Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

In this Special Issue, we plan to provide a practical source of information about the common topics in a format that is clear to understand and accessible to all health care professionals involved in treating children and adolescents with kidney diseases. We believe that the open access nature of the journal fulfills this mission. We also aim to refine the knowledge base in pediatric nephrology, where significant advances have been made, and highlight improvements in clinical management. The study areas that we aim to cover are glomerular diseases, advances in management of pediatric hypertension, childhood nephrotic syndrome, advances in lupus nephritis, different aspects of chronic kidney disease, advances in different modalities of renal replacement therapy, advances in kidney transplantation, voiding dysfunction in children, renal tubular diseases, and genetics in renal diseases.

We will solicit original research articles, systematic reviews, meta-analyses, and reviews pertaining to these topics. 

Dr. Kiran K. Upadhyay
Guest Editor
