Abstract:
In 10 healthy and 27 diabetic children aged 11--17 years plasma renin activity was determined in horizontal position (PRA-I) and after stimulation by furosemid and upright position (PRA-II). In diabetic children with or without hypertension and protein-uria, and a normal or only slightly elevated plasma creatinine level normal PRA-I and PRA-II values were found.
