A Molecular Signature of Proteinuria in Glomerulonephritis
Proteinuria is the most important predictor of outcome in glomerulonephritis and experimental data suggest that the tubular cell response to proteinuria is an important determinant of progressive fibrosis in the kidney. However, it is unclear whether proteinuria is a marker of disease severity or has a direct effect on tubular cells in the kidneys of patients with glomerulonephritis. Accordingl...
متن کاملThe effect of Helicobacter pylori eradication on proteinuria in patients with primary glomerulonephritis
Background. Membranous nephropathy (MN) is a common cause of nephrotic syndrome. In most cases it is idiopathic, while it may also be secondary to many diseases. In this study, prevalence of H. pylori infection and the effects of H. pylori eradication on proteinuria levels were investigated. Methods. Thirty five patients with MN (19 male), 12 patients with IgA nephropathy (4 male) and 12 patien...
متن کاملProteinuria: From Molecular to Clinical Applications in Glomerulonephritis
Glomerular diseases including diabetic nephropathy are the leading cause of ESRD worldwide. Proteinuria, the hallmark of renal damage in glomerular diseases, is dependent on two main factors: the alteration of the glomerular filtration barrier and its three layers (glomerular endothelial cells, basement membrane, and visceral epithelial cells (podocytes)), and the impairment of proteins reabsor...
متن کاملAdult orthostatic proteinuria
Orthostatic proteinuria is characterized by elevated levels of urinary protein excretion while in the upright or lordotic position and normal excretion when in the supine or recumbent position, such as that during bed rest. This type of proteinuria is the most frequent cause of isolated proteinuria in children and adolescents. In adolescents, the prevalence of orthostatic proteinuria is reporte...
متن کاملPrimary care approach to proteinuria.
Proteinuria is a common finding in primary care practice. Most adolescents who are diagnosed with proteinuria through screening urinalysis do not have renal disease, and the proteinuria will usually resolve on repeat testing. In contrast, proteinuria is suggestive of kidney disease in patients with diabetes mellitus, hypertension, primary renal disease, or other systemic illnesses. Quantificati...
