Methods The clinical data of 77 patients with ARF from Auguest 2007 to April 2008 were retrospectively analyzed. Results Renal factor was the most important cause of ARF, accounting for 77.92%. The mortalities of elderly patients, oliguric patients and with multiple organ failure were 25.93%, 29.55%, and 83.33%, respectively. Conclusion Patients with ARF should be diagnosed as early as possible and given comprehensive treatments, including renal replacement therapy; the elderly patients with multiple organ failure and infection should be relaxed dialysis indications. We should pay attention to the removal of risk factors to improve the survival rate.
Abstract: Objective To investigate the application value of the Clinical Score developed by Cleveland University in predicting the occurrence ratio of acute renal failure in Chinese patients after cardiac surgery. Methods A total of 456 adult patients , 230 males and 226 females , with cardiac surgery during August 2008 to July 2009 were included in our study. Their age ranged from 18 to 88 years with an average age of 56.7 years. Before the surgery, Clinical Score was used to predict acute renal failure after cardiac surgery. Based on the score of ≤5, 610, or ≥11, the patients were divided into group Ⅰ (n=401), group Ⅱ (n=42) and group Ⅲ (n=13). The occurrence rate of acute kidney injury (AKI), continuous renal replacement therapy in hospital, multiple organ failure, mortality and other clinical indexes were compared among the 3 groups. Results Occurrence ratio of AKI of group Ⅰ, Ⅱ, Ⅲ was respectively 2.74%, 28.57% and 76.92% (χ2=73.004, P=0.000). Continuous renal replacement therapy rate was respectively 0.50%, 9.52%, and 38.46% (χ2=36.939, P=0.000). Multiple organ failure rate was respectively 0.50%, 4.76%, and 23.08% (χ2=19.694, P=0.000). Mortality rate was respectively 0.25%, 2.38%, and 15.38% (χ2=14.061, P=0.001). There were significant differences among the three groups. Conclusion The Clinical Score to Predict Acute Renal Failure developed by Cleveland University can effectively predict the occurrence rate of acute renal failure in the Chinese patients after cardiac surgery before the operation. Therefore, corresponding preventive methods can be taken for highrisk patients.
Objective To evaluate the effectiveness and safety of reduced glutathione in the treatment of acute renal failure. Methods Twenty-three patients with acute renal failure were divided into the treatment group (n=10) and the control group (n=13) by simple randomisation. Patients in the treatment group received intravenous reduced glutathione 1200 mg daily. Patients in the control group were not treated with reduced glutathione. The therapeutic course for both groups was 4 weeks. Serum creatinine and urea nitrogen were determined before treatment as well as at the end of each of the 4 weeks. Proximal and distal renal tubular functions were evaluated at the end of the treatment. The time when clinical symptoms were improved was recorded and adverse drug reactions were monitored. Results The durations of nausea and vomiting as well as the oliguria stage were shorter in the treatment group than in the control group. The serum creatinine level in the treatment group decreased more markedly than that in the control group. At the end of the treatment, the renal tubular function was better in the treatment group than in the control group. Conclusion Reduced glutathione contributes to the early recovery of renal function in patients with acute renal failure. However, more high-quality and large-scale randomized controlled trials are needed.
Objective To investigate the protection of renal function and the prevention of acute renal failure (ARF) in patients with malignant obstructive jaundice in perioperative period of radical resection. Methods A series of clinical interventions had been taken since 2004 in our treatment team, including control of endotoxemia, depression of biliary tract before operation, maintenance of adequate effective blood volume, nutritive support, administration of mannitol and low dose of furosemide, and avoidance of disseminated intravascular coagulation. The incidence of perioperative ARF in 206 patients with malignant obstructive jaundice who had been radically resected from 2000 to 2007 was retrospectively studied, and the RIFLE criteria was used for ARF classification. This study was progressed in two periods. The first one was from Jan. 2000 to Dec. 2003, and the second one was from Jan. 2004 to Dec. 2007. Results After 2003, the proportion of radical resection rose from 44.8% to 57.1% (P<0.05), and the rate of perioperative ARF dropped from 15.1% to 6.7%(P<0.05), among which the proportion in the RIFLE-R (Risk) stage had no significant change, while in the RIFLE-F (Failure) stage it dropped from 10.5% to 2.5% (P<0.05). Finally, perioperative mortality rate dropped from 16.3% to 5.8% (P<0.05). Therefore, the reduction of ARF was mainly attributed to the reduction in RIFLE-F stage. Conclusion By using the latest RIFLE criteria to classify ARF, it illustrates that our perioperative interventions have effectively decreased ARF, limited ARF in its early and reversible stage, and prevented advancing.
ObjectiveTo explore the value of Aquaporin-3 (AQP-3) on the detection of early renal function damage by investigating the expressions of renal AQP-3 mRNA and protein of rats with obstructive jaundice (OJ). MethodsForty mature male Wistar rats were divided into two groups randomly: experimental group (n=20) in which the model of OJ rats was established, and control group (n=20, sham operation group). The levels of serum total bilirubin (TBIL), direct bilirubin (DBIL), creatinine (Cr), and blood urea nitrogen (BUN) were detected by fullautomatic biochemical analyzer on 7 d and 14 d after operation. The expressions of renal AQP-3 mRNA and protein of rats were detected by RT-PCR and Western blotting, respectively. ResultsThe levels of serum TBIL and DBIL were significantly higher on 14 d than those on 7 d after operation in experimental group (P=0.000), which were significantly higher than those at corresponding time point in control group (P=0.000), while the difference within control group was not significant (P=0.154). Thus, the OJ models of rats were established successfully. The difference of serum Cr levels of rats between inter-and intragroup were not significant (Pgt;0.05). Serum BUN level on 14 d after operation in experimental group was significantly higher than those on 7 d after operation in experimental group and on 14 d after operation in control group (P=0.001), although serum Cr levels were not different between 7 d and 14 d after operation in control group (P=0.288). The expressions of AQP-3 protein of rats on 7 d and 14 d after operation in experimental group were significantly lower than those at corresponding time point in control group (P=0.033, P=0.000), meanwhile on 14 d after operation in experimental group was significantly lower than those on 7 d after operation in experimental group (P=0.000). The expressions of AQP-3 mRNA of rats on 7 d and 14 d after operation in experimental group were significantly higher than those at corresponding time point in control group (P=0.000), but the difference at different time point in two groups was not significant (P=0.139, P=0.059). ConclusionsThe changes of renal AQP-3 protein and mRNA expressions are prior to the changes of serum Cr and BUN levels of rats suffered from OJ complicated renal function damage, which are promised to improve the early diagnosis rate of renal function damage in rats with OJ.
