• Because the most widely used test for detection of proteinuria is the dipstick test, which is actually a test for albumin, the term proteinuria is used as a surrogate for albuminuria in the remainder of this discussion. (medscape.com)

Symptoms3

• Proteinuria often doesn't cause any symptoms and it may be discovered incidentally. (mdwiki.org)

• Foamy urine is considered a cardinal sign of proteinuria, but only a third of people with foamy urine have proteinuria as the underlying cause. (mdwiki.org)
• The aim of the study was to determine whether the latter can reliably compare to the gold standard and whether "timing" of a spot urine sample is essential (as there is a diurnal and postural effect on protein excretion). (asn-online.org)
• In patients with primary and secondary glomerular diseases spot urine protein to creatinine ratio only modestly correlates with daily proteinuria whether it's morning or random urine sample. (asn-online.org)

Nephrology1

Asymptomatic2

• The dipstick (see urinalysis ) test is the most convenient method for routine testing and is often the test that causes proteinuria to be first identified in an otherwise asymptomatic individual. (medscape.com)

Systolic1

• Postural reduction in SBP or DBP was positively associated with greater systolic and diastolic WCE and systolic and diastolic night-to-day ratio. (bvsalud.org)

Severe2

• RESULTS: Investigating the cause of moderate orthostatic proteinuria in some of them, we found by chance severe typical nutcracker phenomenon (NC), which was present in all 9 children complaining of chronic fatigue. (experts123.com)
• With severe proteinuria, general hypoproteinemia can develop which results in diminished oncotic pressure . (mdwiki.org)

Glomerular1

• Persistent proteinuria is the signal indicator of a glomerular lesion. (medscape.com)

Diabetes4

• People with diabetes may have damaged nephrons and develop proteinuria. (mdwiki.org)
• The most common cause of proteinuria is diabetes, and in any person with proteinuria and diabetes, the cause of the underlying proteinuria should be separated into two categories: diabetic proteinuria versus the field. (mdwiki.org)
• This study in US Veterans with diabetes mellitus and proteinuria demonstrated an association between ACEi/ARB use and lower mortality. (bvsalud.org)
• METHODS: Using data derived from electronic medical records, we sought to estimate the association between ACEi/ARB use after AKI and mortality in US military Veterans with indications for such treatment (diabetes and proteinuria) while accounting for AKI recovery. (bvsalud.org)

Persistent2

• Repeated tests, perhaps up to 3 times over a period of several weeks, should be performed to verify that a single instance of proteinuria is, in fact, persistent. (medscape.com)
• First-voided morning specimens should be used to establish if proteinuria is persistent. (medscape.com)

Hypertension1

• She weighed 297 pounds and her blood pressure was 150/80.1 His diagnoses included hypertension, obesity, status-post CVA, osteoarthritis, and proteinuria. (justia.com)

Significant1

• [ 3 ] However, only 0.1% had positive protein results in all 4 specimens, emphasizing that it is the persistence of proteinuria that is significant, albeit that it is much less frequent than a positive result for the presence of protein if only a single specimen is tested. (medscape.com)

Clinical2

• However, the caveat remains that quantitative estimates of proteinuria performed at clinical chemistry laboratories reflect the sum total of several classes of proteins and yield a result greater than the actual amount of albumin in the specimen. (medscape.com)
• Assessing proteinuria is one of the most important diagnostic tests for a clinical nephrologist. (asn-online.org)

Patients1

• Evaluating the effect of Dapagliflozin on Proteinuria in Type 2 Diabetic Patients. (who.int)

Kidney2

• This discussion focuses on proteinuria in children who appear well and in whom proteinuria is often incidentally discovered during an examination done for reasons other than an evaluation for suspected kidney disease. (medscape.com)
• Proteinuria may be a sign of renal ( kidney ) damage. (mdwiki.org)

Change1

• CONCLUSION: Postural change in BP was associated with WCE and night-to-day-ratio. (bvsalud.org)

Common2

• Proteinuria is relatively common in adults, occurring in about 20% of people. (mdwiki.org)
• The most common presenting neurologic feature is asymmetric tremor, which is variable in character and may be predominantly resting, postural, or kinetic. (medscape.com)

Reduce the severity2

• nephrotic syndrome (to reduce the severity of proteinuria). (bestpharmbuy.com)

(medscape.com)

Pediatric2

• Proteinuria is common in pediatric and adolescent patients. (chikd.org)
• Although treatment should be directed at the underlying cause of the proteinuria, prompt evaluation, diagnosis, and long-term monitoring of these pediatric patients can prevent potential progression of the underlying disease process. (chikd.org)
