Description
Keia Sanderson and co-authors check kidney health in 2026 among teenagers born extremely early. Babies born before twenty-eight weeks face higher odds of chronic kidney disease, but how common damage is by adolescence, and whether birth records predict it, was unclear. The team assesses a multi-state cohort at about eighteen years old.
Among teens with full measures, two thirds show at least one sign of kidney trouble: weak filtration, high blood pressure, or protein in urine. Machine learning screens of birth-era factors predict poorly. The authors conclude that kidney checks should not wait for risk scores in this group.
