To assess the relative risk of treating all patients with the nephrotic syndrome with prednisolone as against making a complete diagnosis by all necessary means including renal biopsy, a retrospective study of patients with nephrotic syndrome was undertaken. It was shown that the risk of indiscriminate steroid therapy was more than 12 times greater than that of selective biopsy. It is recommended that the diagnosis of the cause of the nephrotic syndrome must always be established before embarking on therapy.
为评估用泼尼松龙治疗所有肾病综合征患者相对于通过包括肾活检在内的所有必要手段进行全面诊断的相对风险，对肾病综合征患者进行了一项回顾性研究。结果表明，不加区分地使用类固醇疗法的风险比选择性活检的风险大12倍以上。建议在开始治疗前必须始终明确肾病综合征的病因诊断。
