Actual (reported)The goal of this observational study is to compare the efficacy of two most commonly used induction therapy for the prevention of acute rejection (AR) after renal transplantation in children. The main question it aims to answer is: Is basiliximab (anti-CD25 monoclonal antibody) induction therapy effective and safe in preventing AR after kidney transplantation in children compared with anti-thymoglobulin polyclonal antibodies induction therapy? The transplant and follow-up data of participants will be retrospectively collected. Researchers will compare the rate of AR to see if basiliximab (anti-CD25 monoclonal antibody) induction therapy is a better option for certain pediatric kidney transplant recipients.

Actual (reported)Acute rejection (AR)
The clinical diagnosis of AR is based on a significant increase in serum creatinine and the exclusion of other causes. The diagnosis of biopsy-confirmed AR is based on relevant histological changes.

Basiliximab was administered intravenously 4 hours before kidney graft reperfusion and at day 4 after kidney transplantation. For pediatric patients weighing \> 30kg, the dose of Basiliximab was 20mg, otherwise was 10mg.
Rabbit antithymoglobulin (rATG) was administered intravenously during kidney transplantation (pre-reperfusion) and 1-2 days after transplantation. The dose was about 0.5-1 mg/kg per day.
As an induction treatment for kidney transplantation
The cohort will be selected from five centers with the highest number of pediatric kidney transplant cases in China, including Tongji Hospital of Tongji Medical College of Huazhong University of Science and Technology, Changhai Hospital Affiliated to Naval Medical University, the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University, the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhejiang University and the First Affiliated Hospital of Sun Yat-sen University.
