  • Title: Clinical value of the renal protein clearance determination.
    Author: Renner E, Heinecke G, Lange H.
    Journal: Contrib Nephrol; 1975; 1():134-42. PubMed ID: 1235086.
    Abstract:
    The clinical applicability of the determiniation of selectivity in proteinuria in the traditional way is limited. The methodological apparatus has to be relatively completed to get predicative results. Simplified procedures, e.g. determination according to two proteins only, have not proven to be useful in our hands. Screening tests such as disc electrophoresis have to precede the determinations. In special clinical problems, e.g. the question of steroid sensitiveness in morphological forms of glomerulonephritis, which supposedly do not respond to steroids according to the results of prospective studies, or as a parameter in observing the follow up of a disease, protein clearances may be a valuable diagnostic help.
