| Abstract: | The authors describe the results of the follow-up of children of the early age (n-68) and senior age (n-42) with different allergic diseases and 77 children with metabolic nephropathies (oxalate nephropathy, pyelonephritis associated with metabolic disorders, interstitial nephritis). In both age groups, an interrelationship was established between renal pathology in the form of metabolic nephropathies and allergo-pathology. Children with different allergies manifested the high incidence of metabolic disorders, with crystalluria and erythrocyturia being mostly encountered in respiratory allergies whereas leukocyturia largely occurred in skin allergies. At the same time the high incidence of allergic reactions was revealed in children with metabolic nephropathies. A relationship was established between the signs of atopy with graver varieties of nephropathies. The presence of the common pathogenetic components in the development of allergic and renal pathology requires the inclusion of immunologic and nephrologic methods into the complex of those patients' examination and the consideration of those factors in the treatment policy. |
