ABSTRACT
Objective:To observe the incidence and risk factors of acute kidney injury (AKI) in patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI), and explore the effect of AKI on the adverse cardiovascular events during hospitalization.Methods:The clinical data of 1 286 first-episode patients with AMI from December 2014 to December 2017 in Xuanwu Hospital, Capital Medical University were retrospectively analyzed. The basic information, laboratory test results and used drug were collected, the incidences of AKI and adverse cardiovascular events during hospitalization were recorded.Results:Among 1 286 patients with AMI, 113 cases had AKI, the incidence of AKI was 8.79%. There were statistical differences in gender composition, age, Killip classification>1 grade, hypertension, diabetes, smoking history, left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF)<56%, baseline estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR)<71.5 ml/(min·1.73 m 2), global registry of acute coronary events score (GRACE score) ≥176 scores, hemoglobin<128 g/L, interleukin-6 (IL-6) ≥35.74 ng/L, brain natriuretic peptide (BNP) ≥981 ng/L, thrombolysis in myocardial infarction score (TIMI score) ≥5 scores, high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP) ≥8.44 mg/L, serum creatinine at admission ≥90 μmol/L, heart rate ≥75 times/min and contrast agent dosage/eGFR ≥1.92 between patients with AKI and patients without AKI ( P<0.01 or<0.05). Multivariate Logistic regression analysis result showed that diabetes, LVEF<56%, baseline eGFR< 71.5 ml/(min·1.73 m 2) and hs-CRP ≥8.44 mg/L were the independent risk factors of AKI in patients with AMI ( OR = 2.99, 0.38, 0.30 and 2.48; 95% CI 1.31 to 6.84, 0.16 to 0.88, 0.12 to 0.78 and 1.07 to 5.75; P = 0.010, 0.024, 0.013 and 0.035). The hospital mortality, incidence of adverse cardiovascular events during hospitalization and length of hospital stay in patients with AKI were significantly higher than those in patients without AKI: 11.50% (13/113) vs. 2.39% (28/1 173), 22.12% (25/113) vs. 8.40% (99/1 173) and (12±8) d vs. (10±6) d, and there were statistical differences ( P<0.01). Multivariate Logistic regression analysis result showed that AKI was the independent risk factors of death and adverse cardiovascular events during hospitalization in patients with AMI ( OR = 5.32 and 3.08, 95% CI 2.67 to 10.59 and 1.89 to 5.03, P<0.01). Conclusions:The incidence of AKI is high in patients with AMI, and previous diabetes history, LVEF<56%, eGFR<71.5 ml/(min·1.73 m 2), hs-CRP≥8.44 mg/L are the independent risk factors of AKI in patients with AMI. The occurrence of AKI after AMI can increase incidence of adverse cardiovascular events during hospitalization and hospital mortality, and prolong the hospital stay.
