Abstract
INTRODUCTION Acute Kidney Injury (AKI) in the Intensive Care Unit (ICU) have concepts of diagnosis and management have water balance as their main point of evaluation. In our ICU, from 2004 to 2012, the nephrologist's participation was on demand only; and as of 2013 their participation became continuous in meetings to case discussion. The aim of this study was to establish how an intense nephrologist/intensivist interaction influenced the frequency of dialysis indication, fluid balance and pRIFLE classification during these two observation periods. METHODS Retrospective study, longitudinal evaluation of all children with AKI undergoing dialysis (2004 to 2016). PARAMETERS STUDIED frequency of indication, duration and volume of infusion in the 24 hours preceding dialysis; diuresis and water balance every 8 hours. Non-parametric statistics, p ≤ 0.05. RESULTS 53 patients (47 before and 6 after 2013). There were no significant differences in the number of hospitalizations or cardiac surgeries between the periods. After 2013, there was a significant decrease in the number of indications for dialysis/year (5.85 vs. 1.5; p = 0.000); infusion volume (p = 0.02), increase in the duration of dialysis (p = 0.002) and improvement in the discrimination of the pRIFLE diuresis component in the AKI development. CONCLUSION Integration between the ICU and pediatric nephrology teams in the routine discussion of cases, critically approaching water balance, was decisive to improve the management of AKI in the ICU.

Abstract
BACKGROUND APOL1 high-risk genotypes (HRG) are associated with increased risk of kidney disease in individuals of African ancestry. We analyzed the effects of APOL1 risk variants on an ethnically diverse Brazilian pediatric nephrotic syndrome (NS) cohort. METHODS Multicenter study including 318 NS patients, categorized as progressors to advanced CKD [estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR)] < 30 mL/min/1.73 m2] and slow/non-progressors (eGFR > 30 mL/min/1.73 m2 through the study). We employed Cox regression with progression time as the outcome and APOL1 genotype as the independent variable. We tested this association in the entire cohort and three subgroups; (1) focal segmental glomerulosclerosis (FSGS), (2) steroid-resistant NS (SRNS), and (3) those who underwent kidney biopsy. RESULTS Nineteen patients (6%) had an HRG. Of these, 47% were self-reported White. Patients with HRG manifested NS at older ages and presented higher frequencies of FSGS and SRNS. HRG patients progressed to advanced CKD more often than low-risk-genotype (LRG) children in the whole NS cohort (p = 0.001) and the three subgroups. In SRNS and biopsied patients, a single risk variant was associated with trends of higher CKD progression risk. CONCLUSIONS Novel discoveries include a substantial prevalence of HRG among patients self-reported White, worse kidney outcomes in HRG versus LRG children in the FSGS subgroup, and a trend of higher CKD progression risk associated with a single risk variant in the SRNS cohort. These findings suggest APOL1-associated NS extends beyond patients self-reported non-White, the HRG effect is independent of FSGS, and a single risk variant may have a detrimental impact in children with NS.

Promises and pitfalls of whole-exome sequencing exemplified by a nephrotic syndrome family. Mol Genet Genomics 2019; 295:135-142.

Abstract
High-throughput techniques such as whole-exome sequencing (WES) show promise for the identification of candidate genes that underlie Mendelian diseases such as nephrotic syndrome (NS). These techniques have enabled the identification of a proportion of the approximately 54 genes associated with NS. However, the main pitfall of using WES in clinical and research practice is the identification of multiple variants, which hampers interpretation during downstream analysis. One useful strategy is to evaluate the co-inheritance of rare variants in affected family members. Here, we performed WES of a patient with steroid-resistant NS (SRNS) and intermittent microhematuria. Currently, 15 years after kidney transplantation, this patient presents normal kidney function. The patient was found to be homozygous for a rare MYO1E stop-gain variant, and was heterozygous for rare variants in NS-associated genes, COL4A4, KANK1, LAMB2, ANLN, E2F3, and APOL1. We evaluated the presence or absence of these variants in both parents and 11 siblings, three of whom exhibited a milder phenotype of the kidney disease. Analysis of variant segregation in the family, indicated the MYO1E stop-gain variant as the putative causal variant underlying the kidney disease in the patient and two of her affected sisters. Two secondary variants in COL4A4-identified in some other affected family members-require further functional studies to determine whether they play a role in the development of microhematuria in affected family members. Our data illustrate the difficulties in distinguishing the causal pathogenic variants from incidental findings after WES-based variant analysis, especially in heterogenous genetic conditions, such as NS.

Abstract
The Brazilian collaborative registry for pediatric renal transplantation began in 2004 as a multicenter initiative aimed at analyzing, reporting, and disseminating the results of pediatric renal transplantation in Brazil. Data from all pediatric renal transplants performed from January 2004 to May 2018 at the 13 participating centers were analyzed. A total of 2744 pediatric renal transplants were performed in the thirteen participating centers. The median age at transplantation was 12.2 years, with the majority being male recipients (56%). The main underlying diseases were CAKUT (40.5%) and glomerulopathy (28%). 1981 (72%) of the grafts were from deceased donors (DD). Graft survival at one year (censored by death) was 94% in the live donor group (LD) and 91% in the DD group (log-rank test P < 0.01). The patient's survival at one and 5 years was 97% and 95% for the LD group and 96% and 93% for the DD group (log-rank test P = 0.02). The graft loss rate was 19% (n = 517), more frequently caused by vascular thrombosis (n = 102) and chronic graft nephropathy (n = 90). DD recipients had 1.6 (1.0-2.2) times greater chance of death and 1.5 (1.2-1.8) times greater chance of graft loss compared to LD recipients. The mortality rate was 5.4% (n = 148), mainly due to infection (n = 69) and cardiovascular disease (n = 28). The results of this collaborative pediatric renal transplant record are comparable to other international registries, although we still have a high infection rate as a cause of death.

Abstract
Objective To develop a clinical score for the early identification of chronic kidney disease (CKD) in children and adolescents. The early diagnosis of CKD in childhood allows the adoption of measures to slow the progression of the disease, thereby reducing morbidity and mortality. Nevertheless, the diagnosis is often made too late for proper patient management. Study design We preformed a case-control study of a multicenter Brazilian sample of 752 pediatric patients; the study cases (n = 376) were CKD patients with a median estimated GFR of 37 (IQR = 22 to 57) ml/min/1.73 m2. The control group (n = 376) comprised age-, gender- and center-matched children who were followed for nonrenal diseases. Potential risk factors were investigated through a standard questionnaire that included symptoms, medical history, and a clinical examination. Two multivariable models (A and B) were fitted to assess predictors of the diagnosis of CKD. Results In model A, 9 variables were associated with CKD diagnosis: antenatal ultrasound with urinary malformation, recurrent urinary tract infection, polyuria, abnormal urine stream, nocturia, growth curve flattening, history of hypertension, foamy urine and edema (c-statistic = 0.938). Model B had the same variables as model A, except for the addition of the history of admission during the neonatal period and the exclusion of antenatal ultrasound variables (c-statistic = 0.927). Conclusions The present scores may serve as a warning sign for CKD diagnosis in children among professionals working in the primary care setting where the symptoms associated with a risk of CKD may be overlooked.

Abstract
Hypercalcemia is a rare condition in childhood; the most common causes are primary hyperparathyroidism, malignancy, prolonged immobilisation, thyrotoxicosis, thiazide diuretic, supplements containing calcium, milk-alkali syndrome, vitamin D intoxication, infections and idiopathic. We present three cases of severe hypercalcemia of unusual causes in children. The first patient had high fever, poor general condition, weight loss and myalgia. Extensive preliminary investigation did not define the etiology, but a review of medical history revealed prolonged contact with pet bird and a positive serology for Chlamydia confirmed the diagnosis of psittacosis. The second patient had generalized lymphadenopathy and hepatosplenomegaly with fever a month ago. Paracoccidioides brasiliensis was identified in myelogram; the patient showed partial improvement with the use of co-trimoxazole, with subsequent emergence of multiple osteolytic lesions. A smear of gastric lavage was positive for Mycobacterium tuberculosis and the patient was treated with rifampicin, isoniazid, ethambutol and pyrazinamide, with improvement of clinical condition. The third patient was treated by hypercalciuria and idiopathic hypomagnesiuria with daily use of cholecalciferol; the patient had a two quilograms of weight loss in the past two months. No cause of hypercalcemia could be detected in laboratory workout. The capsules of cholecalciferol were analyzed and presented an amount of 832,000 IU of vitamin D per capsule. Acute hypercalcemia in childhood may be due to exogenous vitamin D intoxication, as well as infectious causes. The possible causal relationship between psittacosis and occurrence of hypercalcemia alert to the need for detailed investigation of the epidemiological antecedents.

Abstract
Frasier syndrome (FS) is characterized by gonadal dysgenesis and nephropathy. It is caused by specific mutations in the Wilms' tumor suppressor gene (WT1) located in 11p23. Patients with the 46,XY karyotype present normal female genitalia with streak gonads, and have higher risk of gonadal tumor, mainly, gonadoblastoma. Therefore, elective bilateral gonadectomy is indicated. Nephropathy in FS consists in nephrotic syndrome (NS) with proteinuria that begins early in childhood and progressively increases with age, mainly due to nonspecific focal and segmental glomerular sclerosis (FSGS). Patients are generally unresponsive to steroid and immunosuppressive therapies, and will develop end-stage renal failure (ESRF) during the second or third decade of life. We report here four cases of FS diagnosis after identification of WT1 mutations. Case 1 was part of a large cohort of patients diagnosed with steroid-resistant nephrotic syndrome, in whom the screening for mutations within WT1 8-9 hotspot fragment identified the IVS9+5G>A mutation. Beside FS, this patient showed unusual characteristics, such as urinary malformation (horseshoe kidney), and bilateral dysgerminoma. Cases 2 and 3, also bearing the IVS9+5G>A mutation, and case 4, with IVS9+1G>A mutation, were studied due to FSGS and/or delayed puberty; additionally, patients 2 and 4 developed bilateral gonadal tumors. Since the great majority of FS patients have normal female external genitalia, sex reversal is not suspected before they present delayed puberty and/or primary amenorrhea. Therefore, molecular screening of WT1 gene is very important to confirm the FS diagnosis.

Abstract
OBJETIVO: avaliar o desempenho da haste extensível ancorada por ganchos (HIMEX) em deformidades da osteogênese imperfeita (OI). MÉTODOS: Todas as crianças operadas com HIMEX entre 1990 - 2004. Foi comparado o número de fraturas, reaparecimento de deformidades e capacidade de deambulação antes e após a HIMEX; incidência de migração e sobrevida da haste por curvas de sobrevivência. RESULTADOS: 14 pacientes (2 a 18 anos), oito do sexo feminino, incluindo 46 procedimentos, 39 primários e sete re-operações. Idade média na primeira fratura de 148,21 dias e média de 42,6 fraturas/paciente pré colocação da HIMEX. Dos 46 procedimentos, 28 no fêmur e 18 na tíbia. Tempo médio de seguimento de 80,21 ± 36,71 meses. Houve diminuição significativa de fraturas/paciente (0,78) e melhora na deambulação em sete dos 14 pacientes. Porcentagem de re-operação de 18% e migração do implante em 12% (05/39). 80 % dos implantes in situ até 108 meses. Implantes na tíbia tiveram sobrevida significativamente menor que os do fêmur. O tipo da OI e a idade na época da cirurgia não influenciaram significativamente a incidência de re-operação. CONCLUSÃO: A HIMEX levou à redução significativa no número de fraturas, incidência menor de migração e sobrevida maior da haste do que a referida na literatura.

Abstract
The apparent mineralocorticoid excess syndrome (AME) is a rare autosomal recessive disorder due to the deficiency of 11beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase type 2 enzyme (11beta-HSD2). The 11beta-HSD2 enzyme, encoded by HSD11B2 gene, metabolizes active cortisol in cortisone. Mutations on HSD11B2 gene affect the enzyme activity by leading to an excess of cortisol, which causes its inappropriate access to mineralocorticoid receptor. Therefore, cortisol will bind mineralocorticoid receptor. The human HSD11B2 gene maps to chromosome 16q22 and consists of five exons encoding a protein of 405 amino acids. We present here clinical and molecular studies on a Brazilian boy who was born pre-term after an oligodramnious pregnancy. He was diagnosed as having AME at the age of 26 months. His parents are second cousins. Molecular characterization of the HSD11B2 gene revealed the homozygous mutation p.R186C. The patient described here is the second case of HDS11B2 gene mutation reported in Brazilian patients with AME.

Abstract
Mutations in the vitamin D receptor (VDR) are associated to the hereditary 1,25-dihydroxivitamin D-resistant rickets. The objectives of this work are: search for mutations in the VDR and analyze their functional consequences in four Brazilian children presented with rickets and alopecia. The coding region of the VDR was amplified by PCR e direct sequenced. We identified three mutations: two patients had the same mutation in exon 7 at aminoacid position 259 (p.Q259E); one patient had a mutation in exon 8 at codon 319 (p.G319V) and another one had a mutation in exon 3 leading to a truncated protein at position 73 (p.R73X). Functional studies of the mutant receptors of fibroblast primary culture, from patients' skin biopsy treated with increasing doses of 1,25(OH)2 vitamin D showed that VDR mutants were unable to be properly activated and presented a reduction in 24-hydroxylase expression level.

Abstract
Growth failure is frequent and a clinically important issue in children with chronic kidney disease (CKD). Many factors contribute to impaired growth in these children, including abnormalities in the growth hormone (GH)--insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF-1) axis, malnutrition, acidosis, renal bone disease and glucocorticoid associated treatment. The management of growth failure in children with CKD is complicated by the presence of other-disease related complications requiring medical intervention. Despite evidence of GH efficacy and safety in this population, this therapy is still underutilized. This review shows the impact, the causes and the treatment of growth failure in children with CKD.

Abstract
OBJETIVO: Com a introdução e o aprimoramento de técnicas para a realização de fístulas arteriovenosas (FAV) em crianças, pacientes renais crônicos puderam iniciar tratamento com hemodiálise sem a necessidade de uso de shunts externos. MÉTODOS: Com o objetivo avaliar os resultados da confecção de fístulas arteriovenosas em crianças e adultos jovens de baixo peso e os fatores de risco relacionados. Foram levantados retrospectivamente os prontuários de 31 pacientes submetidos a 35 FAV, com idade variando de cinco a 24 anos, com peso entre 16 e 50kg. Os fatores de risco estudados foram hipertensão arterial, antecedentes de trombose, tendência à hipovolemia e presença de hipercolesterolemia. RESULTADOS: O índice de perda observado foi de 25% em pacientes com menos de 20kg e de 22,2% naqueles com mais de 20kg, resultados comparáveis aos da literatura. CONCLUSÕES: Observou-se que fístulas proximais não sofreram trombose; não houve relação entre a perda da FAV e os fatores de risco estudados e observou-se um índice de perda tardia de 23,5% nos pacientes que não estavam sendo submetidos à hemodiálise. Nos pacientes que utilizavam a FAV não se observou perda da mesma.

Abstract
O presente estudo tem como objetivo analisar os métodos utilizados para o tratamento das complicações relacionadas ao cateter de diálise peritoneal , avaliando-se o uso das vias aberta e laparoscópica. Vinte pacientes apresentaram 35 complicações relacionadas ao cateter de diálise (obstrução 60%, peritonite 34,3% e infecção do trajeto 5,7%) e foram tratados cirurgicamente. Para o tratamento das complicações, foram realizados 22 procedimentos por via aberta (laparotomia) e 13 por via laparoscópica. Através do método laparoscópico, foi possível desobstruir e manter o cateter em 80% dos cateteres obstruídos, ao passo que 100% foram trocados ou retirados quando a via aberta foi utilizada. O tempo necessário para reutilização completa do mesmo após o procedimento foi maior pelo método aberto. Os dados apresentados sugerem que a laparoscopia é um método eficaz como opção terapêutica para o tratamento das complicações relacionadas ao cateter de diálise peritoneal, pela visualização direta da cavidade peritoneal e possibilidade de reposicionamento ou desobstrução do mesmo, não sendo portanto necessária a sua troca e diminuindo também o tempo necessário para reutilização completa do cateter.
