    Association of delayed cord clamping with acute kidney injury and two-year kidney outcomes in extremely premature neonates: a secondary analysis of the Preterm Erythropoietin Neuroprotection Trial (PENUT)
    (Research Square, 2024-07-19) Harer, Matthew; Zapata, Henry; Todurkar, Namrata; Favel, Kristen; Griffin, Russell; Starr, Michelle; Charlton, Jennifer; McAdams, Ryan; Askenazi, David; Kulkarni, Tapas; Menon, Shina; Mammen, Cherry; Pediatrics, School of Medicine
    Background: Delayed cord clamping (DCC) occurs in most preterm births. Objective: Evaluate the association of DCC with acute kidney injury (AKI) and two-year kidney outcomes. Methods: Secondary analysis of the Preterm Erythropoietin Neuroprotection Trial of neonates born 240/7 to 276/7 weeks' gestation. AKI and two year kidney outcomes were compared in neonates with DCC (≥30 seconds after delivery) to those with early cord clamping (ECC) (<30 seconds after delivery). Results: The incidence and severity of AKI did not differ between the DCC and ECC groups (aOR 1.17 [95%CI 0.76-1.80]). At two years corrected age, DCC was associated with a 4.5-fold times increased adjusted odds of eGFR <90 mL/min/1.73m2. No significant associations were noted between DCC and albuminuria or elevated BP. Conclusions: DCC was not associated with decreased neonatal AKI, but was associated with higher adjusted odds of eGFR <90 mL/min/1.73m2 at two years.

    Incidence and outcomes of neonatal acute kidney injury (AWAKEN): a multicentre, multinational, observational cohort study
    (Elsevier, 2017-11) Jetton, Jennifer G.; Boohaker, Louis J.; Sethi, Sidharth K.; Wazir, Sanjay; Rohatgi, Smriti; Soranno, Danielle E.; Chishti, Aftab S.; Woroniecki, Robert; Mammen, Cherry; Swanson, Jonathan R.; Sridhar, Shanty; Wong, Craig S.; Kupferman, Juan C.; Griffin, Russell L.; Askenazi, David J.; Pediatrics, School of Medicine
    Background: Single-center studies suggest that neonatal acute kidney injury (AKI) is associated with poor outcomes. However, inferences regarding the association between AKI, mortality, and hospital length of stay are limited due to the small sample size of those studies. In order to determine whether neonatal AKI is independently associated with increased mortality and longer hospital stay, we analyzed the Assessment of Worldwide Acute Kidney Epidemiology in Neonates (AWAKEN) database. Methods: All neonates admitted to 24 participating neonatal intensive care units from four countries (Australia, Canada, India, United States) between January 1 and March 31, 2014, were screened. Of 4273 neonates screened, 2022 (47·3%) met study criteria. Exclusion criteria included: no intravenous fluids ≥48 hours, admission ≥14 days of life, congenital heart disease requiring surgical repair at <7 days of life, lethal chromosomal anomaly, death within 48 hours, inability to determine AKI status or severe congenital kidney abnormalities. AKI was defined using a standardized definition -i.e., serum creatinine rise of ≥0.3 mg/dL (26.5 mcmol/L) or ≥50% from previous lowest value, and/or if urine output was <1 mL/kg/h on postnatal days 2 to 7. Findings: Incidence of AKI was 605/2022 (29·9%). Rates varied by gestational age groups (i.e., ≥22 to <29 weeks =47·9%; ≥29 to <36 weeks =18·3%; and ≥36 weeks =36·7%). Even after adjusting for multiple potential confounding factors, infants with AKI had higher mortality compared to those without AKI [(59/605 (9·7%) vs. 20/1417 (1·4%); p< 0.001; adjusted OR=4·6 (95% CI=2·5-8·3); p=<0·0001], and longer hospital stay [adjusted parameter estimate 8·8 days (95% CI=6·1-11·5); p<0·0001]. Interpretation: Neonatal AKI is a common and independent risk factor for mortality and longer hospital stay. These data suggest that neonates may be impacted by AKI in a manner similar to pediatric and adult patients.
