Summary created with AI assistance · Source: medscape.com
  • SARS-CoV-2 infection significantly increases the risk of new-onset chronic kidney disease (CKD) in individuals under 21.

  • A retrospective cohort study of 1,900,146 children found that 487,378 had COVID-19 while 1,412,768 did not.

  • The risk for CKD stages II or higher was notably elevated between 28 and 729 days post-infection, especially in children with preexisting CKD or acute kidney injury.

  • Long-term monitoring of kidney health is advised as COVID-19 is linked to adverse kidney outcomes.
  • Results of this study suggest that SARS-CoV-2 infection is associated with an increased risk of adverse kidney outcomes, including new-onset CKD and worsening kidney function, particularly among children with preexisting CKD or acute-phase AKI, underscoring the importance of long-term monitoring for kidney health in children and adolescents affected by COVID-19.
