ABSTRACT
Little is known about the effect tubulointerstitial nephropathies have in modulating maternal-fetal outcomes in pregnancy. Therefore, we analyzed the main outcomes of pregnancy in these women to gain a better understanding of the role of a reduction in maternal kidney mass. From the Torino Cagliari Observational Study (TOCOS) cohort, we selected 529 patients with a diagnosis of tubulointerstitial disease and focused on 421 patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) stage 1, without hypertension but with proteinuria less than 0.5 g/day at referral. From a cohort of 2969 singleton deliveries from low-risk pregnancies followed in the same settings we selected a propensity score matched control cohort of 842 pregnancies match 21 for age, parity, body mass index, ethnicity, and origin. Time to delivery was significantly shorter in the study cohort 38.0 (Quartile 1-Quartile 3 37.0-39.0) versus 39.0 (Q1-Q3 38.0-40.0) weeks, with respect to controls. Incidence of delivery of less than 37 gestational weeks significantly increased from controls (7.4%) to women with previous acute pyelonephritis (10.8%), other tubulointerstitial diseases (9.7%) and was the highest in patients with a single kidney (31.1%). Similarly, neonatal birthweight significantly and progressively decreased from controls (3260 g [Q1-Q3 2980-3530]), previous acute pyelonephritis (3090 g [Q1-Q3 2868-3405], other tubulointerstitial diseases (3110 g [Q1-Q3 2840-3417]), and to solitary kidney (2910 g [Q1-Q3 2480-3240]). Risk of developing preeclampsia was significantly higher in the CKD cohort (3.6% vs 1.7% in low-risk controls). Thus, even a small reduction in functional kidney mass, such as a pyelonephritic scar, is associated with a shorter duration of pregnancy and an increased risk of preterm delivery. The risk is proportional to the extent of parenchymal reduction and is highest in cases with a solitary kidney.
