In addition, we prospectively analyzed glomerular and tubular function of all long-term surviving children who received an HSCT between 1998 and 2000 (study II, n=41). We found a lower prevalence of children with chronic renal failure (CRF) post-HSCT in our more recent cohort (study II: 10%) as compared to the older cohort (study I: 24%) 5.0 (0.7 s.d.) and 7.6 (2.4 s.d.) year's post-HSCT, respectively. Furthermore, it seems that renal function may stabilize after 1-year post-HSCT. None of the patients required dialysis or antihypertensive medication at long-term follow-up. The sole predictor of CRF in our study was high serum creatinine pre-HSCT (P=0.007), while acute renal failure within 3 months after HSCT (P=0.08) only showed a trend towards predicting CRF. We could not confirm a relation of conditioning with irradiation with CRF post-HSCT, as was shown in several other pediatric and adult studies. Proximal and distal tubular dysfunction only occurred in a minority of long-time survivors of HSCT (3-12 and 9-13%, respectively) and had no clinical consequences.","address":"","school":"","issn":"0268-3369","doi":"10.1038\/sj.bmt.1705110","isi":"","pubmed":"16044134","key":"Kist-vanHolthe2005","howpublished":"","urllink":"","refid":"39","weight":"39"} ] } ; ajaxResultsLoaded(_ajax_res);
