Abstract
OBJECTIVES The objective of this Prospective Register of Systematic Reviews (CRD42022384192) registered systematic review and meta-analysis was to determine whether prophylactic peritoneal dialysis (PD) catheter insertion at the time of pediatric cardiac surgery is associated with improved short-term outcomes. DATA SOURCES Databases search of the MEDLINE, EMBASE, CINAHL, and Cochrane Library completed in April 2021 and updated October 2023. STUDY SELECTION Two reviewers independently completed study selection, data extraction, and bias assessment. Inclusion criteria were randomized controlled trials (RCTs) and observational studies of children (≤ 18 yr) undergoing cardiac surgery with cardiopulmonary bypass. We evaluated use of prophylactic PD catheter versus not. DATA EXTRACTION The primary outcome was in-hospital mortality, as well as secondary short-term outcomes. Pooled random-effect meta-analysis odds ratio with 95% CI are reported. DATA SYNTHESIS Seventeen studies met inclusion criteria, including four RCTs. The non-PD catheter group received supportive care that included diuretics and late placement of PD catheters in the ICU. Most study populations included children younger than 1 year and weight less than 10 kg. Cardiac surgery was most commonly used for arterial switch operation. In-hospital mortality was reported in 13 studies; pooled analysis showed no association between prophylactic PD catheter placement and in-hospital mortality. There were mixed results for ICU length of stay and time to negative fluid balance, with some studies showing shortened duration associated with use of prophylactic PD catheter insertion and others showing no difference. Overall, the studies had high risk for bias, mainly due to small sample size and lack of generalizability. CONCLUSIONS In this meta-analysis, we have failed to demonstrate an association between prophylactic PD catheter insertion in children and infants undergoing cardiac surgery and reduced in-hospital mortality. Other relevant short-term outcomes, including markers of fluid overload, require further study.

Abstract
Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a common complication after surgery and the more complex the surgery, the greater the risk. During surgery, patients are exposed to a combination of factors all of which are associated with the development of AKI. These include hypotension and hypovolaemia, sepsis, systemic inflammation, the use of nephrotoxic agents, tissue injury, the infusion of blood or blood products, ischaemia, oxidative stress and reperfusion injury. Given the risks of AKI, it would seem logical to conclude that early identification of patients at risk of AKI would translate into benefit. The conventional markers of AKI, namely serum creatinine and urine output are the mainstay of defining chronic kidney disease but are less suited to the acute phase. Such concerns are compounded in surgical patients given they often have significantly reduced mobility, suboptimal levels of nutrition and reduced muscle bulk. Many patients may also have misleadingly low serum creatinine and high urine output due to aggressive fluid resuscitation, particularly in intensive care units. Over the last two decades, considerable information has accrued with regard to the performance of what was termed "novel" biomarkers of AKI, and here, we discuss the most examined molecules and performance in surgical settings. We also discuss the application of biomarkers to guide patients' postoperative care.

Abstract
One of the most frequent issues in newborns is acute kidney injury (AKI), which can lengthen their hospital stay or potentially raise their chance of dying. The gut-kidney axis establishes a bidirectional interplay between gut microbiota and kidney illness, particularly AKI, and demonstrates the importance of gut microbiota to host health. Since the ability to predict neonatal AKI using blood creatinine and urine output as evaluation parameters is somewhat constrained, a number of interesting biomarkers have been developed. There are few in-depth studies on the relationships between these neonatal AKI indicators and gut microbiota. In order to gain fresh insights into the gut-kidney axis of neonatal AKI, this review is based on the gut-kidney axis and describes relationships between gut microbiota and neonatal AKI biomarkers.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Severity of acute kidney injury (AKI) confers higher odds of mortality. Timely recognition and early initiation of preventive measures may help mitigate the injury further. Novel biomarkers may aid in the early detection of AKI. The utility of these biomarkers across various clinical settings in children has not been evaluated systematically. OBJECTIVE To synthesize the currently available evidence on different novel biomarkers for the early diagnosis of AKI in pediatric patients. DATA SOURCES We searched four electronic databases (PubMed, Web of Science, Embase, and Cochrane Library) for studies published between 2004 and May 2022. STUDY ELIGIBILITY CRITERIA Cohort and cross-sectional studies evaluating the diagnostic performance of biomarkers in predicting AKI in children were included. PARTICIPANTS AND INTERVENTIONS Participants in the study included children (aged less than 18 years) at risk of AKI. STUDY APPRAISAL AND SYNTHESIS METHODS We used the QUADAS-2 tool for the quality assessment of the included studies. The area under the receiver operating characteristics (AUROC) was meta-analyzed using the random-effect inverse-variance method. Pooled sensitivity and specificity were generated using the hierarchical summary receiver operating characteristic (HSROC) model. RESULTS We included 92 studies evaluating 13,097 participants. Urinary NGAL and serum cystatin C were the two most studied biomarkers, with summary AUROC of 0.82 (0.77-0.86) and 0.80 (0.76-0.85), respectively. Among others, urine TIMP-2*IGFBP7, L-FABP, and IL-18 showed fair to good predicting ability for AKI. We observed good diagnostic performance for predicting severe AKI by urine L-FABP, NGAL, and serum cystatin C. LIMITATIONS Limitations were significant heterogeneity and lack of well-defined cutoff value for various biomarkers. CONCLUSIONS AND IMPLICATIONS OF KEY FINDINGS Urine NGAL, L-FABP, TIMP-2*IGFBP7, and cystatin C showed satisfactory diagnostic accuracy in the early prediction of AKI. To further improve the performance of biomarkers, they need to be integrated with other risk stratification models. SYSTEMATIC REVIEW REGISTRATION PROSPERO (CRD42021222698).

Abstract
Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a prevalent and serious illness in all clinical departments, with a high morbidity and death rate, particularly in intensive care units, where prevention and treatment are crucial. As a result, active prevention, early detection, and timely intervention for acute kidney injury are critical. The current diagnostic criteria for acute kidney injury are an increase in serum creatinine concentration and/or a decrease in urine output, although creatinine and urine output merely reflect changes in kidney function, and AKI suggests injury or damage, but not necessarily dysfunction. The human kidney plays a crucial functional reserve role, and dysfunction is only visible when more than half of the renal mass is impaired. Tubular damage markers can be used to detect AKI before filtration function is lost, and new biomarkers have shown a new subset of AKI patients known as “subclinical AKI.” Furthermore, creatinine and urine volume are only marginally effective for detecting subclinical AKI. As a result, the search for new biomarkers not only identifies deterioration of renal function but also allows for the early detection of structural kidney damage. Several biomarkers have been identified and validated. This study discusses some of the most promising novel biomarkers of AKI, including CysC, NGAL, KIM-1, lL-18, L-FABP, IGFBP7, TIMP-2, Clusterin, and Penkid. We examine their performance in the diagnosis of subclinical AKI, limitations, and future clinical practice directions.

Abstract
Adipose tissue releases a large range of bioactive factors called adipokines, many of which are involved in inflammation, glucose homeostasis and lipid metabolism. Under pathological conditions such as obesity, most of the adipokines are upregulated and considered as deleterious, due to their pro-inflammatory, pro-atherosclerotic or pro-diabetic properties, while only a few are downregulated and would be designated as beneficial adipokines, thanks to their counteracting properties against the onset of comorbidities. This review focuses on six adipose-derived lipid-binding proteins that have emerged as key factors in the development of obesity and diabetes: Retinol binding protein 4 (RBP4), Fatty acid binding protein 4 (FABP4), Apolipoprotein D (APOD), Lipocalin-2 (LCN2), Lipocalin-14 (LCN14) and Apolipoprotein M (APOM). These proteins share structural homology and capacity to bind small hydrophobic molecules but display opposite effects on glucose and lipid metabolism. RBP4 and FABP4 are positively associated with metabolic syndrome, while APOD and LCN2 are ubiquitously expressed proteins with deleterious or beneficial effects, depending on their anatomical site of expression. LCN14 and APOM have been recently identified as adipokines associated with healthy metabolism. Recent findings on these lipid-binding proteins exhibiting detrimental or protective roles in human and murine metabolism and their involvement in metabolic diseases are also discussed.
