Popis: | Glomerular and tubular function of transplanted kidneys were assessed in 46 children aged 15.7 +/- 4.6 yr, 4.2 +/- 2.8 yr after renal transplantation. There were 34 cadaveric, and 12 living-related donors. Twelve patients (26%) had acute episodes (acute tubular necrosis, rejection, or urinary tract infection) during follow-up. All patients were on triple immunosuppression. The mean serum creatinine was 1.5 +/- 0.6 mg/dL. Creatinine clearance (Ccreat) calculated from a 24-h urine collection was 48.0 +/- 19.7 mL/min/1.73 m(2), and that estimated from the Schwartz formula, 61.0 +/- 22.5 mL/min/1.73 m(2). A positive correlation was found between the calculated and estimated clearances. Mean urine concentrating ability was 487 +/- 184 mOsmol/kg, with a value lower than 400 mOsmol/kg in 35% of patients. There was a positive correlation between urine osmolality and estimated Ccreat. Metabolic acidosis (bicarbonate |
