Microalbuminuria in children with primary and white-coat hypertension
Original language description
Microalbuminuria serves as an early marker of hypertension-related renal damage in adults. However, data on the prevalence of microalbuminuria in paediatric hypertensive patients in general and in children with white-coat hypertension (WCH) specificallyare lacking. The aim of our study was to investigate the prevalence of microalbuminuria in children with primary hypertension (PH) and WCH, respectively. This was a retrospective case review of children with PH and WCH treated at three paediatric nephrology centres. Untreated children with either form of hypertension for whom measurements of urinary albumin excretion (UAE) had been performed were enrolled in the study. The study cohort comprised 52 children (39 boys) with hypertension (26 children withPH, 26 with WCH). Microalbuminuria (> 3.2 mg/mmol creatinine) was present in 20% of children with PH and none of the children with WCH (p < 0.01). Children with PH had a higher median UAE than those with WCH (1.27 +/- 1.92 vs. 0.66 +/- 0.
