A case–control study analyzing mannitol dosing for prevention of cisplatin-induced acute nephrotoxicity
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Background Mannitol is an osmotic diuretic given routinely as part of cisplatin regimens to prevent nephrotoxicity, but there are limited data on the ideal dosage. At our center, three different doses of mannitol are used: 12, 20, and 40 g per cycle for cisplatin doses of ≥50 mg/m 2 . The primary objective was to determine if variations in mannitol dosing significantly influence the incidence of cisplatin-induced acute nephrotoxicity. Methods A case–control study was performed. Electronic records of 1462 consecutive outpatients who received cisplatin at ≥ 50 mg/m 2 per cycle between January 2010 and December 2014 were reviewed. Patients experiencing nephrotoxicity of any grade within 30 days of last cisplatin dose, as defined by NCI CTCAE 4.0, were matched to a minimum of two and maximum of five controls based on the following criteria: age ± 5 years, baseline estimated glomerular filtration rate ± 10 ml/min/1.73 m 2 , cisplatin dose per cycle, and presence of diabetes. Conditional logistic regression was used to identify baseline predictors of cisplatin-induced acute nephrotoxicity. Results Of the 1245 included patients, 237 had nephrotoxicity and 1008 were matched controls. Median baseline estimated glomerular filtration rate for cases and controls were 83 and 80 ml/min/1.73 m 2 , respectively. A total of 3.8% of cases experienced ≥ grade 3 nephrotoxicity. Univariable analysis showed that diabetes, lymphoma, low baseline estimated glomerular filtration rate, and low baseline magnesium level were significantly associated with nephrotoxicity, whereas mannitol dosing did not show any association (odds ratio 1.08; p = 0.29). In multivariable analysis, diabetes and lymphoma retained statistical significance, but baseline estimated glomerular filtration rate and baseline magnesium level showed nonsignificant associations with nephrotoxicity. Conclusions Cisplatin-induced acute nephrotoxicity remains common in patients with good baseline renal function despite preventive measures. Diabetes and lymphoma are predictors of nephrotoxicity, whereas mannitol dosing has no significant influence, suggesting that doses may be standardized across cisplatin regimens.

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.
