Abstract

This thesis focused on nutrition and growth in children with end-stage renal disease (ESRD) in Europe. ESRD in childhood is a rare condition, with a total number of children of 4.4 per million age related population who started renal replacement therapy in 2011. Therefore, in order to conduct sufficiently powered studies aiming at improving outcomes, multi-national collaboration is needed. This is realized within the framework of the ESPN/ERA-EDTA registry. The studies described in this thesis have used data from this registry.
