Objective:To validate the effectiveness of Mehran score on the risk prediction of contrast-induced nephropathy(CIN) in Chinese population, so as to provide reference for clinical practice. Methods:A total of 3 614 patients who underwent coronary angiography and interventional therapy at the Third Xiangya Hospital of Central South University were enrolled in this study, and their clinical data including age, gender, basic creatinine value, maximum creatinine value at 3 days postoperatively, hematocrit, blood pressure, whether or not referred to intra-aortic balloon anti-bombing and heart failure, etc.were collected and then the effectiveness of the Mehran score was analyzed, Goodness-of-fit of Mehran score was assessed by the Hosmer-Lemeshow (H-L) test, and the accuracy of the Mehran score in predicting CIN was evaluated by the area under receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC). The effectiveness of the Mehran score was verified under two diagnostic criteria of CIN. Results:Of the 3 614 patients, 203 cases occurred CIN, and the incidence rate was 5.62%;there were 23 cases(0.64%) serum creatinine increased ≥ 44.2 μmol·L-1 basal value, while 201 cases (5.56%) with serum creatinine increased ≥ 25% basal value.According to the diagnostic criteria of serum creatinine increased ≥ 44.2 μmol·L-1 basal value, H-L test analysis showed that the Mehran score had a good goodness-of-fit(χ2=7.46, df=5, P=0.189). And the area under the ROC curve was 0.726 (95% CI 0.604-0.849, P<0.05). When using the diagnostic criteria that serum creatinine increased ≥ 25% basal value, H-L test analysis suggested that the Mehran score had a good goodness-of-fit too(χ2=4.38, df=5, P=0.496).And the area under the ROC curve was 0.497 (95% CI 0.456-0.537, P=0.868). Conclusion:The goodness-of-fit of Mehran score is better under both diagnostic criteria.According to the diagnostic criteria of serum creatinine increased ≥ 44.2 μmol·L-1 basal value, the Mehran score predict CIN more accurately;whereas based on the diagnostic criteria of serum creatinine increased ≥ 25% basal value, the Mehran scorecan not predict CIN well, and a larger queue is required for further validation. |
