Idiopathic nephrotic syndrome is the most frequent glomerular disease in children in most parts of the world. Children with steroid-sensitive nephrotic syndrome (SSNS) generally have a good prognosis regarding the maintenance of normal kidney function even in the case of frequent relapses. The course of SSNS is often complicated by a high rate of relapses and the associated side effects of repeated glucocorticoid (steroid) therapy. The following recommendations for the treatment of SSNS are based on the comprehensive consideration of published evidence by a working group of the German Society for Pediatric Nephrology (GPN) based on the systematic Cochrane reviews on SSNS and the guidelines of the KDIGO working group (Kidney Disease - Improving Global Outcomes).

Neurodevelopmental impairments have been recognised as a major association of paediatric kidney disease and bladder dysfunction, presenting challenges to clinicians and families to provide reasonable adjustments in order to allow access to investigations and treatments. Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is a common neurodevelopmental disorder characterised by impairments in social interaction/communication and repetitive sensory-motor behaviours. Mental health, learning and physical co-morbidities are common. There is emerging evidence that ASD and kidney disease have some overlaps with genetic copy number variants and environmental factors contributing to shared pathogenesis. Prevalence rates of ASD in kidney disease are currently not known. A high index of suspicion of underlying ASD is required when a young person presents with communication difficulties, anxiety or behaviour that challenges, which should then trigger referral for a neurodevelopmental and behavioural assessment. We discuss practical approaches for providing care, which include understanding methods of communication and sensory, behavioural and environmental adaptations.

Our aging population is growing and developing treatments for age-related diseases such as Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s disease has taken on an increasing urgency and is accompanied by high public awareness. The already high and rising incidence of acute kidney injury (AKI) in the elderly, however, has received relatively little attention despite the potentially fatal outcomes associated with an episode of AKI in this age group. When discussing AKI and aging, one should consider two aspects: first, elderly patients have an increased susceptibility to an AKI episode, and second, they have decreased kidney repair after AKI given the high incidence of progression to chronic kidney disease (CKD). It is unclear if the same factors that drive the increased susceptibility to AKI could be playing a role in the decreased repair capacity or if they are totally different and unrelated. This review will examine current knowledge on the risk factors for the increased susceptibility to AKI in the elderly and will also explore potential aspects that might contribute to a decreased kidney repair response in this age group.

Hypertension (HTN) and chronic kidney disease (CKD) are increasingly recognized in pediatric patients and represent risk factors for cardiovascular morbidity and mortality later in life. In CKD, enhanced tubular sodium reabsorption is a leading cause of HTN due to augmented extracellular fluid volume expansion. The renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system (RAAS) upregulates various tubular sodium cotransporters that are also targets of the hormone fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23) and its co-receptor Klotho. FGF23 inhibits the activation of 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D that is a potent suppressor of renin biosynthesis. Here we review the complex interactions and disturbances of the FGF23–Klotho axis, vitamin D, and the RAAS relevant to blood pressure regulation and discuss the therapeutic strategies aimed at mitigating their pathophysiologic contributions to HTN.
Preventing tuberculosis in paediatric kidney transplant recipients: is there a role for BCG immunisation pre-transplantation in low tuberculosis incidence countries?

Pediatric Nephrology volume 36, pages3023–3031 (2021)
The risk of tuberculosis (TB) disease is increased in children with chronic kidney disease (CKD), even higher in stage 5 CKD/kidney failure and especially high after kidney transplantation due to immunosuppression. TB disease may follow recent primary infection, or result from reactivation of latent infection. Reactivation is more common in adults, while progression following primary infection makes up a greater proportion of disease in children. Recommendations for preventing TB disease in some low TB incidence countries have previously included offering Bacillus Calmette-Guérin (BCG) vaccine to all children listed for kidney transplant if they had not received this as part of previous national immunisation programmes. Based on the available evidence, we recommend modifying this practice, focusing instead on awareness of risk factors for TB exposure, infection and disease and the use of appropriate testing strategies to identify and treat TB infection and disease.

Pediatric Nephrology volume 36, pages3045–3055 (2021)
Familial hypomagnesemia with hypercalciuria and nephrocalcinosis (FHHNC; OMIM 248250) is a rare autosomal recessive kidney disease caused by mutations in the CLDN16 or CLDN19 genes encoding the proteins claudin-16 and claudin-19, respectively. These are involved in paracellular magnesium and calcium transport in the thick ascending limb of Henle’s loop and account for most of the magnesium reabsorption in the tubules. FHHNC is characterized by hypomagnesaemia, hypercalciuria, and nephrocalcinosis, and progresses to kidney failure, requiring dialysis and kidney transplantation mainly during the second to third decades of life. Patients carrying CLDN19 mutations frequently exhibit associated congenital ocular defects leading to variable visual impairment. Despite this severe clinical course, phenotype variability even among siblings has been described in this disease, suggesting unidentified epigenetic mechanisms or other genetic or environmental modifiers. Currently, there is no specific therapy for FHHNC. Supportive treatment with high fluid intake and dietary restrictions, as well as magnesium salts, thiazides, and citrate, are commonly used in an attempt to retard the progression of kidney failure. A kidney transplant remains the only curative option for kidney failure in these patients. In this review, we summarize the current knowledge about FHHNC and discuss the remaining open questions about this disorder.
Non-immunosuppressive therapies for childhood IgA nephropathy

IgA nephropathy (IgAN) is the most common chronic primary glomerulonephritis in both children and adults, and 20–30% of patients with persistent hematuria/proteinuria progress to kidney failure within 20 years. In Japan, most cases of childhood IgAN are detected by school screening programs during the early onset of the disease when hematuria/proteinuria are asymptomatic and kidney function is normal. Therefore, it is possible to follow the detailed clinical course and appropriate therapeutic interventions from early onset of the disease. Data on non-immunosuppressive therapies for children with IgAN are highly limited. The Japanese Pediatric IgA Nephropathy Treatment Study Group was organized in 1989 to conduct clinical trials and accumulate data on treatments for childhood IgAN. In this review, we focus on non-immunosuppressive therapies, notably with renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system (RAAS) inhibitors for childhood IgAN and related clinical trials conducted primarily in Japan. We also describe the anti-inflammatory and antiproteinuric effects of RAAS inhibitors in IgAN, differences in treatment regimens because of the acute and active pathological features of childhood IgAN, adverse events of RAAS inhibitors, other non-immunosuppressive treatment options, and future directions.
Oral health in children with chronic kidney disease

Pediatric Nephrology volume 36, pages3067–3075 (2021)
The review summarizes the current understanding of dental health in children with chronic kidney disease (CKD). Oral conditions associated with CKD and its medical and surgical management have been described in cohort studies. Children with CKD may present with severe developmental defects of enamel (DDE) including discoloration, pitting, and reduced hardness leading to extensive tooth wear with normal function. The alkaline oral pH resulting from the uremia of CKD inhibits cariogenic bacteria, reduces dental caries risk, and increases accumulation of dental calculus. The malnutrition, acidosis, growth hormone resistance, anemia, and renal osteodystrophy in CKD provide multiple mechanisms for abnormal craniofacial growth and delayed tooth eruption. Following successful kidney transplant, caries risk increases due to normalization of oral pH in the presence of DDE; optimized diet and oral hygiene become critical in caries control. Post-transplant medications including cyclosporine A and calcium channel blockers may cause gingival overgrowth which in severe cases requires gingival surgery to allow tooth eruption, improve appearance, or permit orthodontic treatment. Immune suppression with sirolimus or everolimus may cause severe debilitating oral ulcerations. Long-term immune suppression increases the risk for development of oral candidiasis and oral cancers. Dental examinations and treatment are recommended for children with all stages of CKD to mitigate adverse oral outcomes of the disease and its management.
Emerging monitoring technologies in kidney transplantation

Pediatric Nephrology volume 36, pages3077–3087 (2021)
Non-invasive technologies to monitor kidney allograft health utilizing high-throughput assays of blood and urine specimens are emerging out of the research realm and slowly becoming part of everyday clinical practice. HLA epitope analysis and eplet mismatch score determination promise a more refined approach to the pre-transplant recipient–donor HLA matching that may lead to reduced rejection risk. High-resolution HLA typing and multiplex single antigen bead assays are identifying potential new offending HLA antibody subtypes. There is increasing recognition of the deleterious role non-HLA antibodies play in post-transplant outcomes. Donor-derived cell-free DNA detected by next-generation sequencing is a promising biomarker for kidney transplant rejection. Multi-omics techniques are shedding light on discrete genomic, transcriptomic, proteomic, and metabolomic signatures that correlate with and predict allograft outcomes. Over the next decade, a comprehensive approach to optimize kidney matching and monitor transplant recipients for acute and chronic graft dysfunction will likely involve a combination of those emerging technologies summarized in this review.
