Popis: Rationale & Objective: The objective of this study is to evaluate the effect of body mass index (BMI) on estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) levels in children with congenital solitary kidney (CSK). Moreover, we evaluated if other factors could influence this relationship. Study Design: Multicenter cross-sectional study. Setting & Participants: University hospital pediatrics departments. Subjects: Two hundred eighty-one patients with CSK. Predictors: Weight, height, BMI-SDS (standard deviation score), duration of overweight/obesity, pubertal stage, systolic (SBP) and diastolic (DBP) blood pressure, eGFR, and renal ultrasound were obtained at the last follow-up visit. The population was classified on the basis of nutritional status and divided in tertiles for duration of overweight/obesity. We compared eGFR levels among these categories. A simple regression was used to correlate eGFR with BMI-SDS. To evaluate if other factors could influence the relationship between eGFR and BMI-SDS, a general linear model was performed, including gender, birth weight
