Abstract:
Contrast-induced nephropathy (CIN) is known to associate with poor prognosis.However, there have been few studies for long-term follow up. The purpose of this study was to know the prognosis of CIN during a 10-year follow up. We retrospectively analyzed 528 patients who underwent coronary angiography in Jeonbuk National University Hospital (South Korea, Jeonju) between Jan 2005 to Dec 2006. We excluded the patients who required regular dialysis before study enrollment. We compared adverse events in the no CIN (group I, n=485, 61.9±11.4 years, male 64.1%) and CIN (group II, n=43, 65.7±11.1 years, male 62.8%). Baseline clinical characteristics and cardiovascular risk factors were not different between the two groups except the post-procedure creatinine level (1.04 mg/dL vs 1.84 mg/dL, p=0.0001). The higher rates of all-cause death were observed in group II at 1-year (3.7% vs 13.9%, log-rank, p=0.001), 5-years (17.9% vs 34.9%, log-rank, p=0.003), and 10-years (25.3% vs 48.8%, log-rank, p=0.000). MACE was higher in group II at 1-year (3.9% vs 11.6%, log-rank, p=0.013), 5-years (6.8% vs 20.9%, log-rank, p=0.000) and 10-years (13.4% vs 27.9%, log-rank, p=0.000). In addition, CIN was an independent predictor for 10-year MACE (adjusted HR 3.432, 95% CI 1.314-8.965, p=0.012) after propensity score matching. The worse prognosis of CIN was continuously observed after the 10-year follow-up. Our data suggests that it is worthwhile to prevent the appearance of CIN in order to improve longterm results.
