Prevalence of Proteinuria and Chronic Kidney Disease in Pediatric HIV-Infected Patients

Completed

Conditions studied: Chronic Kidney Failure, AIDS-Associated Nephropathy, HIV Infections

In brief

Among adults with Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) and Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome (AIDS), Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) has previously been reported to occur in approximately 10% of children with HIV-infection. The frequency of CKD, its causes, and its natural history in children and adolescents with HIV-infection have not been systematically studied, particularly in the era of new anti-retroviral medications. The primary aim of this study is to determine the how common pediatric HIV-infected individuals have evidence of persistent proteinuria and CKD.
