Abstract Background: Acute kidney injury (AKI) biomarkers are often susceptible to confounding factors, limiting their utility as a specific biomarker, in the prediction of AKI, especially in heterogeneous population. The urinary CXC motif chemokine 10 (uCXCL10), as an inflammatory mediator, has been proposed to be a biomarker for AKI in a specific setting. Whether uCXCL10 is associated with AKI and predicts AKI in critically ill patients remains unclear. The aims of the study were to investigate clinical variables potentially associated with uCXCL10 levels and determine the associations of uCXCL10 with AKI, sepsis and PICU mortality in critically ill children, as well as its predictive values of aforementioned issues. Methods: Urinary CXCL10 levels were serially measured in a heterogeneous group of children during the first week after pediatric intensive care unit (PICU) admission. AKI diagnosis was based on the criteria of Kidney Disease: Improving Global Outcomes with serum creatinine and urine output. Sepsis was diagnosed according to surviving sepsis campaign international guidelines for children. Mortality was defined as all-cause death occurring during the PICU stay.Results: Among 342 critically ill children, 52 (15.2%) developed AKI during the first week after PICU admission, and 132 (38.6%) were diagnosed as sepsis and 30 (12.3%) died during PICU stay. Both the initial and peak values of uCXCL10 remained independently associated with AKI with adjusted odds ratios (AORs) of 1.791 (P = 0.010) and 2.002 (P = 0.002), sepsis with AORs of 1.679 (P = 0.003) and 1.752 (P = 0.002), septic AKI with AORs of 3.281 (P <0.001) and 3.172 (P <0.001), and PICU mortality with AORs of 2.779 (P = 0.001) and 3.965 (P <0.001), respectively. The AUCs of the initial uCXCL10 for predicting AKI, sepsis, septic AKI, and PICU mortality were 0.63 (0.53-0.72), 0.62 (0.56-0.68), 0.75 (0.64-0.87), and 0.77 (0.68-0.86), respectively. The AUCs for prediction by using peak uCXCL10 were as follows: AKI 0.65 (0.56-0.75), sepsis 0.63 (0.57-0.69), septic AKI 0.76 (0.65-0.87), and PICU mortality 0.84 (0.76-0.91).Conclusions: Urinary CXCL10 is independently associated with AKI and sepsis, and may be a potential indicator of septic AKI and PICU mortality in critically ill children.

AbstractA standardized, quantified assessment of furosemide responsiveness predicts acute kidney injury (AKI) in children after cardiac surgery and AKI progression in critically ill adults. The purpose of this study was to determine if response to furosemide is predictive of severe AKI in critically ill children outside of cardiac surgery. We performed a multicenter retrospective study of critically ill children. Quantification of furosemide response was based on urine flow rate (normalized for weight) measurement 0 to 6 hours after the dose. The primary outcome was presence of creatinine defined severe AKI (Kidney Disease Improving Global Outcomes stage 2 or greater) within 7 days of furosemide administration. Secondary outcomes included mortality, duration of mechanical ventilation and length of stay. A total of 110 patients were analyzed. Severe AKI occurred in 20% (n = 22). Both 2- and 6-hour urine flow rate were significantly lower in those with severe AKI compared with no AKI (p = 0.002 and p < 0.001). Cutoffs for 2- and 6-hour urine flow rate for prediction of severe AKI were <4 and <3 mL/kg/hour, respectively. The adjusted odds of developing severe AKI for 2-hour urine flow rate of <4 mL/kg/hour was 4.3 (95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.33–14.15; p = 0.02). The adjusted odds of developing severe AKI for 6-hour urine flow rate of <3 mL/kg/hour was 6.19 (95% CI: 1.85–20.70; p = 0.003). Urine flow rate in response to furosemide is predictive of severe AKI in critically ill children. A prospective assessment of urine flow rate in response to furosemide for predicting subsequent severe AKI is warranted.
