Impact of hemodialysis membrane and permeability on neutrophil transmigration in vitro.

abstract：:A few cases of nephrotic syndrome with the glomerular deposition of an amyloid-like material which did not stain with Congo red have been documented. But extrarenal deposits have not been previously reported in this disease. We describe here a case of nephrotic syndrome associated with the deposition of an amyloid-lik...
