Demographics, longitudinal changes and outcome of high blood pressure in children and adolescents on kidney replacement therapy: 15 years of data from the ESPN/ERA Registry

Key takeaways

A 15-year look at 6,071 children and teens on dialysis across Europe found that high blood pressure is very common and tends to get worse over time. Children with higher blood pressure had a greater chance of heart issues or dying earlier. Because this tracked real-world data without testing a treatment, it shows a link — not proof that treating high blood pressure would lower those risks.
