This approach, however, is dependent on individual experience and not suitable for the routine workup of a large number of patients.[clinchem.aaccjnls.org]
It is associated with good long-term prognosis. [3, 4 , 5] Accompanying findings in patients with glomerular damage may include the following (see Workup ): Active urine sediment - Dysmorphic red blood cells and red cell casts Hypoalbuminemia Lipiduria[emedicine.medscape.com]

Positive assay for Epstein-Barr virus (EBV), marked hyperferritinemia, hypofibrinogenemia, hypertriglyceridemia, elevated anti-nuclear antibody, proteinuria, and decreased circulating NK cells by flow cytometry were compatible with the diagnosis of HLH[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
At the end of the study, 5 cases were lost to follow-up in the treatment group and 1 in the control group. Finally, the statistical data included 103 cases in the treatment group and 36 cases in the control group.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
However, since both adverse events may preclude the continuation of treatment, their earlier management may be required.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
After 5.5 years of fairly good tolerance of the treatment, proteinuria and painful crural ulcerations appeared.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Urinary protein excretion and renal function will be observed for 24 weeks after the treatment of LDL apheresis.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
To study the response of lupus nephritis (LN) patients with persistent proteinuria ( 1 g/day after 6 months corticosteroid and single immunosuppressant treatment, or 3 g/day after 3 months of corticosteroid and single immunosuppressant treatment) to corticosteroid[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Although various types of treatment for diabetes, hypertension and dyslipidemia have improved prognosis and quality of life in patients with diabetic nephropathy, there still exist some diabetic patients with severe proteinuria showing poor prognosis.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
The study was designed to analyze prognosis of patients receiving liver transplantation as well as to determine predictive performance of perioperative proteinuria.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
For diabetic patients, distinguishing nondiabetic renal disease (NDRD) from diabetic nephropathy (DN) is important in choosing treatment modalities and determining renal prognosis.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Mitochondrial nephropathy has a poor prognosis and often progresses to the end-stage renal disease. Renal pathology often is focal segmental glomerulosclerosis (FSGS) and does not respond to steroid therapy or immunosuppressive therapy.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
While biomarkers of kidney damage increase during paraquat-induced acute kidney injury (AKI), significant concurrent proteinuria may alter diagnostic thresholds for diagnosis and prognosis to an unknown extent.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
The aim of this study was to evaluate prevalence, etiology, and outcome of proteinuria during the follow-up of children with renal transplantation.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Protein losses of over 2000mg/24 hours in adults and over 40 mg/24 hours in children usually indicates a glomerular etiology. Preeclampsia (toxemia of pregnancy) causes massive loss of protein in the urine.[rnceus.com]
Practically all categories in the chapter could be designated 'not otherwise specified', 'unknown etiology' or 'transient'.[icd10data.com]
Etiology Causes can be categorized by mechanism. The most common causes of proteinuria are glomerular disorders, typically manifesting as nephrotic syndrome (see Table: Causes of Proteinuria ).[msdmanuals.com]
GFR was estimated with the Chronic Kidney Disease Epidemiology Collaboration equation based on serum creatinine, and RHF was defined as GFR 95th percentile adjusted for sex, age, body size, and diabetes and/or hypertension medication.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Risk factors for CVD were hypertension, diabetes mellitus, dyslipidaemia and the metabolic syndrome. eGFR was evaluated using the Chronic Kidney Disease Epidemiology Collaboration equation.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

This volume provides a comprehensive overview of the renal handling of albumin – from basic mechanisms to the pathophysiology of proteinuric diseases.[books.google.ro]
However, the pathophysiology of these associations is debated. In chronic kidney disease (CKD), phosphate retention participates in cardiovascular events and increased cardiovascular mortality.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Future studies are needed to better understand the pathophysiologic mechanisms underlying these associations.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
There are three different pathophysiological mechanisms that may lead to proteinuria: damage to the glomeruli (glomerular), damage to the tubules (tubular), or overproduction of low-molecular-weight proteins (overflow).[amboss.com]
The pathophysiologic mechanisms of proteinuria can be classified as glomerular, tubular or overflow ( Table 2 7 ) .[aafp.org]
