Children with nephrotic syndrome exhibit behavioral issues like hyperactivity and aggression. Maternal anxiety correlates with these problems, suggesting a link between maternal attitude and child behavior.

Area of Science:

  • Pediatric Nephrology
  • Child Psychology
  • Maternal Mental Health

Background:

  • Nephrotic syndrome in children can impact psychosocial well-being.
  • Understanding behavioral challenges and adaptive competences is crucial for comprehensive care.
  • Maternal stress may influence a child's psychological adjustment.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To assess adaptive competences and behavioral problems in children with nephrotic syndrome.
  • To investigate the presence of psychosocial stress in mothers of these children.
  • To explore the relationship between child behavior and maternal anxiety.

Main Methods:

  • Prospective case-control study involving 70 children with nephrotic syndrome and 46 controls (ages 4-14).
  • Child Behavior Checklist (CBCL) used for assessing child behavior and social competences.

  • PGI Health Questionnaire N2 administered to mothers to measure anxiety levels.

    • Main Results:

    • Children with nephrotic syndrome displayed depressed, hyperactive, or aggressive behaviors, alongside somatic complaints and social withdrawal.
    • Behavioral issues did not impede treatment compliance; only 7 patients needed psychological intervention.
    • Boys showed more hyperactivity and aggression than girls; CBCL scores correlated with maternal anxiety.

    Conclusions:

    • A significant number of children with nephrotic syndrome experience minor behavioral problems.
    • The severity of these behavioral issues may be influenced by the mother's attitude towards the child's illness.
    • Early identification and support for both children and mothers are recommended.
