Description
Summary:steroid resistant nephrotic syndrome and steroid sensitive nephrotic syndrome. Steroid resistant nephrotic syndrome has poorer prognosis than steroid sensitive nephrotic syndrome. Infections are commonly related to relapse and steroid resistance. Urinary tract infection is the most common infection in children with nephrotic syndrome. We are interested to know the relationship between urinary tract infection and steroid resistant nephrotic syndrome. Objectives. Our study aims to determine the relationship between urinary tract infection and steroid resistant nephrotic syndrome. Methods. The study design was case-control comparing steroid resistant and steroid sensitive nephrotic syndrome with risk factor of urinary tract infection. The study was conducted at Dr.Sardjito General Hospital from June 2005 to Desember 2010. Odds ratio was generated. Results. Of 148 children with nephrotic syndrome there are 37(25%) children with urinary tract infection. There are 21 children of steroid resistant nephrotic syndrome who have urinary tract infection and 16 children of steroid sensitive nephrotic syndrome. There is no significant correlation between urinary tract infection in steroid resistant and steroid sensitive nephrotic syndrome OR 1.205 CI 95% (0.56 to 2.56). Conclusion. There is no relationship between urinary tract infection and steroid resistant nephrotic syndrome.
