Abstract Objectives To investigate the safety and efficacy of ANG-3777, a hepatocyte growth factor mimetic, in mitigating the risk of acute kidney injury (AKI) in patients undergoing cardiac surgery with..
Read MoreAbstract Introduction: Mannitol, an osmotic diuretic solution, is commonly utilized in priming cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) and can impact kidney function. This study was conducted to investigate the impact of mannitol use..
Read MoreAbstract Background Our goal was to create a simple risk‐prediction model for renal function decline after cardiac surgery to help focus renal follow‐up efforts on patients most likely to benefit...
Read MoreAbstract BACKGROUND: Transfusion of packed red blood cells (pRBCs) is still associated with risks. This study aims to determine whether renal function deterioration in the context of individual transfusions in..
Read MoreAbstract Background: Cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) may lead to tissue hypoxia, inflammatory response, and risk for acute kidney injury (AKI). We evaluated the prevalence of AKI and inflammatory response in neonates undergoing..
Read MoreAbstract OBJECTIVES This study aims to improve early detection of cardiac surgery-associated acute kidney injury (CSA-AKI) compared to classical clinical scores. METHODS Data from 7633 patients who underwent cardiac..

Read MoreAbstract Introduction: Acute kidney injury following cardiac surgery is a frequent complication associated with increased mortality and morbidity. Minimal invasive extracorporeal circulation is suggested to preserve postoperative renal function. The..
Read MoreAbstract Background: The aim of this retrospective study is to determine the correlation between preoperative CRP levels and the early renal dysfunction after cardiac surgery. Methods: From January 2012 to..
