N‐acetylcysteine versus ascorbic acid or N‐acetylcysteine plus ascorbic acid in preventing contrast‐induced nephropathy: A meta‐analysis

Abstract: In conclusion, the prevention effect of NAC administration and VC or NAC + VC administration on CIN was similar in patients undergoing contrast administration. But NAC administration was associated with a significantly lower serum creatinine levels compared to VC and NAC + VC administration.

“…According to the mechanism of ROSpromoted development of CIN, the corresponding removal of ROS has been studied in preclinical and clinical studies. Sodium bicarbonate [46], n-acetylcysteine (NAC) [47], theophylline [48,49], dopamine [50], furosemide [51], mannitol [52], and ascorbic acid [53] have been studied in the clinical prevention of CIN. In preclinical studies, the protective effects of melatonin [54], tocopherol [55,56], and L-carnitine [57] have also been studied with regard to CIN.…”

“…They concluded that there was significant reduction in serum creatinine level after administration of NAC. 7 Some studies have provided evidence for a dose-dependent effect of NAC with more benefits observed when double doses (1,200 mg IV) of NAC were administered to reduce CIN. 8,9 Further, a meta-analysis on NAC for the prevention of CIN indicates that high-dose NAC may decrease the incidence of CIN.…”

“…Second, malnutrition can affect the body's ability to maintain fluid balance (34), which is important for sustaining adequate renal perfusion during imaging procedures that involve contrast dyes. Third, because certain micronutrients, such as vitamins C and E, have been shown to be protective against CIN (35,36), deficiencies of these nutrients in diet may predispose to this disorder. Fourth, a retrospective study involving 2,989 patients with cardiovascular disease reported a higher proportion of individuals with estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) <60 min/mL in those with a low lean mass index compared to those with a high index (37), implicating a potential correlation between a low muscularity and Pooled incidence of contrast-induced nephropathy following coronary angiography or percutaneous coronary intervention.…”
