EPIDEMIOLOGY OF TUBULOINTERSTITIAL NEPHRITIS IN CHILDREN IN THE REPUBLIC OF BELARUS
The purpose of the study is to determine the epidemiology of tubulointerstitial nephritis in children in the Republic of Belarus compared to other urogenital diseases (2001-2011). Methods: probabilistic statistical. Results. As for morbidity in children urogenital diseases rank 8th. Their contribution to children's morbidity is 0.9% and disease incidence - 1.5%. Among urogenital diseases tubulointerstitial nephritis takes the first place, glomerulonephritis - the second place, and urolithiasis - the third place. Among urogenital diseases tubulointerstitial nephritis makes up 12.3% of primary morbidity and 27.7% - of total morbidity. Primary and total morbidity rate of children with acute and chronic tubulointerstitial nephritis did not change during the given period of time (р>0,05). Conclusions. The main results can be used in practical nephrology.
