title: [Anti-proteinuria effects of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs in patients with nephrotic syndrome: an illusion or a read improvement?].
abstract: In order to examine the antiproteinuric effect of non-steroidal antiinflammatory drugs in patients with nephrotic syndrome, we performed a parallel determination of the daily proteinuria, strength of glomerular filtration and of the effective renal plasmatic flow in basal conditions and after a 7 day ibuprofen therapy at a daily dose of 1200mg (3 x 400mg) in a group of 12 patients with idiopathic glomerulonephritis. In all patients ibuprofen therapy induced a significant decrease of the existing proteinuria, but this decrease was accompanied by the decrease of clearance rate of 99mTc-DTPA and 131J-hipuran clearance, that is by decrease of strength of glomerular filtration (averagely 24.29%) and effective renal plasmatic flow (averagely 18.74%). It can be concluded that the decrease of proteinuria in patients with nephrotic syndrome after ibuprofen therapy (as well as other non-steroidal antiinflammatory drugs) is primarily the result of worsening of hemodynamic conditions in the kidney, that it is caused by the reduction of the renal blood flow and by the strength of glomerular filtration in conditions of cycloxygenetic activity inhibition in the kidney.
