Proteinuria


Proteinuria>150mg/24hr
Dipstik Test:



Urine protein:urine creatinine:

>1(+)
False positive: gross hematuria
Normal <0.15
Ratio of 1 correlates with proteinuria of 1g/24hr

Prevalence rates of diabetes in 1980–1998 obtained from National Health Interview Survey (NHIS) data. These data are linearly
extrapolated to obtain prevalent rates for 1978–2030, & estimates are then multiplied by census projections to obtain estimated
numbers of individuals with diabetes for 1978–2030.

May not occur for several years
Often a poor prognostic sign –
strong correlation between
extent of glomerular
involvement and the magnitude
of proteinuria and GFR decline\
Hypertension occurs late
Histology: Hyalinosis in
unscarred areas of the kidney
or in the contralateral normal
kidney

Proteinuria is fairly common

B.J.A., a 56 AA female with a long standing h/o HTN for the past 30
years was in good health until about 8 weeks prior to presentation.
Insidious onset of fatigue; 5 kg lost over a 2 m period. She had a baseline
Cr of 1.6 three m prior.
About a week prior, she was started on Atenolol and HCTZ for recent
difficulty in controlling her BP.
at that time, a Captopril renography was performed after Captopril 25 mg
was given - Study was negative.
Over the course of the next week, her symptoms of fatigue worsened and
she was admitted to DGH with progressively worsening SOB, 3-4 pillow
orthopnea, and 2 episodes of syncope.
