Abstract Background Acute kidney injury (AKI) is one of the most common complications after cardiac surgery. However, effective biomarker used for early diagnosis of AKI has not been identified. Platelet-leukocyte aggregates (PLAs) participate in inflammation and coagulation, leading to vascular lesions and tissue destruction. We designed a prospective study to assess whether PLAs can serve as a good biomarker for early diagnosis of AKI after cardiac surgery. Methods Patients with rheumatic heart disease scheduled to undergo valve replacement surgery were enrolled. Blood samples were collected at five timepoints as follows: (a) At baseline. (b) At the end of extracorporeal circulation. (c) Arrival at intensive care unit (ICU). (d) Four-hours after the admission to ICU. (e) Twenty hours after the admission to ICU. After collection, the samples were immediately used for PLAs measurement by flow cytometry. Results A total of 244 patients were registered, and 15 of them were diagnosed with AKI according to the serum creatinine of KDIGO guidelines. The PLAs levels in AKI group were significantly increased 20 h after surgery (two-way repeated measure analysis of variance, p < 0.01) compared with that at baseline. Patients whose preoperative PLAs were higher than 6.8% showed increased risk of developing AKI (multivariate logistic regression; p = 0.01; adjusted odds ratio, 1.05; 95% confidence interval, 1.01–1.09). Conclusion PLAs is an independent risk factor for AKI after valve replacement among patients with rheumatic heart disease.
