The causal role of hypoalbuminemia in human nephrotic hyperlipidemia. Bangladesh Medical Research Council Bulletin. 1976 Jun; 2(1): 64-70http://imsear.searo.who.int/handle/123456789/38Bangladesh Medical Research Council Bulletin.Serum lipids and their lipoprotein fractions were measured in 16 nephrotic syndrome patients. All component of lipids and beta-lipoprotein fractions (LDL) showed an increase in all uncomplicated patients. The increase in serum lipids were inversely proportional to the albumen level in these patients. In 3 patients, lipids and beta-lipoprotein fractions returned to near normal after treatment, the proteinuria diminished and serum albumen became normal. Most of these patients did not need any treatment for hyperlipidemia.engAdolescentAdultChildCholesterol --bloodFemaleHumansHyperlipidemias --bloodLipoproteins, HDL --bloodLipoproteins, LDL --bloodMaleMiddle AgedNephrotic Syndrome --bloodPhospholipids --bloodProteinuria --bloodSerum Albumin --analysisTriglycerides --bloodJournal Article
