Unlabelled: Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a common consequence of perinatal asphyxia reported in 30 to 70% cases. We present 4 full-term neonates with oliguric/anuric AKI caused by perinatal asphyxia requiring renal replacement therapy (RRT) and their long-term outcomes. Patient No. 1 was dialyzed for 12 days (continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD)/continuous venovenous hemodiafiltration (CWHDF)), then was treated conservatively, and received pre-emptive kidney transplantation (KTx) at the age of 3 3/12 years. Patient No. 2 was treated with CAPD/automated peritoneal dialysis (APD) for 15 months, due to recovery of renal function, dialysis was withdrawn. He is now 8 5/12 years old and has chronic kidney disease (CKD) stage III. Patient No. 3 after 5 days of continuous arteriovenous hemofiltration (CAVH) required CAPD for 17 days. The child is now 8 4/12 years old and has CKD stage III. Patient No. 4, dialyzed from 3rd day of life for 51 months (CAVH followed by CAPD/APD), was given cadaver KTx at the age of 4 3/12 years. Psychomotor development is good in 2 patients, whereas patients No. 3 and 4 have tetraplegic spastic infantile cerebral palsy, severe mental retardation, and epilepsy.
Conclusions: Severe perinatal asphyxia with oliguric/anuric AKI is a risk factor for chronic kidney disease sometimes end-stage renal disease.

Association between interpregnancy interval and adverse perinatal outcomes according to maternal age in the context of China's two-child policy.

Department of Health Care, School of Medicine, Chengdu Women's and Children's Central Hospital, University of Electronic Science and Technology of China, Chengdu, China.
Background: Since the implementation of China's comprehensive two-child policy, the prevalence of long interpregnancy intervals (IPI) and advanced maternal age has increased. However, previous studies in China have mostly focused on the relationship between short IPIs and adverse perinatal outcomes, while neglecting maternal age as a potential confounder.
Methods: We conducted a retrospective cohort study of 23,899 pregnant women who delivered between January 1, 2017 and December 31, 2019 at Chengdu Women's and Children's Central Hospital and West China Second Hospital of Sichuan University.

Objective: Fetomaternal transfusion (FMT) is associated with increased perinatal mortality and morbidity, but data on postnatal outcomes are scarce. Our aim was to determine the incidence of adverse short-termand long-term sequelae of severe FMT.
Design: Retrospective cohort study.

Objective: To assess variability among data elements collected among existing neonatal hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy (HIE) data registries worldwide and to determine the need for future harmonization of standard common data elements.
Study Design: This was a cross-sectional study of data elements collected from current or recently employed HIE registry data forms. Registries were identified by literature search and email inquiries to investigators worldwide.

: Hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy (HIE) in late preterm and term neonates accounts for neonatal mortality and unfavorable neurodevelopmental outcomes in survivors despite therapeutic hypothermia (TH) for neuroprotection. The circumstances of death in neonates with HIE, including involvement of neonatal palliative care (NPC) specialists and neurodevelopmental follow-up at 18-24 months in survivors, warrant further evaluation. : A retrospective multicenter cohort study including neonates ≥ 35 weeks gestational age with moderate to severe HIE receiving TH, registered in the Swiss National Asphyxia and Cooling Register between 2011 and 2021.
