Description
Kajal Patel, Mritunjay Kumar, Swarastra Singh, Gaurav Upadhyaya, and Rashmi Kumari check bone and eye harm in children whose kidney condition is treated with long steroid courses. Their cross-sectional study was published in twenty twenty-six. The syndrome leaks protein into urine and answers steroids, but the drugs themselves can thin bones and cloud eyes.
Fifty children aged one to eighteen, on steroids for over six months, were enrolled at one center over eighteen months. Two-thirds were boys, with a mean age near six. Half had osteopenia, thinned bone, and a small share had full osteoporosis. Longer steroid use tracked with lower bone density. Eye exams and blood tests rounded out the check. The study argues for routine bone and eye watch in these children.
