Postoperative acute kidney injury (AKI) is a serious complication that increases patient morbidity and mortality. However, few studies have evaluated the effect of laparoscopic surgery on postoperative AKI. This study compared the incidence of postoperative AKI between laparoscopic and open surgery in patients with colorectal cancer. This study retrospectively analyzed 3637 patients who underwent colorectal cancer surgery between June 2008 and February 2012. The patients were classified into laparoscopic (n = 987) and open (n = 2650) surgery groups. We performed multivariable regression analysis to assess the risk factors for AKI and propensity score matching analysis to compare the incidence of AKI between the two groups. We also assessed postoperative intensive care unit (ICU) admission, complications, hospital stay, and 1-year mortality. We observed no significant differences in the incidence of postoperative AKI between the two groups before (8.8% vs. 9.1%, p = 0.406) and after (8.8% vs. 7.7%, p = 0.406) matching. Laparoscopic surgery was not associated with AKI even after adjusting for intraoperative variables (adjusted odds ratio (OR): 1.17, 95% confidence interval (CI): 0.84–1.62, p = 0.355). Body mass index, diabetes mellitus, hypertension, and albumin were risk factors for AKI. ICU admission (0.6% vs. 2.5%, p = 0.001), complications (0.2% vs. 1.5%, p = 0.002), hospital stay (6.89 days vs. 8.61 days, p < 0.001), and 1-year mortality (0.1% vs. 0.9%, p = 0.021) were significantly better in the laparoscopic than in the open group. The incidence of postoperative AKI did not differ significantly between laparoscopic and open surgery. However, considering its better surgical outcomes, laparoscopic surgery may be recommended for patients with colorectal cancer.

The prognostic nutritional index (PNI) has been reported to be associated with postoperative complications and prognosis in cancer surgery. However, few studies have evaluated the association between preoperative PNI and postoperative acute kidney injury (AKI) in colorectal cancer patients. This study evaluated association of preoperative PNI and postoperative AKI in patients who underwent colorectal cancer surgery. This study retrospectively analyzed 3543 patients who underwent colorectal cancer surgery between June 2008 and February 2012. The patients were classified into four groups by the quartile of PNI: Q1 (≤43.79), Q2 (43.79–47.79), Q3 (47.79–51.62), and Q4 (≥51.62). Multivariate regression analysis was performed to assess the risk factors for AKI and 1-year mortality. AKI was defined according to Kidney Disease Improving Global Outcomes classification (KDIGO) criteria. Additionally, we assessed surgical outcomes such as hospital stay, ICU admission, and postoperative complications. The incidence of postoperative AKI tended to increase in the Q1 group (13.4%, 9.2%, 9.4%, 8.8%). In the multivariate analysis, high preoperative PNI was significantly associated with low risk of postoperative AKI (adjusted odds ratio [OR]: 0.96, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.93–0.99, p = 0.003) and low 1-year mortality (OR: 0.92, 95% CI: 0.86–0.98, p = 0.011). Male sex, body mass index, diabetes mellitus, and hypertension were risk factors for AKI. The Q1 (≤43.79) group had poor surgical outcomes, such as postoperative AKI (OR: 1.52, 95% CI: 1.18–1.95, p = 0.001), higher rates of ICU admission (OR: 3.13, 95% CI: 1.82–5.39, p < 0.001) and higher overall mortality (OR: 3.81, 95% CI: 1.86–7.79, p < 0.001). In conclusion, low preoperative PNI levels, especially in the Q1 (≤43.79), were significantly associated with postoperative AKI and surgical outcomes, such as hospital stay, postoperative ICU admission, and mortality.

Background: Postoperative Acute Kidney Injury (AKI) is a common and serious complication associated with significant morbidity and mortality. While several pre- and intra-operative risk factors for AKI have been recognized in cardiac surgery patients, relatively few data are available regarding the incidence and risk factors for perioperative AKI in other surgical operations. The aim of the present study was to determine the risk factors for perioperative AKI in patients undergoing major abdominal surgery. Methods: This was a prospective, observational study of patients undergoing major abdominal surgery in a tertiary care center. Postoperative AKI was diagnosed according to the Acute Kidney Injury Network criteria within 48 h after surgery. Patients with chronic kidney disease stage IV or V were excluded. Logistic regression analysis was used to evaluate the association between perioperative factors and the risk of developing postoperative AKI. Results: Eleven out of 61 patients developed postoperative AKI. Four intra-operative variables were identified as predictors of AKI: intra-operative blood loss (p = 0.002), transfusion of fresh frozen plasma (p = 0.004) and red blood cells (p = 0.038), as well as high chloride load (p = 0.033, cut-off value > 500 mEq). Multivariate analysis demonstrated an independent association between AKI development and preoperative albuminuria, defined as a urinary Albumin to Creatinine ratio ≥ 30 mg·g−1 (OR = 6.88, 95% CI: 1.43–33.04, p = 0.016) as well as perioperative chloride load > 500 mEq (OR = 6.87, 95% CI: 1.46–32.4, p = 0.015). Conclusion: Preoperative albuminuria, as well as a high intraoperative chloride load, were identified as predictors of postoperative AKI in patients undergoing major abdominal surgery.

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.

Abstract Introduction The effect of valve type on outcomes in transfemoral transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TF-TAVR) has recently been subject of debate. We investigate outcomes of patients treated with balloon-expanding (BE) vs. self-expanding (SE) valves in in a cohort of all these procedures performed in Germany in 2018. Methods All patients receiving TF-TAVR with either BE (N = 9,882) or SE (N = 7,413) valves in Germany in 2018 were identified. In-hospital outcomes were analyzed for the endpoints in-hospital mortality, major bleeding, stroke, acute kidney injury, postoperative delirium, permanent pacemaker implantation, mechanical ventilation > 48 h, length of hospital stay, and reimbursement. Since patients were not randomized to the two treatment options, logistic or linear regression models were used with 22 baseline patient characteristics and center-specific variables as potential confounders. As a sensitivity analysis, the same confounding factors were taken into account using the propensity score methods (inverse probability of treatment weighting). Results Baseline characteristics differed substantially, with higher EuroSCORE (p < 0.001), age (p < 0.001) and rate of female sex (p < 0.001) in SE treated patients. After risk adjustment, no marked differences in outcomes were found for in-hospital mortality [risk adjusted odds ratio (aOR) for SE instead of BE 0.94 (96% CI 0.76;1.17), p = 0.617] major bleeding [aOR 0.91 (0.73;1.14), p = 0.400], stroke [aOR 1.13 (0.88;1.46), p = 0.347], acute kidney injury [OR 0.97 (0.85;1.10), p = 0.621], postoperative delirium [aOR 1.09 (0.96;1.24), p = 0.184], mechanical ventilation > 48 h [aOR 0.98 (0.77;1.25), p = 0.893], length of hospital stay (risk adjusted difference in days of hospitalization (SE instead of BE): − 0.05 [− 0.34;0.25], p = 0.762) and reimbursement [risk adjusted difference in reimbursement (SE instead of BE): − €72 (− €291;€147), p = 0.519)] There is, however, an increased risk of PPI for SE valves (aOR 1.27 [1.15;1.41], p < 0.001). Similar results were found after application of propensity score adjustment. Conclusions We find broadly equivalent outcomes in contemporary TF-TAVR procedures, regardless of the valve type used. Incidence of major complications is very low for both types of valve.

Introduction. Detecting acute kidney injury (AKI) in the first days of hospitalization could prevent potentially fatal complications. However, epidemiological data are scarce, especially on nonsurgical patients.Objectives. To determine the incidence and risk factors associated with AKI within five days of hospitalization (EAKI).Methods. Prospective cohort of patients hospitalized in the Internal Medicine Department.Results. A total of 16% of 400 patients developed EAKI. The associated risk factors were prehospital treatment with nephrotoxic drugs (2.21 OR; 95% CI 1.12–4.36,p=0.022), chronic kidney disease (CKD) in stages 3 to 5 (3.56 OR; 95% CI 1.55–8.18,p<0.003), and venous thromboembolism (VTE) at admission (5.05 OR; 95% CI 1.59–16.0,p<0.006). The median length of hospital stay was higher among patients who developed EAKI (8 [IQR 5–14] versus 6 [IQR 4–10],p=0.008) and was associated with an increased requirement for dialysis (4.87 OR 95% CI 2.54 to 8.97,p<0.001) and in-hospital death (3.45 OR; 95% CI 2.18 to 5.48,p<0.001).Conclusions. The incidence of EAKI in nonsurgical patients is similar to the worldwide incidence of AKI. The risk factors included CKD from stage 3 onwards, prehospital treatment with nephrotoxic drugs, and VTE at admission. EAKI is associated with prolonged hospital stay, increased mortality rate, and dialysis requirement.

Abstract Background and Aims In 2020, SARS-CoV-2 pandemic had a devastating impact on individuals and on national health systems worldwide. Although being primarily a lung disease, COVID-19-associated systemic inflammation and activation of coagulation/complement cascades lead to multiple organ dysfunction including Acute Kidney Injury (AKI). Our aim is to evaluate AKI prevalence and mortality in hospitalized patients during COVID-19 pandemic in a 500-bed University Hospital. Method Observational study on 945 COVID-19 patients (March-May 2020). Data collection from Board Hospital Discharge and serum creatinine (Lab database). AKI stratification in accordance to KDIGO criteria and evaluation of outcome in the different subgroups. The same methodology was adopted to assess AKI prevalence and outcome in 2018-2019. Results 351/945 (37.14%) of all hospital admissions for COVID-19 showed AKI further sub-classified as follows: 173 (18.3%) stage 1, 112 (11.9%) stage 2 and 66 (6.9%) stage 3: the control NO AKI group was 594/945 (62.86%). COVID-associated AKI prevalence was higher than that observed in 2018 (total AKI 17.9%, stage 1 10.7%, stage 2 4.5%, stage 3 2.7%) and 2019 (total AKI 17.2%, stage 1 10.1%, stage 2 4.5%, stage 3 2.6%). During COVID-19 pandemic, in-hospital mortality was 27% for NO AKI group, 28% for total AKI group, further subdivided 24% for stage 1, 45% for stage 2 and 42% for stage 3 group, respectively. Mortality was different from that observed during 2018 (NO AKI 3.77%, total AKI 15.2%, stage 1 9.69%, stage 2 17.24%, stage 3 18.9%) and 2019 (NO AKI 3.56%, total AKI 18.35%, stage 1 10.6%, stage 2 20.1%, stage 3 24.3%). In COVID-19 patients, mean age of NO AKI group was 64.6 ys vs. 71.7 ys of total AKI group divided in 71.6 ys for stage 1, 74.3 ys for stage 2 and 67.9 ys for stage 3, respectively. Mean eGFR at admission was 74.2 ml/min for NO AKI group, 61.3 ml/min for total AKI group divided in 64.3 ml/min for stage 1, 57.8 ml/min for stage 2 and 52.5 ml/min for stage 3. Mean serum creatinine at admission was 1.17 mg/dl in NO AKI group, 1.43 mg/dl for total AKI group divided in1.22 mg/dl for stage 1, 1.4 mg/dl for stage 2 and 2.25 mg/dl for stage 3. Among evaluated comorbidities, only diabetes (p=0,048) and cognitive impairment (p=0,001) were associated with a significant increased risk for AKI development. ICU admission rate was 5% for NO AKI group and 18% for total AKI group divided in 14% for stage 1, 22% for stage 2 and 44% for stage 3. Mean length of hospital stay for NO AKI group was 7.22 days vs 15.08 days for total AKI group divided in 13.67 for stage 1, 15.83 for stage 2 and 21.82 for stage 3. Of note, all different therapies administered to COVID-19 patients did not correlate with AKI incidence. Mean eGFR at discharge was 76 ml/min for NO AKI group vs 66 ml/min for total AKI group divided in 68.7 ml/min for stage 1, 59.3 ml/min for stage 2 and 59.3 ml/min for stage 3. Mean serum creatinine at discharge was 1.14 mg/dl for NO AKI group vs 1.45 mg/dl for total AKI group divided in 1.28 mg/dl for stage 1, 1.58 mg/dl for stage 2 and 2.05 mg/dl for stage 3. Conclusion COVID-19 pandemic is associated with an increased AKI prevalence in hospitalized patients (2-fold increase in all KDIGO stages). AKI associated with an increased risk of mortality: of note, AKI stage2-3 had a strong impact on mortality in comparison to NO AKI group (OR 2.59 and 2.11, respectively). The presence of eGFR &gt;60 ml/min and serum creatinine &lt; 1.2 mg/dl at admission were associated with a lower risk of AKI development: reduced eGFR levels were observed at discharge particularly in AKI stage 2-3. The length of hospital stay and risk of ICU admission depended on AKI incidence and severity. COVID-19 lead to an increased burden for Nephrologists due to increased AKI prevalence: a nephrological follow-up is needed to avoid progression from AKI to chronic kidney disease (CKD).

Abstract Background Surgery remains the cornerstone of treatment for esophageal cancer. Esophagectomy serves as an exemplar of major operative trauma, yet there is a paucity of literature regarding postoperative renal outcomes. We aimed to study the incidence of acute kidney injury (AKI) after esophageal cancer surgery, and to determine independent risk factors for postoperative renal impairment. Methods Consecutive patients undergoing potentially curative surgery for esophageal cancer from 2006–2016 were studied. AKI was defined according to AKIN criteria. Complications were recorded prospectively and comprehensive complications index (CCI) was determined. Multivariate linear and logistic regression were performed to determine factors independently predictive of postoperative AKI. Results 661 patients (72.9% male), a mean age of 63.5 ± 9.7 years, underwent surgery (2-stage esophagectomy, 307 [46.4%]; 3-stage esophagectomy, 117 [17.7%]; transhiatal esophagectomy, 112 [16.9%]; extended total gastrectomy, 122 [18.5%)], pharyngolaryngoesophagectomy, 3 [0.5%]), with a CCI of 21.3 ± 19.7 and an in-hospital mortality of 1.4%. Baseline prevalence of chronic kidney disease was 1.8%. Postoperative AKI occurred in 174 (26.3%) patients, with AKIN 1, 2 and 3 in 122 (18.5%), 41 (6.2%) and 11 (1.7%), respectively. Of these, 5 (2.9%) required renal replacement therapy during admission. Preoperatively, greater BMI (P = 0.02, OR 1.05 [95% CI 1.01–1.10]), male sex (P = 0.05, OR 1.68 [1.01–2.78]), age (P = 0.001, OR 1.04 [1.02–1.07]), hypertension (P = 0.005, OR 1.85 [1.20–2.84]), and transthoracic approach (P = 0.01, OR 1.82 [1.14–2.89]) independently predicted postoperative AKI. After surgery, while CCI was predictive of AKI on univariable analysis (P < 0.001 OR 1.03 [1.02–1.04]), atrial fibrillation (P = 0.001 OR 3.25 [1.57–6.72]) and prolonged intubation (P = 0.016 OR 3.61 [1.28–10.21]) were independently associated with AKI on multivariable logistic regression. On multivariable linear regression, neoadjuvant treatment (surgery only, 13.5 ± 35.8%; chemotherapy, 25.3 ± 42.2%; chemoradiation 18.7 ± 31.9%, P = 0.02), transthoracic approach (P = 0.006), and baseline BMI (P = 0.02) predicted postoperative %Δcreatinine. Postoperative AKI did not impact survival outcome on univariable or multivariable analysis. Conclusion Major AKI is rare after esophageal cancer surgery, with risk independently associated with increasing age, features of the metabolic syndrome, and postoperative morbidity.

Abstract Introduction Single-incision laparoscopic surgery (SILS) aims to minimize the surgical access trauma by reducing the number of abdominal incisions to a single site, potentially offering better cosmetic results and decreased postoperative pain. In this study, we compare the results of SILS ileocolic resection for Crohn’s disease (CD) to conventional laparoscopy and open surgery using a propensity score–matched analysis in a retrospective national multicentre study. Methods All consecutive patients undergoing elective SILS ileocaecal or redo ileocolic resection for primary and recurrent CD from 1 June 2018 to 31 May 2019 were included. Patients were matched 1:1:1 with laparoscopy and open surgery according to perianal disease, recurrent disease, penetrating phenotype of CD, history of previous abdominal surgery, preoperative medical treatment with steroids and anti-TNF. Postoperative morbidity within 30 days of surgery was the primary endpoint. Results Fifty-eight patients were included in each group, for a total of 174 patients. The conversion rate for SILS and laparoscopy was 10.3% and 12%, respectively, with no difference in the incidence of postoperative complications (13.8% and 12%, p = 0.77), whilst open surgery demonstrated a worse morbidity profile, with a complication rate of 25.9% (p < 0.0001). Median length of hospital stay following SILS ileocolic resection was 5 days, significantly shorter compared to 7 days for laparoscopy and 9 for open surgery (p < 0.0001). Conclusions SILS ileocolonic resection for CD demonstrated a comparable morbidity profile compared to laparoscopy in selected patients, with a reduced length of postoperative hospital stay.

Postoperative acute kidney injury (AKI) is still a concern in partial nephrectomy (PN), even with the development of minimally invasive technique. We aimed to compare AKI incidence between patients with and without diabetes mellitus (DM) and to determine the predictive factors for postoperative AKI. This case-matched retrospective study included 884 patients with preoperative creatinine levels ≤1.4 mg/dL who underwent laparoscopic or robot-assisted laparoscopic PN between December 2005 and May 2018. Propensity score matching was employed to match patients with and without DM in a 1:3 ratio (101 and 303 patients, respectively). Of 884 patients, 20.4% had postoperative AKI. After propensity score matching, the incidence of postoperative AKI in DM and non-DM patients was 30.7% and 14.9%, respectively (P < 0.001). In multivariate analysis, male sex and warm ischemia time (WIT) >25 min were significantly associated with postoperative AKI in patients with and without DM. In patients with DM, hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) >7% was a predictive factor for AKI, odds ratio (OR) = 4.59 (95% CI, 1.47–14.36). In conclusion, DM increased the risk of AKI after minimally invasive PN; male sex, longer WIT, and elevated HbA1c were independent risk factors for AKI in patients with DM.

AbstractThe objective of this study was to calculate the incidence, severity, and risk factors for acute kidney injury (AKI) in a tertiary care pediatric intensive care unit (PICU). Also, to assess the impact of AKI and its varying severity on mortality and length of hospital and PICU stays. A prospective observational study was performed in children between 1 month and 12 years of age admitted to the PICU between July 1, 2013, and July 31, 2014 (13 months). The change in creatinine clearance was considered to diagnose and stage AKI according to pediatric risk, injury, failure, loss, and end-stage renal disease criteria. The risk factors for AKI and its impact on PICU stay, hospital stay, and mortality were evaluated. Of the total 220 patients enrolled in the study, 161 (73.2%) developed AKI, and 59 cases without AKI served as the “no AKI” (control) group. Majority (57.1%) of children with AKI had Failure grade of AKI, whereas 26.1% had Risk grade and 16.8% had Injury grade of AKI. Infancy (p = 0.000), hypovolemia (p = 0.005), shock (p = 0.008), and sepsis (p = 0.022) were found to be significant risk factors for AKI. Mortality, PICU stay, and hospital stay were comparable in children with and without AKI as well as between the various grades of renal injury (i.e., Failure, Risk, and Injury). An exceedingly high incidence of AKI, especially of the severe Failure grade was observed in critically ill children. Infancy and frequent PICU occurrences such as sepsis, hypovolemia, and shock predisposed to AKI.
