Iodinated CMs are excreted mainly by glomerular filtration<span class="elsevierStyleSup">2</span>. There is thus, a significant correlation between both body and renal clearances of contrast media and glomerular filtration rate<span class="elsevierStyleSup">3</span>.</p><p class="elsevierStylePara">CM induced nephropathy or with a contemporary term “contrast induced acute kidney injury” (CIAKI) is a wellknown and common cause of hospital-acquired renal failure. Although the clinical significance is variable, several studies have demonstrated markedly increased mortality, even up to 27%<span class="elsevierStyleSup">4</span>. Therefore, it is imperative to identify patients at risk for this disease. The definition of CIAKI includes absolute (>0.5mg/dl) or relative increase (>25%) in serum creatinine (sCr) at 48-72 h after exposure to a contrast agent compared to baseline serum creatinine values, when alternative explanations for renal impairment have been excluded<span class="elsevierStyleSup">5</span>.</p><p class="elsevierStylePara">Recently, practical risk scoring systems have been proposed for the prevention of CIAKI instead of only screening patients with sCr. One of the major contributors in these scoring systems is naturally the level of renal function. Measurement of the glomerular filtration rate (GFR) is the best sensitive test to assess the renal function, but is not easy to obtain<span class="elsevierStyleSup">6</span>. Instead, several authors and organizations support using estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR; estimated GFR from sCr by a regression formula), preferably calculated with Modification of Diet in Renal Disease (MDRD) formula<span class="elsevierStyleSup">7,8</span>. Although, MDRD eGFR has been developed in a population consisting predominantly of patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) and reduced GFR, it has also been applied in patient populations with mostly normal kidney function, including CIAKI followups<span class="elsevierStyleSup">9</span>. Moreover, some authors have found eGFR to be one of the significant risk markers in the development of CIAKI<span class="elsevierStyleSup">9,10</span>.</p><p class="elsevierStylePara">We hypothesized that MDRD eGFR might be limited in patients with rapidly changing kidney function, such as with acute coronary artery disease, unregulated DM or unregulated hypertension, nevertheless candidate to CM exposure and carriying the risk of CIAKI in various levels. Hence, the primary objective of the study was to evaluate individual role of the MDRD eGFR in the risk stratification of CIAKI in such patients. First, we sought agreement between measured GFR (mGFR) and the MDRD eGFR. Next, patients were classified for CIAKI using first eGFR and then mGFR values and results were compared.</p><p class="elsevierStylePara"><span class="elsevierStyleBold">MATERIALS AND METHODS</span></p><p class="elsevierStylePara"><span class="elsevierStyleBold">Patients</span></p><p class="elsevierStylePara">In this prospective study, 32 consecutive Caucasians patients (19 men, 13 women), who had been hospitalized within 3 recent days and candidate to have an X-ray examination with iodinated CM were included into the study. Their common characteristic was being in nonsteady state condition and necessitating hospital care due to various clinical problems (table 1). Criteria of nonsteady state condition, as were accepted in the present work were having unregulated hypertension or unregulated glycemia or myocardial infarction or arrithmia at hospital admission. Mean hospitalization time was 2.2 ± 0.4 days prior to pre-CM application. Patients recently (within two months) received CM or known to have chronic renal diseases or age <18 years were omitted. No modification has been made in individual treatment protocol of any patient for this study. No particular prophylactic medication was used prior to CM application, other than routine hydration with intravenous administration of 500 ml NaCl 0.9% before and after injection of the contrast agent.</p><p class="elsevierStylePara">The Ethics Committee of Faculty approved the study and written informed consent was obtained from all patients.</p><p class="elsevierStylePara">X-ray examinations were cardiac catheterization in 18 patients and tomography in 14 patients, realized by using one of non-ionic monomeric type CM (iopromide, iopamidol or iomeprol). Mean CM volume was; 90.2 ± 16.8 ml (range: 60-145 ml).</p><p class="elsevierStylePara">Pre-risk scoring for CIAKI was realized by using a method published by Mehran et al.<span class="elsevierStyleSup">9</span>. In short, patients were  scored according to the pre-defined variables, such as age, diabetes mellitus, anemia, hypotension, CM volume, mGFR, as described in the method. Next, patients were categorized as low risk (score <5), moderate risk (6-10) and high risk (11-15) by using first mGFR, then eGFR for the score calculation.</p><p class="elsevierStylePara"><span class="elsevierStyleBold">GFR measurement</span></p><p class="elsevierStylePara">Plasma clearance of diethylene triamine pentaacetic acid (DTPA), labeled with Tc-99m was realized in GFR measurements by using two blood samples and slopeintercept method, before and after CM applications (at 48 h). Tc-99m DTPA was prepared with fresh pertechnetate and a current DTPA kit (Pentacis<span class="elsevierStyleSup">®</span>, CIS bio international, France). The Tc-99m DTPA labeling efficiency was greater than 98%. Following its I.V. administration (37 MBq) blood samples (5 ml) were taken at 2 and 4 hours to heparinized syringe, plasma was separated and radioactivity was assayed in a well type gamma counter (Berthold, Germany). Then, the absolute measured GFR values were obtained using the following equation.</p><p class="elsevierStylePara">Clearance<span class="elsevierStyleInf">(Tc-99m DTPA)</span> = D x ln(P<span class="elsevierStyleInf">1</span>/P<span class="elsevierStyleInf">2</span>) / T<span class="elsevierStyleInf">2</span>-T<span class="elsevierStyleInf">1</span> x exp (T<span class="elsevierStyleInf">1</span> ln P<span class="elsevierStyleInf">2</span>)-(T<span class="elsevierStyleInf">2</span> ln P<span class="elsevierStyleInf">1</span>) / T<span class="elsevierStyleInf">2</span>-T<span class="elsevierStyleInf">1</span></p><p class="elsevierStylePara">Where, D = injected dose (counts/min); P<span class="elsevierStyleInf">1</span> = plasma activity at T<span class="elsevierStyleInf">1</span> (counts/min/ml); P<span class="elsevierStyleInf">2</span> = plasma activity at T<span class="elsevierStyleInf">2</span> (counts/min/ml).</p><p class="elsevierStylePara">Those values were normalized to body surface area and corrected according to Brochner-Mortensen method<span class="elsevierStyleSup">11-13</span>.</p><p class="elsevierStylePara">Precision of the method, by means of coefficient of variation (CV) was 3.4%. It was calculated by measurement twice GFR in three healthy volunteers within 48 hours.</p><p class="elsevierStylePara">SCr concentrations were measured in each patient before and after X-ray examination by colorimetric analysis, based on the Jaffe rate (alkaline picrate) method using autoanalyzer (Beckman Coulter, Synchron LX20, USA). Analytical range was 0.1-25 mg/dl (8.84-2210 μmol/L) and the mid-term (6 months) precision (CV) of low and high control values of the laboratory were 6.2 % and 4.3%, respectively.</p><p class="elsevierStylePara">eGFR calculation; eGFR was calculated using the modified MDRD formula as; eGFR (mL/min/1.73 m<span class="elsevierStyleSup">2</span>) = 175 x (creatinine, mg/dl)-<span class="elsevierStyleSup">1.154</span> x (Age, years.)-<span class="elsevierStyleSup">0.203</span> (x 0.742 if female)<span class="elsevierStyleSup">14,15</span>.</p><p class="elsevierStylePara"><span class="elsevierStyleBold">Statistical analysis</span></p><p class="elsevierStylePara">Non-parametric two related samples test (Wilcoxon) was used in comparison of pre- and post-CM serum  parameters, mGFR and eGFR values. Relationship and method agreement between mGFR and eGFR was sought by linear correlation, regression and Bland&Altman analysis, respectively. The receiver operating characteristic (ROC) analysis was used to test sensitivity and specificity of eGFR to discriminate patients with decreased renal function (mGFR <60 ml/min/1.73 m<span class="elsevierStyleSup">2</span>). Chi-square test with Yates' correction for continuity was used for comparison of risk categories of CIAKI by using eGFR or mGFR. Significance level was set to p <0.05 for all tests.</p><p class="elsevierStylePara"><span class="elsevierStyleBold">RESULTS</span></p><p class="elsevierStylePara">Being mostly at the beginning of the hospitalization period, pre-CM as well as post-CM mGFR values were dispersed in the study group with a wide range of renal function, from 22.7 to 179.8 ml/min/1.73m<span class="elsevierStyleSup">2</span> and from 27.9 to 175.9 ml/min/1.73m<span class="elsevierStyleSup">2</span>, respectively. Three patients had pre-CM sCr ≥1.4 mg/dl, where as 14 patients had mGFR <60 ml/min/1.73 m<span class="elsevierStyleSup">2</span>. However, pre-CM sCr was between 0.8 and 1.2 mg/dl in 60% of patients.</p><p class="elsevierStylePara">Mean values of sCr, BUN, mGFR and eGFR were shown in the table 2. At first look, comparison of pre- and post-CM values of sCr, BUN, mGFR and eGFR did not yield statistically significant differences, most probably due to high SD values (Wilcoxon paired rank test). Comparison of mean mGFR with eGFR values did not show differences as well (table 2).</p><p class="elsevierStylePara">Statistically significant, but a moderate linear relationship was observed between pre-CM mGFR and eGFR (r = 0.47, p<0.001). When mGFR defined as dependent variable, the regression equation was y = 0.72 x + 12.8, with R<span class="elsevierStyleSup">2</span> = 0.23 (p <0.001) (figure 1). Post-CM relationship was very similar with y = 0.62 x + 17.5 and R<span class="elsevierStyleSup">2</span> = 0.25 (p <0.001).</p><p class="elsevierStylePara">The agreement between two methods was evaluated by Bland and Altman analysis, which showed large limits of agreement between mGFR and eGFR (-80.3 to 55.2) with a mean difference of -12.5 ml/min/1.73 m<span class="elsevierStyleSup">2</span> (figure 2). This means that any value of mGFR would be estimated as 80.3 ml less or 55.2 ml more by eGFR. On the other hand, disagreement was a type of proportional, as the difference was significantly related to the magnitude of estimation; eGFR overestimated mGFR at lower degree of renal function, while underestimated higher values.</p><p class="elsevierStylePara">The ability of MDRD eGFR to discriminate a decrease in renal function was assessed by ROC analysis. When mGFR = 60 ml/min/1.73 m<span class="elsevierStyleSup">2</span> was selected as a cutoff value, AUC for eGFR was 0.80 (95% CI, 0.62-0.92). The eGFR has a sensitivity of 29% and a specificity of 100% in detecting patients with a decreased renal function, as demonstrated in figure 3. The pre-exam mGFR <60 ml was calculated as if >60 ml in ten cases (10/14, 71%) with the eGFR  formula.</p><p class="elsevierStylePara">Range of the CIAKI risk score in the study group was 1 to 13. The distribution of patients according to CIAKI risk categories is shown in table 3. There were 13 patients in low, 17 in moderate and 2 in high risk group when taking in consideration mGFR values. Re-stratification using eGFR was resulted in a group change for four patients; from<br></br>moderate risk to low risk group. One patient switched also from moderate to high risk group (table 3). Yet, the difference between mGFR and eGFR risk groups did not attain to a significant level by Chi-square test (p = 0.45).</p><p class="elsevierStylePara">On the other hand, more than 0.5 mg/dl increase in sCr was recorded in two patients after CM application. According to common definition, these patients had CIAKI. However, mGFR values were stable. Common features of them were both were using diuretics and anti-aggregant (salicylic acid) and had significantly decreased pre-CM mGFR values. First patient was hospitalized for unregulated hypertension; her pre- and post-CM sCr values were 0.70 and 1.60 mg/dl (BUN; 10 and 12 mg/dl), but mGFR values were comparable as 43.4 and 49.9 ml/min/1.73 m<span class="elsevierStyleSup">2</span>, respectively. eGFR values were 114.3 and 44.0 ml/min/1.73 m<span class="elsevierStyleSup">2</span>. Second patient was azotemic (BUN; 45 and 77 mg/dl) with unregulated diabetes mellitus and hypertension. While pre-exam vs. post-exam sCr and eGFR values were 1.00 vs. 1.60 mg/dl and 72.9 vs. 42.4 ml/min/1.73 m<span class="elsevierStyleSup">2</span>, respectively, mGFR remained again relatively constant as 22.7 vs. 31.5 ml/min/1.73 m<span class="elsevierStyleSup">2</span>. Followup of sCr and BUN revealed fluctuations and normalized by the end of their hospital stay and they did not need hemodialysis. Both patients left the hospital within a week and did not have abnormal sCr values in 6 months in their routine examinations. Risk score of first patient was 3 (belonging to low risk group) and second patient’s was 8 (moderate risk group).</p><p class="elsevierStylePara"><span class="elsevierStyleBold">DISCUSSION</span></p><p class="elsevierStylePara">The present study suggests that eGFR MDRD may cause erroneous CIAKI classification in nonsteady state patients. CIAKI is an important adverse event of diagnostic and therapeutic intravascular application of iodinated contrast agents. In the general population, the incidence of CIAKI is estimated to be 1% to 6%<span class="elsevierStyleSup">16</span>. However, the risk may be as high as 50% in some patient subgroups. Such as, patients with diabetes and pre-existing renal impairment are at high risk, and CIAKI incidence increases in patients with multiple comorbidities<span class="elsevierStyleSup">1,16,17</span>. On the other hand, recent improvements in contrast agents and radiological imaging tools have resulted in an increasing number of patients undergoing contrast media-enhanced examinations, either they are at steady state or not. Approximately 80 million doses of iodinated CM were prescribed worldwide in 2003, probably making CM one of the most commonly used medications<span class="elsevierStyleSup">18</span>. Thus, in recent years predictor models have been proposed to determine risks of CIAKI. We have used one of them, a pre-risk scoring system, published by Mehran et al.<span class="elsevierStyleSup">9</span>. They found that contrast-medium nephropathy was strongly associated with an increased risk score: the incidence was 7.5% among patients with a low score and 57.3% among those with a high risk score. Although this method was based on a patient population who had undergone to percutaneous coronary intervention (like some of our patients in coronary angiography), 90% of the patients in that study had sCr <1.5 mg/dl, so did our patients. This risk scoring system was chosen especially because of the studied patient population in the model, with almost free of chronic kidney disease.</p><p class="elsevierStylePara">Among the stated individual risk factors (patient age, diabetes, hypotension, anemia, cardiac heart failure, CM volume, level of sCR) decreased renal function was remarked to be the most significant one<span class="elsevierStyleSup">8</span>. Common approach to assess renal function before administration of CM is to obtain sCr. This is probably because of the positive correlation between the dose of CM and the rise in sCr<span class="elsevierStyleSup">19</span>.</p><p class="elsevierStylePara">On the other hand, eGFR has been recommended instead of sCr in the National Kidney Foundation guidelines, indicating that it normalizes at the same time renal function for total muscle mass. It was also stated that measurement of creatinine clearance using a timed (e.g., 24-hour) urine collection for assessment of the GFR is not more reliable than estimation using a prediction equation.<span class="elsevierStyleSup">7</span> Hence, there has been extensive work on a noninvasive and accurate estimation method of GFR in recent years. A number of easy-to-use mathematical equations, incorporating different anthropometrical variables in addition to biological parameters, have been developed to predict GFR. The MDRD study equation was developed in 1999<span class="elsevierStyleSup">20</span>. The original equation was; eGFR = 186 x (sCr)<span class="elsevierStyleSup">-1.154</span> x (age)<span class="elsevierStyleSup">-0.203</span> x 0.742 (if the subject is female) or x1.212 (if the subject is black). This equation was reexpressed in 2005 for use with a standardized serum creatinine assay, as eGFR = 175 x (standardized sCr) <span class="elsevierStyleSup">-1.154</span>x(age)<span class="elsevierStyleSup">-0.203</span> x 0.742 (if the subject is female) or x 1.212 (if the subject is black)<span class="elsevierStyleSup">15</span>. MDRD eGFR formula has been shown to work well in patients at steady state. Indeed, it was derived from patients with chronic kidney disease who were at steady state (mean GFR, 40 ml/min/1.73 m<span class="elsevierStyleSup">2</span>) and had renal functional changes over several months and years. However, renal function may show fluctuation in recovery, nonsteady state patients along with the cardiovascular dynamics.</p><p class="elsevierStylePara">Our aim was not to assess accuracy of the MDRD eGFR, but to observe, although in a small scale, its impact on the risk stratification of CIAKI in nonsteady state patients. We have not met a similar published data in the literature. In this respect, we first evaluated the method agreement between mGFR and eGFR in patients needing hospital care, since CM receiving patients are not only out patients or free of any renal or cardiac dysfunctions. Secondly, we compared performance of MDRD eGFR in identification of patients with decreased renal function. A moderate relationship was observed between mGFR and eGFR (r = 0.47) and it seemed that there was a disagreement between two methods in this patient population. Poggio et al. also reported that MDRD eGFR would have cause erroneous results in nonsteady state conditions inherent in acute kidney insufficiency<span class="elsevierStyleSup">21</span>. However, our patient population differered in the sense that none of them had acute kidney insufficiency before CM receiving.</p><p class="elsevierStylePara">In general, prediction formulas (or regression equations) always carry more or less bias depending on the study population. Hence, it is not surprising to see contradictory reports in the literature. In a recent meta-analysis, it was concluded that MDRD eGFR equation showed little bias for GFR estimates <60 ml/min/1.73 m<span class="elsevierStyleSup">2</span> in the pooled data base, underestimated mGFR for levels of eGFR between 60 and 119 ml/min/1.73 m<span class="elsevierStyleSup">2</span>, and overestimated mGFR for levels of eGFR >120 ml/min/1.73 m<span class="elsevierStyleSup">2</span> (as compared to I-125 iothalamate clearance)<span class="elsevierStyleSup">22</span>. Another report concluded that MDRD eGFR underestimated mGFR (by Tc-99m DTPA clearance) in Chinese patients with near-normal renal function and overestimated in patients with chronic kidney disease stages 4-5<span class="elsevierStyleSup">23</span>. In the present study, it can be seen from Bland&Altman analysis (figure 2) that eGFR underestimated mGFR values in normal ranges and overestimated in lower rates. Overestimation of GFR in lower rates led to insufficient discrimination of patients with decreased renal function, as it can be seen in the ROC analysis (figure 3). This also led to misclassification of some patients for CIAKI (Table 3). One of the working group reported that the risk of CIAKI is elevated and becomes clinically important when the baseline serum creatinine level is ≥1.3 mg/dl (≥114.9 μmol/L) in men and ≥1.0 mg/dl (≥88.4 μmol/L) in women, equivalent to eGFR ≥60 ml/min per 1.73m<span class="elsevierStyleSup">2</span>. <span class="elsevierStyleSup">8</span> When we selected eGFR <60 ml/min as a cutoff value in the present study, four patients have been classified as having low risk instead of moderate risk.</p><p class="elsevierStylePara">Clinical presentation in CIAKI is mostly asymptomatic, but in some patients acute renal failure with necessity of hemodialysis can occur. In the present study two patients had CIAKI by definition. However, mGFR was relatively stable, but decreased, although both had normal sCr values before CM administration. It is known that in case of significantly decreased GFR, sCr secretion increases, causing apparently a normal sCr level. Another explanation for this discrepancy would be that both patients were using salicylic acid, which can inhibit secretion of creatinine by the proximal tubule<span class="elsevierStyleSup">24</span>. Other than salicylates, several drugs, such as cimetidine, trimethoprim and pyrimethamine have been reported to increase plasma creatinine by the same mechanism without influencing its glomerular filtration<span class="elsevierStyleSup">24</span>. Finally, MDRD eGFR has been developed chiefly in a populations consisting predominantly of patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) and reduced GFR. However, none of our patients had the diagnosis of CKD prior to CM application.<span class="elsevierStyleBold"></span></p><p class="elsevierStylePara"><span class="elsevierStyleBold">Study limitations</span>; The present study was realized with a limited number of patients due to ethical reasons as GFR measurement by Tc-99m-DTPA which is not a commonly accepted indication for the CIAKI follow ups. This has led to even small numbers of patients in the CIAKI risk groups and hampered the statistical significance. On the other hand, the renal function could have been impacted in different degrees by drugs or the concurrent illness including acute myocardial infarction, anemia, etc. in the study population. However, this type of patients will always have X-ray examinations with contrast exposure. This fact reminds a need for better real time biomarkers of renal function in such patients and one may have at least an idea about the place of MDRD eGFR in the follow up of non steady state patients owing to the present study results.</p><p class="elsevierStylePara"><span class="elsevierStyleBold">CONCLUSION</span></p><p class="elsevierStylePara">It seems that MDRD eGFR differs from mGFR.

The role of this formula is not clear in the risk stratification of contrast induced acute kidney injury (CIAKI) in nonsteady state patients. Aim: Comparative evaluation of the MDRD eGFR in risk stratification of CIAKI. Method: GFR was measured twice (preand post-examination) by Tc-99m-DTPA, along with serum levels of urea nitrogen and creatinine in 32 patients (mean age ± SD; 60.1 ± 13.2 years) needing hospital care for various reasons and underwent to x-ray examination with contrast media (mean; 90.2 ± 16.8 ml). eGFR was calculated by the dedicated formula. Agreement between measured GFR (mGFR) and MDRD eGFR was assessed and patients were scored and stratified for CIAKI by using first mGFR, then eGFR and results were compared. Results: A moderate correlation was obtained between mGFR and eGFR (r = 0.47, p <0.001) and the difference was not significant. However, Bland&Altman analysis revealed large limits of agreement between mGFR and eGFR (-80.3 to 55.2) with a mean difference of -12.5 ml/min/1.73m2. In ROC analysis, when mGFR values were classified as normal (>60 ml/min/1.73m2) and decreased (<60ml/min/1.73m2), AUC was 0.80 (95%CI; 0.62-0.92) for eGFR, with a sensitivity of 29% and specificity of 100%. Furthermore, the risk group categorization, using eGFR instead of mGFR was resulted in a group change for four patients (13%); from moderate to low risk group. Conclusion: It seems that MDRD eGFR differs from mGFR. In nonsteady state patients CIAKI classification using eGFR should be considered with caution.</p>" ] ] "multimedia" => array:6 [ 0 => array:8 [ "identificador" => "fig1" "etiqueta" => "Tab. 1" "tipo" => "MULTIMEDIAFIGURA" "mostrarFloat" => true "mostrarDisplay" => false "copyright" => "Elsevier España" "figura" => array:1 [ 0 => array:4 [ "imagen" => "40918078_t1_pag398.jpg" "Alto" => 289 "Ancho" => 827 "Tamanyo" => 52702 ] ] "descripcion" => array:1 [ "en" => "Patients' characteristics and clinical data" ] ] 1 => array:8 [ "identificador" => "fig2" "etiqueta" => "Tab. 2" "tipo" => "MULTIMEDIAFIGURA" "mostrarFloat" => true "mostrarDisplay" => false "copyright" => "Elsevier España" "figura" => array:1 [ 0 => array:4 [ "imagen" => "40918078_t2_pag400.jpg" "Alto" => 116 "Ancho" => 827 "Tamanyo" => 22489 ] ] "descripcion" => array:1 [ "en" => "Pre- and post-exam serum parameters, GFR and eGFR values in the study group (mean±SD)" ] ] 2 => array:7 [ "identificador" => "fig3" "etiqueta" => "Fig. 1" "tipo" => "MULTIMEDIAFIGURA" "mostrarFloat" => true "mostrarDisplay" => false "copyright" => "Elsevier España" "figura" => array:1 [ 0 => array:4 [ "imagen" => "40918078_f1_pag400.jpg" "Alto" => 363 "Ancho" => 397 "Tamanyo" => 18858 ] ] ] 3 => array:7 [ "identificador" => "fig4" "etiqueta" => "Fig. 2" "tipo" => "MULTIMEDIAFIGURA" "mostrarFloat" => true "mostrarDisplay" => false "copyright" => "Elsevier España" "figura" => array:1 [ 0 => array:4 [ "imagen" => "40918078_f2_pag400.jpg" "Alto" => 363 "Ancho" => 397 "Tamanyo" => 22442 ] ] ] 4 => array:8 [ "identificador" => "fig5" "etiqueta" => "Tab. 3" "tipo" => "MULTIMEDIAFIGURA" "mostrarFloat" => true "mostrarDisplay" => false "copyright" => "Elsevier España" "figura" => array:1 [ 0 => array:4 [ "imagen" => "40918078_t3_pag401.jpg" "Alto" => 154 "Ancho" => 827 "Tamanyo" => 22369 ] ] "descripcion" => array:1 [ "en" => "Distribution of patients in risk categories of contrast induced acute kidney injury by using eGFR or mGFR" ] ] 5 => array:7 [ "identificador" => "fig6" "etiqueta" => "Fig. 3" "tipo" => "MULTIMEDIAFIGURA" "mostrarFloat" => true "mostrarDisplay" => false "copyright" => "Elsevier España" "figura" => array:1 [ 0 => array:4 [ "imagen" => "40918078_f3_pag401.jpg" "Alto" => 363 "Ancho" => 397 "Tamanyo" => 30393 ] ] ] ] "bibliografia" => array:2 [ "titulo" => "Bibliography" "seccion" => array:1 [ 0 => array:1 [ "bibliografiaReferencia" => array:24 [ 0 => array:3 [ "identificador" => "bib1" "etiqueta" => "1" "referencia" => array:1 [ 0 => array:3 [ "referenciaCompleta" => "Waybill MM, Waybill PN.
