Sun-131 Is Podocyte Number at Birth a Risk Factor for Renal Pathophysiology in Later Life?

Abstract

adolescents who scored positive for disorders of initiating and maintaining sleep reported use of electronic devices in the hour before bed. Conclusions: A high prevalence of sleep disturbances are present in children and adolescents after kidney transplantation which may have an under recognised impact on quality of life. Serum magnesium may be a modifiable risk factor and lifestyle factors may also contribute. We suggest that screening for sleep disturbances should be part of routine post-transplant care to optimise normal growth and development.
