Table 2 Creatinine level evolution, divided by the presence or absence of rapidly declining renal function before the procedure—values are expressed as median (inter-quartile range) for the respective population
From: Outcomes after stenting of renal artery stenosis in patients with high-risk clinical features
Rapidly declining renal function N = 10 | Stable renal function N = 8 | p value | |
|---|---|---|---|
Baseline creatinine (mg/dL) | 1.47 (1.25–2.12) | 1.76 (1.03–2.38) | NS |
Pre-procedure creatinine (mg/dL) | 3.98 (2.50–4.65) | 1.63 (1.14–2.60) | 0.02 |
Postprocedural peak creatinine (mg/dL) | 2.37 (2.05–3.08) | 1.70 (1.60–2.77) | NS |
Delta (peak—pre-procedure, mg/dL) | − 0.12 (− 1.90–0.64) | 0.25 (− 0.07–1.05) | NS |
Creatinine at discharge | 2.02 (1.29–2.75) | 1.67 (1.32–2.48) | NS |
Delta (discharge—pre-procedure, mg/dL) | − 1.75 (− 2.68 to − 0.21) | 0.06 (− 0.09–0.25) | 0.05 |
Delta (discharge—baseline, mg/dL) | 0.32 (− 0.12–1.11) | 0.18 (− 0.10–0.42) | NS |
