Neonatal AKI is associated with poor short- and long-term outcomes. The objective of this study was to describe the risk factors outcomes neonatal in first postnatal week.The international retrospective observational cohort study, Assessment Worldwide Epidemiology Neonates (AWAKEN), included neonates admitted a intensive care unit who received at least 48 hours intravenous fluids. Early defined by an increase serum creatinine >0.3 mg/dl or urine output <1 ml/kg per hour on days 2-7,...
Acute kidney injury (AKI) occurs commonly in preterm neonates and is associated with increased morbidity mortality.
Abstract Objective This study aimed to evaluate the association between acute kidney injury (AKI) and bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) in infants born <32 weeks of gestational age (GA). Study Design Present is a secondary analysis premature at GA Assessment Worldwide Acute Kidney Injury Epidemiology Neonates (AWAKEN) retrospective cohort (n = 546). We stratified by used logistic regression determine AKI moderate or severe BPD/mortality. Results Moderate BPD occurred 214 546 (39%) infants,...
<b><i>Background:</i></b> Acute kidney injury (AKI) and intraventricular hemorrhage (IVH) are common in premature infants. We previously demonstrated that infants with AKI have a higher hazards ratio to develop grade ≥2 IVH when controlling for confounders. However, single-center study was unable show an overall association. <b><i>Objectives:</i></b> To test the hypothesis diagnosed increased risk of independent variables associated both IVH,...
Abstract Objective This study aimed to evaluate the association between acute kidney injury (AKI) and lung outcomes in infants born ≥32 weeks of gestational age (GA). Study Design Secondary analysis GA assessment worldwide epidemiology neonates (AWAKEN) retrospective cohort (n = 1,348). We used logistic regression assess AKI a composite outcome chronic disease (CLD) or death at 28 days linear duration respiratory support. Results CLD occurred 82/1,348 (6.1%) infants, while 22/1,348 (1.6%);...
Background Bacterial vaginosis (BV) is the most common cause of vaginal discharge. The objective was to compare prevalence BV by Nugent score among African-American women who have sex with (WSW) and men (WSWM) compared an age-matched group (WSM). Secondary objectives were correlate low versus high scores symptoms diagnosis sexual practices.A secondary analysis clinical laboratory data from WSW (n=73) WSWM (n=68) participating in Women's Sexual Health Project (August 2011-October 2013) a 3:1...
