  • Title: The causal role of hypoalbuminemia in human nephrotic hyperlipidemia.
    Author: Rahman M, Salamatullah Q, Ferdous Z, Hussain MA.
    Journal: Bangladesh Med Res Counc Bull; 1976 Jun; 2(1):64-70. PubMed ID: 190998.
    Abstract:
    Serum lipids and their lipoprotein fractions were measured in 16 nephrotic syndrome patients. All component of lipids and beta-lipoprotein fractions (LDL) showed an increase in all uncomplicated patients. The increase in serum lipids were inversely proportional to the albumen level in these patients. In 3 patients, lipids and beta-lipoprotein fractions returned to near normal after treatment, the proteinuria diminished and serum albumen became normal. Most of these patients did not need any treatment for hyperlipidemia.
