“…The results o f our follow-up studies are in accordance with several others reported by different investigators [1][2][3][4][5]10,17] (table 3). The incidence of clinical and labora tory features at the onset of the disease in these studies was similar to ours.…”

The prognosis of acute poststreptococcal glomerulonephritis (APSGN) is still a matter of considerable debate. In an attempt to elucidate this controversy, the medium-term prognosis was evaluated in 40 patients 5–9 years after the onset of the disease, and the long-term prognosis in 88 patients 10–17 years after the onset of the disease. All were sporadic cases. In the medium-term follow-up study, abnormalities were revealed in 5.0% (2/40) of the patients. Hypertension and proteinuria were the only abnormalities detected. In the long-term follow-up study, abnormalities were revealed in 6.8% (6/88) of the patients. Hypertension was found in 3.4, proteinuria in 2.3, and microhaematuria in 2.3% of the patients. In both studies, all patients had normal creatinine clearance. We conclude that the medium-and long-term outcome of patients with APSGN is excellent.

“…It was generally agreed that the prognosis o f acute poststreptococcal glomerulonephritis (A P SG N ) was good, and very few patients, if any, were recorded to progress to chronic renal failure [1][2][3][4][5]. However, con troversial data were reported concerning the long-term outcome o f patients with A P S G N .…”

“…but none have described an association with proteinuria. Indeed, review of the literature is remarkable for the paucity of reports concerning the ESR in renal diseases other than in cases of acute glomerulonephritis [19]. There are reports of increased ESR in membranous glomerulopathy [20] and in focal glomerulosclerosis [21], but no attempt has been made to correlate the ESR with other clinical variables in these studies.…”

Erythrocyte Sedimentation Rate in Glomerular Disease: Association with Urinary Protein

The erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR) correlated significantly with the total urinary protein (TUP) in 24-hour urine collections in patients with glomerular disease (p < 0.05 to p < 0.001). The relationship was linear for all patients with a glomerular process but no longer held true once the patients were treated with immunosuppressives, or when the underlying disease excluded the glomerulus. The association between ESR and TUP was generally of the magnitude ESR = TUP X 10. ESR was not correlated with creatinine clearance.

“…Recent follow-up studies indicate that post-streptococcal nephritis in children rarely fails to heal, and renal biopsy specimens obtained from those patients with persistent disease activity usually show evidence of more serious renal disease (Edelmann et al, 1964;Lieberman and Donnell, 1965;Perlman et al, 1965). In the older literature patients diag-no7ed as having "acute nephritis" at onset and showing continued urinary abnormalities were regarded as having passed "chronic latent" phase (Addis, 1925(Addis, , 1948Bell, 1938 (Lagrue et al, 1967a).…”

Summary: The clinical, laboratory, and histological findings of 50 patients with membranoproliferative glomerulonephritis are described. Three-quarters of the patients, who were mostly older children and young adults, presented clinically with a mixture of "nephritic" and "nephrotic" symptoms; the remaining quarter had no symptoms and were diagnosed after the discovery of proteinuria and microscopic haematuria.
