Abstract
BACKGROUND Type 1 Diabetes (T1D) is associated with increased risk of fractures, worsened by presence of microvascular complications. This study's objective is to determine the impact of progressive decline in estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) on bone biomarkers and bone microarchitecture in youth with T1D. METHODS Slopes of eGFR were calculated using measures obtained at four timepoints from adolescence to young adulthood. Participants were identified as eGFR decliners if eGFR decreased ≥ 3ml/min/1.73m2/year. Bone health was assessed in young adulthood by high resolution peripheral quantitative computed tomography (HRpQCT Xtreme CTII) and bone biomarkers; osteocalcin, procollagen 1 intact n-terminal pro-peptide (P1NP), c-terminal telopeptide (CTX), and bone specific alkaline phosphatase. The relationship between diabetes duration, glycated hemoglobin, body mass index (BMI) and vitamin D level on bone biomarkers and microarchitecture was evaluated. Linear regression analysis was used for the statistical analysis in this study. RESULTS Ninety-nine study participants were studied with longitudinal evaluation of eGFR over 7.4 ± 1.0 years with mean age of 14.7 ± 1.7 years at baseline. Cross sectional evaluation of bone was performed at 21.3 ± 2.1 years. 44% participants had eGFR decline and showed 5% higher cortical porosity diameter than non-decliners (p = 0.035). Greater diabetes duration was associated with higher trabecular separation (p = 0.004) and lower trabecular number (p = 0.01). Higher level of 25 hydroxy-vitamin D was associated with lower trabecular separation (p = 0.01). Elevated glycated hemoglobin (p = 0.0008) and BMI (p = 0.009), were associated with lower markers of bone formation. CONCLUSION Mild increase in cortical porosity diameter was found in youth with T1D and eGFR decline, however, overall measures of bone microarchitecture on HR-pQCT were similar between both groups and there were no statistically significant changes in bone biomarkers. Hence, skeletal impairments were limited in youth with different eGFR trajectories near peak bone mass. Longitudinal HR-pQCT studies are needed to further understand the impact of eGFR decline on bone microarchitecture. Optimal glycemic control, normal BMI and vitamin D status were supported by this study as important markers for good bone health.

Abstract
Importance Hypertension affects 6% of all children, and its prevalence is increasing. Childhood hypertension tracks into adulthood and is associated with subclinical cardiovascular disease; however, there is a lack of evidence linking childhood hypertension to cardiovascular outcomes, which may contribute to underdiagnosis and undertreatment. Objective To determine the long-term associated risk of major adverse cardiac events (MACE) among children diagnosed with hypertension. Design, Setting, and Participants This was a population-based, retrospective, matched cohort study conducted from 1996 to 2022. The study included all children (aged 3-18 years) alive in Ontario, Canada, from 1996 to 2021, who were identified using provincial administrative health databases. Children with prior kidney replacement therapy were excluded. Exposure Incident hypertension diagnosis, identified by validated case definitions using diagnostic and physician billing claims. Each case was matched with 5 controls without hypertension by age, sex, birth weight, maternal gestational hypertension, prior comorbidities (chronic kidney disease, diabetes, cardiovascular surgery), and a propensity score for hypertension. Main Outcomes and Measures The primary outcome was MACE (a composite of cardiovascular death, stroke, hospitalization for myocardial infarction or unstable angina, or coronary intervention). Time to MACE was evaluated using the Kaplan-Meier method and Cox proportional hazards regression. Results A total of 25 605 children (median [IQR] age, 15 [11-17] years; 14 743 male [57.6%]) with hypertension were matched to 128 025 controls without hypertension. Baseline covariates were balanced after propensity score matching, and prior comorbidities were uncommon (hypertension vs control cohort: malignancy, 1451 [5.7%] vs 7908 [6.2%]; congenital heart disease, 1089 [4.3%] vs 5408 [4.2%]; diabetes, 482 [1.9%] vs 2410 [1.9%]). During a median (IQR) of 13.6 (7.8-19.5) years of follow-up, incidence of MACE was 4.6 per 1000 person-years in children with hypertension vs 2.2 per 1000 person-years in controls (hazard ratio, 2.1; 95% CI, 1.9-2.2). Children with hypertension were at higher associated risk of stroke, hospitalization for myocardial infarction or unstable angina, coronary intervention, and congestive heart failure, but not cardiovascular death, compared with nonhypertensive controls. Conclusions and Relevance Children diagnosed with hypertension had a higher associated long-term risk of MACE compared with controls without hypertension. Improved detection, follow-up, and control of pediatric hypertension may reduce the risk of adult cardiovascular disease.

Abstract
BACKGROUND We evaluated time-varying perinatal risk factors associated with early (≤7 post-natal days) and late (>7 post-natal days) severe acute kidney injury (AKI) occurrence and duration. METHODS A secondary analysis of Preterm Erythropoietin Neuroprotection Trial data. We defined severe AKI (stage 2 or 3) per neonatal modified Kidney Disease: Improving Global Outcomes criteria. Adjusted Cox proportional hazards models were conducted with exposures occurring at least 72 h before severe AKI. Adjusted negative binomial regression models were completed to evaluate risk factors for severe AKI duration. RESULTS Of 923 participants, 2% had early severe AKI. In the adjusted model, gestational diabetes (adjusted HR (aHR) 5.4, 95% CI 1.1-25.8), non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) (aHR 3.2, 95% CI 1.0-9.8), and vancomycin (aHR 13.9, 95% CI 2.3-45.1) were associated with early severe AKI. Late severe AKI occurred in 22% of participants. Early severe AKI (aHR 2.5, 95% CI 1.1-5.4), sepsis (aHR 2.5, 95% CI 1.4-4.4), vasopressors (aHR 2.9, 95% CI 1.8-4.6), and diuretics (aHR 2.6, 95% CI 1.9-3.6) were associated with late severe AKI. Participants who had necrotizing enterocolitis or received NSAIDs had longer severe AKI duration. CONCLUSION We identified major risk factors for severe AKI that can be the focus of future research. IMPACT STATEMENT Time-dependent risk factors for severe acute kidney injury (AKI) and its duration are not well defined among infants born <28 weeks' gestation. Over 1 in 5 infants born <28 weeks' gestation experienced severe AKI, and this study identified several major time-dependent perinatal risk factors occurring within 72 h prior to severe AKI. This study can support efforts to develop risk stratification and clinical decision support to help mitigate modifiable risk factors to reduce severe AKI occurrence and duration.

Abstract
The nephrology and critical care communities have seen an increase in studies exploring acute kidney injury (AKI) epidemiology in children. As a result, we now know that AKI is highly prevalent in critically ill neonates, children, and young adults. Furthermore, children who develop AKI experience greater morbidity and higher mortality. Yet knowledge gaps still exist that suggest a more comprehensive understanding of AKI will form the foundation for future efforts designed to improve outcomes. In particular, the areas of community acquired AKI, AKI in non-critically ill children, and cohorts from low-middle income countries have not been well studied. Longer-term functional outcomes and patient-centric metrics including social determinants of health, quality of life, and healthcare utilization should be the foci of the next phase of scholarship. Current definitions identify AKI-based upon evidence of dysfunction which serves as a proxy for injury; biomarkers capable of identifying injury as it occurs are likely to more accurately define populations with AKI. Despite the strength of the association, the causal and mechanistic relationships between AKI and poorer outcomes remain inadequately examined. A more robust understanding of the relationship represents a potential to identify therapeutic targets. Once established, a more comprehensive understanding of AKI epidemiology in children will allow investigation of preventive, therapeutic, and quality improvement interventions more effectively.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Acute kidney injury (AKI) is independently associated with increased morbidity and mortality across the life course, yet care for AKI remains mostly supportive. Raising awareness of this life-threatening clinical syndrome through education and advocacy efforts is the key to improving patient outcomes. Here, we describe the unique roles education and advocacy play in the care of children with AKI, discuss the importance of customizing educational outreach efforts to individual groups and contexts, and highlight the opportunities created through innovations and partnerships to optimize lifelong health outcomes. METHODS During the 26th Acute Disease Quality Initiative (ADQI) consensus conference, a multidisciplinary group of experts discussed the evidence and used a modified Delphi process to achieve consensus on recommendations on AKI research, education, practice, and advocacy in children. RESULTS The consensus statements developed in response to three critical questions about the role of education and advocacy in pediatric AKI care are presented here along with a summary of available evidence and recommendations for both clinical care and research. CONCLUSIONS These consensus statements emphasize that high-quality care for patients with AKI begins in the community with education and awareness campaigns to identify those at risk for AKI. Education is the key across all healthcare and non-healthcare settings to enhance early diagnosis and develop mitigation strategies, thereby improving outcomes for children with AKI. Strong advocacy efforts are essential for implementing these programs and building critical collaborations across all stakeholders and settings.

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
Importance In clinical trials, the early or accelerated continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT) initiation strategy among adults with acute kidney injury or volume overload has not demonstrated a survival benefit. Whether the timing of initiation of CRRT is associated with outcomes among children and young adults is unknown. Objective To determine whether timing of CRRT initiation, with and without consideration of volume overload (VO; <10% vs ≥10%), is associated with major adverse kidney events at 90 days (MAKE-90). Design, Setting, and Participants This multinational retrospective cohort study was conducted using data from the Worldwide Exploration of Renal Replacement Outcome Collaborative in Kidney Disease (WE-ROCK) registry from 2015 to 2021. Participants included children and young adults (birth to 25 years) receiving CRRT for acute kidney injury or VO at 32 centers across 7 countries. Statistical analysis was performed from February to July 2023. Exposure The primary exposure was time to CRRT initiation from intensive care unit admission. Main Outcomes and measures The primary outcome was MAKE-90 (death, dialysis dependence, or persistent kidney dysfunction [>25% decline in estimated glomerular filtration rate from baseline]). Results Data from 996 patients were entered into the registry. After exclusions (n = 27), 969 patients (440 [45.4%] female; 16 (1.9%) American Indian or Alaska Native, 40 (4.7%) Asian or Pacific Islander, 127 (14.9%) Black, 652 (76.4%) White, 18 (2.1%) more than 1 race; median [IQR] patient age, 8.8 [1.7-15.0] years) with data for the primary outcome (MAKE-90) were included. Median (IQR) time to CRRT initiation was 2 (1-6) days. MAKE-90 occurred in 630 patients (65.0%), of which 368 (58.4%) died. Among the 601 patients who survived, 262 (43.6%) had persistent kidney dysfunction. Of patients with persistent dysfunction, 91 (34.7%) were dependent on dialysis. Time to CRRT initiation was approximately 1 day longer among those with MAKE-90 (median [IQR], 3 [1-8] days vs 2 [1-4] days; P = .002). In the generalized propensity score-weighted regression, there were approximately 3% higher odds of MAKE-90 for each 1-day delay in CRRT initiation (odds ratio, 1.03 [95% CI, 1.02-1.04]). Conclusions and Relevance In this cohort study of children and young adults receiving CRRT, longer time to CRRT initiation was associated with greater risk of MAKE-90 outcomes, in particular, mortality. These findings suggest that prospective multicenter studies are needed to further delineate the appropriate time to initiate CRRT and the interaction between CRRT initiation timing and VO to continue to improve survival and reduce morbidity in this population.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Cisplatin is associated with acute kidney injury (AKI) and electrolyte abnormalities. Urine tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinase 2 (TIMP-2) and insulin-like growth factor-binding protein 7 (IGFBP-7) may be early cisplatin-AKI biomarkers. METHODS We conducted a 12-site prospective cohort study with pediatric patients treated with cisplatin (May 2013-December 2017). Blood and urine (measured for TIMP-2, IGFBP-7) were collected pre-cisplatin, 24-h post-cisplatin, and near hospital discharge during the first or second cisplatin cycle (early visit (EV)) and during second-to-last or last cisplatin cycle (late visit (LV)). PRIMARY OUTCOME serum creatinine (SCr)-defined AKI (≥ stage 1). RESULTS At EV (median (interquartile (IQR)) age: 6 (2-12) years; 78 (50%) female), 46/156 (29%) developed AKI; at LV, 22/127 (17%) experienced AKI. At EV, TIMP-2, IGFBP-7, and TIMP-2*IGFBP-7 pre-cisplatin infusion concentrations were significantly higher in participants with vs. those without AKI. At EV and LV, biomarker concentrations were significantly lower in participants with vs. those without AKI at post-infusion and near-hospital discharge. Biomarker values normalized to urine creatinine were higher in patients with AKI compared to without (LV post-infusion, median (IQR): TIMP-2*IGFBP-7: 0.28 (0.08-0.56) vs. 0.04 (0.02-0.12) (ng/mg creatinine)2/1000; P < .001). At EV, pre-infusion biomarker concentrations had the highest area under the curves (AUC) (range: 0.61-0.62) for AKI diagnosis; at LV, biomarkers measured post-infusion and near discharge yielded the highest AUCs (range: 0.64-0.70). CONCLUSIONS TIMP-2*IGFBP-7 were poor to modest at detecting AKI post-cisplatin. Additional studies are needed to determine whether raw biomarker values or biomarker values normalized to urinary creatinine are more strongly associated with patient outcomes. A higher resolution version of the Graphical abstract is available as Supplementary information.

Abstract
Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a complex syndrome which affects a significant proportion of hospitalized children. The breadth and impact of AKI on health outcomes in both adults and children have come to the fore in recent years with increasing awareness encouraging research advancement. Despite this, management strategies for most types of AKI remain heavily reliant on fluid and electrolyte management, hemodynamic optimization, nephrotoxin avoidance and appropriate initiation of kidney replacement therapy. Specific drugs targeting the mechanisms involved in AKI remain elusive. Recent improvement in appreciation of the complexity of AKI pathophysiology has allowed for greater opportunity to consider novel therapeutic agents. A number of drugs specifically targeting AKI are in various stages of development. This review will consider some novel and repurposed agents; interrogate the plausibility of the proposed mechanisms of action, as they relate to what we know about the pathophysiology of AKI; and review the level of existing literature supporting their efficacy. The evidence base, particularly in children, is limited.

Abstract
Introduction Drug-induced acute kidney injury (DI-AKI) is a frequent adverse event. The identification of DI-AKI is challenged by competing etiologies, clinical heterogeneity among patients, and a lack of accurate diagnostic tools. Our research aims to describe the clinical characteristics and predictive variables of DI-AKI. Methods We analyzed data from the Drug-Induced Renal Injury Consortium (DIRECT) study (NCT02159209), an international, multicenter, observational cohort study of enriched clinically adjudicated DI-AKI cases. Cases met the primary inclusion criteria if the patient was exposed to at least 1 nephrotoxic drug for a minimum of 24 hours prior to AKI onset. Cases were clinically adjudicated, and inter-rater reliability (IRR) was measured using Krippendorff's alpha. Variables associated with DI-AKI were identified using L1 regularized multivariable logistic regression. Model performance was assessed using the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC AUC). Results A total of 314 AKI cases met the eligibility criteria for this analysis, and 271 (86%) cases were adjudicated as DI-AKI. The majority of the AKI cases were recruited from the United States (68%). The most frequent causal nephrotoxic drugs were vancomycin (48.7%), nonsteroidal antiinflammatory drugs (18.2%), and piperacillin/tazobactam (17.8%). The IRR for DI-AKI adjudication was 0.309. The multivariable model identified age, vascular capacity, hyperglycemia, infections, pyuria, serum creatinine (SCr) trends, and contrast media as significant predictors of DI-AKI with good performance (ROC AUC 0.86). Conclusion The identification of DI-AKI is challenging even with comprehensive adjudication by experienced nephrologists. Our analysis identified key clinical characteristics and outcomes of DI-AKI compared to other AKI etiologies.

Abstract
Acute kidney injury is common in hospitalised children and is associated with poor patient outcomes. Once acute kidney injury occurs, effective therapies to improve patient outcomes or kidney recovery are scarce. Early identification of children at risk of acute kidney injury or at an early injury stage is essential to prevent progression and mitigate complications. Paediatric acute kidney injury is under-recognised by clinicians, which is a barrier to optimisation of inpatient care and follow-up. Acute kidney injury definitions rely on functional biomarkers (ie, serum creatinine and urine output) that are inadequate, since they do not account for biological variability, analytical issues, or physiological responses to volume depletion. Improved predictive tools and diagnostic biomarkers of kidney injury are needed for earlier detection. Novel strategies, including biomarker-guided care algorithms, machine-learning methods, and electronic alerts tied to clinical decision support tools, could improve paediatric acute kidney injury care. Clinical prediction models should be studied in different paediatric populations and acute kidney injury phenotypes. Research is needed to develop and test prevention strategies for acute kidney injury in hospitalised children, including care bundles and therapeutics.

Abstract
Introduction Continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT) is used for the symptomatic management of acute kidney injury (AKI) and fluid overload (FO). Contemporary reports on pediatric CRRT are small and single center in design. Large international studies evaluating CRRT practice and outcomes are lacking. Herein, we describe the design of a multinational collaborative. Methods The Worldwide Exploration of Renal Replacement Outcomes Collaborative in Kidney Disease (WE-ROCK) is an international collaborative of pediatric specialists whose mission is to improve short- and long-term outcomes of children treated with CRRT. The aims of this multicenter retrospective study are to describe the epidemiology, liberation patterns, association of fluid balance and timing of CRRT initiation, and CRRT prescription with outcomes. Results We included children (n = 996, 0-25 years) admitted to an intensive care unit (ICU) and treated with CRRT for AKI or FO at 32 centers (in 7 countries) from 2018 to 2021. Demographics and clinical characteristics before CRRT initiation, during the first 7 days of both CRRT, and liberation were collected. Outcomes include the following: (i) major adverse kidney events at 90 days (mortality, dialysis dependence, and persistent kidney dysfunction), and (ii) functional outcomes (functional stats scale). Conclusion The retrospective WE-ROCK study represents the largest international registry of children receiving CRRT for AKI or FO. It will serve as a broad and invaluable resource for the field of pediatric critical care nephrology that will improve our understanding of practice heterogeneity and the association of CRRT with clinical and patient-centered outcomes. This will generate preliminary data for future interventional trials in this area.

Abstract
Background Acute kidney injury (AKI) in critically ill children is associated with increased risk for short- and long-term adverse outcomes. Currently, there is no systematic follow-up for children who develop AKI in intensive care unit (ICU). Objective This study aimed to assess variation regarding management, perceived importance, and follow-up of AKI in the ICU setting within and between healthcare professional (HCP) groups. Design Anonymous, cross-sectional, web-based surveys were administered nationally to Canadian pediatric nephrologists, pediatric intensive care unit (PICU) physicians, and PICU nurses, via professional listservs. Setting All Canadian pediatric nephrologists, PICU physicians, and nurses treating children in the ICU were eligible for the survey. Patients N/A. Measurements Surveys included multiple choice and Likert scale questions on current practice related to AKI management and long-term follow-up, including institutional and personal practice approaches, and perceived importance of AKI severity with different outcomes. Methods Descriptive statistics were performed. Categorical responses were compared using Chi-square or Fisher's exact tests; Likert scale results were compared using Mann-Whitney and Kruskal-Wallis tests. Results Surveys were completed by 34/64 (53%) pediatric nephrologists, 46/113 (41%) PICU physicians, and 82 PICU nurses (response rate unknown). Over 65% of providers reported hemodialysis to be prescribed by nephrology; a mix of nephrology, ICU, or a shared nephrology-ICU model was reported responsible for peritoneal dialysis and continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT). Severe hyperkalemia was the most important renal replacement therapy (RRT) indication for both nephrologists and PICU physicians (Likert scale from 0 [not important] to 10 [most important]; median = 10, 10, respectively). Nephrologists reported a lower threshold of AKI for increased mortality risk; 38% believed stage 2 AKI was the minimum compared to 17% of PICU physicians and 14% of nurses. Nephrologists were more likely than PICU physicians and nurses to recommend long-term follow-up for patients who develop any AKI during ICU stay (Likert scale from 0 [none] to 10 [all patients]; mean=6.0, 3.8, 3.7, respectively) (P < .05). Limitations Responses from all eligible HCPs in the country could not obtained. There may be differences in opinions between HCPs that completed the survey compared to those that did not. Additionally, the cross-sectional design of our study may not adequately reflect changes in guidelines and knowledge since survey completion, although no specific guidelines have been released in Canada since survey dissemination. Conclusions Canadian HCP groups have variable perspectives on pediatric AKI management and follow-up. Understanding practice patterns and perspectives will help optimize pediatric AKI follow-up guideline implementation.

Abstract
Hypertension is increasing in children and warrants disease surveillance. We therefore sought to evaluate the validity of case definitions to identify pediatric hypertension in administrative healthcare data. Cases of hypertension in children 3-18 years of age were identified utilizing blood pressures recorded in the Manitoba Primary Care Research Network (MaPCReN) electronic medical record from 2014 to 2016. Prevalence of hypertension and associated clinical characteristics were determined. We then evaluated the validity of 18 case definitions combining outpatient physician visits (ICD9CM codes), hospital claims (ICD9CM/ICD10 codes) and antihypertensive use within 1-3 years of data housed at the Manitoba Centre for Health Policy. The MaPCReN database identified 241 children with hypertension and 4090 without (prevalence = 5.6%). The sensitivity of algorithms ranged between 0.18 and 0.51 and the specificity between 0.98 and 1.00. Pharmaceutical use increased the sensitivity of algorithms significantly. The algorithms with the highest sensitivity and area under the ROC curve were 1 or more hospitalization OR 1 or more physician claim OR 1 or more pharmaceutical record. Evaluating 2 years of data is recommended. Administrative data alone reflects diagnosis of hypertension with high specificity, but underestimate the true prevalence of this disease. Alternative data sources are therefore required for disease surveillance.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES With the recognition that fluid overload (FO) has a detrimental impact on critically ill children, the critical care nephrology community has focused on identifying clinically meaningful targets for intervention. The current study aims to evaluate the epidemiology and outcomes associated with FO in an international multicenter cohort of critically ill children. The current study also aims to evaluate the association of FO at predetermined clinically relevant thresholds and time points (FO ≥ 5% and FO ≥ 10% at the end of ICU days 1 and 2) with outcomes. DESIGN Prospective cohort study. SETTING Multicenter, international collaborative of 32 pediatric ICUs. PATIENTS A total of 5,079 children and young adults admitted consecutively to pediatric ICUs as part of the Assessment of the Worldwide Acute Kidney Injury, Renal Angina and Epidemiology Study. INTERVENTIONS None. MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS The FO thresholds at the time points of interest occurred commonly in the cohort (FO ≥ 5%Day1 in 38.1% [ n = 1753], FO ≥ 10%Day1 in 11.7% [ n = 537], FO ≥ 5%Day2 in 53.3% [ n = 1,539], FO ≥ 10%Day2 in 25.1% [ n = 724]). On Day1, multivariable modeling demonstrated that FO ≥ 5% was associated with fewer ICU-free days, and FO ≥ 10% was associated with higher mortality and fewer ICU and ventilator-free days. On multivariable modeling, FO-peak, Day2 FO ≥ 5%, and Day2 FO ≥ 10% were associated with higher mortality and fewer ICU and ventilator-free days. CONCLUSIONS This study found that mild-to-moderate FO as early as at the end of ICU Day1 is associated with adverse outcomes. The current study fills an important void in the literature by identifying critical combinations of FO timing and quantity associated with adverse outcomes (FO ≥ 5%Day1, FO ≥10%Day1, FO ≥ 5%Day2, and FO ≥ 10%Day2). Those novel findings will help guide the development of interventional strategies and trials targeting the treatment and prevention of clinically relevant FO.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Acute kidney injury (AKI) and fluid overload (FO) are associated with poor outcomes in children receiving extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO). Our objective is to evaluate the impact of AKI and FO on pediatric patients receiving ECMO for cardiac pathology. METHODS We performed a secondary analysis of the six-center Kidney Interventions During Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation (KIDMO) database, including only children who underwent ECMO for cardiac pathology. AKI was defined using Kidney Disease: Improving Global Outcomes (KDIGO) creatinine criteria. FO was defined as < 10% (FO-) vs. ≥ 10% (FO +) and was evaluated at ECMO initiation, peak during ECMO, and ECMO discontinuation. Primary outcomes were mortality and length of stay (LOS). RESULTS Data from 191 patients were included. Non-survivors (56%) were more likely to be FO + than survivors at peak ECMO fluid status and ECMO discontinuation. There was a significant interaction between AKI and FO. In the presence of AKI, the adjusted odds of mortality for FO + was 4.79 times greater than FO- (95% CI: 1.52-15.12, p = 0.01). In the presence of FO + , the adjusted odds of mortality for AKI + was 2.7 times higher than AKI- [95%CI: 1.10-6.60; p = 0.03]. Peak FO + was associated with a 55% adjusted relative increase in LOS [95%CI: 1.07-2.26, p = 0.02]. CONCLUSIONS The association of peak FO + with mortality is present only in the presence of AKI + . Similarly, AKI + is associated with mortality only in the presence of peak FO + . FO + was associated with LOS. Studies targeting fluid management have the potential to improve LOS and mortality outcomes. A higher resolution version of the Graphical abstract is available as Supplementary information.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION In adults, chronic exposure to air pollution is associated with elevated blood pressure, but few studies have examined this relationship in youth. We investigated the association between annual ambient concentrations of air pollutants (fine particulate matter [PM2.5] and nitrogen dioxide [NO2]) and systolic blood pressure (SBP) among adolescents in Montréal, Canada. METHODS Participants were students aged 15 to 17 years who provided SBP and residential postal code data in 2004/05 through their enrolment in the Nicotine Dependence in Teens study. Annual estimates for 2004 of residential exposure to NO2 and PM2.5 were provided by the Canadian Urban Environmental Health Research Consortium and linked to participants' residential postal code. Elevated SBP was defined as SBP ≥ 90th percentile adjusted for age, sex and height. Logistic regression was used to estimate odds ratios and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) for each pollutant with respect to elevated SBP, adjusted for relevant confounders. RESULTS The sample consisted of 508 adolescents (mean age: 16.9, 46% male); 4% had elevated SBP. Although estimates were not statistically significant, there were generally modest positive associations between pollutant levels and SBP. The adjusted prevalence odds ratio of elevated SBP was 1.33 (95% CI: 0.64, 3.05) for every interquartile range (IQR) increase in residential PM2.5 levels (2.1μg/m3). Similarly, the adjusted prevalence odds ratio of elevated SBP was 1.17 (95% CI: 0.47, 2.70) for every IQR increase in residential NO2 levels (10.2 ppb). CONCLUSION Findings support a possible relationship between exposure to air pollutants and increased SBP in adolescents, warranting further investigation for this important public health concern.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To determine the patient characteristics and role of nephron-sparing surgery (NSS) in the treatment of children and young adults with renal cell carcinoma (RCC). METHODS A systematic search of Embase, MEDLINE, and Scopus databases was conducted in December 2021 according to Cochrane collaboration recommendations. All included manuscripts were assessed for patient characteristics and all reported outcomes for patients undergoing partial nephrectomy (PN), and radical nephrectomy (RN) outcomes were abstracted as a comparison group. Primary outcomes included surgical outcomes, overall survival, kidney outcomes. Outcomes were pooled with weighted mean and ranges. Meta-analysis was not performed given study quality. This systematic review was prospectively registered on PROSPERO (CRD42022300261). RESULTS We found a total of 16 studies describing 119 and 559 unique patients undergoing PN and RN, respectively, with a mean age of 12.2 years and mean follow-up of 59.1 months. The mean tumor size for patients undergoing PN was 3.5 cm. Of the 113 patients undergoing PN with available data, 109 were alive at follow-up (98%). No studies reported long-term kidney outcomes, and four studies reported surgical outcomes. All studies had at least moderate risk of bias. CONCLUSIONS The use of NSS in children and young adults with RCC is feasible in selected patients. However, small sample sizes, confounding, and low study quality limit clinical recommendation on NSS in this population. There are significant opportunities for future research on the use of NSS in RCC, especially with systematic reporting of oncological, kidney, and surgical outcomes.

Abstract
Key Points Complement activation, specifically factor B, is implicated in AKI pathogenesis in animal models. Urine Ba (an activation fragment of factor B) was significantly higher in critically ill children with stage 3 AKI and sepsis-AKI. If larger studies show similar association between urine Ba and AKI severity, clinical trials of factor B inhibition are warranted. Background: Critically ill children with AKI have high morbidity and mortality rates and lack treatment options. Complement activation is implicated in AKI pathogenesis, which could be treated with complement-targeted therapeutics. We assessed for an association between urine Ba, an activation fragment of the alternative complement pathway, and AKI in a large cohort of critically ill children. Methods: A biorepository of children requiring mechanical ventilation was leveraged. AKI was based on pediatric version of the RIFLE criteria—stage 1: 25% decreased eGFR or urine output (UOP) <0.5ml/kg per hour for 8 hours; stage 2: 50% decreased eGFR or UOP <0.5 ml/kg per hour for 16 hours; stage 3: 75% decreased eGFR or UOP <0.3ml/kg per hour for 24 hours or anuric for 12 hours. ELISAs were performed to quantitate urine Ba values. Log Ba was used in ANOVA with pairwise comparison by the Tukey method. Logistic regression was performed to test the association between urine Ba and AKI diagnosis. Results: Seventy-three patients were included, of which 56 had AKI: 26 (46%) stage 1, 16 (29%) stage 2, and 14 (25%) stage 3. Ba was significantly higher in patients with stage 3 AKI compared with all other stages. Ba was higher in sepsis-associated AKI compared with non–sepsis-associated AKI. Multivariate analysis included urine Ba, urine IL-18, urine NGAL, sepsis, and Pediatric Risk of Mortality Scores-II (an estimate of illness severity) and showed a significant association between urine Ba and AKI (odds ratio 1.57, 95% confidence interval, 1.13 to 2.20; P 0.007). Conclusion: Urine Ba is significantly increased in patients with AKI compared with patients without AKI. In patients with similar illness severity, a doubling of urine Ba level was associated with a 57% increase in AKI diagnosis of any stage. Further studies are needed to study complement inhibition in treatment or prevention of AKI in critically ill children.

Abstract
AIM Cisplatin causes acute kidney injury (AKI) in approximately one third of patients. Serum creatinine and urinary output are poor markers of cisplatin-induced AKI. Metabolomics was utilized to identify predictive or early diagnostic biomarkers of cisplatin-induced AKI. METHODS Thirty-one adult head and neck cancer patients receiving cisplatin (dose ≥70 mg/m2 ) were recruited for metabolomics analysis. Urine and serum samples were collected prior to cisplatin (pre), 24-48 h after cisplatin (24-48 h) and 5-14 days (post) after cisplatin. Based on serum creatinine concentrations measured at the post timepoint, 11/31 patients were classified with clinical AKI. Untargeted metabolomics was performed using liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS). RESULTS Metabolic discrimination was observed between "AKI" patients and "no AKI" patients at all timepoints. Urinary glycine, hippuric acid sulfate, 3-hydroxydecanedioc acid and suberate were significantly different between AKI patients and no AKI patients prior to cisplatin infusion. Urinary glycine and hippuric acid sulfate were lower (-2.22-fold and -8.85-fold), whereas 3-hydroxydecanedioc acid and suberate were higher (3.62-fold and 1.91-fold) in AKI patients relative to no AKI patients. Several urine and serum metabolites were found to be altered 24-48 h following cisplatin infusion, particularly metabolites involved with mitochondrial energetics. CONCLUSIONS We propose glycine, hippuric acid sulfate, 3-hydroxydecanedioc acid and suberate as predictive biomarkers of predisposition to cisplatin-induced AKI. Metabolites indicative of mitochondrial dysfunction may serve as early markers of subclinical AKI.

Abstract
RATIONALE & OBJECTIVE Acute kidney injury (AKI) is common among hospitalized children and is associated with increased hospital length of stay and costs. However, there are limited data on postdischarge health care utilization after AKI hospitalization. Our objectives were to evaluate health care utilization and physician follow-up patterns after dialysis-treated AKI in a pediatric population. STUDY DESIGN Retrospective cohort study, using provincial health administrative databases. SETTING & PARTICIPANTS All children (0-18 years) hospitalized between 1996 and 2017 in Ontario, Canada. Excluded individuals comprised non-Ontario residents; those with metabolic disorders or poisoning; and those who received dialysis or kidney transplant before admission, a kidney transplant by 104 days after discharge, or were receiving dialysis 76-104 days from dialysis start date. EXPOSURE Episodes of dialysis-treated AKI, identified using validated health administrative codes. AKI survivors were matched to 4 hospitalized controls without dialysis-treated AKI by age, sex, and admission year. OUTCOME Our primary outcome was postdischarge hospitalizations, emergency department visits, and outpatient physician visits. Secondary outcomes included outpatient visits by physician type and composite health care costs. ANALYTICAL APPROACH Proportions with≥1 event and rates (per 1,000 person-years). Total and median composite health care costs. Adjusted rate ratios using negative binomial regression models. RESULTS We included 1,688 pediatric dialysis-treated AKI survivors and 6,752 matched controls. Dialysis-treated AKI survivors had higher rehospitalization and emergency department visit rates during the analyzed follow-up periods (0-1, 0-5, and 0-10 years postdischarge, and throughout follow-up), and higher outpatient visit rates in the 0-1-year follow-up period. The overall adjusted rate ratio for rehospitalization was 1.46 (95% CI, 1.25-1.69; P<0.0001) and for outpatient visits was 1.16 (95% CI, 1.09-1.23; P=0.01). Dialysis-treated AKI survivors also had higher health care costs. Nephrologist follow-up was infrequent among dialysis-treated AKI survivors (18.6% by 1 year postdischarge). LIMITATIONS Potential miscoding of study exposures or outcomes. Residual uncontrolled confounding. Data for health care costs and emergency department visits was unavailable before 2006 and 2001, respectively. CONCLUSIONS Dialysis-treated AKI survivors had greater postdischarge health care utilization and costs versus hospitalized controls. Strategies are needed to improve follow-up care for children after dialysis-treated AKI to prevent long-term complications.

Abstract
Introduction Patients who survive acute kidney injury (AKI) may receive fewer cardioprotective drugs. Our objective was to measure the difference in time to dispensing of evidence-based cardiovascular drugs in patients with a history of myocardial infarction (MI) with and without AKI. Methods This was a population-based cohort study of patients 66 years of age and older with a history of MI who survived a hospitalization complicated with AKI, propensity-score matched to patients without AKI. The primary outcome was time to outpatient dispensing of an angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitor (ACEi)/angiotensin II receptor blocker (ARB), statin, or β-blocker within 1 year of hospital discharge. Results We identified 28,871 patients with AKI, of whom 21,452 were matched 1:1 to patients without AKI. In the matched cohort, mean age was 80 years, 40% were female, and 34% had an MI during the index hospitalization. AKI was associated with less frequent dispensing of all 3 cardiovascular drug classes within 1 year of hospital discharge (subdistribution hazard ratio [sHR], 0.93; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.91-0.95). This association was most pronounced in patients with stage 2 (sHR, 0.81; 95% CI, 0.75-0.88) and stage 3 (sHR, 0.71; 95% CI, 0.64-0.79) AKI. We observed less frequent dispensing of statins in patients with stage 2 (sHR, 0.87; 95% CI, 0.81-0.92) and stage 3 (sHR, 0.85; 95% CI, 0.78-0.93) AKI and less frequent dispensing of β-blockers in patients with stage 3 AKI (sHR, 0.86; 95% CI, 0.79-0.94). Conclusion In patients with a history of MI, survivors of AKI were less likely to receive prescriptions for ACEi/ARB, statins, or β-blockers within 1 year of hospital discharge. This association was most pronounced in patients with stages 2 and 3 AKI.

Abstract
Background Approximately 30% of childhood cancer survivors (CCSs) will develop chronic kidney disease (CKD) or hypertension 15 to 20 years after treatment ends. The incidence of CKD and hypertension in the 5-year window after cancer therapy is unknown. Moreover, extent of monitoring of CCS with CKD and associated complications in current practice is underexplored. To inform the development of new and existing care guidelines for CCS, the epidemiology and monitoring of CKD and hypertension in the early period following cancer therapy warrants further investigation. Objective To describe the design and methods of the KIdney aNd blooD prESsure ouTcomes in Childhood Cancer Survivors study, which aims to evaluate the burden of late kidney and blood pressure outcomes in the first ~10 years after cancer therapy, the extent of appropriate screening and complications monitoring for CKD and hypertension, and whether patient, disease/treatment, or system factors are associated with these outcomes. Design Two distinct, but related studies; a prospective cohort study and a retrospective cohort study. Setting Five Ontario pediatric oncology centers. Patients The prospective study will involve 500 CCS at high risk for these late effects due to cancer therapy, and the retrospective study involves 5,000 CCS ≤ 18 years old treated for cancer between January 2008 and December 2020. Measurements Chronic kidney disease is defined as Estimated glomerular filtration rate <90 mL/min/1.73 m2 or albumin-to-creatinine ratio ≥ 3mg/mmol. Hypertension is defined by 2017 American Academy of Pediatrics guidelines. Methods Prospective study: we aim to investigate CKD and hypertension prevalence and the extent to which they persist at 3- and 5-year follow-up in CCS after cancer therapy. We will collect detailed biologic and clinical data, calculate CKD and hypertension prevalence, and progression at 3- and 5-years post-therapy. Retrospective study: we aim to investigate CKD and hypertension monitoring using administrative and health record data. We will also investigate the validity of CKD and hypertension administrative definitions in this population and the incidence of CKD and hypertension in the first ~10 years post-cancer therapy. We will investigate whether patient-, disease/treatment-, or system-specific factors modify these associations in both studies. Limitations Results from the prospective study may not be generalizable to non-high-risk CCS. The retrospective study is susceptible to surveillance bias. Conclusions Our team and knowledge translation plan is engaging patient partners, researchers, knowledge users, and policy group representatives. Our work will address international priorities to improve CCS health, provide the evidence of new disease burden and practice gaps to improve CCS guidelines, implement and test revised guidelines, plan trials to reduce CKD and hypertension, and improve long-term CCS health.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Acute kidney injury (AKI) is characterized by an abrupt decline in glomerular filtration rate (GFR). We sought to identify separate early urinary metabolomic signatures at AKI onset (with-AKI) and prior to onset of functional impairment (pre-AKI). METHODS Pre-AKI (n=15), AKI (n=22), and respective controls (n=30) from two prospective PICU cohort studies provided urine samples which were analyzed by GC-MS and DI-MS mass spectrometry (193 metabolites). The cohort (n=58) was 8.7±6.4 years old and 66% male. AKI patients had longer PICU stays, higher PRISM scores, vasopressors requirement, and respiratory diagnosis and less commonly had trauma or post-operative diagnosis. Urine was collected within 2-3 days after admission and daily until day 5 or 14. RESULTS The metabolite classifiers for pre-AKI samples (1.5±1.1 days prior to AKI onset) had a cross-validated area under receiver operator curve (AUC)=0.93 (95%CI 0.85-1.0); with-AKI samples had an AUC=0.94 (95%CI 0.87-1.0). A parsimonious pre-AKI classifier with 13 metabolites was similarly robust (AUC=0.96, 95%CI 0.89-1.0). Both classifiers were similar and showed modest correlation of high-ranking metabolites (tau=0.47, p<0.001). CONCLUSIONS This exploratory study demonstrates the potential of a urine metabolite classifier to detect AKI-risk in pediatric populations earlier than the current standard of diagnosis with the need for external validation. A higher resolution version of the Graphical abstract is available as Supplementary information with inner reference to ESM for GA.

Abstract
IMPORTANCE Increasing evidence indicates that acute kidney injury (AKI) occurs frequently in children and young adults and is associated with poor short-term and long-term outcomes. Guidance is required to focus efforts related to expansion of pediatric AKI knowledge. OBJECTIVE To develop expert-driven pediatric specific recommendations on needed AKI research, education, practice, and advocacy. EVIDENCE REVIEW At the 26th Acute Disease Quality Initiative meeting conducted in November 2021 by 47 multiprofessional international experts in general pediatrics, nephrology, and critical care, the panel focused on 6 areas: (1) epidemiology; (2) diagnostics; (3) fluid overload; (4) kidney support therapies; (5) biology, pharmacology, and nutrition; and (6) education and advocacy. An objective scientific review and distillation of literature through September 2021 was performed of (1) epidemiology, (2) risk assessment and diagnosis, (3) fluid assessment, (4) kidney support and extracorporeal therapies, (5) pathobiology, nutrition, and pharmacology, and (6) education and advocacy. Using an established modified Delphi process based on existing data, workgroups derived consensus statements with recommendations. FINDINGS The meeting developed 12 consensus statements and 29 research recommendations. Principal suggestions were to address gaps of knowledge by including data from varying socioeconomic groups, broadening definition of AKI phenotypes, adjudicating fluid balance by disease severity, integrating biopathology of child growth and development, and partnering with families and communities in AKI advocacy. CONCLUSIONS AND RELEVANCE Existing evidence across observational study supports further efforts to increase knowledge related to AKI in childhood. Significant gaps of knowledge may be addressed by focused efforts.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Children who develop acute kidney injury (AKI) in the pediatric intensive care unit (PICU) may be at higher risk of long-term chronic kidney disease and hypertension. The objectives of this study were to determine the prevalence of post-discharge hypertension and albuminuria using reference-standard measurements in children admitted to the PICU, and evaluate their association with AKI. METHODS Single-center longitudinal cohort study of children admitted to the PICU from 2005 to 2010 with 7-8 years of follow-up (n = 207). Patients were excluded if they had pre-existing chronic kidney disease, were deceased, lived > 3.5-h drive away, were unwilling/unable to provide consent/assent, or had a clotting disorder. AKI was defined by the Kidney Disease: Improving Global Outcomes creatinine definition. Office blood pressure was evaluated using age, sex, and height-based percentiles. Hypertension was defined using 24-h ambulatory blood pressure monitoring (ABPM). Albuminuria was defined as first morning urine albumin:creatinine ratio ≥ 30 mg/g. Prevalence of blood pressure outcomes was calculated. The association between AKI and outcomes was evaluated using multivariable regression. RESULTS Sixty of 207 (29%) children developed AKI during PICU admission. Overall, 6% had albuminuria and 21% had elevated office blood pressure or worse. One-hundred-and-seventy-seven (86%) patients had successful ABPM data. Of these, 10 (6%) had white coat, 18 (10%) had masked, and 5 (3%) had ambulatory hypertension. There was no statistically significant difference in outcomes across AKI stages. CONCLUSIONS Blood pressure abnormalities are common in children 7 years after PICU admission. Future studies with longer follow-up are needed to further evaluate the association between AKI and hypertension. A higher-resolution version of the graphical abstract is available as Supplementary information.

Abstract
RATIONALE & OBJECTIVE Clinical decision-making priorities may differ among children, their parents, and their clinicians. This study describes clinicians' perspectives on shared decision making in pediatric chronic kidney disease (CKD) and identifies opportunities to improve shared decision making and care for children with CKD and their families. STUDY DESIGN Semistructured interviews. SETTING & PARTICIPANTS Fifty clinicians participated, including pediatric nephrologists, nurses, social workers, surgeons, dietitians, and psychologists involved in providing care to children with CKD. They worked at 18 hospitals and 4 university research departments across 11 countries (United States of America, Canada, Australia, People's Republic of China, United Kingdom, Germany, France, Italy, Lithuania, New Zealand, and Singapore). ANALYTICAL APPROACH Interview transcripts were analyzed thematically. RESULTS We identified 4 themes: (1) striving to blend priorities (minimizing treatment burden, emphasizing clinical long-term risks, achieving common goals), (2) focusing on medical responsibilities (carrying decisional burden and pressure of expectations, working within system constraints, ensuring safety is foremost concern), (3) collaborating to achieve better long-term outcomes (individualizing care, creating partnerships, encouraging ownership and participation in shared decision making, sensitive to parental distress), and (4) forming cumulative knowledge (balancing reassurance and realistic expectations, building understanding around treatment, harnessing motivation for long-term goals). LIMITATIONS Most clinicians were from high-income countries, so the transferability of the findings to other settings is uncertain. CONCLUSIONS Clinicians reported striving to minimize treatment burden and working with children and their families to manage their expectations and support their decision making. However, they are challenged with system constraints and sometimes felt the pressure of being responsible for the child's long-term outcomes. Further studies are needed to test whether support for shared decision making would promote strategies to establish and improve the quality of care for children with CKD.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To investigate whether NICU discharge summaries documented neonatal AKI and estimate if nephrology consultation mediated this association. STUDY DESIGN Secondary analysis of AWAKEN multicenter retrospective cohort. EXPOSURES AKI severity and diagnostic criteria. OUTCOME AKI documentation on NICU discharge summaries using multivariable logistic regression to estimate associations and test for causal mediation. RESULTS Among 605 neonates with AKI, 13% had documented AKI. Those with documented AKI were more likely to have severe AKI (70.5% vs. 51%, p < 0.001) and SCr-only AKI (76.9% vs. 50.1%, p = 0.04). Nephrology consultation mediated 78.0% (95% CL 46.5-109.4%) of the total effect of AKI severity and 82.8% (95% CL 70.3-95.3%) of the total effect of AKI diagnostic criteria on documentation. CONCLUSION We report a low prevalence of AKI documentation at NICU discharge. AKI severity and SCr-only AKI increased odds of AKI documentation. Nephrology consultation mediated the associations of AKI severity and diagnostic criteria with documentation.

Abstract
Acute kidney injury (AKI) and fluid overload (FO) are common complications of extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO). The purpose of this study was to characterize AKI and FO in children receiving extracorporeal cardiopulmonary resuscitation (eCPR). We performed a multicenter retrospective study of children who received eCPR. AKI was assessed during ECMO and FO defined as <10% [FO-] vs. ≥10% [FO+] evaluated at ECMO initiation and discontinuation. A composite exposure, defined by a four-group discrete phenotypic classification [FO-/AKI-, FO-/AKI+, FO+/AKI-, FO+/AKI+] was also evaluated. Primary outcome was mortality and hospital length of stay (LOS) among survivors. 131 patients (median age 29 days (IQR:9, 242 days); 51% men and 82% with underlying cardiac disease) were included. 45.8% survived hospital discharge. FO+ at ECMO discontinuation, but not AKI was associated with mortality [aOR=2.3; 95% CI: 1.07-4.91]. LOS for FO+ patients was twice as long as FO- patients, irrespective of AKI status [(FO+/AKI+ (60 days; IQR: 49-83) vs. FO-/AKI+ (30 days, IQR: 19-48 days); P = 0.01]. FO+ at ECMO initiation and discontinuation was associated with an adjusted 66% and 50% longer length of stay respectively. Prospective studies that target timing and strategy of fluid management, including its removal in children receiving ECPR are greatly needed.

Abstract
Background: The global prevalence of hypertension in children and adolescents has increased over the past 2 decades and is the strongest predictor of adult hypertension. South Asians have an increased prevalence of metabolic syndrome associated risk factors including abdominal obesity, diabetes, and hypertension. All these factors contribute to their increased cardiovascular disease burden. Accurate and early identification of hypertension in South Asian children is a necessary aspect of cardiovascular disease prevention. Ambulatory blood pressure monitoring (ABPM) is considered the gold-standard for pediatric blood pressure (BP) measurement. However, its utilization is limited due to the lack of validated normative reference data in diverse, multiethnic pediatric populations. Objective: The primary objective is to establish normative height-sex and age-sex-specific reference values for 24-h ABPM measurements among South Asian children and adolescents (aged 5-17 years) in Ontario and British Columbia, Canada. Secondary objectives are to evaluate differences in ABPM measurements by body mass index classification, to compare our normative data against pre-existing data from German and Hong Kong cohorts, and to evaluate relationships between habitual movement behaviors, diet quality, and ABPM measurements. Design: Cross-sectional study, quasi-representative sample. Setting: Participants will be recruited from schools, community centers, and places of worship in Southern Ontario (Greater Toronto and Hamilton area, including the Peel Region) and Greater Vancouver, British Columbia. Participants: We aim to recruit 2113 nonoverweight children (aged 5-17 years) for the primary objective. We aim to recruit an additional 633 overweight or obese children to address the secondary objectives. Measurements: Ambulatory BP monitoring measurements will be obtained using Spacelabs 90217 ABPM devices, which are validated for pediatric use. The ActiGraph GT3X-BT accelerometer, which has also been validated for pediatric use, will be used to obtain movement behavior data. Methods: Following recruitment, eligible children will be fitted with 24-h ABPM and physical activity monitors. Body anthropometrics and questionnaire data regarding medical and family history, medications, diet, physical activity, and substance use will be collected. Ambulatory BP monitoring data will be used to develop height-sex- and age-sex-specific normative reference values for South Asian children. Secondary objectives include evaluating differences in ABPM measures between normal weight, overweight and obese children; and comparing our South Asian ABPM data to existing German and Hong Kong data. We will also use compositional data analysis to evaluate associations between a child’s habitual movement behaviors and ABPM measures. Limitations: Bloodwork will not be performed to facilitate recruitment. A non-South Asian comparator cohort will not be included due to feasibility concerns. Using a convenience sampling approach introduces the potential for selection bias. Conclusions: Ambulatory BP monitoring is a valuable tool for the identification and follow-up of pediatric hypertension and overcomes many of the limitations of office-based BP measurement. The development of normative ABPM data specific to South Asian children will increase the accuracy of BP measurement and hypertension identification in this at-risk population, providing an additional strategy for primary prevention of cardiovascular disease.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Few studies have characterized follow-up after pediatric acute kidney injury (AKI). Our aim was to describe outpatient AKI follow-up after pediatric intensive care unit (PICU) admission. METHODS Two-center retrospective cohort study (0-18 years; PICU survivors (2003-2005); noncardiac surgery; and no baseline kidney disease). Provincial administrative databases were used to determine outcomes. EXPOSURE AKI (KDIGO (Kidney Disease: Improving Global Outcomes) definitions). OUTCOMES post-discharge nephrology, family physician, pediatrician, and non-nephrology specialist visits. Regression was used to evaluate factors associated with the presence of nephrology follow-up (Cox) and the number of nephrology and family physician or pediatrician visits (Poisson), among AKI survivors. RESULTS Of n = 2041, 355 (17%) had any AKI; 64/355 (18%) had nephrology; 198 (56%) had family physician or pediatrician; and 338 (95%) had family physician, pediatrician, or non-nephrology specialist follow-up by 1 year post discharge. Only 44/142 (31%) stage 2-3 AKI patients had nephrology follow-up by 1 year. Inpatient nephrology consult (adjusted hazard ratio (aHR) 7.76 [95% confidence interval (CI) 4.89-12.30]), kidney admission diagnosis (aHR 4.26 [2.21-8.18]), and AKI non-recovery by discharge (aHR 2.65 [1.55-4.55]) were associated with 1-year nephrology follow-up among any AKI survivors. CONCLUSIONS Nephrology follow-up after AKI was uncommon, but nearly all AKI survivors had follow-up with non-nephrologist physicians. This suggests that AKI follow-up knowledge translation strategies for non-nephrology providers should be a priority. IMPACT Pediatric AKI survivors have high long-term rates of chronic kidney disease (CKD) and hypertension, justifying regular kidney health surveillance after AKI. However, there is limited pediatric data on follow-up after AKI, including the factors associated with nephrology referral and extent of non-nephrology follow-up. We found that only one-fifth of all AKI survivors and one-third of severe AKI (stage 2-3) survivors have nephrology follow-up within 1 year post discharge. However, 95% are seen by a family physician, pediatrician, or non-nephrology specialist within 1 year post discharge. This suggests that knowledge translation strategies for AKI follow-up should be targeted at non-nephrology healthcare providers.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Intra-dialytic hypotension (IDH) is the most common serious adverse event in paediatric haemodialysis (HD). Repeated IDH results in chronic multi-organ damage and increased mortality. At the Hospital for Sick Children, Toronto, retrospective data from all in-centre HD sessions revealed frequently occurring IDH events (16.5 ± 5.6% of HD sessions per week). Based on literature review and clinical expertise, fluid volume management was selected as a potential modifiable risk factor to decrease IDH. Root causes identified as contributing to IDH were incorporated into a Paediatric haemodialysis fluid volume management (PedHDfluid) program using the Model for Improvement methodology including rapid cycles of change. METHODS Multiple measures were evaluated including (i) Outcome: IDH events per number of HD sessions per week; (ii) Process: number of changes to estimated dry weight per number of HD sessions per week; (iii) Balancing: time spent on dry weight meeting per week. Data was analysed using statistical process control charts. We aimed to decrease IDH in our dialysis unit to < 10% of HD sessions per week over a 6-month period by implementing a PedHDfluid program, including a multifaceted dry weight assessment protocol, multidisciplinary meetings and electronic health records "Dry Weight Evaluation flow sheet/synopsis". RESULTS The project resulted in a decline in IDH events from 16.5 ± 5.6% to 8.8 ± 3.3% of HD sessions per week. More frequent dry weight changes and increased awareness of fluid removal goals were noted. CONCLUSIONS A multidisciplinary approach including regular assessment, guidelines and systematic discussion, with an embedded electronic health record assessment and data gathering tool may sustainably reduce IDH events. A higher resolution version of the Graphical abstract is available as Supplementary information.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Gordonia species, aerobic, weakly acid-fast, Gram-positive bacilli, are a rare cause of peritonitis in patients undergoing peritoneal dialysis (PD). We report the first pediatric case of PD-related peritonitis caused by Gordonia bronchialis. CASE PRESENTATION A 13-year-old girl with chronic kidney disease (CKD) stage 5D, on continuous cycling PD (CCPD) for 8 years, presented with cloudy PD effluent, with no abdominal discomfort or fever. Intra-peritoneal (IP) loading doses of vancomycin and ceftazidime were started at home after obtaining a PD effluent sample, which showed WBC 2,340 × 10 /L (59% neutrophils) and Gram-positive bacilli. On admission, she was clinically well and afebrile, with no history of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) infection, so vancomycin was discontinued, and IP ceftazidime and cefazolin were started, following a loading dose of intravenous cefazolin. Gordonia species grew after 5 days of incubation and later identified as Gordonia bronchialis. IP vancomycin was restarted as monotherapy, empirically for a total of 3 weeks therapy. A 2-week course of oral ciprofloxacin was added, based on susceptibility testing. PD catheter replacement was advised due to the risk of recurrence but was refused. A relapse occurred 16 days after discontinuing antibiotics, successfully treated with a 2-week course of IP ceftazidime and vancomycin. The PD catheter was removed and hemodialysis initiated. She received a further 2-week course of oral ciprofloxacin and amoxicillin-clavulanate post PD catheter removal. CONCLUSIONS Gordonia bronchialis is an emerging pathogen in PD peritonitis and appears to be associated with a high risk of relapse. PD catheter replacement is strongly suggested.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Chronic kidney disease (CKD) and kidney failure in childhood are associated with significant and life-altering morbidities and lower quality of life. Emerging evidence suggests that management should be guided in part by symptom burden; however, there is currently no standardized assessment tool for quantifying symptom burden in this pediatric population. This study aimed to develop and refine a patient-reported symptom assessment tool for children with CKD/kidney failure (PRO-Kid), to evaluate the frequency and impact of symptoms. METHODS This was a prospective observational study of children and caregivers of children with CKD/kidney failure at two Canadian pediatric care centers. Building on previously published patient-reported outcome measures (PROs) for the assessment of symptom burden in other populations, we drafted a 13-item questionnaire. Cognitive interviews were performed with children and caregivers of children with CKD/kidney failure to iteratively refine the questionnaire. RESULTS Twenty-four participants completed cognitive interviewing (11 children, 13 caregivers). The most common symptoms endorsed were feeling left out, feeling sad/depressed, inability to focus, tiredness, nausea, vomiting, not wanting to eat, and changes in the taste of food. Feeling left out was added to the questionnaire as almost all participants voiced this as a frequent and impactful symptom, resulting in a 14-item questionnaire. CONCLUSIONS PRO-Kid is the first pediatric CKD/kidney failure-specific PRO tool to assess symptom burden. Future work should validate this tool in a larger cohort so that it may be used to improve the care of children living with CKD/kidney failure. A higher resolution version of the Graphical abstract is available as Supplementary information.

Abstract
PURPOSE We compare differences in long-term kidney function between patients undergoing either radical nephrectomy (RN) or nephron-sparing surgery (NSS) in unilateral and bilateral Wilms tumor (WT), respectively. MATERIALS AND METHODS A systematic search was performed in September 2020. Comparative studies were evaluated according to Cochrane collaboration recommendations. Assessed long-term (>1-year postoperative) outcomes included chronic kidney disease, hypertension and glomerular filtration rate, among others. Odds ratio and mean difference with 95% confidence interval were extrapolated from available data for quantitative synthesis. Random-effects meta-analysis and meta-regression were performed according to study design and techniques. The systematic review was prospectively registered on PROSPERO (CRD42020205378). RESULTS A total of 23 studies describing 293 cases of unilateral WT and 386 cases of bilateral WT were included in the qualitative synthesis. Overall effect estimates demonstrate that patients undergoing RN have significantly increased odds of developing abnormal kidney function (OR 4.29, 95% CI 1.02, 18.00) and lower estimated glomerular filtration rate at long-term followup (mean difference -8.99, 95% CI -16.40, -1.58) compared to those undergoing NSS. In bilateral WT, patients undergoing RN with contralateral NSS have higher odds of developing abnormal kidney function (OR 3.82, 95% CI 1.76, 8.33) and hypertension (OR 5.81, 95% CI 1.31, 25.68) compared to bilateral NSS. CONCLUSIONS Current evidence is low quality but suggests that NSS for unilateral and bilateral WT may be associated with better kidney function or blood pressure at late followup. Further research to investigate sources of heterogeneity is recommended.

Abstract
Background: Cisplatin, a chemotherapy used to treat solid tumors, causes acute kidney injury (AKI), a known risk factor for chronic kidney disease and mortality. AKI diagnosis relies on biomarkers which are only measurable after kidney damage has occurred and functional impairment is apparent; this prevents timely AKI diagnosis and treatment. Metabolomics seeks to identify metabolite patterns involved in cell tissue metabolism related to disease or patient factors. The A Canadian study of Cisplatin mEtabolomics and NephroToxicity (ACCENT) team was established to harness the power of metabolomics to identify novel biomarkers that predict risk and discriminate for presence of cisplatin nephrotoxicity, so that early intervention strategies to mitigate onset and severity of AKI can be implemented. Objective: Describe the design and methods of the ACCENT study which aims to identify and validate metabolomic profiles in urine and serum associated with risk for cisplatin-mediated nephrotoxicity in children and adults. Design: Observational prospective cohort study. Setting: Six Canadian oncology centers (3 pediatric, 1 adult and 2 both). Patients: Three hundred adults and 300 children planned to receive cisplatin therapy. Measurements: During two cisplatin infusion cycles, serum and urine will be measured for creatinine and electrolytes to ascertain AKI. Many patient and disease variables will be collected prospectively at baseline and throughout therapy. Metabolomic analyses of serum and urine will be done using mass spectrometry. An untargeted metabolomics approach will be used to analyze serum and urine samples before and after cisplatin infusions to identify candidate biomarkers of cisplatin AKI. Candidate metabolites will be validated using an independent cohort. Methods: Patients will be recruited before their first cycle of cisplatin. Blood and urine will be collected at specified time points before and after cisplatin during the first infusion and an infusion later during cancer treatment. The primary outcome is AKI, defined using a traditional serum creatinine-based definition and an electrolyte abnormality-based definition. Chart review 3 months after cisplatin therapy end will be conducted to document kidney health and survival. Limitations: It may not be possible to adjust for all measured and unmeasured confounders when evaluating prediction of AKI using metabolite profiles. Collection of data across multiple sites will be a challenge. Conclusions: ACCENT is the largest study of children and adults treated with cisplatin and aims to reimagine the current model for AKI diagnoses using metabolomics. The identification of biomarkers predicting and detecting AKI in children and adults treated with cisplatin can greatly inform future clinical investigations and practices.

Abstract
Background Few studies have described associations between the AKI biomarkers urinary neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (NGAL) and kidney injury molecule-1 (KIM-1) with AKI in cisplatin-treated children. We aimed to describe excretion patterns of urine NGAL and KIM-1 and associations with AKI in children receiving cisplatin. Methods Participants (n=159) were enrolled between 2013 and 2017 in a prospective cohort study conducted in 12 Canadian pediatric hospitals. Participants were evaluated at early cisplatin infusions (at first or second cisplatin cycle) and late cisplatin infusions (last or second-to-last cycle). Urine NGAL and KIM-1 were measured (1) pre-cisplatin infusion, (2) post-infusion (morning after), and (3) at hospital discharge at early and late cisplatin infusions. Primary outcome: AKI defined by serum creatinine rise within 10 days post-cisplatin, on the basis of Kidney Disease Improving Global Outcomes guidelines criteria (stage 1 or higher). Results Of 159 children, 156 (median [interquartile range (IQR)] age: 5.8 [2.4-12.0] years; 78 [50%] female) had biomarker data available at early cisplatin infusions and 127 had data at late infusions. Forty six of the 156 (29%) and 22 of the 127 (17%) children developed AKI within 10 days of cisplatin administration after early and late infusions, respectively. Urine NGAL and KIM-1 concentrations were significantly higher in patients with versus without AKI (near hospital discharge of late cisplatin infusion, median [IQR] NGAL levels were 76.1 [10.0-232.7] versus 14.9 [5.4-29.7] ng/mg creatinine; KIM-1 levels were 4415 [2083-9077] versus 1049 [358-3326] pg/mg creatinine; P<0.01). These markers modestly discriminated for AKI (area under receiver operating characteristic curve [AUC-ROC] range: NGAL, 0.56-0.72; KIM-1, 0.48-0.75). Biomarker concentrations were higher and better discriminated for AKI at late cisplatin infusions (AUC-ROC range, 0.54-0.75) versus early infusions (AUC-ROC range, 0.48-0.65). Conclusions Urine NGAL and KIM-1 were modest at discriminating for cisplatin-associated AKI. Further research is needed to determine clinical utility and applicability of these markers and associations with late kidney outcomes.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Nephrotoxic medication (NTM) avoidance may prevent further kidney damage in children with acute kidney injury (AKI). We compared outpatient NTM prescriptions in children with or without AKI during pediatric intensive care (PICU) hospitalization. We hypothesize that children with AKI are prescribed NTMs at the same rate as those without it. METHODS This was a retrospective administrative data study of children <18 years, admitted to two PICUs in Montreal, Canada, from 2003 to 2005, with ≥30 days of provincial drug coverage. We evaluated the presence of ≥3 outpatient NTM prescriptions during the first year and 5 years after PICU discharge. RESULTS Of 970 children, 23% had PICU AKI. In the 1st-5th years after discharge, 18% AKI vs. 10% non-AKI and 13% AKI vs. 4% non-AKI patients received ≥3 NTM prescriptions, respectively. There was no association between PICU AKI and prescription of ≥3 NTMs during the first year (adjusted RR 1.02 [95% CI 0.95-1.10]) nor in the first 5 years post-discharge (adjusted RR 1.04 [95%CI 0.96-1.12]). CONCLUSIONS By offering a better understanding of the current state of outpatient NTM prescription to children with AKI, our study is a step toward considering strategies such as knowledge translation interventions for decreasing NTM exposure and improving outcomes in children with AKI.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Acute kidney Injury (AKI) in children undergoing cardiac surgery (CS) is strongly associated with hospital morbidity. Post-discharge CS AKI outcomes are less clear. We evaluated associations between AKI and post-discharge (a) healthcare utilization, (b) chronic kidney disease (CKD) or hypertension and (c) mortality. METHODS This is a retrospective two-centre cohort study of children surviving to hospital discharge after CS. Primary exposures were post-operative ≥Stage 1 AKI and ≥Stage 2 AKI defined by Kidney Disease Impoving Global Outcomes. Association of AKI with time to outcomes was determined using multivariable Cox-Proportional Hazards analysis. RESULTS Of 350 participants included (age 3.1 (4.5) years), 180 [51.4%] developed AKI and 60 [17.1%] developed ≥Stage 2 AKI. Twenty-eight (9%) participants developed CKD or hypertension (composite outcome), and 17 (5%) died within 5 years of discharge. Post-operative ≥Stage 1 and ≥Stage 2 AKI were not associated with post-discharge hospitalizations, emergency room (ER) visits, physician visits or CKD or hypertension in adjusted analyses. A trend was observed between ≥Stage 2 AKI and mortality but was not statistically significant. In unadjusted stratified analyses, AKI was associated with post-discharge hospitalizations in children with RACHS-1 score ≥3, complex chronic disease classification and children living in urban areas. CONCLUSIONS Post-CS AKI is not associated with post-discharge healthcare utilization, death and CKD or hypertension, though it may be associated with healthcare utilization in more complex paediatric CS children. Studies should aim to better understand post-CS healthcare utilization patterns and non-AKI risk factors for CKD, hypertension and mortality, to reduce adverse long-term outcomes after CS.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AKI is common during pediatric hospitalizations and associated with adverse short-term outcomes. However, long-term outcomes among survivors of pediatric AKI who received dialysis remain uncertain. METHODS To determine the long-term risk of kidney failure (defined as receipt of chronic dialysis or kidney transplant) or death over a 22-year period for pediatric survivors of dialysis-treated AKI, we used province-wide health administrative databases to perform a retrospective cohort study of all neonates and children (aged 0-18 years) hospitalized in Ontario, Canada, from April 1, 1996, to March 31, 2017, who survived a dialysis-treated AKI episode. Each AKI survivor was matched to four hospitalized pediatric comparators without dialysis-treated AKI, on the basis of age, sex, and admission year. We reported the incidence of each outcome and performed Cox proportional hazards regression analyses, adjusting for relevant covariates. RESULTS We identified 1688 pediatric dialysis-treated AKI survivors (median age 5 years) and 6752 matched comparators. Among AKI survivors, 53.7% underwent mechanical ventilation and 33.6% had cardiac surgery. During a median 9.6-year follow-up, AKI survivors were at significantly increased risk of a composite outcome of kidney failure or death versus comparators. Death occurred in 113 (6.7%) AKI survivors, 44 (2.6%) developed kidney failure, 174 (12.1%) developed hypertension, 213 (13.1%) developed CKD, and 237 (14.0%) had subsequent AKI. AKI survivors had significantly higher risks of developing CKD and hypertension versus comparators. Risks were greatest in the first year after discharge and gradually decreased over time. CONCLUSIONS Survivors of pediatric dialysis-treated AKI are at higher long-term risks of kidney failure, death, CKD, and hypertension, compared with a matched hospitalized cohort.

Abstract
Cisplatin is a chemotherapeutic agent highly excreted in urine and known to cause acute kidney injury (AKI). As AKI diagnosis by serum creatinine (SCr) is usually delayed, endeavors for finding early AKI biomarkers continue. This study aims to determine if urine platinum (UP) concentration 24 hours after cisplatin infusion is associated with AKI, and to evaluate the association between urine platinum and tubular damage biomarkers: neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (NGAL) and kidney injury molecule-1 (KIM-1). Children treated with cisplatin in 12 Canadian centers (April 2013 to December 2017) were included. Urine from the morning after the first cisplatin infusion of the first or second cisplatin cycle was measured for urine platinum, NGAL, and KIM-1. SCr and serum electrolytes were used to detect AKI by either SCr elevation or urinary electrolyte wasting (potassium, magnesium, phosphate). The associations of urine platinum with AKI, NGAL, and KIM-1 were assessed. A total of 115 participants (54% boys, median age, 8.5 years; interquartile range, 4.0-13.4) were included, of which 29 (25%) and 105 (91%) developed AKI defined by SCr and electrolyte criteria, respectively. Higher urine platinum was associated with higher cisplatin dose (Spearman rho, 0.21) and with younger age (Spearman rho, -0.33). Urine platinum was not associated with postinfusion AKIor KIM-1, but was weakly associated with NGAL, particularly in participants without SCr AKI (Pearson's r, 0.22). Urine platinum may be a marker of mild tubular injury but is not likely to be a useful biomarker of clinically evident AKI.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Over 50% of children with chronic kidney disease (CKD) have uncontrolled hypertension, increasing their long-term risk of cardiovascular disease and progression to kidney failure. Children receiving medications or dialysis may also experience acute blood pressure fluctuations accompanied by debilitating symptoms. We aimed to describe the perspectives of children with CKD and their parental caregivers on blood pressure, to inform patient-centered care. METHODS Secondary thematic analysis was conducted on qualitative data from the Standardized Outcomes in Nephrology-Children and Adolescents initiative, encompassing 16 focus groups, an international Delphi survey, and two consensus workshops. We analyzed responses from children with CKD (aged 8-21 years) and caregivers (of children aged 0-21 years) pertaining to blood pressure. RESULTS Overall, 120 patients and 250 caregivers from 22 countries participated. We identified five themes: invisibility and normalization (reassured by apparent normotension, absence of symptoms, expected links with CKD); confused by ambiguity (hypertension indistinguishable from cardiovascular disease, questioning need for prophylactic intervention, frustrated by inconsistent messages, struggling with technical skills in measurement); enabling monitoring and maintaining health (gauging wellbeing, preventing vascular complications); debilitating and constraining daily living (provoking anxiety and agitation, helpless and powerless, limiting life activities); and burden of medications (overwhelmed by quantity of tablets, distress from unexpected side effects). CONCLUSIONS For children with CKD and their caregivers, blood pressure was an important heath indicator, but uncertainty around its implications and treatment hampered management. Providing educational resources to track blood pressure, and minimizing symptoms and treatment burden, may improve outcomes in children with CKD.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Children undergoing cardiac surgery are at risk of high blood pressure (BP), a risk factor for cardiovascular and kidney disease. Twenty-four-hour ambulatory BP monitoring (ABPM) is a reference standard hypertension (HTN) test. Little data exist on ABPM abnormalities in children several years post cardiac surgery. This study aimed to (a) determine ABPM feasibility; (b) describe and compare ABPM measures and abnormalities (percent load, masked HTN [MH]; non-dipping, mean systolic/diastolic BP > 95th percentile; pre-HTN (ABPM); white-coat HTN [WCH]) to casual BP; and (c) compare BP in patients with and without acute kidney injury (AKI). METHODS Prospective, follow-up pilot study of children (0-18 years) who underwent cardiac surgery from 2007 to 2009 at Montreal Children's Hospital. We recorded if participants had post-operative AKI and assessed the following outcomes at 9-year follow-up: casual BP classified by three single-visit measures (normal; elevated BP [eBPSingleVisit]; HTNSingleVisit); ABPM. Bivariable analyses were used to compare characteristics between groups. RESULTS Twenty-three patients (median [interquartile range], 8.6 [8.0, 9.0] years post cardiac surgery) were included; 16 (70%) male. Six participants (26%) had eBPSingleVisit or higher. On ABPM, 11 (48%) had ≥ 1 abnormality: 9 (39%) had non-dipping; 3 (13%) had pre-HTN; 3 (13%) had WCH; none had HTN or MH. There were no differences in ABPM according to AKI status. CONCLUSION Our pilot study determined that ABPM was feasible in children years after cardiac surgery and frequently identified ABPM abnormalities. Future research in larger populations is needed to define specific risk factors for HTN in children after cardiac surgery.

Abstract
IMPORTANCE The long-term risk of hypertension in children after surgery for congenital heart disease (CHD) is unclear. OBJECTIVE To assess the incidence of hypertension after cardiac surgery in children with CHD. DESIGN, SETTING, AND PARTICIPANTS A multicenter retrospective matched cohort study was conducted in Ontario, Canada, using administrative databases. A total of 3600 children with surgical repair of CHD were matched to 10 children (n = 36 000) from the general population without CHD on age, sex, index date, rurality, and neighborhood income. MAIN OUTCOMES AND MEASURES Diagnosis of hypertension over a median follow-up time of 9.8 years (interquartile range, 6.8-12.9 years) after surgery. The last follow-up was March 31, 2019. RESULTS Overall, in 3600 children with surgical repair of CHD, the median age at first surgery was 150 days (interquartile range, 40-252 days) and 2005 (55.7%) were boys. During follow-up, 445 (12.4%) children with surgical repair of CHD developed hypertension compared with 398 (1.1%) in the matched control group. The incidence rate of hypertension in children who received surgery for CHD was 141.3 (95% CI, 128.8-155.1) per 10 000 person-years compared with children in the matched control group, who had a rate of 11.1 (95% CI, 10.1-12.3) per 10 000 person-years. The risk of hypertension was higher in children with index surgical dates at an age of less 150 days compared with those who had surgical dates at an age of 150 days or older (P = .006 for interaction). The risk of hypertension was increased in children with more complex surgery, particularly children with hypoplastic left heart syndrome (49 of 140 [35.0%]), and in children who received dialysis (22 of 126 [17.5%]; hazard ratio, 1.67; 95% CI, 1.09-2.56) during the index cardiac surgery hospitalization. CONCLUSIONS AND RELEVANCE The incidence of long-term hypertension in this study was 12 times higher in children with surgical repair of CHD compared with children in the matched control group. The findings suggest that interventions aimed at reducing the long-term risk of hypertension after cardiac surgery in this population are needed.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES It is unknown whether children with acute kidney injury during PICU admission have kidney function monitored after discharge. Objectives: 1) describe postdischarge serum creatinine monitoring after PICU acute kidney injury and 2) determine factors associated with postdischarge serum creatinine monitoring. DESIGN Secondary analysis of longitudinal cohort study data. SETTING Two PICUs in Montreal and Edmonton, Canada. PATIENTS Children (0-18 yr old) surviving PICU admission greater than or equal to 2 days from 2005 to 2011. Exclusions: postcardiac surgery and prior kidney disease. Exposure: acute kidney injury by Kidney Disease: Improving Global Outcomes serum creatinine definition. INTERVENTIONS None. MEASUREMENTS Primary outcome: postdischarge serum creatinine measured by 90 days, 1 year, and 5-7 years. SECONDARY OUTCOMES Healthcare events and nephrology follow-up. ANALYSIS Proportions with outcomes; logistic regression to evaluate factors associated with the primary outcome. Kaplan-Meier analysis of time to serum creatinine measurement and healthcare events. MAIN RESULTS Of n = 277, 69 (25%) had acute kidney injury; 29/69 (42%), 34/69 (49%), and 51/69 (74%) had serum creatinine measured by 90 days, 1 year, and 5-7 year postdischarge, respectively. Acute kidney injury survivors were more likely to have serum creatinine measured versus nonacute kidney injury survivors at all time points (p ≤ 0.01). Factors associated with 90-day serum creatinine measurement were inpatient nephrology consultation (unadjusted odds ratio [95% CI], 14.9 [1.7-127.0]), stage 2-3 acute kidney injury (adjusted odds ratio, 3.4 [1.1-10.2]), and oncologic admission diagnosis (adjusted odds ratio, 10.0 [1.1-93.5]). A higher proportion of acute kidney injury versus nonacute kidney injury survivors were readmitted by 90 days (25 [36%] vs 44 [21%]; p = 0.01) and 1 year (33 [38%] vs 70 [34%]; p = 0.04). Of 24 acute kidney injury survivors diagnosed with chronic kidney disease or hypertension at 5-7 year follow-up, 16 (67%) had serum creatinine measurement and three (13%) had nephrology follow-up postdischarge. CONCLUSIONS Half of PICU acute kidney injury survivors have serum creatinine measured within 1-year postdischarge and follow-up is suboptimal for children developing long-term kidney sequelae. Knowledge translation strategies should emphasize the importance of serum creatinine monitoring after childhood acute kidney injury.

Abstract
PURPOSE This article provides guidance on managing acute kidney injury (AKI) and kidney replacement therapy (KRT) in pediatrics during the COVID-19 pandemic in the Canadian context. It is adapted from recently published rapid guidelines on the management of AKI and KRT in adults, from the Canadian Society of Nephrology (CSN). The goal is to provide the best possible care for pediatric patients with kidney disease during the pandemic and ensure the health care team's safety. INFORMATION SOURCES The Canadian Association of Paediatric Nephrologists (CAPN) COVID-19 Rapid Response team derived these rapid guidelines from the CSN consensus recommendations for adult patients with AKI. We have also consulted specific documents from other national and international agencies focused on pediatric kidney health. We identified additional information by reviewing the published academic literature relevant to pediatric AKI and KRT, including recent journal articles and preprints related to COVID-19 in children. Finally, our group also sought expert opinions from pediatric nephrologists across Canada. METHODS The leadership of the CAPN, which is affiliated with the CSN, solicited a team of clinicians and researchers with expertise in pediatric AKI and acute KRT. The goal was to adapt the guidelines recently adopted for Canadian adult patients for pediatric-specific settings. These included specific COVID-19-related themes relevant to AKI and KRT in a Canadian setting, as determined by a group of kidney disease experts and leaders. An expert group of clinicians in pediatric AKI and acute KRT reviewed the revised pediatric guidelines. KEY FINDINGS (1) Current Canadian data do not suggest an imminent threat of an increase in acute KRT needs in children because of COVID-19; however, close coordination between nephrology programs and critical care programs is crucial as the pandemic continues to evolve. (2) Pediatric centers should prepare to reallocate resources to adult centers as needed based on broader health care needs during the COVID-19 pandemic. (3) Specific suggestions pertinent to the optimal management of AKI and KRT in COVID-19 patients are provided. These suggestions include but are not limited to aspects of fluid management, KRT vascular access, and KRT modality choice. (4) Considerations to ensure adequate provision of KRT if resources become scarce during the COVID-19 pandemic. LIMITATIONS We did not conduct a formal systematic review or meta-analysis. We did not evaluate our specific suggestions in the clinical environment. The local context, including how the provision of care for AKI and acute KRT is organized, may impede the implementation of many suggestions. As knowledge is advancing rapidly in the area of COVID-19, suggestions may become outdated quickly. Finally, most of the literature for AKI and KRT in COVID-19 comes from adult data, and there are few pediatric-specific studies. IMPLICATIONS Given that most acute KRT related to COVID-19 is likely to be required in the pediatric intensive care unit initial setting, close collaboration and planning between critical care and pediatric nephrology programs are needed. Our group will update these suggestions with a supplement if necessary as newer evidence becomes available that may change or add to the recommendations provided.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION We aimed to characterize acute kidney injury (AKI), fluid overload (FO), and renal replacement therapy (RRT) utilization by diagnostic categories and examine associations between these complications and mortality by category. METHODS To test our hypotheses, we conducted a retrospective multicenter, cohort study including 446 neonates (categories: 209 with cardiac disease, 114 with congenital diaphragmatic hernia [CDH], 123 with respiratory disease) requiring extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) between January 1, 2007, and December 31, 2011. RESULTS AKI, FO, and RRT each varied by diagnostic category. AKI and RRT receipt were most common in those neonates with cardiac disease. Subjects with CDH had highest peak %FO (51% vs. 28% cardiac vs. 32% respiratory; p < 0.01). Hospital survival was 55% and varied by diagnostic category (45% cardiac vs. 48% CDH vs. 79% respiratory; p < 0.001). A significant interaction suggested risk of mortality differed by diagnostic category in the presence or absence of AKI. In its absence, diagnosis of CDH (vs. respiratory disease) (OR 3.04, 95% CL 1.14-8.11) independently predicted mortality. In all categories, peak %FO (OR 1.20, 95% CL 1.11-1.30) and RRT receipt (OR 2.12, 95% CL 1.20-3.73) were independently associated with mortality. DISCUSSION/CONCLUSIONS Physiologically distinct ECMO diagnoses warrant individualized treatment strategies given variable incidence and effects of AKI, FO, and RRT by category on mortality.
