A study of 269 children enrolled into a National Registry for with persistent glomerular hematuria identified 131 individuals genetically confirmed X-linked Alport Syndrome. single variant c.1871G>A p.Gly624Asp (G624D) in COL4A5 was predominant and accounted 39% Syndrome unrelated Polish families (44 113). To evaluate its origins, the genetic variation 2.79 Mb segment encompassing locus on chromosome X assessed. All G624D alleles were found same rare haplotype background, indicating founder...
Acute renal failure (ARF) is still a frequent complication following extensive cardiac surgery. Renal replacement therapy (RRT) modality preferences to treat critically ill children have shifted from peritoneal dialysis continuous (CRRT), although the experience with latter highly limited in infants.We describe our results veno-venous hemodiafiltration (CVVHDF) 25 (15 males, 10 females) who underwent CRRT 2001 2006 and were retrospectively reviewed.We performed (CVHDF) using PRISMA (Hospal)....
Background. It is estimated that 20–50% of adult patients start chronic dialysis therapy without prior contact with a nephrologist. The aim this nationwide study was to assess clinical and metabolic status children at the in Poland regard timing referral
Objective.Erythropoiesis-stimulating agents (ESAs) are applied as a standard therapy in children with anaemia chronic kidney disease. The aim of this study was to describe the efficacy and details ESA treatment population dialysed Poland. Material methods. had prospective observational design performed 12 dialysis centres. group comprised 117 mean age at enrolment 165.33 (97.18–196.45) months. Results.Dialysed were treated mostly epoietin beta darbepoietin. dose 99 (68–147) U/kg/week...
Current guidelines advocate use of arteriovenous fistula (AVF) over central venous catheter (CVC) for children starting hemodialysis (HD). European data on current practice, determinants access choice and switches, patient survival, to transplantation are limited. We included incident patients from 18 countries who started HD 2000 2013 whom vascular type was reported the ESPN/ERA-EDTA Registry. Data were evaluated using descriptive statistics, logistic Cox regression models, cumulative...
Diagnosis of contrast induced-nephropathy (CIN) by a classic renal biomarker such as creatinine concentration can be delayed because various factors that influence this marker. Changes in new biomarkers neutrophil-gelatinase associated lipocalin (NGAL) and cystatin C are postulated to more sensitive for recognizing patients prone CIN-acute kidney injury (AKI).To investigate the role NGAL early diagnosis after cardiac catheterisation.The study group consisted 50 with congenital heart...
The aim of the study was to assess plasma homocysteine concentration in peritoneal dialysis patients, and compare effect different solutions (glucose-based icodextrin-based) on clearance homocysteine.The group comprised 10 chronic patients; control 15 healthy, age-matched non-obese subjects with normal renal function. Patients vitamin B(12) or folate deficiency were excluded. In all subjects, adequacy parameters assessed at baseline. carried out 2.27% glucose 7.5% icodextrin (12-h dwell...

Background Cystinuria is an inherited disorder that results in increased excretion of cystine the urine. It accounts for about 1–2% pediatric kidney stones. In this study, we sought to identify clinical characteristics patients with cystinuria a national cohort.Methods This was retrospective study involving 30 from Polish Registry Inherited Tubulopathies. Initial data and 6-month follow-up were analyzed. Mutational analysis performed by targeted Sanger sequencing and, if applicable, MLPA...
The aim of this study was to evaluate the galectin-3 (Gal-3) level in children with a congenital solitary functioning kidney (cSFK) and determine its association common renal function parameters. consisted 68 (49 males) cSFK. We demonstrated that cSFK had lower than healthy subjects (p < 0.001). No significant differences serum cystatin C (Cys C) levels between reference group were found. reduced estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) significantly higher Gal-3 Cys compared those...
The aim of this multicenter nationwide study was to reveal the influence social and non-medical factors on qualifying children commence chronic dialysis, withhold it or withdraw it. It also important compare real postulated significance particular that were taken under consideration by pediatric nephrologists, neonatologists anesthesiologists (intensivists).The survey addressed whole population specialists dealing with renal replacement therapy for at key nephrology centers in Poland.Most...
