2009, Seminars in NephrologyCitation Excerpt :In the former study, 20 of 23 infants showed an encephalopathy characterized by developmental delay, microcephaly, hypotonia, seizures, and dyskinesia.68 All of this occurred in the setting of a uremic milieu and during a critical period of brain development that persists through the initial 6 to 12 months of life and that typically is associated with 50% of postnatal brain growth.71 Subsequent recognition of the crucial role that aluminum exposure and malnutrition played in this scenario and the resultant introduction of improved dialysis water purification techniques, the avoidance of aluminum-containing phosphate binders, and the aggressive use of supplemental feeding methods has led to improved neurodevelopmental outcomes overall.
