Genetic assessment in primary hyperoxaluria: why it matters
Giorgia Mandrile1 · Bodo Beck2 · Cecile Acquaviva3 · Gill Rumsby4 · Lisa Deesker5 · Sander Garrelfs 5 · Asheeta Gupta6 · Justine Bacchetta7 · Jaap Groothoff
doi : 10.1007/s00467-022-05613-2
Accurate diagnosis of primary hyperoxaluria (PH) has important therapeutic consequences. Since biochemical assessment can be unreliable, genetic testing is a crucial diagnostic tool for patients with PH to define the disease type.
Long-term complications of primary distal renal tubular acidosis
Fernando Santos & Helena Gil-Peña
doi : 10.1007/s00467-022-05546-w
The clinical manifestations of primary distal renal tubular acidosis usually begin in childhood, but the disease is caused by a genetic defect that persists throughout life.
“Don’t let me be misunderstood�: communication with patients from a different cultural background
Christina Taylan & Lutz T. Weber
doi : 10.1007/s00467-022-05573-7
In recent years, migration and the social changes associated with it have increasingly become the focus of scientific interest. The diversity of cultures in hospitals poses a major challenge. Medical teams are often confronted with language barriers and different concepts of illness, health, and healing.
A clinical approach to tubulopathies in children and young adults
Rachael Kermond, Andrew Mallett & Hugh McCarthy
doi : 10.1007/s00467-022-05606-1
Kidney tubules are responsible for the preservation of fluid, electrolyte and acid-base homeostasis via passive and active mechanisms. These physiological processes can be disrupted by inherited or acquired aetiologies.

Variants in genes coding for collagen type IV α-chains are frequent causes of persistent, isolated hematuria during childhood
Joseph L. Alge, Nasim Bekheirnia, Alexandra R. Willcockson, Xiang Qin, Steven E. Scherer, Michael C. Braun & Mir Reza Bekheirnia
doi : 10.1007/s00467-022-05627-w
Children with persistent, isolated microscopic hematuria typically undergo a limited diagnostic workup and are monitored for signs of kidney disease in long-term longitudinal follow-up, which can delay diagnosis and allow disease progression in some cases.

Alexandra Savis, John M. Simpson, Saleha Kabir, Kelly Peacock, Hayley Beardsley & Manish D. Sinha
doi : 10.1007/s00467-022-05500-w
Valvar abnormalities in children and adults with autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) have previously been reported as a frequent occurrence. Mitral valve prolapse (MVP), in particular, has been reported in almost one-third of adult patients and nearly 12% of children with ADPKD.
A rare cause of nephrotic syndrome—sphingosine-1-phosphate lyase (SGPL1) deficiency: 6 cases and a review of the literature
Tugba Tastemel Ozturk, Nur Canpolat, Seha Saygili, Umut Selda Bayrakci, Oguz Soylemezoglu, Fatih Ozaltin & Rezan Topaloglu
doi : 10.1007/s00467-022-05656-5
Recently, recessive mutations in SGPL1 (sphingosine-1-phosphate lyase), which encodes the final enzyme of sphingolipid metabolism, have been reported to cause steroid-resistant nephrotic syndrome, adrenal insufficiency, and many other organ/system involvements. We aimed to determine the clinical and genetic characteristics, and outcomes in patients with SGPL1 mutations.
Urinary protein to creatinine ratio during the first month of life in very preterm infants—a prospective cohort study (PROTIPREMA)
Marine Trigolet, Francesco Bonsante, Jean-Pierre Guignard, Jean-Bernard Gouyon & Silvia Iacobelli
doi : 10.1007/s00467-022-05653-8
Preterm infants have physiological proteinuria and values of urine protein to creatinine ratio (UPr/Cr) are higher compared to full-term infants during the first week of life. Few investigations explored the changes of proteinuria in very preterm infants (VPI, ≤ 31 weeks of gestation) older than a week, and it is unclear whether high and persistent proteinuria is associated with kidney injury in this population.
Urine podocyte mRNA loss in preterm infants and related perinatal risk factors
Qi Gao, Congchao Lu, Xiuying Tian, Jun Zheng & Fangrui Ding
doi : 10.1007/s00467-022-05663-6
Preterm birth has been identified as a risk factor for development of long-term chronic kidney disease. Podocyte loss has been reported to contribute to this process in preterm animal models. However, details about podocyte loss in preterm infants and related perinatal risk factors have not been well clarified.

Gabriela A. Fiorentino, Elizabeth Miliwebsky, MarÃa Victoria Ramos, Gisela Zolezzi, Isabel Chinen, Glenda Guzmán, Rubén Nocera, Romina Fernández-Brando, Adriana Santiago, Ramón Exeni & Marina S. Palermo
doi : 10.1007/s00467-022-05671-6
Hemolytic uremic syndrome (HUS) is characterized by microangiopathic hemolysis, thrombocytopenia, and thrombus formation leading to tissue injury. HUS is classified according to its etiology as post-diarrheal or atypical HUS. Differential diagnosis of both entities continues to be a challenge for pediatric physicians.
Vitamin D supplementation in children and young adults with persistent proteinuria secondary to glomerular disease
Amy J. Kogon, Lance S. Ballester, Jarcy Zee, Natalie Walker, Joshua J. Zaritsky, Meredith A. Atkinson, Christine B. Sethna, Andrew N. Hoofnagle, Mary B. Leonard & Michelle R. Denburg
doi : 10.1007/s00467-022-05660-9
Vitamin D deficiency is common in glomerular disease. Supplementation may be ineffective due to ongoing urinary losses of vitamin D binding protein. We sought to determine if daily cholecalciferol supplementation would increase vitamin D concentrations in children with glomerular disease and persistent proteinuria, without adverse effects.

Oligomeganephronia (OMN) is a rare congenital anomaly involving the kidney and urinary tract, characterized by decreased number and compensatory hypertrophy of the nephron. It is caused by abnormal kidney development during the embryonic period, especially in patients with low birth weight; however, the actual etiology and clinical features remain unknown.
