Of 74 paediatric inpatients with acute glomerulonephritis, 58 (78%) had a raised (greater than 1/200) antistreptolysin O titre. Serum C3 concentration was low in 73, but returned to normal within six weeks. Streptococcal infection remains the commonest cause of acute nephritis in children in Hong Kong, possibly due to overcrowded living conditions.
在74名急性肾小球肾炎儿科住院患者中，58名（78%）抗链球菌溶血素O滴度升高（大于1/200）。73名患者血清C3浓度降低，但在六周内恢复正常。链球菌感染仍是香港儿童急性肾炎最常见的病因，可能是由于居住环境拥挤所致。
