ABSTRACT
AIM:
Renal dysfunction is a common complication of cirrhosis, occurring either as part of multiorgan involvement in acute illness or secondary to advanced liver disease. To date, no study has comprehensively assessed multiple renal function parameters in hospitalized patients with cirrhosis through a multiparametric analysis of renal biochemistry markers.METHODS:
We conducted a retrospective, observational study including all consecutive patients hospitalized with cirrhosis who underwent a 43-multiparametric renal function assessment between January 1, 2021, and June 30, 2023.RESULTS:
All patients showed at least one of the following renal abnormalities Kidney Disease Improving Global Outcomes stage G2 or higher, sodium and/or chloride excretion fraction <1%, electrolyte-free water clearance <0.4 mL/min, or tubular maximum phosphate reabsorption capacity <0.8 mmol/L. The estimated glomerular filtration rate equations significantly overestimated the measured creatinine clearance with median differences of +14 mL/min/1.73 m2 (95% CI 6-29) and +9 mL/min/1.73 m2 (95% CI 2-15) for European Kidney Function Consortium equations, respectively. Notably, 54% and 39% of patients demonstrated estimated glomerular filtration rates exceeding 30% of the measured creatinine clearance when the Chronic Kidney Disease - Epidemiology Collaboration and European Kidney Function Consortium formulas were employed, respectively. Substantial discrepancies in Kidney Disease Improving Global Outcomes stage assignments were observed between the estimated glomerular filtration rate- and measured creatinine clearance-based assessments.CONCLUSIONS:
This study underscores the value of a multiparametric renal function assessment as a routine tool for evaluating renal function in patients with cirrhosis. A high prevalence of medically actionable renal abnormalities spanning multiple renal function modules, including alterations in glomerular function, salt and solute-free water excretion, and proximal tubule phosphate reabsorption, has been demonstrated in hospitalized patients with cirrhosis.
