Effectiveness and Safety of Rehabilitation for Pediatric Patients with Nephrotic Syndrome in the Acute Phase: A Case Study.

Background: Exercise therapy for patients with pediatric nephrotic syndrome is necessary to improve physical function to maintain the patient's activities of daily life and school life while managing the risk of relapse; however, few studies have examined exercise therapy in the acute phase of the syndrome. This case study aimed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of exercise therapy in a patient with acute pediatric nephrotic syndrome being treated with steroids.

Case: The patient was a 10-year-old boy diagnosed with primary nephrotic syndrome.
