Urinary cystatin C and acute kidney injury after cardiac surgery.

ABSTRACT: Acute kidney injury (AKI) is common after cardiac surgery and is associated with adverse patient outcomes. Urinary cystatin C (CysC) level is a biomarker of proximal tubule function and may increase earlier in AKI than serum creatinine level.Prospective cohort study.The TRIBE AKI (Translational Research Investigating Biomarker Endpoints in AKI) Consortium prospectively enrolled 1,203 adults and 299 children and adolescents at 8 institutions in 2007-2009.Urinary CysC (in milligrams per liter) within the first 12 hours after surgery.Serum creatinine-based AKI was defined as AKI Network stage 1 (mild AKI) and doubling of serum creatinine from the preoperative value or need for dialysis during hospitalization (severe AKI).Analyses were adjusted for characteristics used clinically for AKI risk stratification, including age, sex, race, estimated glomerular filtration rate, diabetes, hypertension, heart failure, nonelective surgery, cardiac catheterization within 72 hours, type of surgery, myocardial infarction, and cardiopulmonary bypass time longer than 120 minutes.Urinary CysC level measured in the early postoperative period (0-6 and 6-12 hours postoperatively) correlated with both mild and severe AKI in adults and children. However, after analyses were adjusted for other factors, the effect was attenuated for both forms of AKI in both cohorts.Limited numbers of patients with severe AKI and in-hospital dialysis treatment.Urinary CysC values are not associated significantly with the development of AKI after cardiac surgery in adults and children.

Project description:Objectives: Secretion of extracellular vesicles (EV) and associated micro-RNAs (miR) is altered during cellular stress and may serve as biomarkers of organ injury. We hypothesized that measuring changes in urinary levels of EV and miR will predict the onset of acute kidney injury in cardiac surgery patients. Design: Predictive accuracy biomarker study performed in the cohort of the REVAKI-2 trial Setting: Single center ICU between September 2015 and September 2018 Interventions: Intravenous sildenafil citrate 12.5 mg kg-1 over 150 min or dextrose 5% at the commencement of surgery. Measurements and main results: Urine samples were collected before and 24 hours after the procedure from 93 cardiac surgery patients. Urine EV concentrations and size distribution were assessed using NanoSight. EV derivation and levels were measured using flow cytometry. Samples from 10 selected patients were sequenced to detect differentially expressed miR. Verification was performed with advanced TaqMan assays in samples from all patients. Urine EV concentrations significantly increased in patients with AKI after surgery, with the percentage of EV positive for aquaporin-2 and β1-integrin also increasing. Pre surgery podocalyxin-positive EV were significantly lower, and β1-integrin EV werehigher in patients with AKI. The levels of the former correlated with the severity of theinjury. miR-125a-5p was expressed at higher levels in urine from patients with AKI stage 2/3. Levels of miR-10a-5p decreased after surgery in AKI patients; its levels correlated with the severity of the injury. Preoperative levels of podocalyxin EVs and miR-125a-5p had moderate AKI predictive value and, in a logistic model together with ICU lactate levels, offered good (AUC = 80.9%) AKI prediction. Conclusions: Lower levels of podocalyxin-positive EV at baseline predict the severity of post-surgery AKI. Urine EV concentrations and miR expression offer excellent predictive accuracy when combined with commonly measured biomarkers.
