RESUMEN

BACKGROUND: Catalytic iron (CI) mediates vascular injury by generating reactive oxygen species. We evaluated role of CI in predicting mortality in patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS) and studied association of contrast nephropathy with CI levels. METHODS: We investigated 806 patients with ACS undergoing contrast exposure for a cardiac procedure who were followed up for 30 days. RESULTS: Overall mortality was 1.6% at 30 days. Catalytic iron at baseline predicted mortality with CI levels significantly higher in those who died, 0.45 µmol/L (0.37, 0.68) compared with survivors 0.31 µmol/L (0.21, 0.40); P = .004. Catalytic iron was associated with increased risk of death in the highest quartile compared with lower 3 quartiles (hazard ratio 7.88, P = .001) after adjustment for age, diabetes, ST deviation, Killip class, ejection fraction, baseline creatinine, hemoglobin level, and troponin. Fifty-five patients (6.8%) developed contrast nephropathy. Patients with contrast nephropathy had a 27% increase in median CI levels from baseline up to 48 hours compared with a marginal 2.9% increase in those without contrast nephropathy (0.37, 0.14 µmol/L to 0.47, 0.20 µmol/L versus 0.35, 0.12 µmol/L to 0.36, 0.14 µmol/L, P < .0001). Patients with contrast nephropathy had significantly higher mortality compared with those without contrast nephropathy (9.1% vs 1.1%, P = .001). CONCLUSION: High baseline CI levels predicted mortality in patients with ACS. Occurrence of contrast nephropathy was associated with rise in CI levels and higher mortality. Therapeutic options to buffer or chelate CI may have beneficial effects on mortality in this setting.
