summary

My husband always yells about lumbago these days, but he is not very tired at work these days. He thinks that it will be better after a night's rest. But the next day, the situation becomes more and more serious. I accompany him to the hospital for examination, saying that it is nephrotic syndrome. Today, let me share with you what is nephrotic syndrome.

What is nephrotic syndrome

First: nephrotic syndrome is a series of symptoms caused by kidney infection. The main manifestations are high edema, hypoproteinemia, and some are accompanied by hyperlipidemia and hypertension. The mechanism of lipid metabolism disorder in nephrotic syndrome is not very clear. It is generally believed that the long-term loss of protein in the kidney can promote the synthesis of albumin in the liver and stimulate the production of lipoprotein at the same time.

The second group is caused by a variety of clinical manifestations, such as hypoalbuminemia and hypercholesterolemia. Nephrotic syndrome can be divided into primary nephrotic syndrome and secondary nephrotic syndrome.

Third: primary nephrotic syndrome can be divided into three types: simple nephropathy, nephritic nephropathy and congenital nephropathy. Simple nephropathy is the most common in children, accounting for more than 80% of nephrotic syndrome in children. The onset age of this type is 2-7 years old, and the prognosis is good.
