Background: Coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) provides superior long-term outcomes to percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) for complex multivessel coronary artery disease (CAD). People with chronic kidney disease (CKD) have increased prevalence of multivessel CAD, but also increased surgical risk. We investigated whether CKD predicted real-world use of CABG, versus PCI, in patients revascularized for acute coronary syndrome (ACS).
Methods: Embase, MEDLINE, Scopus and CENTRAL were searched to identify articles referring to ACS and invasive coronary intervention in high-income countries (2012 - 2023). Articles were included if CABG rates were reported in ACS patients with and without CKD receiving revascularization. CKD was defined as an estimated glomerular filtration rate < 60 mL/min/1.73 m; proxy definitions were accepted. Random effect meta-analyses were used to determine the average effect of CKD on odds of CABG, stratified by ACS type and dialysis use.
Results: Searches generated 15,138 articles, of which 13 observational studies were included (n = 1,682,207). Amongst revascularized ACS patients, those with CKD were more likely to receive CABG than those without (pooled odds ratio (OR) = 1.50 (95% confidence interval (CI) = 1.30 - 1.72). This association was stronger following ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) than non-ST-elevation ACS (NSTE-ACS) (OR: 1.54 (95% CI: 1.23 - 1.93)) versus 1.16 (1.10 - 1.23), respectively).
Conclusions: In high-income countries, revascularized ACS patients with CKD receive CABG (versus PCI) more frequently than those without kidney disease. However, accounting for lower use of coronary angiography in the CKD population removed this association following NSTE-ACS. Greater use of invasive angiography in those with NSTE-ACS and CKD might therefore increase access to revascularization, and thereby improve outcomes.

Background: Trimethylamine N-oxide (TMAO) is a gut microbial metabolite derived from dietary l-carnitine and choline. High plasma TMAO levels are associated with cardiovascular disease and overall mortality, but little is known about the associations of TMAO and related metabolites with the risk of kidney function decline among patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD).
Methods: We prospectively followed 152 nondialysis patients with CKD stages 3-5 and measured plasma TMAO and related metabolites (trimethylamine [TMA], choline, carnitine, and γ-butyrobetaine) via liquid chromatography‒mass spectrometry.

Background: In septic shock, the classic fluid resuscitation strategy can lead to a potentially harmful positive fluid balance. This multicenter, randomized, single-blind, parallel, controlled pilot study assessed the effectiveness of a restrictive fluid strategy aiming to limit daily volume.
Methods: Patients 18-85 years' old admitted to the ICU department of three French hospitals were eligible for inclusion if they had septic shock and were in the first 24 h of vasopressor infusion.

Hypertension, cardiovascular disease and kidney failure are associated with persistent hyperglycaemia and the subsequent development of nephropathy in people with diabetes. Diabetic nephropathy is associated with widespread vascular disease affecting both the kidney and the heart from an early stage. However, the risk of diabetic nephropathy in people with type 1 diabetes is strongly genetically determined, as documented in familial transmission studies.

Background: Here, we aim to develop and validate a viable prognostic nomogram model for predicting a stone-free rate of kidney stones patients based on retrospective cohort analysis.
Methods: This is a retrospective study that obtained a continuous cohort from the databases of two hospitals (General Hospital of Southern Theater Command, and Guangdong Second Provincial General Hospital), including 522 patients with kidney stones who underwent Endoscopic Combined Intrarenal Surgery (ECIRS) from January 2015 to December 2022.The characteristics of the primary cohort between the SF (stone-free) and SR (stone residue) groups were identified using single factor and multivariate logistic regression analyses.

Background: Predicting mortality in sepsis-related acute kidney injury facilitates early data-driven treatment decisions. Machine learning is predicting mortality in S-AKI in a growing number of studies. Therefore, we conducted this systematic review and meta-analysis to investigate the predictive value of machine learning for mortality in patients with septic acute kidney injury.
