A circadian rhythm of proteinuria in patients with a nephrotic syndrome. 1985

M G Koopman, and R T Krediet, and F J Zuyderhoudt, and E A De Moor, and L Arisz

Circadian variations in proteinuria were studied in 17 patients with different types of glomerulopathies. During 3-4 successive days urine was collected over periods of 3 h under standardized conditions. Thirteen of the 17 patients showed a circadian rhythm of their proteinuria with a maximum excretion in daytime around 16.00 hours and a minimum excretion at night around 03.00 hours. In the majority of patients the urinary excretory rhythms of albumin, transferrin and immunoglobulin G were 'in phase' with each other and with the circadian rhythm of total protein excretion. Nine patients had a larger degree of rhythmicity for immunoglobulin G than for transferrin excretion. In eight of them a circadian rhythm of the selectivity index of proteinuria was seen with the lowest index at night. No relation was observed between the circadian rhythm of proteinuria and the type of glomerulopathy.

D009404 Nephrotic Syndrome A condition characterized by severe PROTEINURIA, greater than 3.5 g/day in an average adult. The substantial loss of protein in the urine results in complications such as HYPOPROTEINEMIA; generalized EDEMA; HYPERTENSION; and HYPERLIPIDEMIAS. Diseases associated with nephrotic syndrome generally cause chronic kidney dysfunction.
