[Effects of Dapagliflozin on contrast-induced acute kidney injury in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus underwent percutaneous coronary intervention].

ABSTRACT

Objective: To investigate the effect of Dapagliflozin, sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitor (SGLT2i), on contrast-induced acute kidney injury (CIAKI) in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) after percutaneous coronary intervention(PCI). Methods: A cohort study. The clinical data of 366 patients with coronary heart disease combined with T2DM who underwent PCI in the Department of Cardiology, Tianjin University Chest Hospital, from June 2021 to June 2022 were retrospectively analyzed, including 218 males and 148 females, aged (64.6±11.0) years old. According to whether the patients had used Dapagliflozin or not, the selected patients were divided into SGLT2i group(n=124) and control group(n=242). The changes in cardiac indicators, renal function, and inflammatory response indicators before and 72 hours after PCI treatment were analyzed and compared between the two groups. The incidence rate of CIAKI in the two groups was analyzed, and the influencing factors of CIAKI were analyzed by multivariate logistic regression. The major adverse cardiac events (MACE) were recorded during the follow-up period of the two groups, and Kaplan-Meier survival analysis and log-rank test were used to compare the differences in MACE occurrence between the two group. Results: The left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) of the SGLT2i group was lower than that of the control group, and the proportion of patients with LVEF<45% and CIAKI risk score were higher than those of the control group, with statistical significance (all P<0.05). 72 h after PCI treatment, ß-2 Microglobulin(ß-2MG), cystatin-C(Cys-C), and neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (NGAL) in both groups were all increased compared to those before PCI treatment, with statistical significance (all P<0.05).ß-2MG, Cys-C, and NGAL in SGLT2i group were all lower than those in the control group, with statistical significance(all P<0.05).The levels of interleukin-6(IL-6), hypersensitive C-reactive protein (hs-CRP), and malondialdehyde in both groups of patients increased compared to preoperative levels, while the levels of superoxide dismutase (SOD) decreased compared to preoperative levels, with statistical significance (all P<0.05). The levels of IL-6, hs-CRP, and malondialdehyde in the SGLT2i group were lower than those in the control group, while SOD was higher than that in the control group, with statistical significance (all P<0.05). Among all patients included, 34 cases experienced CIAKI (9.8%), and the incidence of CIAKI in the SGLT2i group was lower than that in the control group [4.8% (6/124) vs 11.6% (28/242),P=0.037]. Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that the use of dapagliflozin was a protective factor for CIAKI in T2DM patients receiving PCI treatment (OR=0.321, 95%CI 0.127-0.816, P=0.017). After a follow-up of 14.0 (12.0, 16.2) months, the incidence of MACE in SGLT2i group was lower than that in the control group (7.3% vs 12.8%, P=0.048). Conclusions: Dapagliflozin may reduce the risk of CIAKI and MACE in T2DM patients after PCI treatment. Its mechanism may be related to the anti-inflammatory and antioxidant effects of SGLT2i.
