Abstract

Role of intrauterine growth retardation and low birth weight as risk factors of arterial hypertension and chronic kidney disease are discussed. It is shown, that low birth weight and reduced nephron number may contribute to end-stage renal failure prevalence and enhance progression of several chronic kidney diseases
