    Clinical SYNTAX Score Can Predict Acute Kidney Injury following On-Pump but Not Off-Pump Coronary Artery Bypass Surgery
    (KARGER, 2015-01-01) Gursoy, Mete; Hokenek, Abdulkadir Faruk; Duygu, Egemen; Atay, Mehmet; Yavuz, Asuman
    Background: The complexity of coronary artery disease is usually a neglected factor in risk stratification systems. We aimed to analyze the discriminative ability of the clinical SYNTAX score (CSS) for acute kidney injury (AKI) following on- and off-pump coronary artery surgery. Methods: A total of 193 patients were reviewed in this study. Patients were divided into two groups according to the surgical procedure (group I: off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting, n = 89

    Cofilin-1 as a potential biomarker to evaluate acute kidney injury
    (WALTER DE GRUYTER GMBH, 2019-01-01) Coskun, Abdurrahman; Ucal, Yasemin; Berber, Ibrahim; Cakir, Ulkem; Serteser, Mustafa; Moldur, Derya Emel; Derelioglu, Ecenur Izzete; Yozgatli, Tahir Koray; Ozpinar, Aysel; Unsal, Ibrahim
    Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a worldwide health problem and defined by rapid loss of excretory function of the kidney with the accumulation of metabolic end products. For effective treatment and prevent complications the early diagnosis of AKI is crucial. The current analytes used to diagnose AKI are not adequately sensitive and specific and therefore clinicians need new biomarkers. One of the new promising biomarker candidates of renal injury is cofilin-1. Previously, in our laboratory we isolated cofilin-1 in kidney preservation solution prior to transplantation and attempted to measure serum cofilin-1 in renal transplanted patients. However, cofilin-1 was not accurately measured in serum samples due to the methodological issues. In this mini-review, we summarized the current knowledge and concepts both in the literature and our experiences with cofilin-1 as a potential biomarker for the diagnosis and management of AKI.
