Activation of the renin–angiotensin system contributes significantly to the pathophysiology of oliguria in patients undergoing posterior spinal fusion
Bibliographic record
Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: This study was undertaken to investigate the role played by antidiuretic hormone (ADH), the renin-angiotensin system and atrial natriuretic factor (ANF) in the oliguria in patients undergoing spinal fusion. METHODS: Sixteen patients undergoing posterior spinal fusion using isoflurane and fentanyl (n = 8) or sufentanil (n = 8) had renin, aldosterone, ADH and ANF measurements. RESULTS: Compared to the non-oliguric patients, the oliguric patients had a higher number of fused vertebrae 10.5 +/- 1.3 vs. 9.0 +/- 0.5 (P = 0.01) and higher renin values at 12h (3.3 +/- 3.2 vs. 0.7 +/- 0.6 ng L(-1) s(-1), P = 0.04). Hormonal values that had a significant correlation with intraoperative diuresis were: renin at 0.5 h (r2 = 0.26, P = 0.04), aldosterone at 0.5 h (r2 = 0.30, P = 0.03) and ANF at 0.5 h (r2 = 0.32, P = 0.02). Those that had a significant correlation with the mean postoperative diuresis were: renin at 6 h (r2 = 0.29, P = 0.03), 8h (r2 = 0.26, P = 0.04) and 12h (r2 = 0.31, P = 0.03), aldosterone at 6h (r2 = 0.54, P = 0.001), 8h (r2 = 0.40, P = 0.01) and 12h (r2 = 0.32, P = 0.03), ADH at 24h (r2 = 0.38, P = 0.01) and ANF at 6h (r2 = 0.26, P = 0.045). Using stepwise regression, excluding hormonal values, only two continuous variables had a significant correlation with the mean postoperative diuresis: the number of fused vertebrae (P = 0.02) and the length of surgery (P = 0.02). CONCLUSION: Activation of the renin-angiotensin system is the major cause of the early intraoperative oliguria. ADH and the renin-angiotensin system are both involved in the pathophysiology of postoperative oliguria in patients undergoing spinal fusion.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
