Immunopathogenesis of idiopathic nephrotic syndrome.
Idiopathic nephrotic syndrome is the most frequent glomerular disease in children. The mechanisms underlying its pathophysiology have been investigated by genetic, cellular and molecular approaches. While genetic analyses have provided new insights into disease pathogenesis through the discovery of several podocyte genes mutated in distinct forms of inherited nephrotic syndrome, the molecular b...
متن کاملIdiopathic nephrotic syndrome in Iranian children.
Of 231 children with nephrotic syndrome, 87% were steroid sensitive and 13% steroid resistant. Of patients with steroid sensitive nephrotic syndrome, 38.8% were non-relapsers, 34.8% frequent relapsers and 26.4% infrequent relapsers. Among those with steroid resistant nephrotic syndrome, 37.5% had focal segmental glomerulosclerosis with a high mortality rate of 44%
متن کاملPathophysiology of oedema in idiopathic nephrotic syndrome.
The decrease in plasma protein and colloid osmotic pressure (COP) in the nephrotic syndrome is accompanied by a decrease in tissue-fluid protein and COP. The latter protects against a fall in blood volume. However, the range and speed of this protective mechanism are limited, and a decrease in blood volume can be expected if plasma COP is below approximately 10 mmHg, or (temporarily) if the pro...
متن کاملMicroRNAs in idiopathic childhood nephrotic syndrome.
Childhood nephrotic syndrome (NS) is associated with an increase in the permeability across the glomerular filtration barrier due to processes that affect the dynamics and permselectivity of the glomerular filtration barrier. This increased permeability leads to an inability to restrict the loss of protein to 100 mg/m body surface per day (1 ). The incidence of idiopathic NS has been reported t...
متن کاملCorticosteroid-induced cataracts in idiopathic nephrotic syndrome.
Th incidence and severity of posterior subcapsular cataracts were studied in 58 children with steroid-sensitive nephrotic syndrome. Eight (14%) children had cataracts. Visual acuity was normal in all but one child. There was no relationship between total dose or mean daily dose of prednisolone (corrected for body surface area) and cataract formation. Alternate-day treatment with prednisolone fo...
