ACUTE KIDNEY INJURY

• Highly prevalent among HIV infected individuals particularly in those who have had AIDS-defining illness including opportunistic infection.

• Ten percent of patients experienced at least 1 episode of AKI over a 2-year period. (71 patients out of 754 patients)1

• More than half were attributed to underlying infections,

76% of which were AIDS-defining illness, and ~ 75% needed hospitalization.2.

MEASURING KIDNEY FUNCTION

• The Infectious Disease Society of America recommends that, at the time of HIV diagnosis:

• ALL patients should be assessed for evidence of CKD, and, if present, be appropriately staged for kidney disease. 1

• The best way to measure the GFR involves administering a foreign substance like inulin or radio-isotopes that the glomeruli will filter completely as waste, without reabsorption by the tubules, and measuring its clearance over time. 2

• Studies found the CKD Epidemiology Collaboration (CKD-EPI) creatinine equation to be more accurate than the older Modification of Diet in Renal Disease (MDRD) equation in HIV-infected individuals. 1

• The CKD-EPI equation that uses both creatinine and cystatin C has been found to be somewhat more accurate and precise than equations based on a single biomarker in both the general population and in HIV-infected persons . 2,3,4

EPIDEMIOLOGY OF HIV INFECTION AND KIDNEY DISEASE

• In the USA, 1.5% (range 0.3–3.4%) of dialysis patients HIV infection 0.4% (range 0–1.0%) of dialysis patients AIDS.1

• However, as dialysis patients in the USA have not necessarily undergone routine screening for HIV infection since then, true incidence and prevalence estimates are probably higher than those reported. 2

• Black persons account for 10% of the general population in the USA but account for > 30% of patients with ESRD. 2

• Among persons with HIV infection who receive dialysis, 91% are Black.

COMORBIDITIES OF DIABETES, HYPERTENSION

• Diabetes and hypertension account for more than 70% of all ESRD in the general US population.1

• Aging of the HIV infected population and prolonged exposure to antiretroviral regimens promote the development of diabetes and hypertension2

• Diabetes and hypertension have also been identified as independent risk factors for CKD among HIV-infected individuals in Europe.3

• Predominantly affects white populations, children and young males.1

• Compared with HIVAN, TMA is rare, but HIV-related TMA may account for up to 35% of all TMA cases. 2,3

• Occurs late in the course of HIV infection and its incidence has dropped markedly since the advent of antiretroviral therapy.

• There are no clinical trials to guide the treatment of HIV-TMA.

• Treatment :

• plasma infusion and plasmapheresis,1

• Splenectomy reserved for refractory disease. 1

REVERSE TRANSCRIPTASE INHIBITORS

• There are two main categories of reverse transcriptase inhibitors (RTI).

• Nucleoside (NRTI) and nucleotide (NtRTI) analogs,

• inhibit reverse transcription of viral RNA to DNA by becoming incorporated into the viral DNA termination of DNA chain elongation.

• Non-nucleoside RTI, do not become incorporated into viral DNA but directly binds to and inhibit reverse transcriptase function.

NUCLEOSIDE REVERSE TRANSCRIPTASE INHIBITORS

• Nearly all NRTI capable of causing systemic lactic acidosis with the highest risk being associated with stavudine and didanosine.

• NRTI cause type B lactic acidosis by inhibiting function of DNA polymerase - ɣ reduced cellular mitochondrial DNA content reduced expression of proteins necessary for oxidative phosphorylation increased oxidative stress due to mitochondrial injury.

NUCLEOTIDE REVERSE TRANSCRIPTASE INHIBITORS

• Adefovir and cidofovir, are approved for treatment of hepatitis B and cytomegalovirus, respectively.

• Adefovir, which is approved for use against hepatitis B, was initially developed as an anti-HIV medication, it was never approved for use because of nephrotoxicity when used at high dose (10-fold higher dose than for hep B) necessary for antiHIV efficacy.

• Tenofovir, adefovir and cidofovir are all capable of inducing renal tubular injury.

Abnormal values

- Grade ≥ 1+ proteinuria by dipstick

- Cr clearance or GFR < 60mls/min/1.73m2

- Evaluate proteinuria further with spot urine protein/creatinine ratio

- Perform renal ultrasound

- Consider referral to a nephrologist for further evaluation and

potentially biopsy.

Groups without risk factors for kidney disease should be

followed clinically and reassessed based on the occurrence of signs and symptoms or as clinical

events dictate.

Groups at risk for development of chronic kidney

disease should be rescreened annually.

GROUPS AT RISK

Page 71: The kidneys in HIV infection - WordPress.com · THE KIDNEYS IN HIV INFECTION 3rd National AIDS Conference . OUTLINE • Diagnosis of Renal Disease in HIV patients • Risk Factors

TAKE HOME MESSAGES

• Renal pathology in HIV-infected persons can be caused by a variety of mechanisms leading to a broad spectrum of clinical disease.

• Long-term survival contributes to an increase in HAART-induced metabolic alterations, diabetes, and hypertension and is likely to be associated with an increase in secondary renal damage, such as hypertensive nephrosclerosis and diabetic glomerulopathy.

Page 72: The kidneys in HIV infection - WordPress.com · THE KIDNEYS IN HIV INFECTION 3rd National AIDS Conference . OUTLINE • Diagnosis of Renal Disease in HIV patients • Risk Factors

TAKE HOME MESSAGES

• HAART and other medical therapies for HIV-related infections have been associated with both short- and long-term toxicities including nephrotoxicity.

• Kidney abnormalities tend to develop in the setting of multiple treatments and cannot be always attributed to a specific drug.

• Renal function should therefore be monitored on a regular basis in patients with HIV receiving any antiretroviral agent.

• Early detection of risk factors, systematic screening for chronic causes of CKD, and appropriate referrals for kidney disease management should be advocated for improved patient care.
