2. Introduction

3. Acute kidney injury is a common and serious postoperative complication of cardiac surgery requiring cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB), and it is the second most common cause of AKI in the intensive care unit (1). • .Mao H, Katz N, Ariyanon W, Blanca-Martos L, Adýbelli Z, , et al (2013): Cardiac Surgery-Associated Acute Kidney Injury. Cardiorenal Med J. (3):178-99.

4. Several studies reported that even mild increases in serum creatinine levels following cardiac surgery were associated with significant effects on mortality (2) , long-term survival was depending AKI duration (3) , and early recovery of renal function was associated with improved long-term survival after CSA-AKI (3). • Ramesh G, Krawczeski C, Woo J, Wang Y, Devarajan P(2010): Urinary netrin-1 is an early predictive biomarker of acute kidney injury after cardiac surgery. Clin JAm Soc Nephrol.;5:395-401. • .Brown JR, Kramer RS, Coca SG, Parikh CR (2010): Duration ofacute kidney injury impacts long-term survival after cardiac surgery. Ann Thorac Surg 43: 993–9

5. Experimental studies have identified interventions that may prevent or treat AKI if instituted early in the disease process, well before the serum creatinine rises. The lack of early predictive biomarkers has impaired our ability to translate these promising findings to human AKI . Devarajan P (2006): Update on mechanisms of ischemic acute kidneyinjury. J Am Soc Nephrol; 17(6):1503-20.

6. Detection of AKI may delayed in the first 24–48 h depending on serum creatinine levels. Therefore, the need for more reliable, earlier indicators and predictors of AKI has emerged.

7. The netrins are laminin-related proteins,which was discovered as a kidney injury marker during spatial and temporal expression studies in the kidney after ischemia followed by reperfusion (9). • Within hours after reperfusion, netrin-1 protein expression appears in proximal tubular epithelial cells; it also appears in urine and can be quantified immediately after reperfusion,so netrin-1was suggested as an early diagnostic biomarker of kidney injury (10) • Wang W, Brian RW, Ramesh G (2008): Netrin-1 and kidney injury.

8. Netrin-1 was shown to play a role during angiogenesis,cell,tumor growth ,and regulation of migration inflammation . • Netrin-1 regulates the inflammatory response of neutrophils and macrophages, and suppresses ischemic acute kidney injury by inhibiting Cyclo-oxygenase-2 (COX-2)-mediated Prostaglandin E- 2 (PGE2) production. • Ramesh G (2012): Role of Netrin-1 Beyond the Brain: From Biomarker of Tissue Injury to Therapy for Inflammatory Diseases.

9. Aim of the work

10. study the value of the value of urinary netrin-1 as an early biomarker of ischemic acute kidney injury in cardiac surgery requiring cardio-pulmonary bypass.

11. Subjects and methods

12. This work has been carried out in collaboration between the Internal Medicine, Biochemistry and Cardiothoracic surgery departments, Faculty of medicine, Zagazig University, during the period from December 2013 to November 2014. Subjects: • All patients who underwent to cardiac surgery using Cardio-Pulmoary Bypass (CPB) at cardiothoracic surgery department of Zagazig University hospitals, during the period mentioned above were included in the study except those who were excluded by exclusion criteria then division of total subjects into two main groups (AKI and NON-AKI groups) according to their post-operative rise of serum creatinine depending on KDIGO definition of AKI as increase in serum creatinine by > 0.3 mg/dl within 48 hours (KDIGO Acute Kidney Injury Work Group., 2012). Exclusion criteria: All subjects were selected to be free from: • Chronic kidney disease, hypertension (BP>140/90), diabetes mellitus, liver diseases, collagen diseases, sepsis and malignancy.

13. All subjects were subjected to the following: A) Full medical history and complete clinical examination. B) Routine investigations: • Complete blood picture. • Fasting plasma glucose level. • Liver function tests. • Renal function tests. C) Specific investigation: 1- Measurement of basal serum creatinine and urinary netrin-1 by ELISA then 6 hours and 24 hours after Cardiac surgery. 2- Calculation of glomerular filtration rate using MDRD equation basal, 6 hours and 24 hours after Cardiac surgery.

14. Results

15. During the period of enrollment, 39 subjects who underwent to cardiac surgery using cardio-pulmonary bypass met the inclusion criteria of this study, then they were classified into two main groups: 1-GroupA :( AKI group): In this group of patient the serum creatinine was elevated either by 50 % of the basal level or by absolute rise 0.3 mg/dl above the basal level 24 hrs after cardiac surgery. It included 15 patients (10 males and 5 females) with mean value +- SD of 36.8±8.6 years old. There BMI with mean value +- SD of 26.3±3.2 kg/m2. 2- Group B: (Non AKI group): No rise of the serum creatinine level more than 50% of the basal level or more than 0.3 mg/dl above the basal level 24 hrs after cardiac surgery. It included 24 patients (13 female, 11 male) with mean age value of 37.91±12 years old.

26. Summary and Conclusion

27. Our study showed statistically highly significant elevation urinary netrin-1 at 6 and 24 hours after Cardiac surgery in the AKI group while serum creatinine failed to show any statistically significant elevation at 6 hours after cardiac surgery in the same group. • The sensitivity and specificity of urinary netrin-1 to detect AKI at 6 h after cardiac surgery was 86.7% and 91.7% respectively at a cutoff value of 107.3 pg/ml. • Combined urinary netrin-1 and serum creatinine had the samesensitivity and specificity.

28. In conclusion, urinary netrin-1 may be considered as early sensitive and specific biomarker of acute kidney injury at 6 hours after cadiac surgery requiring cadiopulmonary bypass instead of rise in serum creatinine that delayed 24-48 hours after surgery in cardiac surgery associated- acute kidney injury patients.

29. Recommendations

30. Using basal urinary netrin-1 and 6 hours after cardiac surgery that requires CPB as an early biomarker of cardiac surgery associated-acute kidney injury. • Performance of more studies on large number of patients who are susceptible to acute kidney injury for detection of role of urinary netrin-1 in prediction of AKI in various groups of patients. (e.g diabetes mellites,preexisting renal disease,volume depleted ….etc)
