    Abstract:
    The author relates the data on the time-course of changes in diurnal proteinuria, diastolic arterial pressure and blood creatinine in 123 patients with primary chronic glomerulonephritis seen during 159 pregnancies. The dependence of the character of those changes on the respective parameters before conception was analyzed as was such a dependence, in part of the patients, on the morphological disease pattern. The rise of proteinuria and diastolic arterial pressure during gestation was seen more often in women with initial diurnal protein losses exceeding 1g and with arterial hypertension that occurred before pregnancy. The rise of blood creatinine before conception was a prognostically unfavourable sign. Mesangiocapillary glomerulonephritis occurring in the gestation period is viewed as less favourable as compared to mesangioproliferative glomerulonephritis.
