title: [The prognostic significance of factors predisposing to the occurrence of pyelonephritis].
abstract: With the purpose of studying factors which might be pathogenetically interrelated with predisposition to pyelonephritis and used in clinical settings for diagnosis, the authors analyzed 275 records of pediatric patients having been examined in an in-patient facility for pyelonephritis. Clinical records of 106 children free from uronephrologic pathology were used as a comparison group. The examination was done by clinical, laboratory and biochemical, immunologic, functional and roentgenoradiologic techniques, as well as by making use of a medicogenetic approach. The analysis done allowed identification of both eliminable and uneliminable risk factors for pyelonephritis in the children, with the assessment-prognostic table having been provided for giving prognosis of risk of pyelonephritis development in children in each particular case, to be used in clinical settings.
