BACKGROUND Sickle cell nephropathy is characterized by proteinuria that starts in childhood and may lead to renal failure. Microalbuminuria is used as a marker of glomerular damage.

was noted only in children whose fever was higher than 38 *4 'C. Selectivity studies on the protein excreted showed patterns ranging from poorly to highly selective.

The pathophysiology of transient proteinuria in ...
