Two patients with long-standing nephrotic syndrome are described in whom urinary iron losses may have contributed towards an iron deficiency state. Seven other nephrotic patients were also studied. Increased urinary iron excretion was found in six out of nine patients and increased urinary copper excretion in all eight patients in whom it was measured. Trace metal losses in the urine in nephrotics may be important clinically.
本文描述了两名长期患有肾病综合征的患者,其尿铁流失可能导致了缺铁状态。还对其他七名肾病患者进行了研究。在九名患者中的六名发现尿铁排泄增加,在所有八名接受测量的患者中发现尿铜排泄增加。肾病患者尿液中的微量金属流失在临床上可能很重要。
