- First-year profile of biomarkers for early detection of renal injury in infants with congenital urinary tract obstruction(2019) KOSTIC, Dusan; BEOZZO, Glenda Priscila Neves dos Santos; COUTO, Saulo Brasil do; KATO, Andre Henrique Teruaki; LIMA, Laila; PALMEIRA, Patricia; KREBS, Vera Lucia Jornada; BUNDUKI, Victor; FRANCISCO, Rossana Pulcineli Vieira; ZUGAIB, Marcelo; CARVALHO, Werther Brunow de; KOCH, Vera Hermina KalikaBackground Diagnosis of renal function impairment and deterioration in congenital urinary tract obstruction (UTO) continues to be extremely challenging. Use of renal biomarkers in this setting may favor early renal injury detection, allowing for a reliable choice of optimal therapeutic options and prevention or minimization of definitive renal damage. Methods This longitudinal, prospective study analyzed the first-year profile of two serum renal biomarkers: creatinine (sCr) and cystatin C (sCyC); and six urinary renal biomarkers: neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (NGAL), kidney injury molecule-1 (KIM-1), transforming growth factor beta-1 (TGF-beta 1), retinol-binding protein (RBP), cystatin C (mu CyC), and microalbuminuria (ALB) in a cohort of 37 infants with UTO divided into three subgroups: 14/37 with unilateral hydro(uretero)nephrosis, 13/37 with bilateral hydro(uretero)nephrosis, and 10/37 patients with lower urinary tract obstruction (LUTO), compared with 24 healthy infants matched by gestational age and birth weight. Results All urine biomarkers showed significantly higher values at the first month of life (p <= 0.009), while NGAL (p = 0.005), TGF-beta 1 (p<0.001), and mu ALB (p<0.001) were high since birth compared to controls. Best single biomarker performances were RBP in bilateral hydronephrosis and LUTO subgroups and KIM-1 in unilateral hydronephrosis subgroup. Best biomarker combination results for all subgroups were obtained by matching RBP with TGF-beta 1 or KIM-1 and NGAL with CyC ([AUC] <= 0.934; sensitivity <= 92.4%; specificity <= 92.8%). Conclusions RBP, NGAL, KIM-1, TGF-beta 1, and CyC, alone and especially in combination, are relatively efficient in identifying surgically amenable congenital UTO and could be of practical use in indicating on-time surgery.
- The role of renal biomarkers to predict the need of surgery in congenital urinary tract obstruction in infants(2019) KOSTIC, D.; BEOZZO, G. P. N. S.; COUTO, S. B. do; KATO, A. H. T.; LIMA, L.; PALMEIRA, P.; KREBS, V. L. J.; BUNDUKI, V; V, R. P. Francisco; ZUGAIB, M.; DENES, F. T.; CARVALHO, W. B. de; KOCH, V. H. K.Introduction The diagnosis of renal function impairment and deterioration in congenital urinary tract obstruction (UTO) continues to be extremely challenging. The use of new renal biomarkers in this setting may favor early renal injury detection, allowing for a reliable choice of optimal therapeutic options and the prevention or minimization of definitive renal damage. Objective The aim of the study was to investigate a selection of promising biomarkers of renal injury with the intention of evaluating and comparing their profile with clinically based decisions for surgical intervention of infants with congenital obstructive uropathies. Study design The first-year profile of renal biomarkers, serum creatinine (sCr), serum and urine cystatin C (CyC), neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (NGAL), kidney injury molecule-1 (KIM-1), transforming growth factor beta-1 (TGF-beta 1), retinolbinding protein (RBP), and microalbuminuria (mu ALB), was analyzed in a cohort of 37 infants with congenital UTO, divided into three subgroups, 14 cases with grade III unilateral hydro (uretero)nephrosis, 13 cases with grade III bilateral hydro (uretero)nephrosis, and 10 cases with low urinary tract obstruction (LUTO), compared with 24 healthy infants matched by gestational age and birth weight. Serum and urine samples were stored at -70 degrees C and thereafter analyzed by quantitative enzymatic immunoassay. Results Compared with the control group (Figure), all renal biomarker values were significantly increased in patients (P <= 0.02). In the unilateral hydronephrosis and LUTO group, RBP (P <= 0.043), NGAL (P <= 0.043), KIM-1 (P <= 0.03), and TGF-beta 1 (P <= 0.034) values dropped significantly after surgery. Neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin alone and in combination with urine and serum CyC demonstrated the best performance in determining the need for surgery (area under the curve, 0.801 and 0.881, respectively). Biomarker profile analysis was suggestive of surgical intervention in 55.4% (7/13) of non-operated cases, and most of the biomarker values were above the cutoff levels within at least 3 months before the clinically based surgical decision in 58% (14/24) of all operated patients. Discussion To the best of the authors' knowledge, this is the first study to present the clinical use of selected group of serum and urinary biomarkers in the setting of UTO to distinguish between patients who would benefit from surgery intervention. The most promising results were obtained using NGAL, RBP, TGF-beta 1, and KIM-1, especially in the unilateral hydro(uretero)nephrosis and LUTO subgroups when compared with the control group. Conclusions Urine biomarkers, alone and in combination, demonstrated high potential as a non-invasive diagnostic tool for identifying infants who may benefit from earlier surgical intervention.

P. N. D. S.; KOSTIC, D.- Establishment of oral microbiome in very low birth weight infants during the first weeks of life and the impact of oral diet implementation(2023) VANZELE, Pedro A. R.; SPARVOLI, Luiz Gustavo; CAMARGO, Patricia P. de; TRAGANTE, Carla R.; BEOZZO, Glenda P. N. S.; KREBS, Vera L. J.; CORTEZ, Ramon V.; TADDEI, Carla R.Very low birth weight (VLBW) infants, mostly preterm, have many barriers to feeding directly from the mother's breast, and need to be fed alternatively. Feeding is a major influencer in oral microbial colonization, and this colonization in early life is crucial for the promotion of human health. Therefore, this research aimed to observe the establishment of oral microbiome in VLBW infants during their first month of life through hospitalization, and to verify the impact caused by the implementation of oral diet on the colonization of these newborns. We included 23 newborns followed during hospitalization and analyzed saliva samples collected weekly, using 16S rRNA gene sequencing. We observed a significant decrease in richness and diversity and an increase in dominance over time (q-value < 0.05). The oral microbiome is highly dynamic during the first weeks of life, and beta diversity suggests a microbial succession in early life. The introduction of oral diet does not change the community structure, but affects the abundance, especially of Streptococcus. Our results indicate that although time is related to significant changes in the oral microbial profile, oral feeding benefits genera that will remain colonizers throughout the host's life.

conferenceObject FIRST-YEAR PROFILE OF BIOMARKERS FOR EARLY DETECTION OF RENAL INJURY IN HEALTHY INFANTS(2017) KOSTIC, Dusan; BEOZZO, Glenda Priscila Neves Dos Santos; KATO, Andre Henrique Teruaki; KREBS, Vera Lucia Jornada; BUNDUKI, Victor; ZUGAIB, Marcelo; KOCH, Vera Hermina Kalika- Use of budesonide associated with a pulmonary surfactant to prevent bronchopulmonary dysplasia in premature newborns- A systematic review(2023) MORAES, Lucas Hirano Arruda; COELHO, Rachel Mocelin Dias; BEOZZO, Glenda Priscila Neves dos Santos; YOSHIDA, Renata de Araujo Monteiro; DINIZ, Edna Maria de Albuquerque; CARVALHO, Werther Brunow deObjective: Among the mechanisms proposed for the development of bronchopulmonary dysplasia is the increase in the pulmonary inflammatory process and oxidative stress. Thus, the control of this process may result in improvements in bronchopulmonary dysplasia-related outcomes. This study aims to analyze the current scientific evidence regarding the use of budesonide, a potent anti-inflammatory drug, associated with a pulmonary surfactant to prevent bronchopulmonary dysplasia.Methods: A systematic review of the literature was performed on the Embase and MEDLINE plat-forms, and studies that compared budesonide with pulmonary surfactant versus pulmonary sur-factant for treating respiratory distress syndrome were included. The primary outcome was a reduction in bronchopulmonary dysplasia or death. Results: Four randomized clinical trials and two observational studies were included in this systematic review. Three of the randomized clinical trials found a reduction in bronchopulmonary dysplasia or death in the use of budesonide with the surfactant, all the other studies (1 clinical trial and 2 observa-tional studies) found no statistical differences between the groups for the primary outcomes. The three main studies showed a reduction in the primary outcome; however, all studies showed great heteroge-neity regarding the type of surfactant (poractant or beractant) and the method of administration. Conclusion: Robust clinical studies, in a heterogeneous population, using porcine surfactant associated with budesonide, with administration by a minimally invasive technique are necessary for there to be a recommendation based on scientific evidence for its widespread use.(c) 2022 Sociedade Brasileira de Pediatria.
