Background: Hyperuricemia may be associated with an increased risk of contrast-induced acute kidney injury (CI-AKI). In recent years, studies about the relationship between them gradually appeared. We performed a systematic review and meta-analysis to investigate whether hyperuricemia is an independent risk factor for CI-AKI.

Methods: Relevant studies were searched in PubMed, Embase, Cochrane Library, and CBM (Chinese Biomedical Literature database) databases until April 18, 2016, without language restriction. Observational studies evaluating serum uric acid (SUA) levels and CI-AKI risks were included. The pooled odds ratio was calculated to assess the association between hyperuricemia and risk of CI-AKI using a random-effects model.

Results: Eighteen relevant studies involving a total of 13,084 patients met our inclusion criteria. Presence of hyperuricemia was associated with an increased risk of CI-AKI development regardless of whether the effect size was adjusted or not (unadjusted OR: 2.08, 95% CI: 1.63-2.64; adjusted OR: 1.68, 95% CI: 1.38-2.04). In-hospital mortality and cases of renal replacement therapy were significantly different between subjects with hyperuricemia and normouricemia undergoing coronary angiography (CAG) and/or percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI).

Conclusion: Hyperuricemia is independently associated with the occurrence of CI-AKI and it significantly increases the in-hospital mortality and the risk of renal replacement therapy among the patients after CAG and/or PCI. Future research is needed to determine whether urate-lowering therapy has beneficial effects for reducing the incidence of CI-AKI and in-hospital adverse events.

Background: Triple rule-out computed tomography angiography (CTA) provides imaging of the coronary arteries, pulmonary arteries, and thoracic aorta filled with contrast material (CM) to exclude or diagnose the pathologies of these three systems. Although dual rule-out adapted to exclude aortic and pulmonary pathologies. Iodinated CM may result in contrast-induced nephropathy, which lengthens hospital stay.

Introduction: The optimal revascularization strategy for patients with myocardial infarction (MI) and multivessel coronary artery disease (CAD) remains an area of research and debate. Fractional flow reserve (FFR)-guided complete revascularization (CR) by percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) has emerged as an alternative to traditional culprit-only PCI.

Objective: To investigate the outcomes of FFR-guided CR versus culprit-only PCI in patients with MI and multivessel CAD.

Background: Contrast-induced acute kidney injury (CI-AKI) is a known complication after coronary angiography (CAG) or percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Clinical evidence suggests that trimetazidine (TMZ), an anti-ischemic drug, may prevent CI-AKI. We aimed to evaluate the role of trimetazidine in preventing CI-AKI in patients with pre-existing renal dysfunction undergoing CAG or PCI.

Background: Contrast-induced nephropathy (CIN) defined as an acute kidney injury following the administration of iodinated contrast medium (CM). Hysterosalpingography (HSG) is a radiologic procedure used to investigate the shape and structure of the uterine cavity and the patency of the fallopian tubes in the evaluation of infertility. To date, there have been no reports evaluating the development of CIN after HSG procedure.

To assess the link between systemic immune-inflammation index (SII) and risk of major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE), contrast-induced nephropathy (CIN), and overall mortality in patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI). Electronic search of PubMed, EMBASE, Web of Science, and Scopus databases was done for observational studies with the data on the association of SII and outcomes, such as MACE, and CIN in adult (≥18 y) patients with AMI. A random-effects model was used, and the pooled effect sizes were expressed as relative risk (RR) with corresponding 95% confidence intervals (CI).
