RESUMO
Objective To investigate the clinical implication value of using Doppler ultrasound to detect renal hemodynamic changes in children with Henoch-Schonlein purpura.Methods Color Doppler ultrasound was used to detect renal hemodynamic changes of main renal arteries and intedobar renal arteries and arcs renal arteries in 40 cases of Henoch-Schonlein purpura,whose urine routine,microalbuminuria were also tested,and 32 healthy children served as control group.Results Maximum crest flow rate (Vmax) during systole,minimum crest flow rate(Vmin) during diastole and resistance index(RI) of main renal arteries and interlobar renal arteries of children in HSP group were all higher than those of control group,while Vmax,Vmin and RI of arcs renal arteries were almost the same.Color doppler ullrasound showed that 28 cases were abnormal in renal flow,which accounted for 70％.Fourteen cases with abnormality were detected in routine urine and 18 cases in microalbuminutia,which accounted for 35％ and 45％ of total cases respectively.Sensitivity of color doppler ultrasound was higher than microalbuminuria and routine urine,while the sensitivity difference was not statistically different between microall uminuria and routine urine.Conclusions Renal hemodynamics is a sensitive index to find out renal lesion of early stages in children with Henoch-Schonlein purpura.
RESUMO
Henoch-Schonlein prpura(HSP) is systemic vasculitis,which involves multiple body organs.The main lesion is small vascular infammation.Kidney belongs to the organ composed of rich blood vessel,so it is involved easily.It is so difficult to find early slight damage of kidney that the treatment can't be given timely.Kidney biopsy and urine routine test and urine microscale protein detection is the main means of detection.Investigating diagnostic indicators of the early renal damage caused by HSP is critical.
