Now we are going to explain the relevant symptoms of nephrotic syndrome to everyone. Due to the increased permeability of the glomerular filtration membrane, a large amount of plasma protein is lost in urine, leading to our nephrotic syndrome. Moreover, what are the characteristics of our nephrotic syndrome? So now, let's move on to our main explanation on symptoms.
Primary nephrotic syndrome is more common in children and adolescents. The ratio of males to females is approximately 2:1.
1、 There is concave edema, particularly on the face, lower limbs, and scrotum, often accompanied by ascites. The overall condition is generally good, and there is no hypertension.
2、 Urinary insufficiency, quantitative>0.1g/(kg · d), occasional small amount of red blood cells detected by uroscopy.
3、 The total plasma protein is lower than normal, and the decrease in albumin is more significant (<30g/L). Serum protein electrophoresis shows a decrease in albumin ratio, an increase in globulin ratio, and a decrease in r globulin ratio. Blood cholesterol significantly increased (>5.7mmol/L), and serum complement levels were normal. Congenital nephrotic syndrome is rare and often a recessive inherited disease. It often occurs in the neonatal period and within three months after birth, and its manifestations are similar to simple kidney disease.
We may think that simply understanding the symptoms of one of our diseases has no effect on the treatment of our condition, but we are precisely wrong. Our understanding of the symptoms of nephrotic syndrome is very necessary. Understanding the symptoms can be very necessary for our medical treatment, such as during examinations, and we can easily determine whether the patient has nephrotic syndrome.
