The relationship between hyperuricemia and contrast-induced acute kidney injury undergoing primary percutaneous coronary intervention: secondary analysis protocol for the ATTEMPT RESCIND-1 study

摘要

BACKGROUND:Contrast-induced acute kidney injury (CI-AKI) contributes toward unfavorable clinical outcomes after primary percutaneous coronary intervention (pPCI). We will assess whether hyperuricemia is an independent predictor of CI-AKI and outcomes in patients undergoing pPCI.METHODS/DESIGN:Our study is a secondary analysis for the database from ATTEMPT study, enrolling 560 ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) patients undergoing pPCI. Patients will be divided into 2 groups according to the admission serum uric acid (SUA) level. Hyperuricemia will be defined as a SUA level ?7?mg/dL (417?mmol/L) in males and ?6?mg/dL (357?mmol/L) in females. The primary endpoint was CI-AKI, defined as ?25% or 0.5?mg/dL increase in serum creatinine from baseline during the first 48-72?h post-procedurally. Multivariate analyses for CI-AKI and long-term mortality will be performed using the logistic regression and Cox regression analyses, respectively.DISCUSSION:This study will determine the predictive value of hyperuricemia for the development of CI-AKI and outcomes in patients with STEMI undergoing pPCI. We predict that hyperuricemia will be associated with a risk of CI-AKI in patients with pPCI. Furthermore, after adjusting for other variables, long-term mortality after pPCI may be higher in those with hyperuricemia than in those with normouricemia. Results of this study may provide scientific evidence for the effect of hyperuricemia on CI-AKI and long-term outcomes, thereby offering the potential possibility of lowering SUA on the development of CI-AKI and outcomes.TRIAL REGISTRATION:ClinicalTrials.gov NCT02067195, Registered on 20 February 2014.
