The patients were divided into two groups according to CIN development (Non-CIN (n=206) and CIN group (n=21)). </span> </p> <p> </p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify;line-height:150%;"> <b> <span style="font-size:10pt;line-height:150%;font-family:Arial, ’sans-serif’;">Results: </span> </b> <span style="font-size:10pt;line-height:150%;font-family:Arial, ’sans-serif’;"> CIN was observed in 9,25%(n=21) of the CSFP patients. Serum U-II level was significantly higher in CIN group than in non-CIN group (6,79±2,2 vs. 3±1,29, p<0.001). One year clinical follow-up findings including all-cause mortality (7(33,3%) vs. 24(11,7%), p=0,013), cardiovascular death(7(33,3%) vs. 18(8,7%), p=0,003) and </span> <span style="font-size:10pt;line-height:150%;font-family:Arial, ’sans-serif’;">Major Adverse cardiovascular events </span> <span style="font-size:10pt;line-height:150%;font-family:Arial, ’sans-serif’;"> (MACE) (10(47,6%) vs. 46(22,4%), p: 0,011) were significantly higher in CIN group. We also performed forward conditional logistic regression analysis and found that U-II (Odds ratio (OR)= 3,983; 95% confidence interval (CI): 2,25 to 7,052; p < 0.001) and Mehran score (OR=1,228, 95% CI: 1,083-1,393, p=0,001) were independently predicted CIN development in patients with CSFP. </span> </p> <p> </p> <p> </p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify;line-height:150%;"> <b> <span style="font-size:10pt;line-height:150%;font-family:Arial, ’sans-serif’;">Conclusions: </span> </b> <span style="font-size:10pt;line-height:150%;font-family:Arial, ’sans-serif’;"> Baseline serum U-II concentrations and higher Mehran scores are independently associated with CIN in CSFP patients. One year clinical follow-up findings including all-cause mortality, cardiovascular death and MACE were significantly higher in CIN group, but stroke and myocardial infarction rates were similar in both groups. <b> </b> </span> </p> <p> <b> </b> </p> <b> </b>}, number={3}, publisher={Sakarya University}, organization={Bezmialem Vakıf Üniversitesi}
