syndrome (SDNS), 16.7% (n13) had steroid-sensitive nephrotic syndrome (SSNS), 14.1% (n11) had systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) nephritis, and 3.8% (n3) had steroid-resistant nephrotic syndrome (SRNS).Among the patients with GN, only 30% (n21) had undergone a renal biopsy.The mean estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) at presentation was 129 mL/min/1.73m2(SDAE29.5).Body mass index (BMI) measures demonstrated that 73% (n57) have a normal BMI, 15.4% (n12) are obese and 11.53% (n9) are underweight.The following table summarizes the demographic and clinical characteristics of the paediatric-to-adult nephrology transition service.Conclusions: This study provides the first description of a patient population attending a nephrology transition clinic in Sri Lanka.The age of referral for transition care varied markedly from 13 -31 years with the predominant disease entity being glomerulonephritis.15.4% (n12) were obese indicating side effects of long-term steroid therapy.Understanding these characteristics is crucial to ensure a smooth and effective transition for young patients in the country.I have no potential conflict of interest to disclose.I did not use generative AI and AI-assisted technologies in the writing process.
