目的通过对体外循环下接受心脏手术的患者,检测尿中性粒细胞明胶酶相关脂质运载蛋白(NGAL),观察其与急性肾损伤(AKI)的关系。方法根据AKI的诊断标准,将33例在体外循环下接受心脏手术的患者分为AKI组及非AKI组,分别留取术前及术后不同时间点的血液和尿液标本,测定所有标本中的肌酐水平和尿液标本中NGAL水平。结果①33例患者有9例发生AKI,发生率为27%,AKI组血清肌酐(Scr)升高峰值出现在12-48h内。②与术前相比,非AKI组患者术后2h尿NGAL水平显著升高(P〈0.001),此后逐渐下降,其余各时间点与术前水平相比差异无统计学意义;AKI组术后2h及术后4h尿NGAL水平显著升高(均P〈0.001),术后8h仍持续较高水平,但与术前水平相比差异无统计学意义。③AKI组术后各时间点的尿NGAL水平都明显高于非AKI组(均P〈0.01)。④与术前相比,非AKI组患者术后2h及4h尿NGAL/Ucr水平显著升高(均P〈0.05),此后逐渐下降,与术前水平相比差异无统计学意义。AKI组术后2h及术后4h尿NGAL/Ucr水平显著升高(均P〈0.01),此后逐渐恢复到术前水平。⑤AKI组术后各时间点的尿NGAL/Ucr水平明显高于非AKI组,差异有统计学意义(均P〈0.01)。⑥2h尿NGAL和尿NGAL/Ucr的cutoff值分别在250μg/L和250μg/mmol时,体现出较好的敏感性和特异性。⑦AKI组术后12hScr水平与术后2h尿NGAL水平间存在线性相关(R=0.638,P〈0.05)。结论①体外循环下接受心脏手术的患者AKI发生率较高,可达到27%;②术后2h尿NGAL和术后2h尿NGAL/Ucr可作为体外循环下心脏手术后AKI发生的早期诊断指标,其中术后2h尿NGAL/Ucr更具敏感性;③术后2h尿NGAL和NGAL/Ucr分别在250μg/L和250μg/mmol时,体现出较好的敏感性和特异性。
Objective To test the hypothesis that Neutiophil gelatinase -associated lipocalin (NGAL) is an early biomarker for acute kidney injury (AKI) in patients after cardiac surgery. Methods 33 cases undergoing cardiac surgery were divided into AKI group and Non-AKI group according to the AKI criteria The concentration of urine NGAL at different time points were measured. Results ①Nine of 33 cases (27%) developed postoperative AKI, but diagnosis with serum creatinine was only 12-48 hours after cardiac surgery. ②Urinary concentrations of NGAL at 2 h after cardiac surgery in patients who did not develope AKI were significantly higher compared with those of preoperative (P 〈 0. 001 ). Urinary concentrations of NGAL at 2 h and 4 h after cardiac surgery in patients who developed AKI were significantly higher compared with those of preoperative ( P 〈 0. 001 ). ③The mean urinary NGAL concentrations in patients who developed AKI were significantly higher after surgery compared with patients who did not develop AKI (P 〈 0.01 ). ④Urinary concentrations of NGAL/Ucr at 2 h and 4 h after cardiac surgery in patients who did not develope AKI were significantly higher compared with those of preoperative ( P 〈 0. 05 ). Urinary concentrations of NGAL/Ucr at 2 h and 4 h after cardiac surgery in patients who developed AKI were significantly higher compared with those of preoperative( P 〈 0. O1 ). ⑤The mean urinary concentrations of NGAL/Ucr in patients who developed AKI were significantly higher after surgery compared with patients who did not develop AKI(P 〈0. 01 ). ⑥For concentrations in urine of NGAL at 2 h after surgery, sensitivity was 0. 7125, and specificity was O. 7307 for a cutoff value of 250 μg/L For concentrations in urine of NGAL/Ucr at 2 h after surgery, sensitivity was O. 8127, and specificity was O. 7839 for a cutoff value of 250 μg/mmol. ⑦Urinary concentrations of NGAL at 2 h after cardiac surgery was significantly associated with serum creatinine 12 h postope
