Acute Changes in Kidney Function and Outcomes Following an Acute Myocardial Infarction: Insights from PARADISE-MI

Authors' conclusion

Following acute MI, patients assigned to sacubitril/valsartan had a higher frequency of initial increases in serum creatinine at 1 week, compared with ramipril. In adjusted models, initial increases in serum creatinine with either treatment were not associated with adverse cardiovascular outcomes or changes in longer-term kidney function.

Creatinine increase by SBP decline (subgroup)

Higher odds with sacubitril/valsartan appeared restricted to patients with greater SBP decline
  • Interaction p = 0.05 (≥26.5 μmol/L) and 0.001 (≥44 μmol/L)

Association of acute creatinine increase with CV composite (CV death, first HF hospitalization or outpatient HF), all-cause mortality and longer-term estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) slope

Similar across randomized arms
P for interaction > 0.6 for all
Neither increase ≥26.5 nor ≥44 μmol/L associated with higher risk of CV outcomes, all-cause mortality or eGFR slope differences
  • Multivariable Cox regression
