Popis: | Poor growth is a common finding in children with chronic kidney disease (CKD) that has been associated with poor long-term outcomes. The etiology of poor growth in this population is multifactorial and includes dysregulation of the growth hormone (GH) and insulin-like growth factor (IGF) axis. In this review, we describe the data on GH resistance or insensitivity and inappropriate levels or reduced bioactivity of IGF proposed as contributing factors of growth impairment in children with CKD. Additionally, we describe the theorized negative effect of metabolic acidosis, another frequent finding in pediatric CKD, on the GH/IGF axis and growth. Last, we present the current and potential therapies for the treatment of short stature in pediatric CKD that target the GH/IGF hormonal axis. |
