Glucocorticoids are first-line therapy for children with idiopathic nephrotic syndrome (INS). These children are at risk of deranged bone metabolism and low bone mineral density (BMD). We studied 60 children with INS and divided them into two groups. Group 1 included 21 children (initial and infrequent relapsing) and group 2 included 39 children (frequent relapsing, steroid dependent and steroid resistant). Dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry of the lumbar spine was performed to assess BMD. Mean BMD Z-score was compared in both groups; this correlated significantly on univariate analysis with cumulative steroid dose, serum vitamin D levels and calcium supplementation. However, on multivariate analysis, serum vitamin D level was the only factor significantly predictive of low z-score.
