Abstract
Background
Proteinuria is a marker of poor outcomes in several diseases; however, few studies have been conducted to explore the prognostic value of proteinuria, assessed by urine dipstick test, for clinical outcomes in patients with type B acute aortic dissection (TBAD) undergoing thoracic endovascular aortic repair (TEVAR).
Methods
Consecutive patients with TBAD undergoing TEVAR were enrolled from January 2010 to July 2015. Proteinuria was defined as trace or higher, according to the results of urine dipstick testing. Associations among proteinuria and adverse events were evaluated.
Results
In total, 671 patients with a mean age of 44±15 years were included in the analysis. Proteinuria was detected in 281 patients (41.9%) before TEVAR. Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that C-reactive protein and impaired renal function were independent predictors for proteinuria. During hospitalization, 21 patients died. In-hospital mortality was higher in patients with proteinuria (1.5% vs. 5.3%, p=0.005). After a median 3.4 years follow up, the post-TEVAR death rate was 10.4% (85 patients were lost to follow-up). The long-term cumulative mortality was significantly higher in patients with proteinuria (17.2% vs. 8.2%, log-rank=11.36, p=0.001). Multivariate Cox survival modeling indicated that proteinuria was significantly associated with long-term death, after adjustment for potential confounding risk factors (HR=1.92, p=0.012).
Conclusions
Pre-TEVAR proteinuria was identified as a prognostic marker in patients with TBAD and has potential for application as a convenient and simple risk assessment method before TEVAR.
