We once again attended the 16th Conference on Pediatric Nephrology with International Participation, held on September 18–19, 2026, in Horný Smokovec (Slovak Republic). Several of our colleagues presented joint research resulting from an excellent, long-standing collaboration with Professor Ľudmila Podracká. Professor Peter Celec presented findings on sex-related differences in plasma and urine DNase activity and their significance; Associate Professor Michal Pastorek discussed neutrophil activation during post-septic complications in pediatric patients; and, last but not least, Doctor Alexandra Gaál Kovalčíková presented on “inflammation in motion” – specifically, the dynamics of extracellular DNA and markers of neutrophil extracellular trap (NET) formation in experimental models of chronic kidney disease.
