Methods Charts of children with a diagnosis of chronic renal insufficiency (CR1) established prior to 1 year of age were reviewed. Attempts were made to include all infants with CR1 seen at the University of Minnesota Hospitals during the period 1968 to 1980, but because the analysis was retrospective, some pa-tients, especially those with less severe disease, may have been overlooked. Patients were identified by reviewing hospital records with a discharge diagnosis of renal failure or renal insufficiency, as well as records from the Divisions of Pediatric Nephrology, Urology, and Transplant Surgery for this period. For the purposes of this review, hypotonia was judged to be present in patients when the neurological exam revealed a decreased resistance to passive movement. Development was assessed using the Denver Developmental Screen and either the Bayley Scales of Infant Development or the Stanford-Binet Intelligence Scale. A symptom or sign was considered to be present from the time it was first documented in the patient's chart.
