Abstract：
:Cardiovascular disease is a major cause of morbidity and mortality in children and young adults with end-stage renal disease. In our study, we retrospectively analyzed the records of 11 patients who had undergone electron beam computerized tomography in our dialysis unit. Our patients, aged 11 to 24 years (median, 19.3 years) were on dialysis or had functioning grafts. Coronary calcification was observed in seven patients (64%) with a mean calcium score of 273.8 +/- 708 (range 0.8 to 1864) in our study population. We compared clinical characteristics like age, gender, duration of end-stage renal disease, time on hemodialysis, body mass index, and blood pressures between the patients with calcifications (group I) and those with out calcification (group II). We also compared the laboratory data including daily calcium and calcitriol intake, lipid profile, serum calcium and phosphorus levels, calcium/phosphorus products, and serum parathyroid hormone levels in the both groups. The mean daily dose of total calcium, triglyceride level, and calcium/phosphorus products were higher in the calcification group though not statistically significant. The mean daily dose of calcitriol was significantly higher in patients with calcification. Using Spearman multivariate correlation, we found a correlation between the coronary calcium scores and mean daily doses of total calcium and calcitriol (r = .750, P =.008 and r = .869, P = .001, respectively). We conclude that coronary calcification, which is a proven predictor of cardiovascular disease, begins at a very early age and that daily doses of elemental calcium and calcitriol seem to be important factors in our study population.

杂志文章abstract：INTRODUCTION:Previous studies of the safety of renal autotransplantation (RAT) have been limited by a lack of evidence. Because of the influence of the opposite kidney, it is difficult to evaluate actual renal function.
