Development and Validation of a Risk Prediction Model for Cardiac Surgery-associated Acute Kidney Injury Based on the Gut-Kidney Axis, Incorporating Gut Microbiota and Their Metabolites

28 de julio de 2026 actualizado por: Peking Union Medical College Hospital
This is a single-center prospective observational cohort study enrolling adult patients scheduled for cardiac surgery. Multi-timepoint clinical indicators, stool samples for gut microbiota and metabolomics profiling and artery blood will be collected before and after surgery. We aim to construct and validate a multi-dimensional preoperative predictive model for CSA-AKI based on clinical, microbial and metabolic signatures. Meanwhile, this research will explore the potential mediating role of the gut-kidney axis in the pathogenesis of cardiac surgery-associated acute kidney injury, and provide novel mechanistic evidence for early risk stratification and intervention of CSA-AKI.

Descripción general del estudio

Descripción detallada

Cardiac surgery-associated acute kidney injury (CSA-AKI) is one of the most common severe postoperative complications after cardiac surgery, which significantly increases the risks of prolonged hospitalization, chronic kidney disease and all-cause mortality. Current single-index risk scoring systems cannot fully predict individual CSA-AKI risk, and the underlying pathological mechanism remains incompletely clarified. Emerging evidence reveals that gut dysbiosis and altered intestinal metabolites participate in kidney injury via the gut-kidney axis, while few prospective cohort studies integrate multi-omics data to develop preoperative predictive models for CSA-AKI.

This prospective cohort study will consecutively recruit adult subjects receiving elective cardiac surgery at Peking Union Medical College Hospital. Basic demographic data, laboratory examinations, intraoperative and postoperative clinical parameters will be recorded at multiple perioperative time points. Fresh stool specimens and artery blood will be collected from all participants before surgery, 24 hours and 7 days after cardiac surgery for 16S rRNA gene sequencing and untargeted metabolomics analysis to characterize gut microbial composition and metabolite profiles.

The primary objective is to develop and internally validate a multi-dimensional predictive model combining clinical variables, gut flora biomarkers and metabolic signatures to stratify preoperative CSA-AKI risk of cardiac surgical patients. Secondary objectives include comparing the differences of intestinal microbiota and metabolites between patients with and without subsequent CSA-AKI, screening key microbial strains and differential metabolites related to postoperative renal impairment, and elucidate the molecular pathways of the gut-kidney axis mediating CSA-AKI occurrence.

All participants will receive standardized perioperative management following clinical guidelines. Subjects will be followed up until 7 days after surgery to identify CSA-AKI events defined by standardized serum creatinine criteria. The performance of the established prediction model will be evaluated by area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC), calibration curve and decision curve analysis. All specimen testing and statistical analyses will be conducted following standardized omics and clinical research workflows. This study is approved by the institutional ethics committee, and written informed consent will be obtained from all enrolled patients prior to sample and data collection.

Población de estudio

This single-center prospective observational cohort will consecutively enroll adult patients aged ≥18 years who receive elective cardiac surgery at Peking Union Medical College Hospital. Eligible subjects include patients undergoing valve surgery, coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG), or combined cardiac procedures.All enrolled participants will complete standardized perioperative data collection and serial stool sample and blood collection at preoperative baseline, postoperative day 1 and postoperative day 7. Subjects will be followed up until postoperative day 7 to identify CSA-AKI events based on KDIGO 2012 criteria.

¿Qué mide el estudio?

Medidas de resultado primarias

Medida de resultado
Medida Descripción
Periodo de tiempo
Predictive performance of multi-dimensional gut microbiota-metabolite model for postoperative CSA-AKI
Periodo de tiempo: From preoperative sample collection to postoperative day 7 (CSA-AKI confirmation)
The primary outcome is the discriminative ability (AUC) of the combined preoperative gut microbiota and metabolomic signature model to predict cardiac surgery-associated acute kidney injury (CSA-AKI). CSA-AKI is diagnosed per KDIGO 2012 criteria: serum creatinine rises ≥0.3 mg/dL within 48h postoperatively or ≥1.5-fold baseline within 7 days after cardiac surgery. The predictive performance of the multi-omics combined model will be quantified by the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC-ROC).
From preoperative sample collection to postoperative day 7 (CSA-AKI confirmation)

Medidas de resultado secundarias

Medida de resultado
Medida Descripción
Periodo de tiempo
Incidence of cardiac surgery-associated acute kidney injury (CSA-AKI) within 7 days after cardiac surgery
Periodo de tiempo: 7 days after cardiac surgery
CSA-AKI is diagnosed in accordance with the KDIGO 2012 AKI standard: serum creatinine increases by ≥0.3 mg/dL within 48 hours postoperatively, or serum creatinine reaches ≥1.5 times the preoperative baseline value within 7 days after cardiac surgery. The incidence rate is calculated as the proportion of patients who meet the CSA-AKI diagnostic criteria among all enrolled subjects.
7 days after cardiac surgery
Severity grading of CSA-AKI according to KDIGO 2012 staging criteria
Periodo de tiempo: 7 days after cardiac surgery
For subjects diagnosed with CSA-AKI within postoperative 7 days, stratify patients into KDIGO Stage 1, Stage 2 and Stage 3 based on the maximum serum creatinine elevation during follow-up, and compare the distribution of AKI severity grades in the cohort.
7 days after cardiac surgery
