- Hair content of 32 trace elements was studied in children with chronic pyelonephritis and dysmetabolic nephropathy. Disorders of element balance were characterized by boron, magnesium, selenium deficiency and sodium excess in dysmetabolic nephropathy; these disorders were characterized by cobalt, selenium, chromium, manganese, ferreous, magnesium deficiency and cupreous, sodium, lead excess in chronic pyelonephritis. The alterations of basic and toxic proportions of elements content were determined; they reflected the process of toxic macro- and microelements accumulation under conditions of essential elements deficiency development.
