Total 87 cases of children's glomerulonephritldes confirmed by renal b.jopsy and immunoelectron microscopy were analysed with densitometer and other radiologic methods.The results were as follows :1. In the total 87 cases of children 's glomerulonephritides, APSGN is the most prevalent disease.MSPGN , pupura nephritis, MLNS were followed in descending orders.2. They were more in male children (M:F = 2.3:1) 3. The size , width and cortical thickness of kidney were apt to be increased before the age of 10 years, but not helpful after the age of 10.
Radiologic findings and densitometry findings:a. APSGN ; Pulmonary congestion or congestive heart fallure findin 뚱 were found in 69%b. MSPGN in plain chest film , and decreased excretory function in densitometry even though no morphologic abnorrriality in IVP.; Renal enlargement and cortical scallopings were main findings in IVP study.Excretory function is slight decreased in densitometry only.Pulmonary congestion was not evident.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
