Iopromide and Iodixanol in the Development of Postoperative Contrast Nephropathy in Patients with Renal Insufficiency: A Meta-Analysis.

In order to compare the effects of iopromide and isoxazole on postoperative contrast-induced nephropathy in patients with renal insufficiency, the paper searches for randomized controlled trials and retrospective cohort studies comparing the effects of iopromide and iodixanol on renal function in patients with renal insufficiency after surgery. The data are extracted from eligible studies. We tried to assess the incidence of contrast-agent nephropathy, preoperative and postoperative serum creatinine indicators, and mortality. This paper includes 8 studies with a total of 1243 patients. The incidence of contrast-induced nephropathy in the iopromide group is higher than that in the iodixanol group, and there is no significant difference between the two groups in postoperative mortality and preoperative serum creatinine expression. Sensitivity analysis and funnel chart show that our research is robust and has low publication bias. Our research shows that in patients with renal insufficiency, the incidence of contrast-medium nephropathy in the iopromide group is higher than that in the iodixanol group. Iodixanol is safer and has less effect on patients' serum creatinine levels.
