ABSTRACT: Background
Contrast-induced acute kidney injury (CI-AKI) is a major adverse effect caused by intravascular administration of iodinated contrast medium. Whether there is a difference in CI-AKI incidence between iso-osmolar (IOCM) and low-osmolar contrast media (LOCM) among diabetic patients is controversial.Methods
Randomized controlled trials comparing the nephrotoxic effects between IOCM and LOCM in diabetic patients with or without CKD (eGFR< 60 ml/min/1.73 m2) were included in the analysis. The incidence of CI-AKI was defined as an initial increase in serum creatinine (SCr) concentration of at least 0.5 mg/dl or a rise in creatinine of 25% from baseline.Results
A total of 2190 patients were included, among whom 1122 patients received IOCM and 1068 rece
