Plasma presepsin for mortality prediction in patients with sepsis-associated acute kidney injury requiring continuous kidney replacement therapy.

ABSTRACT:

Background

The reliability of presepsin as a biomarker of sepsis may be reduced in patients with acute kidney injury (AKI) requiring continuous kidney replacement therapy (CKRT). This study analyzed the utility of plasma presepsin values in predicting mortality in patients with AKI requiring CKRT, particularly those with sepsis-associated AKI.

Methods

This single-center retrospective study included 57 patients who underwent CKRT, with plasma presepsin measurements, from April 2022 to March 2023; 35 had sepsis-associated AKI. The predictive values of plasma presepsin, as well as Acute Physiology and Chronic Health Evaluation II (APACHE II) and Sequential Organ Failure Assessment (SOFA) scores, for 28-day mortality were analyzed using receiver operating characteristic curves. Multivariate Cox regression analysis was performed to identify risk factors for 28-day mortality in the sepsis-associated AKI subgroup.

Results

Overall, plasma presepsin showed a lower area under the curve value (0.636; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.491-0.781) than the APACHE II (0.663; 95% CI, 0.521-0.804) and SOFA (0.731; 95% CI, 0.599-0.863) scores did. However, in sepsis-associated AKI, the area under the curve increased to 0.799 (95% CI, 0.653-0.946), which was higher than that of the APACHE II (0.638; 95% CI, 0.450-0.826) and SOFA (0.697; 95% CI, 0.519-0.875) scores. In the multivariate Cox regression analysis, a high presepsin level was an independent risk factor for 28-day mortality in sepsis-associated AKI (hazard ratio, 3.437; p = 0.03).

Conclusion

Presepsin is a potential prognostic marker in patients with sepsis-associated AKI requiring CKRT.

Project description:BackgroundPrevious studies reported that patients with acute kidney injury (AKI) requiring continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT) after cardiac surgery were at a higher risk of postoperative mortality. However, the impact of AKI and CRRT on long-term mortality has not yet been identified. Therefore, we investigated whether postoperative AKI requiring CRRT was associated with one-year all-cause mortality after coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG).MethodsFor this population-based cohort study, we analyzed data from the National Health Insurance Service database in South Korea. The cohort included all adult patients diagnosed with ischemic heart disease who underwent isolated CABG between January 2012 and December 2017.ResultsA total of 15,115 patients were included in the analysis, and 214 patients (1.4%) required CRRT for AKI after CABG during hospitalization. They received CRRT at 3.1 ± 8.5 days after CABG, for 3.1 ± 7.8 days. On multivariable Cox regression, the risk of 1-year all-cause mortality in patients who underwent CRRT was 7.69-fold higher. Additionally, on multivariable Cox regression, the 30-day and 90-day mortality after CABG in patients who underwent CRRT were 18.20-fold and 20.21-fold higher than the normal value, respectively. Newly diagnosed chronic kidney disease (CKD) requiring renal replacement therapy (RRT) 1 year after CABG in patients who underwent CRRT was 2.50-fold higher. In the generalized log-linear Poisson model, the length of hospital stay (LOS) in patients who underwent CRRT was 5% longer.ConclusionsThis population-based cohort study showed that postoperative AKI requiring CRRT was associated with a higher 1-year all-cause mortality after CABG. Furthermore, it was associated with a higher rate of 30-day and 90-day mortality, longer LOS, and higher rate of CKD requiring RRT 1 year after CABG. Our results suggest that CRRT-associated AKI after CABG may be associated with an increased risk of mortality; hence, there should be interventions in these patients after hospital discharge.
