Therefore, any increase in urine excretion of these proteins suggests tubular disease.<span class="elsevierStyleSup">20,21</span> Another renal function marker is microalbuminuria, an established early marker of glomerular damage, although a small fraction filtered by the glomerulus is later reabsorbed in the proximal tubule.<span class="elsevierStyleSup">20,22,23</span> Several studies show an association between UTI, albuminuria and scintigraphic lesion, which implies a glomerular-interstitial interaction in the pyelonephritis inflammation.<span class="elsevierStyleSup">4,12,19</span> It has also been shown that in complex glomerular lesions, there is usually urinary loss of proteins of greater molecular weight than albumin, such as IgG.<span class="elsevierStyleSup">20</span></p><p class="elsevierStylePara">The main aim of this study was to assess the use of certain markers such as ß2 microglobulin, α1 microglobulin, cystatin C, IgG and albumin in the localization of a child’s first urinary infection, in relation to urinary excretory function clinical and laboratory parameters and renal scintigraphic findings.</p><p class="elsevierStylePara"><span class="elsevierStyleBold">PATIENTS AND METHODS</span></p><p class="elsevierStylePara">A prospective study was carried out between July 2006 and July 2007. An analysis of the urinary excretion of ß2 microglobulin, α1 microglobulin, cystatin C, IgG and albumin was carried out together with DMSA scintagraphy in 40 patients (one month to 11 years) who had been admitted to hospital with UTI and suspicion of acute pyelonephritis They presented with an increase in acute phase reactants (CRP > 20mg/l), fever (Temp > 38.5º C) and/or general malaise with no evidence of other bacterial infection. The average age was five months (2.5-9.8 months) and weight 7.4 kg (5.5-8.7kg). Seventeen (42.5%) were male and 23 (57.5%) female.</p><p class="elsevierStylePara">The acceptance criteria were: a) nursing infants under three months with suspected UTI; b) nursing infants under one year with feverish UTI; and c) feverish UTI at any age, with malaise, vomiting, dehydration and/or an unfavourable home environment. The exclusion criteria were the following: 1) alteration in kidney function with decreased GFR, according to the normal values described in the literature; 2) malnutrition; 3) massive albuminuria (albumin/Cr > 1,000mg/g); 4) patients under one month and those diagnosed with intrauterine growth retardation at birth (standard deviation of < 2); and 5) history or findings of kidney and/or nephrourologic disease: CAKUT (<span class="elsevierStyleItalic">«congenital anomalies of the kidney and urinary tract»</span>), UTI or urolithiasis.<span class="elsevierStyleSup">9,16-20,24-30</span></p><p class="elsevierStylePara">The highest temperature and the duration of the symptoms were recorded. A blood culture on admission, as well as a full blood count (FBC), C-Reactive Protein (CRP) and Creatinine (Cr) were measured. Glomerular Filtration Rate (GBR) was calculated using the Schwartz formula.<span class="elsevierStyleSup">31</span> At the on-call physician’s discretion, additional tests were performed to rule out other sources of bacterial infection.</p><p class="elsevierStylePara">Urine samples for the UTI diagnosis in the infants without voluntary bladder control were taken via bladder catheterisation. Clean-catch midstream urine collection was used for the remainder. The samples were immediately laced in culture without bacteriostatics. UTI was diagnosed if there was pyuria (> 10 leukocytes per field in centrifuged urine), together with the isolation of bacteria in the urine culture of > 10,000CFU/ml for catheter samples and >100,000CFU/ml for midstream urine.</p><p class="elsevierStylePara">Written consent was obtained from parents or carers for the additional tests. Approval from the hospital Ethics Committee was also obtained.</p><p class="elsevierStylePara"><span class="elsevierStyleBold">DIAGNOSTIC IMAGING</span></p><p class="elsevierStylePara">A renal ultrasonography was performed on all of the patients with confirmed UTI on admission and a DMSA renal scintigraphy scan after the acute phase, two to seven days after UTI diagnosis using a Philips Sky device with double head, low power collimator and high resolution. The patients did not require sedation. In the scintigraphic study analysis, each kidney was divided into three segments (upper pole, middle section and lower pole). The acute pyelonephritis was defined by the presence of focal or diffuse areas of less definition showing no signs of cortical loss.<span class="elsevierStyleSup">4,32</span></p><p class="elsevierStylePara">A repeat scintagraphy was performed 6-12 months after the acute episode in those who had an abnormal scan initially.Renal scarring was defined by less definition associated with loss of renal contours or cortical thinning with volume decrease.<span class="elsevierStyleSup">4,32</span> A Voiding Cystourethrogram (VCUG) was performed in recurrent episodes of UTI during monitoring.</p><p class="elsevierStylePara"><span class="elsevierStyleBold">RENAL FUNCTION MARKERS</span></p><p class="elsevierStylePara">Once the patient’s temperature had fallen following intravenous antibiotic therapy in the first 48-72 hours, the overnight urine was discarded to avoid functional proteinuria interference.<span class="elsevierStyleSup">8,9,12</span> A second urine sample was taken for the measurement of protein, creatinine and pH. The samples were analysed immediately to avoid protein breakdown by proteolytic enzymes and bacterial cathepsins ensuring the stable conditions described in the analysis of the diverse proteins. <span class="elsevierStyleSup">16-18,33-35 </span>After the acute stage, the urinary markers of kidney function were during follow-up.</p><p class="elsevierStylePara">Urine pH was determined by reactive strip (Urifelt S<span class="elsevierStyleSup">®</span>), measured by reflectance in an automated Meranini Aution Max™ urine chemistry analyser (A. Meranini Diagnosis, Italy). A Hitachi 917 (Roche, Germany) analyser determined the Cr in urine, using the kinetic Jaffé method; the Cr in blood with a modified enzymatic reaction according to Trinder; the total proteins through turbidimetry using benzethonium chloride and the albumin through turbidimetric immunoassay with polyclonal antibodies. The average IgG, α1 microglobulin and ß2 microglobulin were determined through immunonephelometry with an automatic BN ProSpec analyser (Dade Behring, Marburg, Germany). Lastly, cystatin C was measured using the same nephelometer with the N Latex Cystatin C Kit (Dade Behring).</p><p class="elsevierStylePara">To correct for differences in urine flow, the protein/creatinine urinary ratio was determined for the different proteins, given its good correlation with the 24 hour urine measurements and compared with the published reference ranges; protein/Cr (<442mg/g between six months and two years; <222mg/g in children over two), albumin/Cr (34[27-54]mg/g between one and twelve months; < 35mg/g in over twelve month olds), IgG/Cr (8.8[8-11.5]mg/g), α1 microglobulin/Cr (<14mg/g), ß2 microglobulin (<0.4mg/L), ß2 microglobulin/Cr (<0.36mg/g), cystatin C (0.03-0.3mg/l) and cystatin C/Cr (<0.35mg/g).<span class="elsevierStyleSup">16-18,20,24-26,35,36</span></p><p class="elsevierStylePara">The percentage of albuminuria and the ratio of albumin toα1 microglobulin and ß2 microglobulin were also measured.

The albumin/ß2 microglobulin ratio is approximately 30-200 in normal urine, 1,000-15,000 in glomerular proteinuria and < 300 in tubular proteinuria. An albumin/α1 microglobulin ratio of <17 or >160 distinguishes between tubular or glomerular involvement, respectively. Mixed glomerularinterstitial kidney malfunction was considered at albumin and α1 microglobulin values of 20-40mg/g Cr and 14-30mg/g Cr, respectively.<span class="elsevierStyleSup">11,19,20,37</span></p><p class="elsevierStylePara">The control group for the urinary markers of renal fuction consisted of 20 healthy infants and children.

Nine patients (23%) had recurrent episodes of urinary tract infection during the study period. A VCUG was performed in these patients. Three were diagnosed with low grade (I-III) Vesicourethral Reflux (VUR), according to the classification of the international reflux study in infants and children, but there was no association between the DMSA changes and the presence of reflux in the VCUG. The only case of grade III VUR corresponded to an older girl suffering from voiding disorder that improved after specific treatment.</p><p class="elsevierStylePara">Subsequent renal scintigraphy was performed on 17 patients during the study period.

We did not corroborate the findings of studies showing a link between UTI, albuminuria and the scintigraphic lesion accompanied by concealed tubular lesion markers.<span class="elsevierStyleSup">4,9,12,13,15,17,24,33,34</span> Nevertheless, and despite their high sensibility, some LMWP such as α1 microglobulin excretion may be increased in glomerular proteinuria, characteristically associated with urinary loss of proteins with greater molecular weight, such as albumin or IgG.<span class="elsevierStyleSup">9,10,20</span> In this connection, we did not demonstrate the superiority of cystatin C, produced and secreted shortly after a synthesis through all the nucleated cells in a constant way over other markers of renal function.<span class="elsevierStyleSup">35,39-41</span></p><p class="elsevierStylePara">This lack of correlation in our analysis could be only be explained by the small number of patients studied, given the reliability of the UTI diagnosis and the meticulous handling of the samples to assure protein stability and the tight entry criteria to avoid confounding factors, amongst others functional, overflow immaturity-related proteinuria. However, work carried out in a similar number of subjects did show a link between the urinary excretion of α1 microglobulin and albumin with APN although the latter was not confirmed with scintigraphy in the acute phase in all the cases.<span class="elsevierStyleSup">4,13,15</span> Other investigators did not find differences in the urinary excretion of some LMWP, such as α1 microglobulin and ß2 microglobulin, in patients with fever of non-renal origin as compared with those with suspected APN.<span class="elsevierStyleSup">8</span></p><p class="elsevierStylePara">Nonetheless we have shown an association between white blood cell count, serum CRP and a relationship involving renal abnormality that have not been previously reported.<span class="elsevierStyleSup">4,32 </span>As in other studies, renal ultrasonography failed to detect any abnormality and like the clinical parameters such as the maximum temperature reached and the duration of the symptoms was not useful in the localization of the UTI.<span class="elsevierStyleSup">4,32,42</span></p><p class="elsevierStylePara">DMSA scintigraphy during the acute stage is currently considered the most sensitive method for the diagnosis of APN.<span class="elsevierStyleSup">5-7,42</span> Some authors consider its clinical usefulness doubtful in this period, while others support its use in infants < 2 years of age with febrile UTI. It has also been suggested that a normal scintigraphic scan in the acute phase could replace the cystography in the initial investigation, based on the fact that it would exclude a clinically significant VUR. If the scintigraphy is normal, the probability of scarring is very low, even if there is VUR and infections recur. Therefore, in the opinion of a number of authors, no other imaging study is needed.<span class="elsevierStyleSup">42-45</span></p><p class="elsevierStylePara">In this study, acute lesions were found in only 45% of the patients with clinical criteria of APN, who had no symptoms or signs of other source of bacterial infection. This contrasts with the higher percentage of other series and could be related to technical difficulties in obtaining a specimen without sedation in infants and children that made up the majority of the of the population.<span class="elsevierStyleSup">4,46</span> However, despite reported greater predisposition of infants under one to have renal lesions in UTI, some studies show a higher incidence of scintigraphic lesions in older patients, with no relationship between age and renal damage in infants and children with APN.<span class="elsevierStyleSup">46,47</span> In this sense, this study shows a positive correlation between age and scintigraphic pathology, although the majority of the patients were under one.</p><p class="elsevierStylePara">Normalisation of the urinary secretion of the different proteins studied after treating the infection was confirmed in every patient as described by others.<span class="elsevierStyleSup">4,15,19</span> This also occurred in patients with evidence of renal scars in the DMSA performed at a later stage, contrary to the reported relationship between microalbuminuria and reduction of renal parenchyma by pyelonephritic scarring, even in cases with normal GFR.<span class="elsevierStyleSup">20,22,23</span></p><p class="elsevierStylePara">On the other hand, the existence of VUR in the VCUG showed no correlation with the presence of acute scintigraphic lesions, renal scars or renal function parameters, data confirmed in studies with broader series.<span class="elsevierStyleSup">32,46,48</span></p><p class="elsevierStylePara">We can conclude that the DMSA renal scintigraphy in the acute phase remains the investigation of choice for the paediatric diagnosis of APN. Its sensitivity was not increased by using it in combination with renal function markers Further studies are needed to evaluate the alledged superiority of cystatin C in comparison to other parameters, and the use of new biomarkers, currently under investigation such as KIM-1, NGAL, NHE3, IL-6, IL-8, IL-18, Cyr61, actin, α-GST and π-GST.</p><p class="elsevierStylePara"><span class="elsevierStyleBold">Acknowledgements</span></p><p class="elsevierStylePara">To Dr D.

Pacientes y métodos: estudio observacional prospectivo realizado en 40 pacientes de un mes a 11 años de edad tras su ingreso hospitalario por sospecha de pielonefritis.

Affectation in gammagraphic studies is considered the “gold standard” for the diagnosis of acute pyelonephritis. Several studies with biomarkers have been made with controverted results. The objective of this study is to set the utility of beta2-microglobuline, alfa1-microglobuline, Cistatine C, IgG and albumin in the location of the infection, through the analysis of the relation among their urinary excretion, clinical and laboratory parameters and the renal scintigraphy findings. Patients and methods: Prospective observational study made in 40 patients, aged from 1 month to 11 years, after their Hospital admission with suspicion for acute pyelonephritis. Exclusion criteria were: decrease in the glomerular filtration rate, malnutrition, massive albuminuria and history or findings of nephrourologic disease. Clinical and laboratory variables were analyzed, and renal ultrasonography and scintigraphy were performed within the first seven days after admission. Once the fever dropped, the urinary creatinine-protein ratio was analyzed. After the acute process, a renal scintigraphy was performed in order to detect renal scars. The non-parametric Mann-Whitney U test has been used as the statistical hypothesis test, and Chi-square and Fisher´s exact tests have been used to compare the qualitative variables. Results: The glomerular filtration rate, as well as the ultrasonography scan, was normal in all patients. 45% of the children (24/80 kidneys) had scintigraphic alterations that were compatible with acute pyelonephritis, and there were not differencies in proteinuria between these and those with normal scintigraphy. To greater age greater probability of scintigraphic affectation. The sensitivity and specificity of leukocytes and CRP to predict pyelonephritis were 77-65% and 94-52%, r = 0.70 (CI 95% 0.54-0.87) y 0.75 (CI 95% 0.60-0.90) respectively. An apparent relation between the maximum temperature or duration of the symptoms and the renal affectation does not exist. In all the children, the normality of urinary markers of renal function was confirmed once the acute phase had passed, even in those 3 patients with renal scars (7.5%). Conclusions: Renal scintigraphy is still being the reference pattern for the diagnosis of acute pyelonephritis in Pediatrics. The combined use of different urinary markers of renal function does not increase its sensitivity. It is necessary to do research in order to confirm the utility of new biomarkers.</p>" ] ] "multimedia" => array:2 [ 0 => array:8 [ "identificador" => "fig1" "etiqueta" => "Tab. 1" "tipo" => "MULTIMEDIAFIGURA" "mostrarFloat" => true "mostrarDisplay" => false "copyright" => "Elsevier España" "figura" => array:1 [ 0 => array:4 [ "imagen" => "20618078_t1_p166.jpg" "Alto" => 447 "Ancho" => 402 "Tamanyo" => 33939 ] ] "descripcion" => array:1 [ "en" => "Clinical and laboratory data according scintigraphic findings" ] ] 1 => array:8 [ "identificador" => "fig2" "etiqueta" => "Tab. 2" "tipo" => "MULTIMEDIAFIGURA" "mostrarFloat" => true "mostrarDisplay" => false "copyright" => "Elsevier España" "figura" => array:1 [ 0 => array:4 [ "imagen" => "20618078_t2_p167.jpg" "Alto" => 452 "Ancho" => 827 "Tamanyo" => 60347 ] ] "descripcion" => array:1 [ "en" => "Renal function markers according to scintigraphic findings" ] ] ] "bibliografia" => array:2 [ "titulo" => "Bibliography" "seccion" => array:1 [ 0 => array:1 [ "bibliografiaReferencia" => array:48 [ 0 => array:3 [ "identificador" => "bib1" "etiqueta" => "1" "referencia" => array:1 [ 0 => array:3 [ "referenciaCompleta" => "Espinosa Román L.
