Abstract
Epidermolysis bullosa (EB) is a genodermatosis that lacks effective treatments and requires supportive care for its severe, life-threatening manifestations. Bone marrow transplantation (BMT) and its derived cells have been suggested to improve clinical symptoms and quality of life. A comprehensive search was conducted for publications evaluating BMT and bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cell (BM-MSC) therapy for EB in PubMed/MEDLINE, Google Scholar, and Cochrane databases from inception until June 2023. A total of 55 participants with severe forms of EB had BMT and/or BM-MSCs, with recessive dystrophic EB as the most common EB type; 53 (96.4%) patients had better wound healing, and 3 (5.5%) patients died of sepsis. The most common adverse events reported were graft failure, sepsis, graft-versus-host disease, and renal insufficiency. Allogeneic BMT is a high-risk procedure with possible benefits and adverse events. BM-MSCs revealed favorable outcomes to improve the safety of EB cell-based therapy by minimizing the risk of serious adverse events, reducing blisters, and accelerating wound healing. Further studies are needed to assess the treatment's long-term effects and clarify the risk/benefit ratio of procedure versus conventional therapy.

Pediatr Nephrol 2024; 39:397-408. [PMID: 37079103 DOI: 10.1007/s00467-023-05964-4] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/14/2023] [Revised: 03/26/2023] [Accepted: 03/27/2023] [Indexed: 04/21/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Risk factors for acute kidney injury (AKI) in pediatric patients after hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) remain controversial. OBJECTIVES This study aimed to identify risk factors for AKI following HSCT in the pediatric population. DATA SOURCES PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, Cochrane Library, and Scopus databases were searched from inception to February 8, 2023. STUDY ELIGIBILITY CRITERIA Studies meeting the following criteria were included: (1) The study was a case-control, cohort study, or cross-sectional design, (2) the study was performed among pediatric and young patients aged 21 years or younger undergoing HSCT, (3) the study measured at least one related factor for AKI after pediatric HSCT, (4) the study included a sample of at least ten patients, and (5) original articles published in English in peer-reviewed scientific journals. PARTICIPANTS AND INTERVENTIONS Children who were undergoing pediatric HSCT. STUDY APPRAISAL AND SYNTHESIS METHODS We assessed the quality of the included studies and analyzed them with a random-effect model. RESULTS Fifteen studies with a total of 2,093 patients were included. All were cohort studies of high quality. The overall pooled incidence of AKI was 47.4% (95%CI 0.35, 0.60). We found significant associations between post-transplant AKI in pediatric patients and unrelated donor [odds ratio (OR) = 1.74, 95% confidence interval (CI) 1.09-2.79], cord blood stem cell transplantation (OR = 3.14, 95%CI 2.14-4.60), and veno-occlusive disease (VOD)/sinusoidal obstruction syndrome (SOS) (OR = 6.02, 95%CI 1.40-25.88). Other controversial factors such as myeloablative conditioning (MAC), acute graft vs. host disease (aGVHD), and the use of calcineurin inhibitors (CNI) were not found to be related to AKI after pediatric HSCT. LIMITATIONS Results were limited mainly by heterogeneity in the characteristics of patients and transplantation. CONCLUSIONS AND IMPLICATIONS OF KEY FINDINGS Posttransplant AKI in children is a common complication. Unrelated donors, cord blood stem cell transplantation, and VOD/SOS might be risk factors for AKI after pediatric HSCT. Further large-scale studies are still needed to draw firm conclusions.

Abstract
Eligibility and indication for autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) in patients with lymphoma are increasing. Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a known complication of HSCT with studies including a miscellaneous of hematological diagnoses and using different definitions of AKI. We aimed to evaluate incidence, risk factors and prognostic impact of AKI post-HSCT in patients with lymphoma submitted to autologous HSCT using the KDIGO classification with both serum creatinine and urinary output criteria. We performed a single-center retrospective cohort study including patients with lymphoma admitted for autologous HSCT. We used survival analysis with competing risks to evaluate cumulative incidence of AKI, AKI risk factors and AKI impact on disease-free survival. We used Cox regression for impact of AKI on overall survival. We used backward stepwise regression to create multivariable models. A total of 115 patients were included. Cumulative incidence of AKI: 63.7% 100 d post-HSCT. First diagnosis criteria: creatinine in 54.8%, urinary output in 41.1% and both in 4.1%. AKI highest stage: 1 in 57.5%, 2 in 17.8% and 3 in 24.7%. Variables independently associated with higher incidence of AKI were: use of nephrotoxic drugs (HR: 2.87, 95% CI: 1.07-7.65; p = 0.035), mucositis (HR: 1.95, 95% CI: 1.16-3.29; p = 0.012) and shock (HR: 2.63, 95% CI: 1.19-5.85; p = 0.017). Moderate to severe AKI was independently associated with lower overall survival (HR: 2.04, 95% CI: 1.06-3.94; p = 0.033). No association with relapse nor progression to chronic kidney disease (CKD) was found. AKI affects almost two thirds of patients with lymphomas submitted to autologous HSCT. Nephrotoxic drugs, mucositis and shock are important independent AKI risk factors. More than one third of AKI episodes are moderate to severe and these are associated with lower overall survival.

Predictors and significance of kidney dysfunction in patients with chronic graft-versus-host disease. Bone Marrow Transplant 2023; 58:1112-1120.

Abstract
Kidney complications have been studied in allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplant patients but not specifically among chronic graft-versus-host disease (cGVHD) patients. Participants (n = 365) enrolled in the cross-sectional cGVHD natural history study (NCT00092235) were assessed for kidney dysfunction and overall survival. Kidney dysfunction was analyzed for associations in univariate and multivariable analyses. Kidney dysfunction (eGFR < 60) was found in 64 patients, and 29 patients had moderate-severe kidney dysfunction (eGFR < 45). Patients with kidney dysfunction were more likely treated with cyclosporine at evaluation or to have received it for GVHD prophylaxis, or prior treatment of GVHD. Patients with kidney dysfunction were less severely affected by cGVHD of skin, mouth, and joints/fascia. In multivariable modeling, history of cyclosporine use (OR = 2.19, 95% CI 1.13-4.25), angiotensin receptor blocker use (OR = 5.57, 95% CI 1.49-20.84), proteinuria (OR = 2.39, 95% CI 1.19-4.79), lower CRP (OR = 0.95, 95% CI 0.91-0.99), lower C3 (OR = 0.98, 95% CI 0.97-0.99), and lower hemoglobin (OR = 0.70, 95% CI 0.58-0.84) were jointly associated with kidney dysfunction. Overall survival was lower in those with moderate-severe kidney dysfunction (p = 0.015), demonstrating the importance of addressing kidney dysfunction in this population. The association of kidney dysfunction with less severe cGVHD suggests an etiology unrelated to cGVHD but potentially a consequence of drug-related toxicities.

Abstract
Acute kidney injury is a common and important complication following hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. In the nephrology community, acute kidney injury is no longer viewed as a simple temporary and potentially reversible decline in kidney clearance as acute kidney injury imposes a risk for immediate and future complications. Therefore, stratifying patients for the risk of acute kidney injury following stem cell transplantation would be very helpful to optimize peri-stem cell transplant management and could potentially improve outcomes in this patient population. In the current issue of CKJ, Mancianti et al. report on the testing of the kidney's functional reserve in patients planned for stem cell transplantation and demonstrate that stem cell transplant candidates with a preserved kidney response on a protein load had a higher chance of full kidney recovery after an episode of acute kidney injury. In this editorial, we discuss the kidney's functional reserve test and its limitations.

Abstract
In recent years, the onco-nephrology field has acquired a relevant role in internal medicine due to the growing number of cases of renal dysfunction that have been observed in cancer patients. This clinical complication can be induced by the tumor itself (for example, due to obstructive phenomena affecting the excretory tract or by neoplastic dissemination) or by chemotherapy, as it is potentially nephrotoxic. Kidney damage can manifest as acute kidney injury or represent a worsening of pre-existing chronic kidney disease. In cancer patients, physicians should try to set preventive strategies to safeguard the renal function, avoiding the concomitant use of nephrotoxic drugs, personalizing the dose of chemotherapy according to the glomerular filtration rate (GFR) and using an appropriate hydration therapy in combination with nephroprotective compounds. To prevent renal dysfunction, a new possible tool useful in the field of onco-nephrology would be the development of a personalized algorithm for the patient based on body composition parameters, gender, nutritional status, GFR and genetic polymorphisms.

Abstract
Hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) is an established therapeutic strategy for the treatment of malignant (leukemia and lymphoma) and non-malignant (thalassemia, anemia, and immunodeficiency) hematopoietic diseases. Thanks to the improvement in patient care and the development of more tolerable conditioning treatments, which has extended the applicability of therapy to the elderly, a growing number of patients have successfully benefited from HSCT therapy and, more importantly, HSCT transplant-related mortality has consistently reduced in recent years. However, concomitantly to long term patient survival, a growing incidence of late HSCT-related sequelae has been reported, being variably associated with negative effects on quality of life of patients and having a non-negligible impact on healthcare systems. The most predominantly observed HSCT-caused complications are chronic alterations of the endocrine system and metabolism, which endanger post-operative quality of life and increase morbidity and mortality of transplanted patients. Here, we specifically review the current knowledge on HSCT-derived side-effects on the perturbation of mineral metabolism; in particular, the homeostasis of calcium, focusing on current reports regarding osteoporosis and recurrent renal dysfunctions that have been observed in a percentage of HSC-transplanted patients. Possible secondary implications of conditioning treatments for HSCT on the physiology of the parathyroid glands and calcium homeostasis, alone or in association with HSCT-caused renal and bone defects, are critically discussed as well.

Abstract
Advances in cancer therapy have significantly improved overall patient survival; however, AKI remains a common complication in patients with cancer, occurring in anywhere from 11% to 22% of patients, depending on patient-related or cancer-specific factors. Critically ill patients with cancer as well as patients with certain malignancies (e.g., leukemias, lymphomas, multiple myeloma, and renal cell carcinoma) are at highest risk of developing AKI. AKI may be a consequence of the underlying malignancy itself or from the wide array of therapies used to treat it. Cancer-associated AKI can affect virtually every compartment of the nephron and can present as subclinical AKI or as overt acute tubular injury, tubulointerstitial nephritis, or thrombotic microangiopathy, among others. AKI can have major repercussions for patients with cancer, potentially jeopardizing further eligibility for therapy and leading to greater morbidity and mortality. This review highlights the epidemiology of AKI in critically ill patients with cancer, risk factors for AKI, and common pathologies associated with certain cancer therapies, as well as the management of AKI in different clinical scenarios. It highlights gaps in our knowledge of AKI in patients with cancer, including the lack of validated biomarkers, as well as evidence-based therapies to prevent AKI and its deleterious consequences.

Abstract
The goal of curing children and adults with sickle cell disease (SCD) is to maximize benefits and minimize intermediate and long-term adverse outcomes so that individuals can live an average life span with a high quality of life. While greater than 2000 individuals with SCD have been treated with curative therapy, systematic studies have not been performed to evaluate the long-term health effects of hematopoietic stem cell transplant (HSCT) in this population. Individuals with SCD suffer progressive heart, lung, and kidney disease prior to curative therapy. In adults, these sequalae are associated with earlier death. In comparison, individuals who undergo HSCT for cancer are heavily pretreated with chemotherapy, resulting in potential acute and chronic heart, lung, and kidney disease. The long-term health effects on the heart, lung, and kidney for children and adults undergoing HSCT for cancer have been extensively investigated. These studies provide the best available data to extrapolate the possible late health effects after curative therapy for SCD. Future research is needed to evaluate whether HSCT abates, stabilizes, or exacerbates heart, lung, kidney, and other diseases in children and adults with SCD receiving myeloablative and non-myeloablative conditioning regimens for curative therapy.

Abstract
Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a common complication of allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (allo-HCT) and is associated with non-relapse mortality (NRM) and quality of life (QOL). Multiple factors may contribute to AKI during allo-HCT and are often present at the same time making it difficult to determine the cause of AKI in each patient. Nephrotoxic drugs, infections, thrombotic microangiopathy (TMA), and sinusoidal obstruction syndrome (SOS) are well described causes of AKI during allo-HCT. Acute graft-versus-host disease (aGVHD) is a major complication of allo-HCT that mainly targets the intestines, liver, and skin. However, recent studies suggest aGVHD may also attack the kidney and contribute to AKI following allo-HCT. For example, severe aGVHD is associated with AKI, suggesting a link between the two. In addition, animal models have shown donor immune cell infiltration and increased expression of inflammatory cytokines in recipient kidneys after allo-HCT. Therefore, aGVHD may also target the kidney and contribute to AKI following allo-HCT. Herein, we describe the etiology, diagnosis, risk factors, pathophysiology, prevention, and treatment of renal injury after allo-HCT. In addition, we highlight emerging evidence that aGVHD may contribute to the development of AKI after allo-HCT.

Abstract
Hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (SCT) provides a curative option for the treatment of several malignancies. Its growing use is associated with an increased burden of kidney disease. Acute kidney injury is usually seen within the first 100 days of transplantation and has an incidence ranging between 12 and 73%, with the highest rate in myeloablative allogeneic SCT. A large subset of patients after SCT develop chronic kidney disease. They can be broadly classified into thrombotic microangiopathy, nephrotic syndrome, and calcineurin toxicity. Dialysis requirement after SCT is associated with mortality exceeding 80%. Given the higher morbidity and mortality related to development kidney disease, nephrologists need to be aware of the various causes and best treatment options.

Abstract
The aim of the review is to present the most common renal complications after HSCT such as acute kidney injury, chronic kidney disease glomerulopathies. HSCT is a critical therapy for many cancer patients with cancer, as well as patients with some other nonmalignant hematologic disorders and certain congenital immune deficiencies. Kidney complications after HSCT in a form of acute kidney injury is associated with significant morbidity and worse patient outcome. In addition, risk of chronic kidney disease is also increased following HSCT. It is very important to be aware, prevent, early recognize and treat renal damage to improve kidney and patient survival.

Abstract
Onco-nephrology has been a growing field within the adult nephrology scope of practice. Even though pediatric nephrologists have been increasingly involved in the care of children with different forms of malignancy, there has not been an emphasis on developing special expertise in this area. The fast pace of discovery in this field, including the development of new therapy protocols with their own kidney side effects and the introduction of the CD19-targeted chimeric antigen receptor T cell (CAR-T) therapy, has introduced new challenges for general pediatric nephrologists because of the unique effects of these treatments on the kidney. Moreover, with the improved outcomes in children receiving cancer therapy come an increased number of survivors at risk for chronic kidney disease related to both their cancer diagnosis and therapy. Therefore, it is time for pediatric onco-nephrology to take its spot on the expanding subspecialties map in pediatric nephrology.

Abstract
Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a common complication of cancer that occurs in up to 50% of neoplastic patients during the natural history of their disease; furthermore, it has a huge impact on key outcomes such as overall prognosis, length of hospitalization and costs. AKI in cancer patients has different causes, either patient-, tumour- or treatment-related. Patient-related risk factors for AKI are the same as in the general population, whereas tumour-related risk factors are represented by compression, obstruction, direct kidney infiltration from the tumour as well by precipitation, aggregation, crystallization or misfolding of paraprotein (as in the case of multiple myeloma). Finally, treatment-related risk factors are the most common observed in clinical practice and may present also with the feature of tumour lysis syndrome or thrombotic microangiopathies. In the absence of validated biomarkers, a multidisciplinary clinical approach that incorporates adequate assessment, use of appropriate preventive measures and early intervention is essential to reduce the incidence of this life-threatening condition in cancer patients.

Independent risk factors and long-term outcomes for acute kidney injury in pediatric patients undergoing hematopoietic stem cell transplantation: a retrospective cohort study.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Acute kidney injury (AKI) remains a frequent complication in children undergoing hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) and an independent risk factor of the patient's survival and a prognostic factor of progression to chronic kidney disease (CKD). However, the causes of these complications are diverse, usually overlapping, and less well understood. METHODS This retrospective analysis was performed in 43 patients (28 boys, 15 girls; median age, 5.5 years) undergoing HSCT between April 2006 and March 2019. The main outcome was the development of AKI defined according to the Pediatric Risk, Injury, Failure, Loss, End-stage Renal Disease (pRIFLE) criteria as ≥ 25% decrease in estimated creatinine clearance. The secondary outcome was the development of CKD after a 2-year follow-up. RESULTS AKI developed in 21 patients (49%) within 100 days after HSCT. After adjusting for possible confounders, posttransplant AKI was associated with matched unrelated donor (MUD) (HR, 6.26; P = 0.042), but not total body irradiation (TBI). Of 37 patients who were able to follow-up for 2 years, 7 patients died, but none had reached CKD during the 2 years after transplantation. CONCLUSIONS Posttransplant AKI was strongly associated with HSCT from MUD. Although the incidence of AKI was high in our cohort, that of posttransplant CKD was lower than reported previously in adults. TBI dose reduced, GVHD minimized, and infection prevented are required to avoid late renal dysfunction after HSCT in children since their combinations may contribute to the occurrence of AKI.

Impact of severe acute kidney injury and chronic kidney disease on allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplant recipients: a retrospective single center analysis. Bone Marrow Transplant 2020; 55:1264-1271. [PMID: 32103146 DOI: 10.1038/s41409-020-0843-3] [Citation(s) in RCA: 19] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/23/2019] [Revised: 02/11/2020] [Accepted: 02/14/2020] [Indexed: 01/04/2023]
Abstract
Acute kidney injury (AKI) increases early mortality in allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplant (allo-HCT) recipients and may accelerate chronic kidney disease (CKD) development. We analyzed prospective variables related to AKI and CKD in 422 allo-HCT recipients to establish risk factors of severe acute renal failure and CKD. Renal function and creatinine were periodically assessed from baseline till the last follow-up. Sixty-three patients (14%) developed severe AKI (AKI-3) at 100 days post transplant and 15% at 12 months. Variables associated with AKI-3 were age above 55 years [hazard ratio (HR): 2.4; p = 0.019], total body irradiation (TBI) (HR: 1.8; p = 0.044), high-risk cytomegalovirus reactivation (HR: 1.8; p = 0.041), and methotrexate as GVHD prophylaxis (HR: 2.1; p = 0.024). AKI-3 increased the mortality risk (HR: 2.5, 95% confidence interval: 1.9-3.4). The CKD prevalence in 161 living patients was 10.2% at the last follow-up and in most, CKD developed 1 year post HCT, independent of AKI. The CKD at 1 year post HCT was associated with increased mortality (HR: 3.54; p < 0.001). Interestingly, pretransplant CKD was associated with early mortality (HR: 5.6; p < 0.001). In fact, pre- and posttransplant CKD had independent unfavorable long-term outcomes. These pretransplant factors can potentially be targeted to improve allo-HCT outcomes.

Abstract
Acute kidney injury (AKI) after hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) is associated with high mortality rates. To determine the incidence and risk factors associated with AKI in patients undergoing HSCT during the infusion period, patients admitted for HSCT from 2012 to 2015 were studied. AKI was classified according to the KDIGO (Kidney Disease Improving Global Outcomes) criteria. We analyzed the main comorbidities, underlying conditions, types of transplant, preparative regimens, and use of potentially nephrotoxic drugs as risk factors for AKI. Among the 180 patients (median age 53 years), 69 (36.5%) developed AKI (23 KDIGO 1, 28 KDIGO 2, and 18 KDIGO 3), 49 (50.0%) undergoing allogeneic and 20 (22.3%) autologous transplantation, and 18 (9.4%) required dialysis. The main comorbidities were hypertension (38; 19.8%), and diabetes (19; 9.9%). The median pre-transplant creatinine was 0.7 mg/dl. Twenty-one patients died (10.9%). The risk factors for AKI in allogeneic HSCT were as follows: baseline estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) (RR 1.12 (1.02-1.22), p = 0.019), use of vasopressors (RR 3.72 (2.20-6.29), p < 0.001), and use of methotrexate (RR 1.83 (1.08-3.11), p = 0.025). Male gender (RR 5.91 (1.65-21.16), p = 0.006), baseline eGFR (RR 1.22 (1.04-1.43), p = 0.011), and use of aminoglycosides (RR 3.92 (1.06-14.44), p = 0.041) were the risk factors for AKI associated with autologous HSCT. During hospitalization for HSCT, AKI was a common problem. The use of a low dose of methotrexate to prevent graft versus host disease was associated with its occurrence.

Abstract
Hematopoietic stem cell transplantation is a life-saving therapy for many patients with cancer, as well as patients with some nonmalignant hematologic disorders, such as aplastic anemia, sickle cell disease, and certain congenital immune deficiencies. Kidney injury directly associated with stem cell transplantation includes a wide range of structural and functional abnormalities, which may be vascular (hypertension, thrombotic microangiopathy), glomerular (albuminuria, nephrotic glomerulopathies), and/or tubulointerstitial. AKI occurs commonly after stem cell transplant, affecting 10%-73% of patients. The cause is often multifactorial and can include sepsis, nephrotoxic medications, marrow infusion syndrome, hepatic sinusoidal obstruction syndrome, thrombotic microangiopathy, infections, and graft versus host disease. The risk of post-transplant kidney injury varies depending on patient characteristics, type of transplant (allogeneic versus autologous), and choice of chemotherapeutic conditioning regimen (myeloablative versus nonmyeloablative). Importantly, AKI is associated with substantial morbidity, including the need for KRT in approximately 5% of patients and the development of CKD in up to 60% of transplant recipients. AKI has been associated universally with higher all-cause and nonrelapse mortality regardless of transplant type, and studies have consistently shown extremely high (>80%) mortality rates in those patients requiring acute dialysis. Accordingly, prevention, early recognition, and prompt treatment of kidney injury are essential to improving kidney and patient outcomes after hematopoietic stem cell transplantation, and for realizing the full potential of this therapy.

Abstract
Myeloablative conditioning regimens with significant extramedullary toxicity result in high rates of renal dysfunction including acute kidney injury (AKI). Here we examine the incidence and impact of a reduced creatinine clearance (below 60 ml/min) before day 90 (early renal dysfunction, ERD) in patients receiving the reduced toxicity fludarabine/i.v. busulfan (FluBu4) regimen prior to allogeneic transplant. Of 91 patients receiving FluBu4, 62 (68%) developed ERD. ERD resulted in worse overall survival (OS, 2.2 years versus median not reached, p = 0.04) and progression-free survival (PFS, 1.6 years versus median not reached, p = 0.02). This was due to a higher relapse rate (34% versus 14%, p = 0.03) in the ERD group. In time-dependent Cox proportional hazards models adjusted for age, ERD was associated with worse OS (hazard ratio [HR] 2.67, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.06-4.21, p = 0.043) and PFS (HR 2.52, 95% CI 1.17-4.28, p = 0.030). Patients with ERD surviving 1 year had an increased risk of chronic kidney disease (CKD, OR 10; 95% CI 1.4-112.6, p = 0.0181), which was associated with worse survival (3.2 years versus median not reached, p = 0.002). ERD after FluBu4 is therefore a poor prognostic sign resulting in increased relapse, worse OS, and high risk of CKD at 1 year.

Abstract
Hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) is an increasingly used treatment for hematologic malignancies as well as for nonmalignant diseases. Kidney impairment remains an important early and late post-transplantation complication. Although numerous histopathological changes have been reported, the pathophysiology remains incompletely understood. Furthermore, correlations between clinical findings and morphological changes have not been well studied. Between 2000 and 2016, 17 recipients of allogeneic (n = 12) or autologous (n = 5) HCT underwent kidney biopsy for either proteinuria or deterioration of kidney function at our center. The most common biopsy findings were therapy-related changes with thrombotic microangiopathy (n = 5), calcineurin inhibitor toxicity (n = 4), and membranous glomerulonephritis (n = 3), representing the majority of cases in this category. In addition, kidney findings from 137 autopsies performed between 1995 and March 2017 were analyzed. The most common changes were acute kidney injury (n = 55), most likely due to the patients' premortal deteriorated state, and thrombotic microangiopathy (n = 14). Several cases demonstrated involvement by either infectious agents (n = 6) or tumors (n = 9). Distinct kidney diseases, such as glomerulonephritis, were rare (3% of cases). Uncommon and yet rarely described diagnoses for this patient cohort were IgG4-related tubulointerstitial nephritis and fibrillary nephritis. This study provides a comprehensive overview of the histomorphological findings in kidney biopsy specimens from HCT recipients. Along with treatment-related complications, one putative correlate of chronic GVHD of the kidney could be documented: membranous glomerulonephritis. In contrast, no morphological correlate of acute GVHD of the kidney was identified. Findings at the time of autopsy varied greatly, spanning a wider range than those of indication biopsies.

Abstract
Most hematological malignancies occur in older patients. Until recently these patients and those with comorbidities were not candidates for treatment with allogeneic hematopoietic transplantation because they were unable to tolerate the heretofore used high-dose conditioning regimens. The finding that many of the cures achieved with allogeneic hematopoietic transplantation were due to graft-versus-tumor effects led to the development of less toxic and well-tolerated reduced intensity and nonmyeloablative regimens. These regimens enabled allogeneic engraftment, thereby setting the stage for graft-versus-tumor effects. This review summarizes the encouraging early results seen with the new regimens and discusses the two hurdles that need to be overcome for achieving even greater success, disease relapse and graft-versus-host disease.

Abstract
Acute kidney injury and long-term renal dysfunction are common problems following bone morrow transplantation (BMT) and highly related to mortality. The frequency and risk of renal dysfunction are directly related to the method of BMT, with myeloablative allogeneic BMT being associated to the highest risk followed by non-myeloablative allogeneic and myeloablative autologous BMT. The type of BMT is, thus, more important than co-factors such as advanced age, comorbidities, or high baseline serum creatinine. The causes for renal failure are multiple and include chemotherapy and high-dose radiation with fluid loss by diarrhea or vomiting, sepsis or nephrotoxic drugs such as calcineurin inhibitors and antimicrobials. Additionally, there are BMT-specific reasons for renal dysfunction including marrow infusion toxicity, hepatic veno-occlusive disease, thrombotic microangiopathy (TMA) and graft versus host disease (GvHD). Once the kidney has been damaged, the therapy depends on the underlying disease. Particularly in cases of TMA and GvHD, immunosuppressive therapy is essential. In TMA, plasma exchange therapy or eculizumab should be additionally considered if the complement system is affected. Hence, patients with these causes should preferably be referred to tertiary centers to allow early diagnosis and appropriate treatment.

Abstract
Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a well-documented complication of pediatric hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT). Dialysis after HSCT is associated with a lower overall survival (OS); however, the association between less severe AKI and OS is unclear. We retrospectively studied 205 consecutive pediatric HSCT patients to determine the incidence and impact of all stages of AKI on OS in pediatric HSCT recipients. We used the peak pRIFLE grade during the first 100 days to classify AKI (ie, R = risk, I = injury, F = failure, L = loss of function, E = end-stage renal disease) and used the modified Schwartz formula to estimate glomerular filtration rate. AKI was observed in 173 of 205 patients (84%). The 1-year OS rate decreased significantly with an increasing severity of pRIFLE grades (P < .01). There was no difference in the OS between patients without AKI and the R/I group. Regardless of the dialysis status, stages F/L/E had significantly lower rates of OS compared with patients without AKI or R/I (P < .01). There was no difference in OS among patients with dialysis and F/L/E without dialysis (P = .65). Stages F/L/E predicted mortality independent of acute graft-versus-host disease, gender, and malignancy. The OS of children after HSCT decreases significantly with an increasing severity of AKI within the first 100 days post-transplant. Although our data did not show an increased risk of mortality with stages R/I, stages F/L/E predicted mortality regardless of dialysis. Prevention and minimization of AKI may improve survival after pediatric HSCT.

Abstract
The process of allogeneic HSCT in children is associated with frequent AKI and mortality, but the epidemiology is not widely reported. The aim of this review was to summarize the available evidence on incidence, risk factors, timing, and prognosis of AKI in children following HSCT. We systematically reviewed all observational studies reporting incidence and outcomes of AKI in pediatric allogenic HSCT recipients. The minimum criteria for AKI were defined as an increase in sCr ≥ x1.5 or urine output ≤0.5 mL/kg/min over six h. Medline and Embase were searched until March 2014. From 993 electronic records, five were eligible for inclusion (n = 571 patients). The average incidence of AKI within the first 100 days following HSCT was 21.7% (range 11-42%), and the average time of onset was 4-6 wk post-transplant. Risk factors for AKI included cyclosporine toxicity, amphotericin B and foscarnet, SOS, and having a mismatched donor. There were conflicting reports on whether AKI was associated with the development of CKD. AKI is a common and potentially life-threatening complication following HSCT in children. Further quality observational studies are needed to accurately determine the epidemiology and prognosis of AKI in this population.

Abstract
AML is currently the most common indication for reduced-intensity conditioned (RIC) allo-SCT. Reduced-intensity regimens allow a potent GVL response to occur with minimized treatment-related toxicity in patients of older age or with comorbidities that preclude the use of myeloablative conditioning. Whether RIC SCT is appropriate for younger and more standard risk patients is not well defined and the field is changing rapidly; a prospective randomized trial of myeloablative vs RIC (BMT-CTN 0901) was recently closed when early results indicated better outcomes for myeloablative regimens. However, detailed results are not available, and all patients in that study were eligible for myeloablative conditioning. RIC transplants will likely remain the standard of care as many patients with AML are not eligible for myeloablative conditioning. Recent publication of mature results from retrospective and prospective cohorts provide contemporary efficacy and toxicity data for these attenuated regimens. In addition, recent studies explore the use of alternative donors, introduce regimens that attempt to reduce toxicity without reducing intensity, and identify predictive factors that pave the way to personalized approaches. These studies paint a picture of the future of RIC transplants. Here we review the current status of RIC allogeneic SCT in AML.

Abstract
Allogeneic hematopoietic cell or bone marrow transplantation (BMT) causes graft-versus-host-disease (GVHD). However, the involvement of the kidney in acute GVHD is not well-understood. Acute GVHD was induced in Lewis rats (RT1l) by transplantation of Dark Agouti (DA) rat (RT1(a)) bone marrow cells (6.0 × 10(7) cells) without immunosuppression after lethal irradiation (10 Gy). We examined the impact of acute GVHD on the kidney in allogeneic BMT rats and compared them with those in Lewis-to-Lewis syngeneic BMT control and non-BMT control rats. In syngeneic BMT and non-BMT control rats, acute GVHD did not develop by day 28. In allogeneic BMT rats, severe acute GVHD developed at 21-28 days after BMT in the skin, intestine, and liver with decreased body weight (>20%), skin rush, diarrhea, and liver dysfunction. In the kidney, infiltration of donor-type leukocytes was by day 28. Mild inflammation characterized by infiltration of CD3(+) T-cells, including CD8(+) T-cells and CD4(+) T-cells, and CD68(+) macrophages to the interstitium around the small arteries was noted. During moderate to severe inflammation, these infiltrating cells expanded into the peritubular interstitium with peritubular capillaritis, tubulitis, acute glomerulitis, and endarteritis. Renal dysfunction also developed, and the serum blood urea nitrogen (33.9 ± 4.7 mg/dL) and urinary N-acetyl-β-D-glucosaminidase (NAG: 31.5 ± 15.5 U/L) levels increased. No immunoglobulin and complement deposition was detected in the kidney. In conclusion, the kidney was a primary target organ of acute GVHD after BMT. Acute GVHD of the kidney was characterized by increased levels of urinary NAG and cell-mediated injury to the renal microvasculature and renal tubules.

Abstract
Cyclosporine, a drug used in immunosuppression protocols for hematopoietic stem cell transplantation that has a narrow therapeutic index, may cause various adverse reactions, including nephrotoxicity. This has a direct clinical impact on the patient. This study aims to summarize available evidence in the scientific literature on the use of cyclosporine in respect to its risk factor for the development of nephrotoxicity in patients submitted to hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. A systematic review was made with the following electronic databases: PubMed, Web of Science, Embase, Scopus, CINAHL, LILACS, SciELO and Cochrane BVS. The keywords used were: “bone marrow transplantation” OR “stem cell transplantation” OR “grafting, bone marrow” AND cyclosporine OR cyclosporin OR “risk factors” AND “acute kidney injury” OR “acute kidney injuries” OR “acute renal failure” OR “acute renal failures” OR “nephrotoxicity”. The level of scientific evidence of the studies was classified according to the Oxford Centre for Evidence Based Medicine. The final sample was composed of 19 studies, most of which (89.5%) had an observational design, evidence level 2B and pointed to an incidence of nephrotoxicity above 30%. The available evidence, considered as good quality and appropriate for the analyzed event, indicates that cyclosporine represents a risk factor for the occurrence of nephrotoxicity, particularly when combined with amphotericin B or aminoglycosides, agents commonly used in hematopoietic stem cell transplantation recipients.

Abstract
Abstract Reconstitution, engraftment kinetics and tumor cell clearance were analyzed after reduced intensity conditioning hematopoietic cell transplant (RIC-HCT) in patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL). Patients were transplanted from unrelated (n = 40) or related (n = 10) donors after fludarabine and 2 Gy total body irradiation followed by cyclosporine and mycophenolate mofetil. The vast majority of patients (96%) engrafted with absolute neutrophil count (ANC) > 0.5 × 10(9)/L at day + 22. CLL cells decreased (median 2%, range 0-69%) within 28 days, but disappeared by day + 180 after HCT. Donor T-cell chimerism increased to > 95% at day 56 and donor B-cell chimerism to 94% at day + 360. Overall survival was 51 ± 8%, incidence of progression 37 ± 7% and non-relapse related mortality (NRM) 30 ± 7% at 4 years. The most common causes of NRM were graft-versus-host disease (GvHD) (14%) and sepsis (6%). Disease status at HCT was significantly associated with early B-cell reconstitution (p = 0.04) and with increased risk of relapse/progression in univariate and multivariate analysis (p = 0.022). Tumor cells were undetectable by day + 180, although B-cell reconstitution did not occur until 1.5 years after RIC-HCT. The best predictors for progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) were complete response (CR) or first partial response (PR1) and the absence of bulky disease at transplant, respectively.

Abstract
Antimicrobial treatment is often indicated to neutropenic patients. Although renal failure is a common complication of many antibiotics, no information could be found in the literature defining which are the best screening criteria for detecting renal injury. In this paper, the authors aim to assess the progress to renal failure in neutropenic patients on antimicrobial use and to compare different diagnostic criteria of renal failure in association to antimicrobial agents used. This is a cohort study conducted from February to August 2006 at the Hospital das Clínicas of the Universidade Federal de Minas Gerais, which included patients with neutropenia and antimicrobial therapy for the treatment of Healthcare Associated Infections notified by the Hospital Infection Control Committee. Renal injury has ensued in 25% of patients and no statistical difference between distinct criteria for renal injury was observed. Association of greater number of antimicrobials was associated with renal impairment. Time required for renal injury was independent of the antimicrobial regimen used, but mortality among patients with renal injury was higher when compared to those who had preserved renal function.

Abstract
A 48-year-old Japanese woman, who had been diagnosed with smoldering adult T-cell leukemia, was admitted to our hospital for hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) because of an acute exacerbation of her disease. After myeloablative conditioning procedures, comprising cytarabine with cyclophosphamide and total body irradiation, the HLA-matched unrelated bone marrow stem cells were infused (day 0). Her serum creatinine concentration, having been 0.6 mg/dL at baseline, began to increase from day 1 and was 2.3 mg/L on day 7. Hemodialysis was required to treat fluid overload and worsening uremia on days 8 and 9. On day 10, she presented with refractory hypotension and died due to multi-organ failure on day 12. Renal pathology at autopsy showed no specific histological changes to which her clinically severe acute kidney injury (AKI) was attributable. This case suggests that post-HSCT AKI is not necessarily accompanied by apparent renal histologic damage, even if it is clinically serious.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a common medical complication after myeloablative allogeneic stem cell transplantation (SCT). We have previously performed a retrospective analysis of AKI after cord blood transplantation (CBT) in adults, and found that the maximum of vancomycin (VCM) trough levels were significantly higher in patients with AKI. Following these results, we have monitored VCM serum trough concentrations more strictly, to not exceed 10.0 mg/L, since 2008. METHODS In this report, we performed an analysis of AKI in a new group of 38 adult patients with hematological malignancies treated with unrelated CBT after myeloablative conditioning between January 2008 and July 2011. RESULTS Cumulative incidence of AKI at day 100 after CBT was 34% (95% confidence interval 19-50). The median of the maximum value of VCM trough was 8.8 (4.5-12.2) mg/L. In multivariate analysis, no factor was associated with the incidence of AKI. No transplant-related mortality was observed. The probability of disease-free survival at 2 years was 83%. CONCLUSION These findings suggest that strict monitoring of VCM serum trough concentrations has a beneficial effect on outcomes of CBT.

Abstract
Allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation combines the power of cytotoxic chemo/radiotherapy with the ability of the new immune system to seek out and destroy tumor cells. However, administration of such myeloablative transplants is fraught with risks, some of which are related to the intensive conditioning regimens. Reductions in the intensity of the administered cytotoxic therapy have demonstrated that under some circumstances, the burden of fighting tumor and enhancing stem cell engraftment can be shouldered mostly by the transplanted immune system. Reduced intensity has allowed a potentially curative therapy for hematologic malignancies to be offered to an expanded patient population. Ongoing research seeks to enhance the safety and power of this form of allogeneic immunotherapy.

Abstract
AKI is common in patients with cancer, and it causes interruptions in therapy and increased hospital length of stay, cost, and mortality. Although cancer patients are susceptible to all of the usual causes of AKI in patients without cancer, there are a number of AKI syndromes that occur more frequently or are unique to this patient population. AKI also confers substantially increased risk of short-term death, and the ability to reverse AKI portends a better outcome in some cancers, such as multiple myeloma. Several trends in oncology, including increased survival, better supportive care, older patients who have received multiple chemotherapy regimens, and new therapeutic options, are driving an increase in the numbers of cancer patients who develop AKI. As a result, nephrologists should be increasingly familiar with the diagnosis, management, and treatment of AKI in this setting. Here, we summarize recent data on epidemiology of AKI in cancer patients, describe the most common AKI syndromes in this population, and highlight emerging areas in the growing field of onconephrology.

Abstract
Infections are one of the most common complications in patients diagnosed with leukemia and serve as a major obstacle to treatment. Through the early 1970s, infections were the most common cause of death in patients diagnosed with acute leukemia, but improvement in treatment and supportive care over the past few decades, coupled with expanded prophylaxis and prevention regimens, have led to reduction in both the frequency and severity of infections. Regardless, due in part to an aging cancer population and the diversity of cancer treatments and procedures, infectious diseases remain a major cause of morbidity and mortality in patients with leukemia.

Abstract
Acute Kidney Injury (AKI) is a common complication in patients with cancer and even though there are many causes of renal failure in this population the classical classification of prerenal, renal, and postrenal is useful as a diagnostic guide. Important risk factors for AKI are dehydration, use of nephrotoxic drugs, preexisting renal impairment and large tumor burden. The development of AKI is associated with poor prognosis but early recognition and treatment initiation are associated with better outcomes in this population.

Abstract
Hematopoietic cell transplantation is becoming an increasingly common treatment modality for a variety of diseases. However, patient survival may be limited by substantial treatment-related toxicities, including acute kidney injury (AKI). AKI can develop in approximately 70% of patients posttransplant and is associated with an increased risk of morbidity and mortality. The development of AKI varies depending on the type of conditioning regimen used and the donor cells infused at the time of transplant, and the etiology often is multifactorial. Epidemiology, risk factors for development, pathogenesis, and potential treatment options for AKI in the hematopoietic cell transplantation population are reviewed as well as newer data on early markers of renal injury. As the indications for and number of transplants performed each year increases, nephrologists and oncologists will have to work together to identify patients who are at risk for AKI to both prevent its development and initiate therapy early to improve outcomes.

Abstract
AIM Acute renal failure (ARF) after hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) is a widespread complication leading to considerable morbidity and mortality. The present study aims to determine the incidence and risk factors of ARF and to investigate whether there exists a relationship between the renal injury indicators and quantity of the transplanted stem cells in a uniform patient population after allogeneic myeloablative HSCT. METHODS Patients undergoing myeloablative allogeneic HSCT from 2007 to 2008 were monitored prospectively in terms of their renal functions during the first 100 days after transplantation. ARF was defined as a twofold rise in serum creatinine concentration of baseline value or a >50% decrease in creatinine clearance and classified into three grades. RESULTS ARF occurred in 51.3% of patients over a period of 100 days after HSCT. ARF developed in 12 (60.0%) patients within the first 2 weeks, whereas in 8 (40.0%) of them ARF development was observed within 2-4 weeks. No correlation was found between ARF development and the quantity of the infused hematopoietic stem cells. Additionally, we were not able to identify a particular cause which was significantly associated with the occurrence of ARF after HSCT. CONCLUSION A 51.3% incidence of ARF was found in patients after myeloablative allogeneic HSCT. ARF in HSCT patients could not be linked to a single cause. Rather a combination of multiple risk factors seems to be responsible for ARF development.

Moderate renal function impairment does not affect outcomes of reduced-intensity conditioning with fludarabine and melphalan for allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. Biol Blood Marrow Transplant 2009; 15:1094-9.

Abstract
Nonrelapse mortality (NRM) after reduced-intensity allogeneic transplants is likely to be influenced by abnormalities in renal function. We studied 141 patients diagnosed with acute myelogenous leukemia (AML) (n = 131) or high-risk myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) (n = 10) who underwent allogeneic transplantation with fludarabine (Flu)/melphalan (Mel)-based regimens and hypothesized that moderate to mild renal function impairment increases NRM in this setting. Flu dose consisted of 25-30 mg/m(2) for 4 days and Mel dose was 100-180 mg/m(2). Donors were HLA-compatible siblings (n = 69) and matched unrelated donors (n = 72). Disease status at transplantation was complete remission (n = 56, 40%) or active disease (n = 85, 60%). The influence of the estimated glomerular filtration rate (GFR) measured before transplantation on outcomes was analyzed. GFR was estimated by both the Cockcroft-Gault (CG) and the modified diet in renal disease (MDRD) equations, using the creatinine value obtained prior to starting chemotherapy. Evaluated outcomes were overall survival (OS), NRM, and treatment-related mortality (TRM) at day 100 and 1-year posttransplantation. Median age was 55 years (range: 21-74 years); 59% of the patients were male. Estimated GFR by CG was > or =90 for 45 (32%), 60-89 for 78 (55%), and <60 for 18 (13%) patients. When estimated by MDRD, GFR was > or =90 for 65 (46%), 60-89 from 66 (47%), and <60 for 10 (7%) patients. The majority of patients by both estimations had a GFR between 60 and 89 (n = 78 by CG and n = 66 by MDRD) with no difference in the evaluated outcomes between this group and the subgroup of patients with a GFR <60 (P > .05). There were no differences in OS and NRM at day 100 and 1-year posttransplantation in the 3 groups by any GFR estimation method. In conclusion, a mild to moderate decrease in GFR was not associated with an increase in NRM.
