Contrast-Induced Nephropathy in Patients With ST Elevation Myocardial Infarction Treated With Primary Percutaneous Coronary Intervention

Abstract: We assessed the relationship between contrast-induced nephropathy (CIN) and SYNTAX score (SS) and serum uric acid (SUA) levels in patients with ST elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). A total of 835 STEMI patients in whom primary percutaneous coronary intervention was performed in our cardiology clinic were included in this study (615 male, 220 female; mean age 58.1 ± 12.2 years). The patients were divided into 2 groups (CIN and non-CIN). Contrast-induced nephropathy was observed in 9.6% (80) of patients; … Show more

“…Hyperuricemia is characterized by inhibited nitric oxide system, activation of the local rennin-angiotensin system, pro-inflammatory and proliferative actions and enhanced synthesis of reactive oxygen species with increased oxidative stress and consequent renal dysfunction [15,16]. These effects of hyperuricemia should be more evident in patients with chronic kidney disease, in which there is a loss of nephron units with a poor residual renal function more vulnerable to external insults.…”

“…Perhaps a novel scoring system combining these parameters and the CHA 2 DS 2 -VASc score may be more useful for prediction of CIN. In a study conducted with STEMI patients, the SYNTAX score was also useful for prediction of CIN [24]. However, SYNTAX is an angiographic scoring system.…”

“…Several studies explored the effect of serum uric acid (SUA) on CI-AKI among high-risk patients such as STEMI undergoing primary PCI. Elbasan et al showed that SUA was associated with CI-AKI in STEMI patients undergoing pPCI (mean SUA=6.2±0.9 mg/dL, 95% CI, 1.877-3.236; p=0.002)[15]. In another study, Mendi MA et al…”

“…In addition, only a limited number of studies reported that hyperuricemia was an independent predictor of CI-AKI in STEMI patients undergoing pPCI. Moreover, it was uncertain about the role of uric acid in the long-term outcome [15][16][17].…”
