Prenatal Risk Factors for Congenital Anomalies of the Kidney and Urinary Tract

Abstract: OBJECTIVE: Congenital anomalies of the kidney and urinary tract (CAKUT) are the leading cause of chronic renal disease in childhood. Abnormal intrauterine conditions as well as genetic disorders play role in CAKUT development. We evaluated antenatal factors in CAKUT. MATERIAL and METHODS:The study and control groups included 140 CAKUT cases and 140 children without urinary malformation, respectively. Both groups were compared for antenatal (gestational period, prematurity, oligohydramios, preeclampsia, gestati… Show more

“…Forest plot of relative risk (RR) of congenital abnormalities of the kidney and the urinary tract (CAKUT) among (a) gestational diabetes and (b) pre-existing diabetes. Fourteen studies 5,[24][25][26][27][28][29][30][31][32][33][34][35][36][37] that compare CAKUT in offspring of mothers with gestational diabetes (a) and 17 studies 5,13,15,38,[40][41][42][43][44][45][46] of mothers with pre-existing diabetes (b), to CAKUT in mothers with no diabetes are summarized here. This study supports the pathophysiology of CAKUT in the context of hyperglycaemia studied in animal models, which suggests that maternal hyperglycaemia adversely effects kidney development of the fetus.…”
