| Abstract |
This prospective study investigated growth and skeletal development for 3 years after kidney transplantation in pediatric patients, 3.4-15.0 years of age. Growth, BMD, bone resorption markers (CTX and TRACP5b), bone formation markers (PINP, ALP, and osteocalcin), PTH, and vitamin D were assessed at start, 3, 12, and 36 months after transplantation. Median GFR was 63 (range 37-96) mL/min/1.73 m2 after 3 years. The median height SDS increased from -1.7 to -1.1, and median BMI SDS increased from -0.1 to 0.6 over 3 years, which shows that transplantation had a favorable outcome on growth. Fat mass increased after transplantation at all time points, whereas lean mass increased after 1 year and 3 years. Total BMC increased at all time points. No changes were observed for total BMD. Bone resorption markers decreased initially after 3 months and remained stable throughout the study, whereas the bone formation markers decreased initially, but successively increased over the study period. In conclusion, this study demonstrates that height SDS and BMI SDS increased, along with the increased formation markers that reveal a positive bone acquisition after kidney transplantation, which was reflected by the significant increase in total body BMC. |

Attention Score in Context
This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 2. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 17 July 2018.
All research outputs
#14,913,615
of 24,458,924 outputs
Outputs from Pediatric Transplantation
#585
of 1,872 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#179,971
of 331,130 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Pediatric Transplantation
#3
of 14 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 24,458,924 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 38th percentile – i.e., 38% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 1,872 research outputs from this source. They receive a mean Attention Score of 2.8. This one has gotten more attention than average, scoring higher than 66% of its peers.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 331,130 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 44th percentile – i.e., 44% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 14 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has done well, scoring higher than 78% of its contemporaries.
