Introduction: Megaloblasc anemia is an uncommon problem in childhood most frequently associated with vitamin deficiency or gastrointesnal disease. The common causes of megaloblasc anemia are vitamin B12 (cobalamin) deficiency and folic acid deficiency. Familial selecve malabsorpon of vitamin B12 associated with proteinuria firstly was described by Imerslund (1960) and Grasbeck et al (1960)...

 ABSTRACT Background: In this study our purpose was to determine whether 8 and/or 12 hour urine total protein values correlate with the 24 hour value to confirm the diagnosis of pre-eclampsia. Methods: The study population included 70 inpatients with hypertensive disorders of pregnancy. Patient's urine was collected over 24 hours with the first 8 hours, next 4 hours, and remaining 12 hours in s...

It is generally accepted that one-year post-transplant proteinuria over 0.5 gm per day has a negative impact on renal graft survival. In this study, the effects of minimal proteinuria less than 0.5 g/day were analyzed in 272 renal recipients who had survived for one year with a functioning graft. Recipients were classified by one-year post-transplant proteinuria: no proteinuria group (<0.2 g/da...

Proteinuria is a major determinant of adverse renal outcome, and its reduction slows renal progression in glomerular diseases. However, the optimal target of proteinuria in glomerular diseases is unclear, and discrepancies in the definition of proteinuria produce ambiguous findings. Here we investigated the optimal target of proteinuria by using different definitions of proteinuria. We analyzed...

BACKGROUND Whether changes in proteinuria are associated with incident stroke in the general population is unclear. This study aimed to investigate the association between changes in proteinuria and incident stroke and its subtypes. METHODS AND RESULTS The current study included 60 940 Chinese participants (mean age, 50.69 years) who were free of stroke at the time of surveys (2006-2007 and 2...

isolated hematuria and its association with proteinuria, and urinary cast and systemic lupus erythematosus (sle) disease activity, and decision for renal biopsy is a dilemma for physician in sle patients. the aim of this study was to investigate 1. whether isolated hematuria is associated with active sle, 2. to determine duration between hematuria and proteinuria and urinary cast, and 3. to det...

BACKGROUND ACE inhibition exerts an antiproteinuric and renoprotective effect. However, residual proteinuria is often present. As residual proteinuria is associated with a poor renal outcome, identification of its determinants is important. We found previously that the systemic sequelae of proteinuria enhance renal damage in untreated nephrotic rats. The impact of systemic nephrosis on renal th...
