We present a case of diabetic nephrotic syndrome complicated with cerebral embolism in whom two intracardiac thrombi were found in both right and left ventricles without obvious abnormality echocardiographically. Both thrombi regressed after anticoagulant therapy. This represents an intracardiac thrombotic complication of nephrotic syndrome, presumably with hypercoagulable state as the sole mechanism of intracardiac thrombus formation.

: RAS guanyl-releasing protein 1 (RASGRP1) deficiency is characterized by immune dysregulation and Epstein-Barr virus (EBV)-related lymphoproliferation. Diffuse mesangial sclerosis is one of the infrequent causes of infantile nephrotic syndrome. : Here, we described a 7-year-old girl who was diagnosed with diffuse mesangial sclerosis at 5 months old and subsequently developed chronic bilateral neck swelling at the age of 3 years.

Background: Studies on renal vein thrombosis have been conducted as case reports or case series. The renal outcomes and mortality risk of renal vein thrombosis have not been fully established. We aimed to investigate the clinical characteristics, treatment modalities, and predictors of renal outcomes and mortality in patients with renal vein thrombosis in a large multicenter cohort.

Nephrotic syndrome (NS) and atopic diseases are linked through shared immunological pathways, with allergic triggers often contributing to NS relapses, particularly in immunoglobulin E (IgE)-mediated pathways. Omalizumab, a humanized monoclonal antibody targeting free and cell-bound IgE, is commonly used in treating atopic diseases. We presented a pediatric case with a history of eczema, asthma, and recurrent atopic rhinitis, who first developed NS at age three, responding well to steroid therapy.

Objective: Nephrotic syndrome, a debilitating manifestation of kidney disease, often arises from diverse glomerular disorders and is accompanied by notable comorbidities. Despite indications of an immunological etiology, the precise role of immune cells in its pathogenesis remains unclear. This study aimed to elucidate the causal relationships between circulating immune cell phenotypes and nephrotic syndrome using a rigorous bidirectional Mendelian randomization approach.

Background: In 2013, the British Columbia (BC) Childhood Nephrotic Syndrome Clinical Pathway (CNSCP) was developed to standardize the care of children with nephrotic syndrome (NS). In BC, children access nephrology care at BC Children's Hospital (BCCH) and multiple regional clinics.
Objective: The primary objective was to compare induction therapy and clinical outcomes between BCCH and regional clinics since implementation of the CNSCP.
