  • Title: [Lipoid nephrosis: changes in proteinemia and albuminemia after resolution of proteinuria].
    Author: Bensman A, Vanille V, Feldmann D, Sinnassamy P, Brackman D.
    Journal: Ann Pediatr (Paris); 1989 Mar; 36(3):208-10. PubMed ID: 2729843.
    Abstract:
    Changes in serum protein and albumin levels following resolution of proteinuria were studied in 67 children with nephrosis. These two parameters returned to normal only after the 21st day, i.e. well after the natriuretic crisis and resolution of edema. Our results are consistent with recent studies showing that the fluid and electrolyte changes seen in the urine at resolution of the proteinuria (increased diuresis and natriuresis) are not due to a return to normal of serum protein and albumin levels. They probably reflect correction of an intrarenal abnormality whose mechanism is unclear.
