Kidney diseases are the main causative factors of secondary hypertension (HTN) in children. Although primary HTN is less common in the pediatric population, its increasing prevalence, especially among teenagers, makes early diagnosis an emerging issue. To analyze the potential differences between primary HTN and HTN secondary to renal diseases, in order to tailor diagnostic procedures to pediatric patients with suspicion of HTN. A retrospective evaluation was performed of medical records of 168 children (aged from 1 month to 18 years) diagnosed with arterial HTN in the Pediatric Nephrology Department of Wroclaw Medical University (Poland). The comparative analysis concerned demographics, causes of HTN, clinical picture, laboratory tests, and parameters of ambulatory blood pressure monitoring (ABPM). Out of 168 children, 47% were diagnosed with primary HTN and 53% with secondary renal HTN. The patients with primary HTN were significantly older than those with HTN secondary to renal disease. Among the crs. The diagnostics of HTN secondary to kidney disease have revealed risk factors worsening the prognosis, including higher values of cholesterol or of parameters connected with DBP. Primary HTN risk factors include obesity and a tendency towards higher PP values. Novel materials used for dentin hypersensitivity (DH) treatment, including hydroxyapatite-based desensitizers, are not only effective in occluding dentinal tubules, but are also biocompatible and non-toxic. A newly formulated desensitizer containing hydroxyapatite was evaluated in comparison to commercially available desensitizers. To compare the occluding efficacy and durability of 3 commercially available desensitizing agents with
