Abstract Background Invasive fungal diseases (IFDs) are devastating opportunistic infections that result in significant morbidity and death in pediatric cancer and hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (SCT) patients. Identification of risk factors for IFD will help clinical decisions relevant to the diagnosis and management of IFD in a timely manner. Despite this, data evaluating prediction risk tools for IFD in pediatric cancer are limited. Methods We conducted a retrospective review of pediatric oncology patients with a diagnosis of febrile neutropenia (FN) at UChicago Comer Children’s Hospital from July 2009 to December 2016. We analyzed 13 clinical, laboratory, and treatment-related risk factors for IFD including (age, gender, underlying diagnosis, SCT status, graft vs. host disease, chemotherapy in the last 2 weeks, temperature, height, fever duration, presence of hypotension, absolute neutrophil count, duration of neutropenia, absolute monocyte count, and the absolute lymphocyte count (ALC)). IFD was stratified as possible, probable, and proven according to the latest EORTC/MSG criteria (2008). Multivariable logistic regression risk prediction models were developed with separate analyses for all suspected IFD cases and only proven and probable cases. Results A total of 667 FN episodes (FNEs) were identified in 265 patients. IFD was diagnosed in 62 episodes (9.2%) of which 13 (1.9%) were proven, 27 (4%) probable, and 22 (3.3%) possible. Five variables obtained were significantly more common in IFD. Patients presenting with hypotension and fever >5 days were highly associated with IFD (P < 0.001). SCT receipts (P < 0.01), neutropenia longer than 10 days (P = 0.02), and ALC <300 mm3 at time of presentation (P = 0.03) were additional risk factors. The final model performs very well compared with other published models with a receiver operating characteristic–area under the curve (ROC-AUC) of 86.5 for all IFD cases and ROC-AUC of 84.5 for proven, probable IFD cases. Conclusion Our findings showed important clinical markers for the development of IFD in pediatric oncology patients. A predictive regression model including identified significant factors has been created. Risk stratification with prospective external validation using this model can be used to refine the clinical approach. Disclosures All Authors: No reported Disclosures.

Abstract Background and Aims The aim of the study is to investigate the incidence and risk factors of hypertension (HT) and chronic kidney disease (CKD) in patients who had hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) during their childhood. Method Patients who had HSCT between January 2010-2019 with a minimum follow-up period of 6 months were included in the study. Data regarding renal complications were collected from the medical records of the patients. Guidelines of European Society of Hypertension (ESH) and American Academy of Pediatrics (APA) were used for the evaluation of hypertension. 24-hr ambulatory blood pressure monitoring (ABPM) was performed in children older than 5 years of age (68 patients). Ambulatory hypertension is diagnosed when systolic and/or diastolic blood pressure (BP) load is higher than 25%. Ambulatory prehypertension is diagnosed when mean systolic and/or diastolic BP is less than 95th percentile with systolic and/or diastolic BP load higher than 25%. Results A total of 72 patients (41 males and 31 females) were included in the study. The mean age of the patients at last visit was 10.8±4 years. ABPM revealed ambulatory HT in 6 patients (8.8%) and ambulatory prehypertension in 12 patients (17.6%). Office BP revealed HT in 3 patients (4.2%) and increased BP in four patients (5.6%) according to APA guideline (2017). In cohort, 12 patients with normal office BP (according to APA guideline) had ambulatory prehypertension or hypertension with ABPM. Office BP revealed HT in 1 patient (1.4%) and high-normal BP in 3 patients (4.2%) according to ESH guideline. In cohort, 15 patients with normal office BP (according to ESH guideline) had ambulatory prehypertension or hypertension with ABPM (Table 1). After a mean follow-up period of 4.4±2.5 years, CKD developed in 8 patients (11.1%). Patients with chronic graft-versus-host disease, with HLA-mismatched HSCT and/or transplantation of peripheric or cord blood hematopoietic stem cells had increased risk of CKD (p=0.041, p=0.033 and p=0.002, respectively). Conclusion Patients with HSCT should be regularly followed for the development of HT and ABPM should be used on regular basis. Patients with risk factors should be closely monitored for the development of CKD.
