Objectives: Contrast-induced acute kidney injury (CI-AKI) may occur after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI).

Methods: We evaluated patients with ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) undergoing emergency PCI with serial biomarkers.

Results: Of the 390 patients enrolled in the HORIZONS-AMI biomarker substudy, 56 (14.3%) developed AKI. In the AKI group, the levels of B-type natriuretic peptide were consistently higher than in the no-AKI group at baseline (P = 0.0327), hospital discharge (P = 0.0002), 30-day follow-up (P = 0.0193), and 1-year follow-up (P = 0.031). At hospital discharge, the AKI group had elevated biomarkers compared to the no-AKI group: D-dimer (P = 0.0066), C-reactive protein (P = 0.0468), endothelial cell-selective adhesion molecule (P = 0.0169), adiponectin (P = 0.0346), and von Willebrand factor (P = 0.0168); there was also a trend toward higher cystatin C (P = 0.0585) in the AKI group. Similar correlations between biomarker panel increase and the development of CI-AKI were consistent at baseline, 30-day, and 1-year follow-up. Chemokine (C-C motif) ligand 23 showed an opposite pattern with an increase at all time points in the no-AKI compared to the AKI group.

Conclusions: The risk of CI-AKI after primary PCI for STEMI may be associated with hemostatic imbalances, activation of procoagulants, decreased endogenous anticoagulants, enhanced inflammation, platelet activation, or decreased fibrinolytic activity.

Background: Acute kidney injury (AKI) occurs in up to 50% of cardiac surgical patients and is often hemodynamically mediated. Point-of-care ultrasound is a non-invasive tool that has the potential to characterize intrarenal hemodynamics and predict the risk of AKI.

Objectives: We aimed to determine the predictive characteristics of intrarenal arterial and venous Doppler markers for postoperative AKI in cardiac surgical patients.

Background Children with Down syndrome (DS) often have hypoplastic kidneys and urinary tract malformations that increase their renal dysfunction risk. They also have a higher congenital heart disease (CHD) rate, requiring cardiac surgery during infancy. Renal dysfunction in such patients may be associated with the development of cardiac surgery-associated acute kidney injury (CS-AKI), but this remains unclear.

Downregulation of the immunoproteasome subunit PSMB8 attenuates sepsis-associated acute kidney injury through the NF-κB pathway.

Sepsis-associated acute kidney injury (S-AKI) is a prevalent and life-threatening complication in hospitalized and critically ill patients. Recent researches indicates that immunoproteasome, especially proteasome 20S subunit beta 8 (PSMB8), is highly associated with various kidney diseases. This study aims to investigate the potential involvement of PSMB8 in S-AKI and its impact on apoptosis and inflammation.

Vancomycin administration and AUC/MIC in patients with acute kidney injury on hemodialysis (HD): randomized clinical trial.

Sci Rep

Internal Medicine Department - Nephrology, Botucatu School of Medicine, University São Paulo State-UNESP, District of Rubiao Junior, Botucatu, Sao Paulo, Brazil.

The pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics (PK/PD) of vancomycin change during HD, increasing the risk of subtherapeutic concentrations. The aim of this study was to evaluate during and after the conventional and prolonged hemodialysis sessions to identify the possible risk of the patient remaining without adequate antimicrobial coverage during therapy. Randomized, non-blind clinical trial, including critically ill adults with septic AKI on conventional (4 h) and prolonged HD (6 and 10 h) and using vancomycin for at least 72 h.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the integrity of the repaired rotator cuff between 1 and 2 years postoperatively after arthroscopic rotator cuff repair (ARCR) using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), investigate the factors affecting its change, and assess the association between the change and postoperative clinical outcomes.

Methods: Rotator cuff tear patients who underwent ARCR and were evaluated by MRI before surgery, and 1 and 2 years after ARCR with a minimum of 2-year follow-up were included in this study. Repair integrity was evaluated using Sugaya's classification, and according to the classification types IV and V were defined as re-tears.
