Renal Diabetes in Children

Renal glucosuria refers to the occurrence of glycosuria when the blood glucose concentration is normal or below the normal renal glucose threshold (patients have normal fasting blood glucose and glucose tolerance). Due to various congenital or acquired reasons (such as familial renal diuresis and various tubular acidosis, etc.), the proximal tubules of the kidney are damaged, resulting in a decrease in the function of renal tubular reabsorption of glucose, and the glomerular filtration rate remains Normally, diabetic patients with diabetic threshold due to lowered renal glucose threshold are clinically divided into primary renal diabetic and secondary renal diabetic. Often accompanied by reabsorption of amino acids, bicarbonates and uric acid. But there are also some people with renal diabetes who can turn into true diabetes.
