Elevated De Ritis Ratio as a Predictor for Acute Kidney Injury after Radical Retropubic Prostatectomy
Acute kidney injury (AKI) is related to mortality and morbidity. The De Ritis ratio, calculated by dividing the aspartate aminotransferase by the alanine aminotransferase, is used as a prognostic indicator. We evaluated risk factors for AKI after radical retropubic prostatectomy (RRP). This retrospe...

description | Acute kidney injury (AKI) is related to mortality and morbidity. The De Ritis ratio, calculated by dividing the aspartate aminotransferase by the alanine aminotransferase, is used as a prognostic indicator. We evaluated risk factors for AKI after radical retropubic prostatectomy (RRP). This retrospective study included patients who performed RRP. Multivariable logistic regression analysis and a receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis were conducted. Other postoperative outcomes were also evaluated. Among the 1415 patients, 77 (5.4%) had AKI postoperatively. The multivariable logistic regression analysis showed that estimated glomerular filtration rate, albumin level, and the De Ritis ratio at postoperative day 1 were risk factors for AKI. The area under the ROC curve of the De Ritis ratio at postoperative day 1 was 0.801 (cutoff = 1.2). Multivariable-adjusted analysis revealed that the De Ritis ratio at ≥1.2 was significantly related to AKI (odds ratio = 8.637, <i>p</i> < 0.001). Postoperative AKI was associated with longer hospitalization duration (11 ± 5 days vs. 10 ± 4 days, <i>p</i> = 0.002). These results collectively show that an elevated De Ritis ratio at postoperative day 1 is associated with AKI after RRP in patients with prostate cancer. |
