Abstract Background Acute pyelonephritis (AN) which is commonly brought about by the vesicoureteral reflux (VUR) has for decades been a fatal kidney disease mostly affecting the children and it is associated with the metabolic acidosis. All of the past studies which has been carried out have suggested that metabolic acidosis major cause is NH4CL supplement common in food, and they hinder clearance of UPEC (Urapathogenic E. coli) in the refluxing mouse exemplary. Objective The major aim was to examine the clinical, microbiological, and epidemiological features of cPN and the involved prognosis with a group of patients suffering from the infection. Patients and Methods a prospective examination was carried out in which 1325 consecutive clients below the age of 14 and having been diagnosed with cPN. The analysis of major demographic, clinical and microbiological data, there was evidence of association with links to mortality in univariate analysis in which they were encompassed in the multi-variate logistic regression model. Results The results obtained exhibited that Escherichia coli was the major causative agent accounting for nearly half of all the infections. The results obtained after the analysis will be used to treat children across Iraq mostly below the age of ten and suffering from the acute pyelonephritis. Conclusion This draws a conclusion that hindered clearance of UPEC-UTI cannot be simplified by an impact on the urine acidification other urothelial hindrance function. As the metabolic stress linked acidosis hinder the UPEC clearance, the corrective mechanism of acidosis can prevent renal injury linked to pyelonephritis.
