FEATURES OF THE GASTRIC AND DUODENAL MUCOSA IN CHILDREN WITH CHRONIC KIDNEY DISEASE

Abstract

The study is devoted to the investigation of the clinical, morphofunctional condition of the gastroduodenal region of the digestive system in children with chronic kidney disease using esophagogastroduodenoscopy, endoscopic basal pH-metry, and a stool test to determine the degree of infection with Helicobacter pylori. The obtained results indicate that the frequency and nature of changes in the mucous membrane of the gastroduodenal region depend on the stage of chronic kidney disease, the functional condition of the kidneys, the severity of the underlying disease, the duration of treatment with glucocorticosteroid drugs, and the degree of infection with Helicobacter pylori
