Clinical Trial Summary
Introduction: Acute kidney injury (AKI) occurs up to 50% of patients admitted to intensive
care unit. Plasma Endostatin, released from basement membrane of Bowman's capsule, rises
early during AKI.
Aim of Work: To investigate the role of the plasma endostatin in the outcome prediction
(renal recovery, ICU stay, mortality) of acute kidney injury in patients with sepsis.
Methods: a prospective, observational single center study on 40 patients with Sepsis at the
Critical Care Department, Cairo University hospitals between March 2019 and November 2019.
Serum plasma endostatin was measured at the day of admission & every 48hrs (3 samples).
APACHE II, SOFA scores were calculated. Forced diuresis was used if indicated.
Description:
The study was conducted on 40 patients with sepsis who admitted in the Critical Care
department of Cairo University.
The sepsis is identified according to surviving sepsis campaign guidelines with use of SOFA
score to establish the diagnosis.
The patients divided into 2 groups the first group included 25 patients who developed AKI as
defined by KDIGO guidelines and the other group included 15 patients as a control group.
The Plasma Endostatin level is sampled in the first 24 hours of diagnosis of AKI, the
estimation of plasma Endostatin level done by ELISA technique.
The results were presented in form of: descriptive, analytical and comparative data between
the groups of study.
It was found that the patients with higher levels of plasma endostatin had a higher incidence
of recovery from AKI and higher incidence of 28 days survival, while the patients with lower
levels of plasma Endostatin below the determined Cut-off value have increased incidence of
RRT .
Also that the patients with higher levels of plasma Endostatin levels were less labile to
mechanical ventilation and had a higher incidence of weaning of vasopressors in comparison of
the other group of lower levels of plasma Endostatin.
Plasma Endostatin levels have no difference between the AKI group and sepsis group which may
need further investigations to determine its role in sepsis.
so that, the plasma Endostatin can be used as a marker of recovery from AKI.
