Abstract
Drug-associated kidney injury is related to longer hospitalization and increased risk of chronic kidney disease and mortality. However, there is currently a lack of large population studies on drug-associated kidney injury in children. This study aimed to study perform data mining to generate hypotheses on drugs, which may deserve to be assessed as per their potential risk of increasing kidney injury in children. We extracted and analyzed reports on drugs associated with kidney injury in children in the FDA Adverse Event Reporting System (FAERS). We conducted a disproportionality analysis using proportional reporting ratio (PRR) to evaluate the association between drugs and kidney injury in children. Meanwhile, comparisons were performed with drug labels to identify drugs that, despite not having kidney injury currently mentioned in their labels, may potentially be associated with risks of kidney injury in children. A total of 6347 children had drug-associated kidney injury in the FAERS database. The top five drugs with the highest PRR were gentamicin (PRR = 12.28, N = 157 cases, Chi-Squared = 1602.77), piperacillin-tazobactam (PRR = 9.77, N = 129 cases, Chi-Squared = 1003.24), amlodipine (PRR = 8.98, N = 271 cases, Chi-Squared = 1861.46), vancomycin (PRR = 8.91, N = 295 cases, Chi-Squared = 1998.64), and ceftriaxone (PRR = 8.00, N = 251 cases, Chi-Squared = 1494.02). According to drug labels, 9 drugs (9/30) were classified as potential nephrotoxins. CONCLUSIONS Approximately one-third of drugs associated with kidney injury in children do not list kidney injury as a side effect in their drug labels. Future studies are therefore warranted to evaluate whether these drugs are associated with such a risk. WHAT IS KNOWN • Nephrotoxic drugs are an increasingly common cause of acute kidney injury in hospitalized children. • Currently, no study has systematically combed drugs associated with kidney injury in children. WHAT IS NEW • Approximately a third of drugs showing signals for potential kidney injury in children in data mining do not mention this side effect in their drug labels. • This study provides data on drugs needing further study to determine whether they might increase the risk of kidney injury in children.

Abstract
Context: Amlodipine is the most common calcium channel blocker (CCB) on the Swedish market, and poison center (PC) consultations for amlodipine overdoses are increasing. The clinical picture is dominated by vasodilation with relative preservation of cardiac function. CCBs selectively dilate vessels on the afferent side of the capillary network which, in states of preserved or increased blood flow may lead to edema formation, including non-cardiogenic pulmonary edema (NCPE). This complication has been considered rare in CCB poisoning. In this cohort study of nineteen amlodipine poisonings with high amlodipine blood levels, the incidence and clinical significance of NCPE in severe amlodipine poisoning are explored.Methods: During 2017-2018 the Swedish PC prospectively encouraged the gathering of blood samples in amlodipine poisonings with symptoms requiring treatment with inotropes or vasopressors. Samples were sent by mail to the Forensic Toxicology Division at the Swedish National Board of Forensic Medicine for screening and quantification of relevant toxicants. Patients with blood amlodipine levels >0.25 µg/mL were included in a cohort whose case details were gathered from medical records and PC-case notes with a special focus on signs of NCPE.Results: Nineteen patients met the blood amlodipine inclusion criteria. Four (21%) died and one patient was treated with VA-ECMO. Nine patients developed NCPE defined as a need for positive pressure ventilation (PPV) while having an echocardiographically normal left ventricular function.Conclusion: In this prospective cohort study of consecutive and analytically confirmed significant amlodipine poisonings NCPE was a common finding occurring in 47% of the whole cohort and in 64% of patients who did not go on to develop complete hemodynamic collapse.
