An assessment of renal function by neutrophil lipocalin and cystatin C in obese adolescents with or without obesity-induced hypertension

Introduction: Obesity and hypertension are associated with organ complications, including kidney diseases. It is necessary to search for the methods of early detection these complications. Aim: The aim study was assess renal function in obese adolescents, based on lipocalin-2 cystatin C levels relation creatinine, estimated glomerular filtration rate leptin levels. Materials methods: included 76 children aged 11–17 years, obesity or obesity- induced normosthenic tension headaches (control group). Renal assessed serum creatinine (Schwartz equation). Plasma urine lipocalin-2, were determined by ELISA. Results: level normal all patients, but mean significantly higher lower groups compared controls. No significant differences found plasma Mean group. We have a weak positive correlation between its negative rate, as well Conclusion: role assessment adolescents without obesity-induced ambiguous. relationship also requires further research.
