Neurophysiological control of urinary bladder storage and voiding—functional changes through development and pathology

Youko Ikeda 

doi : 10.1007/s00467-020-04594-4

Pediatric Nephrology volume 36, pages1041–1052(2021)

The effective storage of urine and its expulsion relies upon the coordinated activity of parasympathetic, sympathetic, and somatic innervations to the lower urinary tract (LUT). At birth, all mammalian neonates lack the ability to voluntary regulate bladder storage or voiding. The ability to control urinary bladder activity is established as connections to the central nervous system (CNS) form through development. The neural regulation of the LUT has been predominantly investigated in adult animal models where comparatively less is known about the neonatal and postnatal neurophysiological development that facilitate urinary continence. Furthermore, congenital neurological or anatomical defects can adversely affect both storage and voiding functions through postnatal development and into adulthood, leading to secondary conditions including vesicoureteral reflux, chronic urinary tract infections, and end-stage renal disease. Therefore, the aim of the review is to provide the current knowledge available on neurophysiological regulation of the LUT through pre- to postnatal development of human and animal models and the consequences of congenital anomalies that can affect LUT neural function.

Targeting optimal PD management in children: what have we learned from the IPPN registry?

Dagmara Borzych-Du?a?ka, Franz Schaefer & Bradley A. Warady

doi : 10.1007/s00467-020-04598-0

Pediatric Nephrology volume 36, pages1053–1063(2021)

National and international registries have great potential for providing data that describe disease burden, treatments, and outcomes especially in rare diseases. In the setting of pediatric end-stage renal disease (ESRD), the available data are limited to highly developed countries, whereas the lack of data from emerging economies blurs the global perspective. In order to improve the pediatric dialysis care worldwide, provide global benchmarking of pediatric dialysis outcome, and assign useful tools and management algorithms based on evidence-based medicine, the International Pediatric Peritoneal Dialysis Network (IPPN) was established in 2007. In recent years, the Registry has provided comprehensive data on relevant clinical issues in pediatric peritoneal dialysis patients including nutritional status, growth, cardiovascular disease, anemia management, mineral and bone disorders, preservation of residual kidney function, access-related complications, and impact of associated comorbidities. A unique feature of the registry is the ability to compare practices and outcomes between countries and world regions. In the current review, we describe study design and collection methods, summarize the core IPPN findings based on its 12-year experience and 13 publications, and discuss the future perspective.

Fucose as a new therapeutic target in renal transplantation

Mark C Howard, Christopher L Nauser, Daniela A Vizitiu & Steven H Sacks

doi : 10.1007/s00467-020-04588-2

Pediatric Nephrology volume 36, pages1065–1073(2021)

Ischaemia/reperfusion injury (IRI) is an inevitable and damaging consequence of the process of kidney transplantation, ultimately leading to delayed graft function and increased risk of graft loss. A key driver of this adverse reaction in kidneys is activation of the complement system, an important part of the innate immune system. This activation causes deposition of complement C3 on renal tubules as well as infiltration of immune cells and ultimately damage to the tubules resulting in reduced kidney function. Collectin-11 (CL-11) is a pattern recognition molecule of the lectin pathway of complement. CL-11 binds to a ligand that is exposed on the renal tubules by the stress caused by IRI, and through attached proteases, CL-11 activates complement and this contributes to the consequences outlined above. Recent work in our lab has shown that this damage-associated ligand contains a fucose residue that aids CL-11 binding and promotes complement activation. In this review, we will discuss the clinical context of renal transplantation, the relevance of the complement system in IRI, and outline the evidence for the role of CL-11 binding to a fucosylated ligand in IRI as well as its downstream effects. Finally, we will detail the simple but elegant theory that increasing the level of free fucose in the kidney acts as a decoy molecule, greatly reducing the clinical consequences of IRI mediated by CL-11.

The application of omic technologies to research in sepsis-associated acute kidney injury

Denise Hasson, Stuart L. Goldstein & Stephen W. Standage

doi : 10.1007/s00467-020-04557-9

Pediatric Nephrology volume 36, pages1075–1086(2021)

Acute kidney injury (AKI) is common in critically ill children and adults, and sepsis-associated AKI (SA-AKI) is the most frequent cause of AKI in the ICU. To date, no mechanistically targeted therapeutic interventions have been identified. High-throughput “omic” technologies (e.g., genomics, proteomics, metabolomics, etc.) offer a new angle of approach to achieve this end. In this review, we provide an update on the current understanding of SA-AKI pathophysiology. Omic technologies themselves are briefly discussed to facilitate interpretation of studies using them. We next summarize the body of SA-AKI research to date that has employed omic technologies. Importantly, omic studies are helping to elucidate a pathophysiology of SA-AKI centered around cellular stress responses, metabolic changes, and dysregulation of energy production that underlie its clinical features. Finally, we propose opportunities for future research using clinically relevant animal models, integrating multiple omic technologies and ultimately progressing to translational human studies focusing therapeutic strategies on targeted disease mechanisms.

Racial differences of early vascular aging in children and adolescents

Ruan Kruger, Lebo Francina Gafane-Matemane & Juliana Kagura

doi : 10.1007/s00467-020-04593-5

Pediatric Nephrology volume 36, pages1087–1108(2021)

The prevalence of non-communicable disease (NCDs) is rising globally, with a large burden recorded in sub-Saharan countries and populations of black race/ethnicity. Accelerated vascular deterioration, otherwise known as early vascular aging (EVA), is the underlying factor for highly prevalent NCDs such as hypertension. The etiology of EVA is multifactorial with a central component being arterial stiffness with subsequent development of hypertension and cardiovascular complications. Although arterial stiffness develops with increasing age, many children and adolescents are subjected to the premature development of arterial stiffness, due to genetic or epigenetic predispositions, lifestyle and behavioral risk factors, and early life programming. Race/ethnic differences in pediatric populations have also been reported with higher aortic stiffness in black (African American) compared with age-matched white (European American) counterparts independent of blood pressure, body mass index, or socioeconomic status. With known evidence of race/ethnic differences in EVA, the pathophysiological mechanisms underlying graded differences in the programming of EVA are still sparse and rarely explored. This educational review aims to address the early life determinants of EVA in children and adolescents with a particular focus on racial or ethnic differences.

Kidney replacement therapy in pediatric patients on mechanical circulatory support: challenges for the pediatric nephrologist

Alexandra Idrovo, Natasha Afonso, Jack Price, Sebastian Tume & Ayse Akcan-Arikan

doi : 10.1007/s00467-020-04605-4

Pediatric Nephrology volume 36, pages1109–1117(2021)

The use of mechanical circulatory support (MCS) therapies in children with medically refractory cardiac failure has increased over the past two decades. With the growing experience and expertise, MCS is currently offered as a bridge to recovery or heart transplantation and in some cases even as destination therapy. Acute kidney injury (AKI) is common in patients with end-stage heart failure (ESHF). When severe AKI develops requiring kidney replacement therapy (KRT), these patients present unique challenges for the pediatric nephrology team. The use of KRT has not been adequately described in children with ESHF on the newer MCS. We also present original case series data from our center experience. The purpose of this review is to familiarize the reader with the current MCS technologies, approach to their selection, how they interact when combined with current KRT circuits, and distinguish similarities and differences. We will attempt to highlight the distinctive features of each technology, specifically focusing on growing trends in use of continuous-flow ventricular assist devices (CF-VAD) as it poses additional challenges to the pediatric nephrologist.

Extracorporeal renal and liver support in pediatric acute liver failure

Bogdana Sabina Zoica & Akash Deep

doi : 10.1007/s00467-020-04613-4

Pediatric Nephrology volume 36, pages1119–1128(2021)

The liver is the only organ which can regenerate and, thus, potentially negate the need for transplantation in acute liver failure (ALF). Cerebral edema and sepsis are leading causes of mortality in ALF. Both water-soluble and protein-bound toxins have been implicated in pathogenesis of various ALF complications. Ammonia is a surrogate marker of water-soluble toxin accumulation in ALF and high levels are associated with higher grades of hepatic encephalopathy, raised intracranial pressure, and mortality. Therefore, extracorporeal therapies aim to lower ammonia and maintain fluid balance and cytokine homeostasis. The most common and easily available modality is continuous kidney replacement therapy (CKRT). Early initiation of high-volume CKRT utilizing an anticoagulation regimen minimizing treatment downtime and delivering the prescribed dose is highly desirable. Ideally, extracorporeal liver-assist devices (ECLAD) should perform both synthetic and detoxification functions of the liver. ECLAD may temporarily replace lost liver function and serve as a bridge, either to spontaneous recovery or liver transplantation. Various bioartificial and biologic liver-assist devices are described in specialty literature, including molecular adsorbent recirculating system (MARS), single pass albumin dialysis (SPAD), and total plasma exchange (TPE); however, clinicians commonly use modalities easily available in intensive care units. There is a lack of standardization of indications for ECLAD, availability of different extracorporeal devices with varied technical approaches, and, of note, the differences in doses of ECLAD provided in clinical practice. We review the practicalities and evidence regarding these four artificial liver support devices in pediatric ALF.

Steroid-sensitive nephrotic syndrome (SSNS) is, in most patients, a chronic disease with 80% experiencing at least one relapse after first flare. B cell depletion using rituximab is effective in preventing relapse in steroid-dependent (SDNS) patients but fails to maintain long-term remission following B cell recovery, possibly due to development of autoreactive long-lived plasma cells. We investigated sequential combination of antiCD20 antibody targeting all B cell subsets, and antiCD38 antibody with high plasma cell cytotoxicity in patients with uncontrolled SDNS after failure of one or several attempts at B cell depletion.
