Kinetic estimation of glomerular filtration rate (KeGFR) has proved its utility in predicting acute kidney injury (AKI) in both adults and children. Our objective is to assess the clinical utility of KeGFR in predicting AKI severity and progression to acute kidney disease (AKD) in patients already diagnosed with AKI and to examine major adverse kidney events at 30 days (MAKE30). We retrospectively calculated the KeGFR within the first 24 h of identified AKI (KeGFR) and in the 24 h prior to AKD (KeGFR) in all admitted children under 18 years old. The cohort consisted of 803 patients with AKI. We proposed a new classification of KeGFR stages, from 1 to 5, and assessed the predictive value of KeGFR stages for AKD development and MAKE30. AKI severity was associated with lower KeGFRs. KeGFR and KeGFR predicted AKD with AUC values between 0.777 and 0.841 respectively, < 0.001. KeGFR had the best performance in predicting MAKE30 (AUC of 0.819) with a sensitivity of 66.67% and specificity 87.7%. KeGFR stage 3, 4 and 5 increased the risk of AKD by 3.07, 6.56 and 28.07 times, respectively, while KeGFR stage 2, 3, 4 and 5 increased the risk of AKD 2.79, 3.58, 32.75 and 80.14 times. Stage 5 KeGFR and KeGFR stages 3, 4 and 5 increased the risk of MAKE30 by 7.77, 4.23. 5.89 and 69.42 times in the adjusted models. KeGFR proved to be a useful tool in AKI settings. KeGFR dynamics can predict AKI severity, duration and outcomes.

Background: The estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) and kinetic estimated glomerular filtration rate (KeGFR) have not been compared, with urinary measured creatinine clearance (mCrCl) or serum cystatin C (CysC) eGFR, soon after kidney transplantation (KTx) with prompt primary function. This study aims to compare post-KTx, urinary mCrCl, and eGFR CysC with eGFR and KeGFR.

Methods: Post-KTx, urine was collected every 12 hours from 25 of the 34 consenting subjects to calculate mCrCl and compare with Modification of Diet in Renal Disease (MDRD)-4, Jelliffe eGFR, Cockcroft-Gault creatinine clearance (CrCl), and KeGFR by Chen and Brater formulae.

Background: Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a multifactorial condition often induced by drugs commonly used in hospitals. Identifying and staging AKI necessitates frequent monitoring of renal function.

Aim: To assess the impact of real-world hospital practices regarding serum creatinine (SCr) testing on the identification and staging of AKI, and its implications for adjusting drug doses.

Introduction: Ideal timing of Renal Replacement Therapy (RRT) discontinuation in Acute Kidney Injury (AKI) is still unknown. We aimed to study the role of creatinine-related variables in predicting RRT successful discontinuation and to propose a clinical predictive score.

Methods: In this single-centre retrospective study, we evaluated all AKI patients in whom RRT was interrupted for at least 48 hours.

Introduction: Accurate and actionable diagnosis of Acute Kidney Injury (AKI) ahead of time is important to prevent or mitigate renal insufficiency. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the performance of Kinetic estimated Glomerular Filtration Rate (KeGFR) in timely predicting AKI in critically ill septic patients.

Methods: We conducted a retrospective analysis on septic ICU patients who developed AKI in AmsterdamUMCdb, the first freely available European ICU database.
