Lipid abnormalities in renal disease
TL;DR: A 32-year-old white man developed swelling of his feet and ankles and facial swelling in the mornings and was treated with sodium restriction and diuretics for his edema, and prednisone, 120 mg every other day, for longer than 3 months; the proteinuria did not abate.

Adult–onset minimal change nephrotic syndrome: A long–term follow–up
TL;DR: A series of 89 adult-onset nephrotic patients with minimal changes on renal biopsy was analyzed to compare the rate of response to corticosteroids and cytotoxic agents and the stability of remission or frequency of relapses at different ages.
Journal ArticleDOI
The effect of indomethacin on proteinuria and kidney function in the nephrotic syndrome.
TL;DR: It is proposed that the therapeutic effect of indomethacin in nephrotic syndrome is caused by its inhibiting action on renal prostaglandin synthesis, thereby potentiating the effect of the renin-angiotensin system on the kidney.
Journal ArticleDOI
Observations on edema formation in the nephrotic syndrome in adults with minimal lesions.
TL;DR: Ten adult patients with the nephrotic syndrome and minimal lesions on renal biopsy were studied while receiving a salt poor diet before and after 13 prednisone-induced remissions, lending no support to the conventional concept that hypovolemia is the main factor responsible for the maintenance of edema in this condition.
