U.S., July 23 -- ClinicalTrials.gov registry received information related to the study (NCT07718373) titled 'Early Postoperative L-arginine and Acute Kidney Injury After Cardiac Surgery' on July 14.

Brief Summary: Acute kidney injury (AKI) is common after cardiac surgery, yet effective protective strategies remain limited. L-arginine is the substrate for endogenous nitric oxide (NO) synthesis and may improve renal perfusion and endothelial function. investigators emulated a target trial to evaluate whether early perioperative L-arginine was associated with a lower risk of AKI after cardiac surgery.
