Association between Serum Ferritin and Contrast-Induced Nephropathy in Patients with Acute Coronary Syndrome Undergoing Percutaneous Coronary Intervention

الملخص EN

Background and Aims.

CIN is a major and serious complication following PCI in patients with ACS.

It is unclear whether a higher serum ferritin level is associated with an increased risk of CIN in high-risk patients.

Thus, we conducted this study to assess the predictive value of SF for the risk of CIN after PCI.

Methods.

We prospectively examined SF levels in 548 patients with ACS before undergoing PCI.

Multivariate logistic regression analysis was used to analyze the independent risk factors for CIN.

The ROC analysis was performed to evaluate the predictive value of SF for CIN.

Results.

CIN occurred in 96 patients.

Baseline SF was higher in patients who developed CIN compared to those who did not ( 257.05 ± 93.98 versus 211.67 ± 106.65 ; P < 0.001 ).

Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that SF was an independent predictor of CIN (OR, 1.008; 95% CI, 1.003–1.013; P = 0.002 ).

The area under ROC curve for SF was 0.629, and SF > 180.9 μg/L predicted CIN with sensitivity of 80.2% and specificity of 41.4%.

Conclusion.

Our data show that a higher SF level was significantly associated with an increased risk of CIN after PCI.
