Background: The baseline creatinine level is central in the KDIGO criteria of acute kidney injury (AKI), but baseline creatinine is often inconsistently defined or unavailable in AKI research. We examined the rate, characteristics, and 30-day mortality of AKI in five AKI cohorts created using different definitions of baseline creatinine. Methods: This nationwide cohort study included all individuals aged ≥18 in Denmark with a creatinine measurement in year 2017. Applying the KDIGO criteria, we created four AKI cohorts using four different baseline definitions (most recent, mean, or median value of outpatient creatinine 365-8 days before, or median value 90-8 days before if available otherwise median value 365-91 days before) and one AKI cohort not using a baseline value. AKI rate and the distribution of age, sex, baseline creatinine, and comorbidity was described for each AKI cohort, and the 30-day all-cause mortality was estimated using the Kaplan-Meier method. Results: The study included 2,095,850 adults with at least one creatinine measurement in 2017. The four different baseline definitions identified between 61,189 and 62,597 AKI episodes. The AKI rate in these four cohorts was 13-14 per 1,000 person-years, and 30-day all-cause mortality was 17-18%. The cohort created without using a baseline creatinine included 37,659 AKI episodes, corresponding to an AKI rate of 8.2 per 1,000 person-years, and a 30-day mortality of 23%. All five cohorts were similar regarding age, sex, and comorbidity. Conclusions: In a population-based setting with available outpatient baseline creatinine, different baseline creatinine definitions revealed comparable AKI cohorts, while the lack of a baseline creatinine when defining AKI led to a smaller AKI cohort with a higher mortality. These findings underscore the importance of availability and consistent use of an outpatient baseline creatinine, in particular in studies of community-acquired AKI.

ObjectivesIt is unknown whether preoperative use of ACE inhibitors (ACE-I) or angiotensin receptor blockers (ARBs) affects the risk of acute kidney injury (AKI) after colorectal cancer (CRC) surgery. We assessed the impact of preoperative ACE-I/ARB use on risk of AKI after CRC surgery.DesignObservational cohort study. Patients were divided into three exposure groups—current, former and non-users—through reimbursed prescriptions within 365 days before the surgery. AKI within 7 days after surgery was defined according to the current Kidney Disease Improving Global Outcome consensus criteria.SettingPopulation-based Danish medical databases.ParticipantsA total of 9932 patients undergoing incident CRC surgery during 2005–2014 in northern Denmark were included through the Danish Colorectal Cancer Group Database.Outcome measureWe computed cumulative incidence proportions (risk) of AKI with 95% CIs for current, former and non-users of ACE-I/ARB, including death as a competing risk. We compared current and former users with non-users by computing adjusted risk ratios (aRRs) using log-binomial regression adjusted for demographics, comorbidities and CRC-related characteristics. We stratified the analyses of ACE-I/ARB users to address any difference in impact within relevant subgroups.ResultsTwenty-one per cent were ACE-I/ARB current users, 6.4% former users and 72.3% non-users. The 7-day postoperative AKI risk for current, former and non-users was 26.4% (95% CI 24.6% to 28.3%), 25.2% (21.9% to 28.6%) and 17.8% (17.0% to 18.7%), respectively. The aRRs of AKI were 1.20 (1.09 to 1.32) and 1.16 (1.01 to 1.34) for current and former users, compared with non-users. The relative risk of AKI in current compared with non-users was consistent in all subgroups, except for higher aRR in patients with a history of hypertension.ConclusionsBeing a current or former user of ACE-I/ARBs is associated with an increased risk of postoperative AKI compared with non-users. Although it may not be a drug effect, users of ACE-I/ARBs should be considered a risk group for postoperative AKI.

9570 Background: Although cancer patients may be at increased risk for acute kidney injury (AKI), which could then reduce their likelihood of receiving optimal therapeutic management and supportive care, the occurrence of AKI among newly diagnosed cancer patients has not been well-described. Therefore, we examined the incidence of AKI within the first year after cancer diagnosis to estimate the magnitude of this risk and better understand which patients are at greatest risk. Methods: Using the population-based Danish Cancer Registry, we conducted a retrospective cohort study of 4,427 men and women from North Jutland, Denmark (population 500,000) diagnosed with cancer from 2002 to 2003 (non-melanoma skin cancer excluded). AKI was defined according to the Risk/ Injury/ Failure/ Loss/ End-stage-renal-disease (RIFLE) criteria. We included Risk or worse: at least a 1.5 times increase in serum creatinine (sCr) from baseline. SCr levels were obtained from the Regional Laboratory Database, which collects all biochemical analyses for hospital laboratories. Baseline sCr was defined as the lowest sCr in the year before cancer diagnosis. We compared this value to the highest sCr on record during the first year following cancer diagnosis to identify those who experienced an AKI. Results: Median age for the cohort was 68.6 years, 50.9% were men, and the most common cancer sites were lung (14.2%), breast (13.7%), prostate (9.8%), colon (9.6%), rectum (5.1%), and bladder (6.3%). During the first year, 973 (22.0%) members of the cohort experienced an AKI, corresponding to an overall incidence rate of 326 per 1,000 person-years (95% confidence interval (CI) 306–347). Incidence was highest among patients aged 80 years or older (531 per 1,000 person-years, 95% CI 464–606) and in those with cancer of the liver (1,221, 95%CI 676–2,205), pancreas (1,472, 95%CI 1,130–1,917), or kidney (1,254, 95%CI 974–1,616), or with multiple myeloma (855, 95%CI 538–1,356). Conclusions: To protect against AKI, we must first identify those at risk. Our study showed that over 20% of cancer patients may experience acute kidney injury in the first year after diagnosis. Older patients and those with cancer of the liver, pancreas, or kidney, or with multiple myeloma are especially at risk for AKI. [Table: see text]
