD represents an opportunity to assist with prognostication of long-term kidney complications.Study designSingle-center retrospective cohort.Setting & participants6,290 critically ill patients admitted to the intensive care unit with severe sepsis or septic shock. Patients were separated into cohorts based on incident acute kidney injury or not, and survivors identified who were alive and free of KFRT up to 90 days.PredictorsAKD stage (0A, 0C, or ≥1) using the last serum creatinine concentration available by discharge or up to 90 days postdischarge.OutcomeTime to development of incident CKD, progression of CKD, KFRT, or death.Analytical approachMultivariable Cox proportional hazards models.ResultsPatients surviving kidney injury associated with sepsis often fail to return to baseline kidney function by discharge: 577/1,231 (46.9%) with stage 0C or 1 or greater AKD. AKD stage was significantly associated with the composite primary outcome. Stages 0C AKD and 1 or greater AKD were significantly and progressively associated with the primary outcome when compared with stage 0A AKD (adjusted HR [aHR], 1.74; 95% CI, 1.32-2.29, and aHR, 3.25; 95% CI, 2.52-4.20, respectively). Additionally, stage 1 or greater AKD conferred higher risk above stage 0C AKD (aHR, 1.87; 95% CI, 1.44-2.43). CKD incidence or progression and KFRT, more so than mortality, occurred with greater frequency in higher stages of AKD.LimitationsRetrospective design, single center, exclusion of patients with KFRT within 90 days of discharge, potential ascertainment bias, and inability to subclassify above AKD stage 1.ConclusionsRisk stratification using recommended AKD stages at hospital discharge or shortly thereafter associates with the development of long-term kidney outcomes following sepsis-associated acute kidney injury.

Project description:Both acute kidney injury (AKI) and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) are associated with increased morbidity and mortality. However, the incidence of de novo COPD in patients with AKI, and the impact of concurrent COPD on the outcome during post-AKI care is unclear. Patients who recovered from dialysis-requiring AKI (AKI-D) during index hospitalizations between 1998 and 2010 were identified from nationwide administrative registries. A competing risk analysis was conducted to predict the incidence of adverse cardiovascular events and mortality. Among the 14,871 patients who recovered from temporary dialysis, 1535 (10.7%) were identified as having COPD (COPD group) one year after index discharge and matched with 1473 patients without COPD (non-COPD group) using propensity scores. Patients with acute kidney disease superimposed withs COPD were associated with a higher risk of incident ischemic stroke (subdistribution hazard ratio (sHR), 1.52; 95% confidence interval (95% CI), 1.17 to 1.97; p = 0.002) and congestive heart failure (CHF; sHR, 1.61; (95% CI), 1.39 to 1.86; p < 0.001). The risks of incident hemorrhagic stroke, myocardial infarction, end-stage renal disease, and mortality were not statistically different between the COPD and non-COPD groups. This observation adds another dimension to accumulating evidence regarding pulmo-renal consequences after AKI.

Project description:BackgroundWhile Urinary tract infections are the most common infections in kidney transplant recipients, the impact of late acute graft pyelonephritis (AGPN) on graft outcomes remains unknown. Our study was performed to more precisely evaluate the long-term impact of AGPN.MethodsWe included 9052 kidney and combined kidney-pancreas recipients who underwent transplantation between 2008 and 2018 from a French multicenter cohort. The relationships between AGPN and patient and graft survival were analyzed with a time-dependent multivariate Cox model.ResultsThe cumulative incidence of AGPN was 20.9%. A first episode of early AGPN is associated with a non-significant increase in the risk of graft failure (hazard ratio [HR], 1.27; 95% confidence interval [95% CI], 0.90 to 1.79). Though, cumulative number of AGPN episodes (HR = 1.51; 95% CI, 0.89 to 2.57 for two episodes and HR = 2.08; 95% CI, 1.17 to 3.69 for three or more episodes) is associated with an increased risk of graft failure. In contrast, when the first episode of AGPN occurred late (i.e., 6 months post transplantation), the risk of graft failure is significantly increased (HR = 2.25; 95% CI, 1.65 to 3.07), and this risk remains relatively stable with the recurrence of late AGPN episodes. The onset of late AGPN were also associated with a higher risk of patient death.ConclusionThis analysis shows that late AGPN and recurrent AGPN are both risk factors for a poor long-term graft outcome and mortality. Late AGPN should not be considered benign infections in post-transplantation follow-up.

Project description:Acute kidney injury (AKI) associates with higher in-hospital mortality, but whether it also associates with increased long-term mortality is unknown, particularly after accounting for residual kidney function after hospital discharge. We retrospectively analyzed data from US veteran patients who survived at least 90 d after discharge from a hospitalization. We identified AKI events not requiring dialysis from laboratory data and classified them according to the ratio of the highest creatinine during the hospitalization to the lowest creatinine measured between 90 d before hospitalization and the date of discharge. We estimated mortality risks using multivariable Cox regression models adjusting for demographics, comorbidities, medication use, primary diagnosis of admission, length of stay, mechanical ventilation, and postdischarge estimated GFR (residual kidney function). Among the 864,933 hospitalized patients in the study cohort, we identified 82,711 hospitalizations of patients with AKI. In the study population of patients who survived at least 90 d after discharge, 17.4% died during follow-up (AKI 29.8%, without AKI 16.1%). The adjusted mortality risk associated with AKI was 1.41 (95% confidence interval [CI] 1.39 to 1.43) and increased with increasing AKI stage: 1.36 (95% CI 1.34 to 1.38), 1.46 (95% CI 1.42 to 1.50), and 1.59 (95% CI 1.54 to 1.65; P < 0.001 for trend). In conclusion, AKI that does not require dialysis associates with increased long-term mortality risk, independent of residual kidney function, for patients who survive 90 d after discharge. Long-term mortality risk is highest among the most severe cases of AKI.
