BACKGROUND: Information on salt consumption patterns is needed to inform the need for and design of salt reduction strategies. OBJECTIVES: In northern Ghana, this study aimed to estimate household consumption of salt, including salt from bouillon, and compare (estimated) women and children's salt intake to global recommendations; to estimate the proportion of salt consumed from bouillon; and to identify factors, including knowledge, attitudes, and practices, associated with household salt consumption...

BACKGROUND: Increases in phosphorus intake (P-In) have been observed over the past years in adult populations. However, biomarker-based data are lacking on whether P-In also increased in children. OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study was to examine 24-h urinary phosphate excretion (PO4-Ex) and diet-related biomarkers potentially influencing phosphorus status in German children and adolescents from 1985 to 2015. DESIGN: This longitudinal noninvasive biomarker-based cohort study examined 24-h urine samples from children and adolescents of the DOrtmund Nutritional and Anthropometric Longitudinally Designed (DONALD) Study, collected over three decades...

Pseudo-Bartter syndrome (PBS) is characterised by hyponatraemic, hypochloraemic metabolic alkalosis that mimics Bartter syndrome, without renal tubular disease. We present a case of an infant with a positive cystic fibrosis (CF) newborn screening, hospitalised during the summer with dehydration, oliguria and apathy. Blood analysis revealed hypochloraemic metabolic alkalosis, hypokalaemia and hyponatraemia. Urine analysis showed leucocyturia with reduced sodium and chloride excretion fraction, and urinary culture was positive for Citrobacter koseri After antibiotherapy and intravenous rehydration with additional supplementation of sodium and chloride, the patient recovered completely...

Hypertension is the greatest and the most preventable risk factor for cardiovascular disease. Excessive sodium (Na) intake and insufficient potassium (K) intake have been identified as risk factors for hypertension. Socioeconomic status (SES) may be related to diet quality. In Japan, few studies have examined the relationship between urinary Na and K excretion and SES in adults, and there are no studies in children. In 2014, 1944 children (1382 households) in all public elementary schools in Yaese town, Okinawa, Japan were recruited to participate in a study...

PURPOSE: Sodium glucose co-transporter-2 inhibitors (SGLT2i) have been evaluated in children with type-2 diabetes (T2DM), Type-1 diabetes (T1DM) and several other non-diabetic conditions. Potential tolerability issues have been preventing us from routinely using SGLT2i in children with diabetes. No meta-analysis till date has evaluated the safety and tolerability of SGLT2i in children. This systematic review and meta-analysis aimed to address this knowledge-gap. METHODS: Databases were searched for randomized controlled trials (RCTs), case-control and cohort studies involving children receiving SGLT2i in intervention-arm...

RATIONALE: To describe the diagnostic and treatment approaches of renal abscesses complicated with acute pyelonephritis in children. PATIENT CONCERNS: Two children presented with fever, vomiting, and abdominal pain with no typical manifestations, like frequent urination, urgency, dysuria, hematuria, foam urine, and lumbago. Renal abscess complicating acute pyelonephritis was diagnosed by B-ultrasound and computed tomography enhancement. Moreover, inflammatory markers were elevated significantly, but routine blood and urine cultures were repeatedly negative...

BACKGROUND: The first uninterrupted sleep period (FUSP, time up to the first episode of enuresis/nocturia after falling asleep) is a frequently investigated parameter in adults with nocturia, as it correlates with quality of life. However, it has not been included in pediatric enuresis studies. AIM: Investigate FUSP, circadian renal water and sodium handling, as well as sleep quality before and after desmopressin therapy in enuresis. MATERIALS AND METHODS: We conducted a post hoc analysis of a prospective study in 30 treatment-naïve children with enuresis who underwent a video-polysomnography and a 24-h urine concentration profile before and after 6 months of desmopressin therapy...

An adequate sodium intake is related to various health benefits. Parallelly, the Mediterranean diet (MD) is a dietary pattern known for its many positive impacts on health. Nonetheless, the association between adherence to the MD and sodium urinary excretion is scarce, even more in children. This study aimed to assess the association between MD adherence and the excretion of sodium, as a proxy of intake. This cross-sectional analysis comprised 295 children (46.8% females, aged 7-11 years, mean age: 8.53 ± 0...

UNLABELLED: Abstract: Introduction: Familial Hyperkalemic Hypertension (FHHt) is an inherited disease characterized by hyperkalemia, hypertension and hyperchloremic acidosis. The primary defect is a hyperactive sodium chloride co-transporter, expressed in the renal distal tubule (DCT). FHHt is caused by mutation in either, WNK1, WNK4, KLHL3 or Cul3. The mechanism of hyperchloremic acidosis is not completely understood. METHODS: Clinical and genetic data were collected from the largest family with FHHt described in the literature...

UNLABELLED: Urinary tract infections are the initial manifestation in 30% of urinary tract malformations. Identifying these patients, who could benefit from a specific treatment, is still challenging. Hyponatremia during urinary tract infection has been proposed as a urinary tract malformation marker. We evaluate the prevalence of hyponatremia during febrile urinary tract infections and its association with subjacent urinary tract malformations. We performed a retrospective study of healthy patients under 16 years, diagnosed with a first episode of febrile urinary tract infection, who had undergone blood testing in the acute episode and at least one renal ultrasound during follow-up (January 2014-November 2020)...

The last decade has been characterized by exciting findings on eu- or hypoglycemic ketosis and ketoacidosis. This review emphasizes the following five key points: 1. Since the traditional nitroprusside-glycine dipstick test for urinary ketones is often falsely negative, the blood determination of β-hydroxybutyrate, the predominant ketone body, is currently advised for a comprehensive assessment of ketone body status; 2. Fasting and infections predispose to relevant ketosis and ketoacidosis especially in newborns, infants, children 7 years or less of age, and pregnant, parturient, or lactating women; 3...

OBJECTIVES: Proximal renal tubular acidosis (pRTA) is characterized by a defect in the ability of the proximal convoluted tubule to reabsorb bicarbonate. The biochemical hallmark of pRTA is hyperchloremic metabolic acidosis with a normal anion gap, accompanied by appropriate acidification of the urine (simultaneous urine pH <5.3). Isolated defects in bicarbonate transport are rare, and pRTA is more often associated with Fanconi syndrome (FS), which is characterized by urinary loss of phosphate, uric acid, glucose, amino acids, low-molecular-weight proteins, and bicarbonate...

To investigate the influence of ultra-processed food (UPF) consumption on systolic (SBP) and diastolic (DBP) blood pressure in children with obesity, using dietary and urinary markers. We conducted a secondary analysis of a randomized clinical trial involving children with obesity, aged 7 to 12 years. Over a period of six months, the children and their guardians attended monthly individual consultations and educational activities aimed at promoting a reduction in UPF consumption. During each visit, measurements of blood pressure, body weight, height, and 24-h dietary recall were recorded...

BACKGROUND: In recent years, chronic kidney disease has increased in the pediatric population and has been related to environmental factors. In the diagnosis of kidney damage, in addition to the traditional parameters, early kidney damage biomarkers, such as kidney injury molecule 1, cystatin C, and osteopontin, among others, have been implemented as predictors of early pathological processes. OBJECTIVE: This study aimed to evaluate the relationship between exposure to environmental pollutants and early kidney damage biomarkers...
