Impact of Iodinated Contrast Media in Patients Received Percutaneous Coronary Intervention: Focus on Thyroid Disease.

ABSTRACT:

Background

With the rapid advance in percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) technology, patients absorb large volume of iodinated contrast media (ICM). Recent studies suggested that ICM may lead to hyperthyroidism, but the association between ICM volume and thyroid is still unclear. We sought to evaluate the long-term influence of ICM on thyroid dysfunction and disease in patients received PCI.

Methods

This single-center retrospective study included consecutive coronary artery disease (CAD) patients. A covariance (ANCOVA) model was performed to evaluate the change of serum TSH, FT3 and FT4 before and one-year after the PCI procedure. Restricted cubic splines and logistic regression were performed to evaluate the association between ICM volume and thyroid disease.

Results

2062 patients met inclusion criteria (1381 patients in the low-volume group and 681 patients in the high-volume group). The high-volume group was 0.238 ± 0.092 pmol/L higher than the low-volume group (P = 0.010) in the serum FT4. Restricted cubic splines show that there were linear dose-response relationships for ICM volume and composite endpoint and hyperthyroidism. In all models, there were significant differences in composite endpoint between the two groups. (OR 1.75, 95% CI (1.05, 2.92), P = 0.032, OR 1.73, 95% CI (1.01-2.96), P= 0.032 and OR 1.83, 95% CI (1.09-3.06), P= 0.022, respectively). The positive results were also showed for hyperthyroidism in all models (OR 2.35, 95% CI (1.14-4.84), P = 0.021, OR 10.36, 95% CI (1.20-89.00), P = 0.033 and OR 2.35, 95% CI (1.13-4.87), P = 0.022, respectively).

Conclusion

The present analysis gives an overview that ICM volume is associated with an increased risk of thyroid dysfunction and thyroid disease.

Project description:The incidence of hypersensitivity reactions (HSRs) to iodinated contrast media (ICM) has risen over last years, representing an important health problem. HSRs to ICMs are classified into immediate reactions (IRs) and non-immediate reactions (NIRs) according to if they occur within 1 h or longer after ICM administration. The diagnosis of HSRs to ICM is complex as skin test (ST) sensitivity ranges widely, and drug provocation test (DPT) protocols are heterogeneous. In this manuscript, we describe the clinical characteristics of a series of patients confirmed as HSR to ICM and the diagnosis procedure carried out, looking into those cases confirmed as HSRs to multiple ICMs. For this purpose, we prospectively evaluated patients suggestive of HSRs to ICMs and classified them as IRs or NIRs. STs were carried out using a wide panel of ICMs, and in those with a negative ST, a single-blind placebo controlled DPT was performed with the culprit. If ST or DPT were positive, then tolerance was assessed with an alternative negative ST ICM. We included 101 cases (12 IRs and 89 NIRs) confirmed as allergic. Among them, 36 (35.64%) cases were allergic to more than one ICM (8 IRs and 28 NIRs). The most common ICM involved were iomeprol and iodixanol. Although not statistically significant, the percentage of patients reporting anaphylaxis was higher in patients allergic to multiple ICMs compared with patients allergic to a single ICM (50 vs. 25%). Likewise, the percentage of positive results in STs was higher in patients allergic to multiple ICMs compared with those allergic to a single ICM (for IR 62.5 vs. 25%, p > 0.05; and for NIR, 85.71 vs. 24.59%, p < 0.000). In cases allergic to more than one ICM, DPT with negative-ST ICM was positive in more than 60% (24/36) of cases. Therefore, allergy to multiple ICMs is common, associated to severe reactions in IRs, and confirmed frequently by positive STs. The allergological work-up should include DPT not only to establish the diagnosis but also to identify safe alternative ICM, even if ICM is structurally unrelated and ST is negative. More studies are needed to clarify mechanisms underlying cross-reactivity among ICMs.
