摘要

Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a common adverse event after hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT). AKI is associated with early death or chronic kidney disease among transplant survivors. However, large-scale pediatric studies based on standardized criteria are lacking. We performed a retrospective analysis of 1057 pediatric patients who received allogeneic HCT to evaluate the incidence and risk factors of AKI according to AKI Network criteria within the first 100 days of HCT. We also determined the effect of AKI on patient survival. The 100-day cumulative incidences of all stages of AKI, stage 3 AKI, and AKI requiring renal replacement therapy (RRT) were 68.2% +/- 1.4%, 25.0% HCT 13%, and 7.6% +/- .8%, respectively. Overall survival at 1 year was not different between patients without AKI and those with stage 1 or 2 AKI (66.1% versus 73.4% versus 63.9%, respectively) but was significantly different between patients without AKI and patients with stage 3 AKI with or without RRT requirement (66.1% versus 47.3% versus 7.5%, respectively; P<.001). Age, year of transplantation, donor type, sinusoidal obstruction syndrome (SOS), and acute graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) were independent risk factors for stages 1 through 3 AKI. Age, donor, conditioning regimen, number of Has, SOS, and acute GVHD were independent risk factors for AKI requiring RRT. Our study revealed that AKI was a prevalent adverse event, and severe stage 3 AKI, which was associated with reduced survival, was common after pediatric allogeneic HCT. All patients receiving allogeneic HCT, especially those with multiple risk factors, require careful renal monitoring according to standardized criteria to minimize nephrotoxic insults.
