Abstract

The mortality rate for severe sepsis and septic shock remains high. Additionally, this life-threatening state poses serious difficulties for the treatment of patients. Unfortunately, the mechanism of sepsis is complex and not well understood. In this paper, we present the case of a 2.5-year-old female with septic shock treated with plasma exchange (PE) as a nonstandard therapy. We analysed the medical history of disease, including patient data, physical examination, laboratory tests and treatment. Unexpectedly, we achieved clinical improvement after the first PE. During PE, the dose of catecholamine was reduced. In addition, the level of C-reactive protein seemed to be a better predictor of the efficacy of PE in septic shock compared to procalcitonin. We conclude that PE may improve the survival rate for patients with septic shock. These data could be useful in the search and introduction of new or alternative methods of treatment for critically ill children.

Abstract

Clinically detectable diabetic nephropathy (DN) begins with the development of microalbuminuria (MA). However, early renal dysfunction may be overlooked despite using that method. On the other hand, the gold standard in DN detection-that is, renal biopsy-is highly invasive. The aim of this study was to evaluate the level of neutrophil-gelatinase-associated lipocalin (NGAL) and interleukin (IL)-18 and their relations to albumin excretion rate (AER) in children with normal-range albuminuria, e.g. in those considered as not presenting diabetic nephropathy. The study group consisted of 22 children (age 12.7 +/- 3.5 years) with type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM). Long-term glycemic control was assessed on hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) levels (8.52 +/- 1.78%). All patients presented normal estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) (141 +/- 23 ml/min/1.73 m(2)) and normal urinary albumin excretion (13.09 +/- 7.63 mg/24 h). Fourteen healthy children served as a control group. Children with T1DM showed increased NGAL values with respect to controls-interestingly, both in serum (sNGAL) (867.43 +/- 341.98 vs. 655.29 +/- 196.17 ng/ml; p = 0.04) and in urine (uNGAL) (420.04 +/- 374.16 vs. 156.53 +/- 185.18 ng/ml, p = 0.04). IL-18 levels were not different in both groups both in serum (58.52 +/- 20.11 vs. 69.79 +/- 58.76 ng/ml; NS) and in urine (14.53 +/- 12.74 vs. 14.60 +/- 10.92 ng/ml; NS). Despite the relatively small study group, the positive correlation between sNGAL and AER was found [AER (mg/24 h) = 3.1893 + 0.01141 x sNGAL (ng/ml); r = 0.51; p = 0.014] as well as between uNGAL and AER [AER (mg/24 h) = 8.7538 + 0.01032 x uNGAL (ng/ml); r = 0.51; p = 0.016]. No relationship between sNGAL and uNGAL, and GFR and HbA1c were found. Normal-range albuminuria does not exclude diabetic nephropathy defined as increased sNGAL and uNGAL concentration. NGAL measurement can be more sensitive than MA and may become a useful tool for evaluating renal involvement in diabetic children.

Abstract

Erratum to: Pediatr NephrolDOI 10.1007/s00467-010-1443-zIt has come to our attention that the reported NGAL levelsare 10-fold higher than those reported by other researchers.This is best seen from the normal values reported inTable 1. Inaccurate data is due to a decimal mistake. Allreported serum and urine values for NGAL have to bedivided by 10.
