Abstract

Background

Some patients with childhood immunoglobulin A nephropathy (IgAN) progress to end-stage renal disease within 20 years, while others achieve spontaneous remission even without medication. Prognosis of IgAN with minimal proteinuria (MP-IgAN, <0.5 g/day/1.73 m2) at diagnosis seems to be generally good. However, the long-term outcome for patients with childhood MP-IgAN has not yet been determined.

Methods

We retrospectively analyzed 385 children newly diagnosed with biopsy-proven IgAN between June 1976 and July 2009 whose renal biopsy specimens could be evaluated by the Oxford classification criteria. Of these 385 children with IgAN, 106 (27.5 %) were diagnosed with MP-IgAN. We compared clinical and pathological findings between the 106 patients with MP-IgAN and the remaining 279 patients to elucidate the characteristics of MP-IgAN in children.

Results

Patients with MP-IgAN were identified through a school screening program (73.6 %) or upon presentation with gross hematuria (26.4 %). Patients with MP-IgAN had significantly milder pathological symptoms than those with IgAN. The most frequently used therapeutic regimes were angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitors (30.2 %) and no therapy (36.8 %). None of the patients with MP-IgAN reached stage III chronic kidney disease within 15 years after onset. Four patients with MP-IgAN (3.8 %) received immunosuppressive therapy during the course of the disease.

Conclusion

Our results indicate that the outcome of patients with a diagnosis of childhood MP-IgAN is good, but that careful long-term observation is required.

ADHS-Medikation erhöht das kardiovaskuläre Risiko

16.05.2024 Herzinsuffizienz Nachrichten

Erwachsene, die Medikamente gegen das Aufmerksamkeitsdefizit-Hyperaktivitätssyndrom einnehmen, laufen offenbar erhöhte Gefahr, an Herzschwäche zu erkranken oder einen Schlaganfall zu erleiden. Es scheint eine Dosis-Wirkungs-Beziehung zu bestehen.

Erstmanifestation eines Diabetes-Typ-1 bei Kindern: Ein Notfall!

16.05.2024 DDG-Jahrestagung 2024 Kongressbericht

Manifestiert sich ein Typ-1-Diabetes bei Kindern, ist das ein Notfall – ebenso wie eine diabetische Ketoazidose. Die Grundsäulen der Therapie bestehen aus Rehydratation, Insulin und Kaliumgabe. Insulin ist das Medikament der Wahl zur Behandlung der Ketoazidose.

Frühe Hypertonie erhöht späteres kardiovaskuläres Risiko

Wie wichtig es ist, pädiatrische Patienten auf Bluthochdruck zu screenen, zeigt eine kanadische Studie: Hypertone Druckwerte in Kindheit und Jugend steigern das Risiko für spätere kardiovaskuläre Komplikationen.

Betalaktam-Allergie: praxisnahes Vorgehen beim Delabeling

16.05.2024 Pädiatrische Allergologie Nachrichten

Die große Mehrheit der vermeintlichen Penicillinallergien sind keine. Da das „Etikett“ Betalaktam-Allergie oft schon in der Kindheit erworben wird, kann ein frühzeitiges Delabeling lebenslange Vorteile bringen. Ein Team von Pädiaterinnen und Pädiatern aus Kanada stellt vor, wie sie dabei vorgehen.
