  • Title: Acquired free protein S deficiency in children with steroid resistant nephrosis.
    Author: Hanevold CD, Lazarchick J, Constantin MA, Hiott KL, Orak JK.
    Journal: Ann Clin Lab Sci; 1996; 26(3):279-82. PubMed ID: 8726222.
    Abstract:
    Plasma and urine concentrations of protein S were measured in five children with steroid-resistant nephrotic syndrome. It was found that plasma free protein S was reduced in three out of the five patients studied. Thus, acquired free protein S deficiency does occur in children with nephrotic syndrome and is one of many factors which may place them at risk for a thromboembolic event.
