Diagnostic and prognostic significance of proteinuria selectivity index in glomerular diseases.

Original article English Tencer J, Bakoush O, Torffvit O. Department of Nephrology, Lund University Hospital, S-221 85, Lund, Sweden. jan.tencer@njur.lu.se Clin Chim Acta. 2000 Jul;297(1-2):73-83. Abstract The proteinuria selectivity index (SI) describes changes of the glomerular permeability for macromolecules. In the present study, we examine the implications of SI as a diagnostic (199 patients) and …

High proteinuria selectivity index based upon IgM is a strong predictor of poor renal survival in glomerular diseases.

Original article English Bakoush O, Torffvit O, Rippe B, Tencer J. Department of Nephrology, Lund University Hospital, Lund, Sweden. Nephrol Dial Transplant. 2001 Jul;16(7):1357-63. Abstract BACKGROUND: The transport of large proteins across the glomerular capillary wall (GCW) may increase several fold in glomerular diseases. The occurrence of IgM in urine is a consequence of the …

Urine excretion of protein HC in proteinuric glomerular diseases correlates to urine IgG but not to albuminuria.

Original article English Bakoush O, Grubb A, Rippe B, Tencer J. Department of Nephrology, Lund University Hospital, Klinikgatan 18, S-221 85 Lund, Sweden. omran.bakoush@skane.se Kidney Int. 2001 Nov;60(5):1904-9. Abstract BACKGROUND: Proteinuric glomerular diseases often are associated with tubulointerstitial injury, which imposes on the progression of renal failure. Tubular damage is partly referable to toxic effects …

Higher urinary IgM excretion in type 2 diabetic nephropathy compared to type 1 diabetic nephropathy.

Original article English Bakoush O, Tencer J, Tapia J, Rippe B, Torffvit O. Department of Nephrology and Department of Medicine, Lund University Hospital, Lund, Sweden. Omran.Bakoush@skane.se Kidney Int. 2002 Jan;61(1):203-8. Abstract BACKGROUND: Proteinuria, due to impairment of the charge- and/or size selectivity of the glomerular capillary wall (GCW) is the earliest clinical evidence of diabetic …
