Predictive value of post-procedural hyponatremia on contrast-induced nephropathy in patients who underwent coronary angiography or percutaneous coronary intervention

Striving for Socioeconomic Equity in Ischemic Stroke Care: Imaging and Acute Treatment Utilization From a Comprehensive Stroke Center

“…Although a sex-based neuroimaging disparity was not found by others [22], this finding, along with less CTA utilization in patients with diabetes mellitus, renal insufficiency, and age ! 80 years, may be because of previous observations that patients with these demographics and comorbidities are at increased risk for contrast-induced nephropathy [39,40]. Nonetheless, despite lower CTA utilization, we found no significant differences in treatment utilization on the basis of sex, in contrast to others [16].…”

Dapagliflozin Attenuates Contrast-induced Acute Kidney Injury by Regulating the HIF-1α/HE4/NF-κB Pathway

“…With the pervasive use of radiocontrast agents, CI-AKI has become an increasingly common iatrogenic AKI. 34 , 35 Besides conventional hydration methods have been clinically used to prevent CI-AKI, exploring new and effective strategies is still very important. Although the pathophysiological mechanisms of CI-AKI are not completely understood, studies have shown that contrast agents can promote the development and progression of CI-AKI by inducing hypoxic injury, inflammation, and direct toxicity in renal tubular epithelial cells, which significantly increases the levels of renal injury biomarkers, including Scr and BUN.…”

Old woman with Sheehan's syndrome suffered severe hyponatremia following percutaneous coronary intervention: a case report and review of literature

“…Contrast agents have been implicated in inducing hyponatremia, particularly in women ( 15 – 18 ). Following administration, the contrast agents elevate the osmotic pressure of extracellular fluid, leading to passive water transfer of intracellular to extracellular compartments and resultant diluted hyponatremia ( 15 , 16 ).…”
