The diagnosis of nephrotic syndrome relies on clinical presentation and descriptive patterns of injury on kidney biopsies, but not specific to underlying pathobiology. Consequently, there are variable rates of progression and response to therapy within diagnoses. Here, an unbiased transcriptomic-driven approach was used to identify molecular pathways which are shared by subgroups of patients with either minimal change disease (MCD) or focal segmental glomerulosclerosis (FSGS).

- The study investigates the influence of race/ethnicity, socioeconomic status, and disease severity on health-related quality of life (HRQOL) in patients with glomerular disease, focusing on an ethnically diverse cohort.
- Results showed that Black and Hispanic participants experienced worse socioeconomic conditions and more severe disease compared to White or Asian participants, impacting their HRQOL.
- After adjusting for socioeconomic factors and disease severity, the differences in HRQOL among racial groups in adults diminished, while no significant racial/ethnic differences were found in children.

The prevalence and prognostic significance of permeability activity has not been examined in children with idiopathic nephrotic syndrome (INS).
Methods: P alb activity level was determined in sera from 26 children with new-onset INS before the initiation of therapy by using an in vitro assay.
