Article Synopsis
- Urinary screening for 3-year-olds was assessed over 30 years to determine its effectiveness in detecting congenital anomalies of the kidney and urinary tract (CAKUT).
- Among 218,831 children screened, various positive rates for different urinary issues were noted, leading to the identification of multiple cases of chronic kidney disease (CKD) and glomerular diseases.
- The study suggests that initial urine dipstick tests complemented by follow-up renal ultrasonography can improve detection rates for serious kidney conditions in young children.
