Reversible nephrotic range proteinuria with renal artery stenosis: a clinical example of renin-associated proteinuria.

abstract：:Chronic renal failure induces anemia and a short erythrocyte life span. Red blood cell (RBC) osmotic fragility is the resistance of RBC hemolysis to osmotic changes that is used to evaluate RBC friability. To find the cause of shortened red cell survival in uremic patients, we evaluated the RBC osmotic fragility in 57...
