CLINICAL AND LABORATORY FEATURES OF POST-INFECTIOUS GLOMERULONEPHRITIS IN CHILDREN: DEVELOPMENT OF AN HTML-BASED EDUCATIONAL PROGRAM FOR MEDICAL STUDENTS

Abstract

Post-infectious glomerulonephritis (PIGN) remains a prevalent cause of acute glomerular disease in children, particularly in resource-limited settings. This study examines the clinical and laboratory features of PIGN, focusing on renal function, fibrinogen levels and anemia. Additionally, it introduces an innovative HTML-based program designed to enhance medical students' diagnostic skills by facilitating the interpretation of clinical data. The findings highlight key laboratory markers such as elevated fibrinogen levels, hypocomplementemia, and anemia, emphasizing the need for early detection and management to prevent complications like chronic kidney disease. The study also underscores preventive measures and educational interventions to improve both clinical outcomes and public health awareness.
