Trial summary

Renal tubules play an important role in fluid, electrolyte, and acid-base homeostasis. Defect of these functions can give rise to a host of disorders. These disorders can lead to life threatening disturbances in electrolytes and acid-base balance. In Egypt, there is little data about these disorders. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Patterns of Renal Tubular Disorders in Egyptian Children: a Single Center Study

Renal tubules play an important role in fluid, electrolyte, and acid-base homeostasis. Defect of these functions can give rise to a host of disorders. These disorders can lead to life threatening disturbances in electrolytes and acid-base balance. In Egypt, there is little data about these disorders. Many of these cases are diagnosed late, therefore Early suspicion for diagnosis can improve the overall clinical outcome of these children.

Renal tubules play an important role in fluid, electrolyte, and acid-base homeostasis. Defect of these functions can give rise to a host of disorders. These disorders can lead to life threatening disturbances in electrolytes and acid-base balance. In Egypt, there is little data about these disorders. Many of these cases are diagnosed late, therefore Early suspicion for diagnosis can improve the overall clinical outcome of these children. As a result, starting management early will help those children have a better life. Therefore awareness about these disorders and long-term outcome is really important. The investigators present the clinical characterizations of many tubular disorder and the follow up in our center.

The aim of this study is to reveal the different clinical presentations and the main lab features of renal tubular disorders in children to promote early recognition and management.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. weight

    in kilograms

    Measured: 1 years

  2. Glomerular function

    The glomerular function was assessed by estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) calculated using Schwartz formula. Chronic kidney disease (CKD) was defined in the presence of a permanent reduction in GFR (e-GFR; <60 ml/min/1.73 m2 Kidney Disease Outcomes Quality Initiative < stage 3).

    Measured: 1 years

  3. height

    in meters

    Measured: 1 years
