Patients were divided into CA-AKI group (n = 234) and non-CA-AKI group (n = 948). CA-AKI was defined as an increase in serum creatinine from the baseline level (≥ 25% or ≥ 0.5 mg/dL) 48- 72 hours after contrast exposure. All subjects were tested for serum C1q levels when they were admitted to the hospital.Results: Among the 1182 patients undergoing emergency PCI, 234 patients (19.80%) developed CA-AKI. The level of preoperative serum complement C1q in the CA-AKI group was significantly higher than that in the non-CA-AKI group. Logistic regression and restricted cubic spline analyses showed that the incidence of CA-AKI was positively associated with the serum C1q level pre-PCI. Univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses showed that C1q was an independent predictor of whether CA-AKI occurred after emergency PCI. The area under the curve (AUC) of the C1q was 0.703 [95% confidence interval (CI) 0.667- 0.739] in patients receiving emergency PCI. CA-AKI model included the following three predictors: C1q, eGFR, and IABP use. The AUC of forecast probability was 0.718 [95% CI 0.682- 0.754].Conclusion: In patients receiving emergency PCI procedure, a high C1q level before PCI is associated with the increased risk of CA-AKI.Keywords: complement C1q, contrast-associated acute kidney injury, percutaneous coronary intervention, coronary heart disease, inflammation
