摘要: Background. Accumulation of extracellular water (ECW) is a major clinical manifestation nephrotic syndrome (NS) in children. Bioimpedance spectroscopy (BIS) simple, noninvasive technique that reflects body volumes. BIS can further measure cell membrane capacitance (C ), which may be altered NS. The aims the study were to explore how measurements could reflect disease status NS, while avoiding prediction equations are often only validated adult populations. Methods. involved 8 children (2-10 years) with active NS (ANS group), 5 also studied at remission (NSR as well 38 healthy similar age (HC group). determined resistances R , and (reflecting total water, intracellular water) C . Also resistance indices based on height (H) considered, RI = H2/R. Results. It was found significantly lower ANS group than both NSR HC groups (p < 0.05). Conclusion. distinguish from well-treated Studies more warranted.
