Abstract
Objective
To investigate the risk factors for prolonged acute post-streptococcal glomerulonephritis(APSGN) in children, and to provide evidence for the prevention and treatment of chronic kidney diseases in children.
Methods
A retrospective analysis was performed on the patients who were diagnosed as APSGN and hospitalized in the Department of Nephrology and Rheumatology of Hunan Children′s Hospital from January 2005 to August 2017 with complete clinical data, and follow-up time of more than 12 months.The patients were divided into the non-prolonged group and the prolonged group according to whether the disease course of the children exceeded 1 year.Logistic regression analysis of the high-risk factors for the prolonged disease was conducted.
Results
Among 271 children included in the study, 197 cases were males, 74 cases were females; with the median age of 9.91 (7.66, 11.33) years old; there were 154 cases in the non-prolonged group (course of disease < 1 year) and 117 patients in the prolonged group (course of disease ≥1 year). Logistic regression analysis showed that duration of proteinuria ≥8 weeks, acute kidney injury, a large amount of proteinuria, and female were the risk factors for the prolonged APSGN (all P<0.05). Giving 1 point to the acute kidney injury duration of proteinuria ≥8 weeks and female, and 2 points to a large amount of proteinuria, the receiver operating characteristic curve analysis showed that for patient whose risk score was 3 points or more, the sensitivity of APSGN to be belonged was 43.6%, specificity was 86.4%, and positive predictive value and negative predictive value were 70.8% and 66.8%.
Conclusions
Patients with a large amount of proteinuria accompanied by acute kidney injury or proteinuria duration ≥8 weeks, or female patients with a large amount of proteinuria, or female patients with acute kidney injury and proteinuria duration ≥8 weeks, but without a large amount of proteinuria, have a higher risk of prolonged APSGN.

期刊介绍:
Chinese Journal of Applied Clinical Pediatrics ( semi-monthly ) is a core journal of paediatrics under the supervision of China Association for Science and Technology, sponsored by Chinese Medical Association and undertaken by Xinxiang Medical College. Founded in 1986, it is openly circulated both at home and abroad. The journal has several columns, such as Expert Forum, Experimental Research and Paediatric Surgery, which are mainly for paediatric medical workers and medical researchers in hospitals. Its purpose is to reflect the new theories and technologies in paediatric medicine and scientific research at home and abroad, and to promote academic exchanges.
Chinese Journal of Applied Clinical Pediatrics is a source journal of China Science Citation Database (CSCD), a core journal of Peking University, a source journal of Chinese science and technology paper statistics (China Science and Technology Core Journals), a core academic journal of RCCSE, a high-quality scientific and technical journal of China, a high-quality scientific and technical journal of China Association for Science and Technology, and a high-quality scientific and technical journal of China Biomedical Science and Technology Association. We have been published in China Biomedical Literature Database (SinoMed), China Knowledge Network, Wanfang Data Knowledge Service Platform, China Academic Journal Abstracts, Scopus Database, Chemical Abstracts (USA), Japan Science and Technology Agency (JSTA) Database, Copernicus Abstracts (Poland), Abstracts of the Centre for Agricultural and Biological Sciences (CABS) of the United Kingdom, Cambridge Scientific Abstracts ProQuest Database, WHO Medical Journal of the Western Pacific Region (WMPR), and WHO Medical Journal of the Western Pacific Region (WMPR) of the United States. We have been included in dozens of authoritative databases at home and abroad, such as WHO Western Pacific Region Index of Medicine (WPRIM), Ullrich's Guide to Periodicals, and so on.
