Objective: We aimed to determine the incidence and risk of acute kidney injury (AKI) in patients after cardiac surgery, and to assess the effects of less invasive cardiac surgery on the prevention of postoperative AKI.
Methods: We retrospectively analyzed perioperative parameters in patients who underwent cardiac surgery. Risk factors for AKI were determined using univariate and multiple logistic regression models. The incidence of postoperative AKI was also compared between conventional and minimally invasive cardiac surgeries.
Results: Among 126 patients, 36 (28.6%) who developed postoperative AKI stayed significantly longer in the intensive care unit(ICU), required prolonged postoperative ventilation and had a higher frequency of renal replacement therapy. Multivariate analysis revealed cardio-pulmonary bypass (CPB) duration and red blood cell transfusion as independent risk factors for postoperative AKI. The incidence of postoperative AKI was significantly lower after off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting than conventional coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG)(0% versus 11%, p=0.025), and after minimally invasive cardiac surgery compared with conventional valve surgery( 4% versus 44%, p=0.01) Conclusion:The duration of CPB and red blood cell transfusion were considered independent factors for the development of postoperative AKI. Less invasive cardiac surgeries might protect against postoperative AKI.

Background: Ondansetron is widely used for prophylaxis of postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV) after general anesthesia. While previous studies have emphasized its early use, the effects of ondansetron in intensive care unit (ICU) patients following cardiac surgery remain unclear. This study investigates the association between postoperative ondansetron exposure and the risk of mortality, acute kidney injury (AKI), and postoperative atrial fibrillation (POAF) in ICU patients after cardiac surgery.

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.

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.

Background: Postoperative acute kidney injury (AKI) and chronic kidney disease (CKD) following pediatric liver transplantation (PLT) have not been comprehensively studied. This study aimed to evaluate the correlation between AKI and both 1-year CKD and mortality.
Methods: This retrospective study included 132 children aged between 3 months and 12 years who underwent PLT between 2017 and 2021.

Haemolysis occurring during cardiac surgery with cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) is assumed to be a risk factor for postoperative acute kidney injury (AKI). Plasma alpha-1 microglobulin (A1M) may have a protective role as haem scavenger. The aim of this study was to evaluate the association between AKI and the degree of haemolysis and the course of A1M concentrations during cardiac surgery, respectively.
