Question

What are the reasons for high blood pressure in nephrotic syndrome?

Answer

Nephrotic syndrome is a disease caused by increased permeability of the glomerular basement membrane, leading to protein loss in the blood and the development of pathophysiological conditions. Its main characteristics include massive proteinuria, severe edema, hyperlipidemia, and hypoalbuminemia. Treatment involves not only symptomatic treatment for proteinuria but also the repair of kidney pathological damage, thereby naturally restoring protein levels and preventing progression to renal insufficiency or uremia.
