to confirm and extend previous observations of enhanced linear growth in children with chronic renal disease being treated with 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin-d3 and to characterize further the calcium , phosphorus , magnesium , and zinc disorders in renal failure , 11 children ( mean age 8 +/- 5 years ) with chronic renal insufficiency ( glomerular filtration rate 18 % +/- 13 % of normal ) were evaluated on the basis of their reciprocal serum creatinine concentrations , height-velocity curves , mineral balances , and radiologic findings .
