    Abstract: Background. Contrast-associated acute kidney injury (CA-AKI) is a common complication in patients undergoing coronary angiography (CAG). However, few studies demonstrate the association between the prognosis and developed CA-AKI in the different periods after the operation. Methods. We retrospectively enrolled 3206 patients with preoperative serum creatinine (Scr) and at least twice SCr measurement after CAG. CA-AKI was defined as an increase ≥50% or ≥0.3 mg/dL from baseline in the 72 hours after the procedure. Early CA-AKI was defined as having the first increase in SCr within the early phase ( 〈 24 hours), and late CA-AKI was defined as an increase in SCr that occurred for the first time in the late phase (24–72 hours). The first endpoint of this study was long-term all-cause mortality. Kaplan–Meier analysis was used to count the cumulative mortality, and the log-rank test was used to assess differences between curves. Univariate and multivariate cox regression analyses were performed to assess whether patients who developed different type CA-AKI were at increased risk of long-term mortality. Results. The number of deaths in the 3 groups was 407 for normal (12.7%), 106 for early CA-AKI (32.7%) and 57 for late CA-AKI (17.7%), during a median follow-up period of 3.95 years. After adjusting for important clinical variables, early CA-AKI (HR = 1.33, 95% CI: 1.02–1.74, P = 0.038 ) was significantly associated with mortality, while late CA-AKI (HR = 0.92, 95% CI: 0.65–1.31, P = 0.633 ) was not. The same results were found in patients with coronary artery disease, chronic kidney disease, diabetes mellitus, and percutaneous coronary intervention. Conclusions. Early increases in Scr, i.e., early CA-AKI, have better predictive value for long-term mortality. Therefore, in clinical practice, physicians should pay more attention to patients with early renal injury related to long-term prognosis and give active treatment.

    Abstract: Contrast-associated acute kidney injury (CA-AKI) is a common complication with poor prognosis after coronary angiography (CAG). With the prevention methods widely being implemented, the temporal trends of incidence and mortality of CA-AKI are still unknown over the last five years. The study aims to determine the incidence and prognosis of CA-AKI in China. Methods This retrospective cohort study was based on the registry at Guangdong Provincial People’s Hospital in China (ClinicalTrials.gov NCT04407936). We analyzed data from hospitalization patients who underwent CAG and with preoperative and postoperative serum creatinine (Scr) values from January 2013 to December 2017. Results 11,943 patients were included in the study, in which the mean age was 63.01 ± 10.79 years and 8,469 (71.1 %) were male. The overall incidence of CA-AKI was 11.2 %. Compared with 2013, the incidence of CA-AKI in 2017 was significantly increased from 9.7 to 13.0 % (adjusted odds ratios [aOR], 1.38; 95 %CI, 1.13–1.68; P -value  〈  0.01, P for trend  〈  0.01). The temporal trends of incidence among patients of different ages and genders yielded similar findings. During a standardized follow-up of 1 year, 178 (13.7 %) CA-AKI patients died in total, which showed no obvious decreased trend in this 5 five years from 21.1 to 16.5 (adjusted hazard ratio [aHR], 0.72; 95 %CI, 0.36–1.45; P -value = 0.35, P for trend = 0.24). Conclusions Our Chinese cohort showed that the incidence of CA-AKI increased significantly, while CA-AKI associated mortality showed no obvious decreased trend in the last five years. Our findings support more active measures to prevent CA-AKI and improve the prognosis of CA-AKI patients.

    Abstract: Background: Although glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) was considered as a prognostic factor in some subgroup of coronary artery disease (CAD), the specific relationship between HbA1c and the long-term all-cause death remains controversial in patients with CAD. Methods: The study enrolled 37,596 CAD patients and measured HbAlc at admission in Guangdong Provincial People's Hospital. The patients were divided into 4 groups according to HbAlc level (Quartile 1: HbA1c ≤ 5.7%; Quartile 2: 5.7% & lt; HbA1c ≤ 6.1%; Quartile 3: 6.1% & lt; HbA1c ≤ 6.7%; Quartile 4: HbA1c & gt; 6.7%). The study endpoint was all-cause death. The restricted cubic splines and cox proportional hazards models were used to investigate the association between baseline HbAlc levels and long-term all-cause mortality. Results: The median follow-up was 4 years. The cox proportional hazards models revealed that HbAlc is an independent risk factor in the long-term all-cause mortality. We also found an approximate U-shape association between HbA1c and the risk of mortality, including increased risk of mortality when HbA1c ≤ 5.7% and HbA1c & gt; 6.7% [Compared with Quartile 2, Quartile 1 (HbA1c ≤ 5.7), aHR = 1.13, 95% CI:1.01–1.26, P & lt; 0.05; Quartile 3 (6.1% & lt; HbA1c ≤ 6.7%), aHR = 1.04, 95% CI:0.93–1.17, P =0.49; Quartile 4 (HbA1c & gt; 6.7%), aHR = 1.32, 95% CI:1.19–1.47, P & lt; 0.05]. Conclusions: Our study indicated a U-shape relationship between HbA1c and long-term all-cause mortality in CAD patients.

    Abstract: Several studies have found that a low baseline low -density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) concentration was associated with poor prognosis in patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS), which is called the “cholesterol paradox”. Low LDL-C concentration may reflect underlying malnutrition, which was strongly associated with increased mortality. The aim of this study was to investigate the cholesterol paradox in patients with CAD and the effects of malnutrition. Method A total of 41,229 CAD patients admitted to Guangdong Provincial People’s Hospital in China were included in this study from January 2007 to December 2018 and divided into two groups (LDL-C  〈  1.8 mmol/L, n  = 4863; LDL-C ≥ 1.8 mmol/L, n  = 36,366). The Kaplan-Meier method and Cox regression analyses were used to assess the association between LDL-C levels and long-term all-cause mortality and the effect of malnutrition. Result In this real-world cohort (mean age 62.9 years; 74.9% male), there were 5257 cases of all-cause death during a median follow-up of 5.20 years [interquartile range (IQR): 3.05–7.78 years]. Kaplan–Meier analysis showed that low LDL-C levels were associated with a worse prognosis. After adjusting for baseline confounders (e.g., age, sex and comorbidities, etc.), multivariate Cox regression analysis revealed that a low LDL-C level ( 〈  1.8 mmol/L) was not significantly associated with all-cause mortality (adjusted HR, 1.04; 95% CI, 0.96–1.24). After adjustment for nutritional status, the risk of all-cause mortality in patients with low LDL-C levels decreased (adjusted HR, 0.90; 95% CI, 0.83–0.98). In the final multivariate Cox model, a low LDL-C level was related to better prognosis (adjusted HR, 0.91; 95% CI, 0.84–0.99). Conclusion This study demonstrated that the cholesterol paradox existed in CAD patients but disappeared after accounting for the effects of malnutrition.

    Abstract: Different definitions of contrast-associated acute kidney injury (CA-AKI) have different predictive effects on prognosis. However, few studies explored the relationship between these definitions and long-term prognosis in patients with congestive heart failure (CHF). Thus, we aimed to evaluate this association and compared the population attributable risks (PAR) of different CA-AKI definitions. Methods This study enrolled 2,207 consecutive patients with CHF undergoing coronary angiography (CAG) in Guangdong Provincial People's Hospital. Two different definitions of CA-AKI were used: CA-AKI A was defined as an increase ≥.5 mg/dl or & gt; 25% in serum creatinine (SCr) from baseline within 72 h after CAG, and CA-AKI B was defined as an increase of ≥.3 mg/dl or & gt; 50% in SCr from baseline within 48 h after CAG. Kaplan-Meier methods and Cox regression were applied to evaluate the association between CA-AKI with long-term mortality. Population attributable risk (PAR) of different definitions for long-term prognosis was also calculated. Results During the 3.8-year median follow-up (interquartile range 2.1-6), the overall long-term mortality was 24.9%, and the long-term mortality in patients with the definitions of CA-AKI A and CA-AKI B were 30.4% and 34.3%, respectively. We found that CA-AKI A (HR: 1.44, 95% CI 1.19-1.74) and CA-AKI B (HR: 1.48, 95% CI 1.21-1.80) were associated with long-term mortality. The PAR was higher for CA-AKI A (9.6% vs. 8%). Conclusions Our findings suggested that CA-AKI was associated with long-term mortality in patients with CHF irrespective of its definitions. The CA-AKI A was a much better definition of CA-AKI in patients with CHF due to its higher PAR. For these patients, cardiologists should pay more attention to the presence of CA-AKI, especially CA-AKI A .

    Abstract: Previous studies have shown that renal function recovery after acute kidney injury (AKI) was associated with decreased risk of all-cause mortality. However, little is known about the correlation between renal function recovery and long-term prognosis in patients with contrast-associated acute kidney injury (CA-AKI) undergoing coronary angiography (CAG). Methods We retrospectively enrolled 5,865 patients who underwent CAG. CA-AKI was defined as an increase in serum creatinine (SCr) ≥ 50% or ≥ 0.3 mg/dl from baseline within 72 h post procedure. Recovered CA-AKI was defined as a decrease in SCr to baseline or no CA-AKI level. The first endpoint was long-term all-cause mortality. Kaplan–Meier analysis and Cox regression analysis were used to investigate the association between kidney function recovery and long-term mortality. Results During the median follow-up period of 5.25 years, the overall long-term mortality was 20.07%, and the long-term mortality in patients with recovered CA-AKI and non-recovered CA-AKI was 17.46 and 27.44%, respectively. After multivariate Cox hazard regression, non-recovered CA-AKI was significantly associated with long-term mortality, while recovered CA-AKI was not [recovered CA-AKI vs. no CA-AKI, hazard ratio (HR) = 1.06, 95% confidence interval (CI): 0.81–1.39, p = 0.661; non-recovered CA-AKI vs. no CA-AKI, HR = 1.39, 95% CI: 1.21–1.60, p & lt; 0.001]. In the subgroup of CAD, both recovered CA-AKI and non-recovered CA-AKI were associated with increased risk of long-term all-cause mortality. However, in other subgroup analyses, only non-recovered CA-AKI was associated with increased risk of long-term all-cause mortality. Conclusion Our results found that non-recovered CA-AKI is significantly associated with long-term mortality. In patients with CAD, recovered CA-AKI can still increase the risk of all-cause mortality. Clinicians need to pay more attention to patients suffering from CA-AKI, whose kidney function has not recovered. In addition, active prevention treatments should be taken by patients with CAD.

    Abstract: Background: A high level of lipoprotein(a) can lead to a high risk of cardiovascular events or mortality. However, the association of moderately elevated lipoprotein(a) levels (≥15 mg/dL) with long-term prognosis among patients with coronary artery disease (CAD) is still uncertain. Hence, we aim to systematically analyzed the relevance of baseline plasma lipoprotein(a) levels to long-term mortality in a large cohort of CAD patients. Methods: We obtained data from 43,647 patients who were diagnosed with CAD and had follow-up information from January 2007 to December 2018. The patients were divided into two groups ( & lt;15 and ≥15 mg/dL). The primary endpoint was long-term all-cause death. Kaplan–Meier curve analysis and Cox proportional hazards models were used to investigate the association between moderately elevated baseline lipoprotein(a) levels (≥15 mg/dL) and long-term all-cause mortality. Results: During a median follow-up of 5.04 years, 3,941 (18.1%) patients died. We observed a linear association between lipoprotein(a) levels and long-term all-cause mortality. Compared with lipoprotein(a) concentrations & lt;15 mg/dL, lipoprotein(a) ≥15 mg/dL was associated with a significantly higher risk of all-cause mortality [adjusted hazard ratio (aHR) 1.10, 95%CI: 1.04–1.16, P -values = 0.001). Similar results were found for the subgroup analysis of non-acute myocardial infarction, non-percutaneous coronary intervention, chronic heart failure, diabetes mellitus, or non-chronic kidney diseases. Conclusion: Moderately elevated baseline plasma lipoprotein(a) levels (≥15 mg/dL) are significantly associated with higher all-cause mortality in patients with CAD. Our finding provides a rationale for testing the lipoprotein(a)-reducing hypothesis with lower targets (even & lt;15 mg/dL) in CAD outcome trials.
