Özet

Aim. To evaluate the effects of cytokines, biochemical parameters and demographic features on clinical outcomes of acute renal failure (ARF). Patients and Methods. 59 patients with acute renal failure (28 men, 31 women) were enrolled to the study. Cytokines, biochemical parameters, and complete blood count were measured. Patients were divided into two groups: as survivors (group 1, n = 46) and nonsurvivors (group 2, n = 13). Results. Mean age of patients were 52.3 +/- 17.9 years. 46 patients survived (77.9%) and 13 patients died (22. 1 %). There was a statistically significant relationship between IL-2R, IL-6, and TNF-oc levels and mortality rates (p = 0.004, p = 0.016, p = 0.020, respectively) and between TC levels and mortality rates (p = 0.041). In multivariable logistic regression analysis, the effects of proinflammatory cytokines (IL- I beta, IL-2R, IL-6, TNF alpha, CRP, and ESR) on the clinical outcomes in ARF was observed to be statistically significant (r = 0.341, p = 0.005). Conclusion. We realized that in totally demographic features (male gender, advanced age, poor nutritional status), biochemical parameters (TC, albumin, and hemoglobin) and cytokine levels (IL-2R, IL-6, TNF-oc), CRP and ESR may be predictive factors for mortality in patients with ARF.
