ABSTRACT:

Acute glomerular inflammation results from a preceding infection with nephritogenic strains of streptococci. The prevention of further complications is essential, the background and treatment method of adults and specifically children, due to its prevalence in that age, is reviewed. We performed narrative review of all relevant papers found through searches of Medline, Embase and Science Direct published in English language through 2018. Acute proliferative glomerulonephritis (post-streptococcal glomerulonephritisis) is caused by an infection with streptococcus microorganisms, normally three weeks after infection, normally of the pharynx or the skin, given the time needed to increase antibodies and complement proteins. The infection triggers blood vessels in the kidneys to establish inflammation; this hampers the renal organs capacity to filter urine. Acute proliferative glomerulonephritis most generally takes place in youngsters.
