Abstract
Background: The objective was to examine the predictive value of malnutrition, assessed via the Controlling Nutritional status (CONUT) and Prognostic Nutrition Index (PNI) scores, in the development of contrast-associated acute kidney injury (CA-AKI) following peripheral vascular intervention (PVI).Methods: This retrospective cross-sectional observational study included the enrollment of 243 consecutive patients who underwent PVI. Patients were categorized into two groups based on the occurrence of CA-AKI.Results: Patients with CA-AKI had lower PNI scores and the PNI score was an independent predictor of CA-AKI development (Odds Ratio: 0.518, 95% CI: 2.295-0.908, p=0.021). Nomogram had higher discriminative ability than both PNI and CONUT scores and discriminative abilities were similar for PNI and CONUT scores.Conclusion: Malnutrition, as identified by the CONUT and PNI, was found to be associated with a high risk of CA-AKI development following PVI.
