| Popis: | BACKGROUND. Natriuretic peptides have cardio- and renoprotective effects, inhibiting inflammatory and proliferative processes. The role of natriuretic peptides in the early diagnosis and characterization of chronic kidney disease (CKD) and cardiovascular complications as the disease development and progresses has not been studied.TNEAIM: to study the level of natriuretic peptides in children depending on the stage of CKD development and to assess the significance of this indicator.PATIENTS AND METHODS. The study involved 93 children with congenital diseases of the urinary system at the age from 3 to 18 years. Three groups were identified: group I - 54 patients with CKD stage I , group II - 29 patients with CKD stage II; Group III - 10 children with CKD stages IV-V (patients with CKD stages IV and V were combined due to their small amount). Control group - 10 clinically healthy children of the corresponding age. The N-terminal propeptide of natriuretic hormone (NT-proBNP) was determined in the blood by the enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay.RESULTS. An increase in the level of NT-proBNP by 28.7% takes place already in the early stages of CKD. With the progression of CKD, an increase in the level of NT-proBNP was noted from 57.4 % in children in the group of patients with stage I CKD to 80 % in children in group III patients. The maximum concentrations of NT-proBNP, many times higher than those in CKD stages I and II, were observed in children with CKD stages IV-V. The degree of increase in the level of NT-proBNP correlated with the severity of CKD.CONCLUSION. In the diagnosis and characterization of CKD and cardiorenal syndrome in children, the determination of the level of natriuretic peptides is of great importance. A high level of natriuretic peptides characterizes the presence of cardiorenal relationships and can be used as an additional criterion for assessing the severity of CKD, including at the early stages of its development. |
