Abstract
Pediatric acute kidney injury is becoming a widely recognized clinical diagnosis that can be found across the clinical spectrum. The advances of genomic studies in the field of nephrology, specifically the pathophysiology mechanisms of ischemia-reperfusion, sepsis, and nephrotoxicity as they relate to acute kidney injury, have stimulated the desire to understand a genotype-phenotype connection. Ranging from targeted gene to genome-wide association studies, acute kidney injury genetic study designs warrant thoughtful methodology considerations in order to minimize bias and to improve result validity.
