Abstract
Contrast-induced nephropathy (CIN) is a complication of patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Promising biomarkers for the early prediction of CIN can significantly improve outcomes of these patients. We searched PubMed, EMBASE, Web of Science, and Cochrane Library for studies. Trials reporting an area under the curve (AUC) for the utility of novel biomarkers in the early prediction of CIN in adults after PCI were included. In total, 42 studies comprising 11,984 adult patients undergoing PCI met the criteria. Four urinary biomarkers and four blood biomarkers were included. For urine biomarkers, the pooled AUCs for neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (NGAL), interleukin-18 (IL-18), liver-type fatty acid-binding protein (L-FABP), and kidney injury molecule-1 (KIM-1) were 0.91 (95% CI 0.89-0.94), 0.79 (0.75-0.82), 0.78 (0.74-0.82), and 0.79 (0.76-0.83), respectively. The blood biomarkers NGAL, cystatin C, brain natriuretic peptide (BNP), and C-reactive protein (CRP) had pooled AUCs of 0.93 (0.91-0.95), 0.92 (0.89-0.94), 0.78 (0.74-0.81), and 0.75 (0.71-0.79), respectively. Subgroup analysis showed that blood NGAL in early CIN predictive time (<6 h) was more effective in predicting CIN. The efficiency of cystatin C in predicting CIN was reduced, whereas that of L-FABP was increased among chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients.
