  • Title: The renal spectrum.
    Author: Berman LB.
    Journal: Am Fam Physician; 1981 Aug; 24(2):127-33. PubMed ID: 7258076.
    Abstract:
    Renal diseases present with a wide array of symptoms. Cystinuria is likely to appear in childhood. IgA nephropathy is commonly seen in young patients, and may be a problem in the young adult male with recurrent gross hematuria. Lupus erythematosus is more likely to attack females, particularly in young adulthood. Membranous glomerulonephritis, a frequent cause of nephrotic syndrome in older patients, may be a clue to the presence of tumor. Polycystic kidney disease may present over a wide age span, beginning with the fourth decade. End-stage renal disease has a characteristic clinical spectrum regardless of etiology.
