New and increasing evidence shows: 1) that the presence of even relatively small increments of protein or albumin in urine is an early sign of kidney injury; 2) persistent proteinuria is associated with loss of kidney function; 3) the magnitude of persistent proteinuria directly correlates to the rate of loss of kidney function; 4) interventional measures that reduce the amount of persistent proteinuria slow the progression of chronic kidney disease; 5) proteinuria is a strong and independent predictor of increased risk for cardiovascular morbidity and mortality, especially in certain high risk groups such as diabetics, hypertensives, the elderly, and those with chronic kidney disease and 6) there is a direct correlation and agreement across the range of proteinuria of death from cardiovascular disease.

General Medical Officer (GMO) Manual: Clinical Section: Urologic/Renal Disorders Proteinuria Department of the Navy Bureau of Medicine and Surgery Peer Review Status: Internally Peer Reviewed (1) Introduction Proteinuria may be the first and only evidence of renal disease. Most healthy persons excrete up to 150 mg of urinary protein daily, which may vary from negative to 2+ on urine dipstick analysis. Although the prevalence of proteinuria on routine screening of healthy individuals has been as high as 3.5 percent, the incidence of renal disease in this population is very low. It is clear that the discovery of proteinuria necessitates a thorough evaluation to separate these healthy individuals from those with significant renal disease. (2) Urinalysis (3) Evaluation Once proteinuria is detected by dipstick, the next step should be to obtain a detailed history, physical exam, and urine microscopy. This includes family history as well as prior evaluations and medications (i.e., NSAIDs). The exam should look for evidence of renal or systemic disease, focusing on blood pressure, pulse, fundi, cardiovascular, skin, abdominal (palpable kidneys or bruits), and the presence or absence of edema. (4) Functional Proteinu ria If no such evidence is found, repeat dipstick analysis should be done two or three times. If these subsequent qualitative tests, in well-concentrated specimens, are negative for protein, the initial proteinuria is transient or functional. Functional proteinuria may be seen in conditions such as high fever, emotional stress, cold exposure, strenuous exercise, infection, and other acute medical illnesses. Idiopathic transient proteinuria is a common cause of proteinuria in young adults, especially men. It is characterized by proteinuria on a routine urinalysis that disappears on repeat testing and is found in asymptomatic, healthy individuals with normal renal function.

There are some infections that can lead to protein in the urine, and in these cases, you may want to be tested for transmissable diseases first. Various kidney diseases can also lead to proteinuria - if that is the case, I am not aware of a connection between worsening of kidney disease and intercourse.

Figure 1 Overview Although the cost of screening the general adult population would be equivalent to the cost of caring for 5 hemodialysis patients for one year, effective nontoxic therapy is not available for most renal diseases detected by dipstick urine testing. Thus, screening is not advocated except in those patients with IDDM. Burden of Suffering Over 3,000 patients are on ESRD programs (dialysis and transplantation) in Canada. An additional 2,000 patients enter dialysis programs every year, an annual increase of 7%.

Perinatal Review - Hypertension in Pregnancy Proteninuria Search for.. Introduction Measurement Proteinuria Definitions Treatement Conclusions Back to Pregnancy Reviews The measurement of proteinuria is no less problematic. The urinary protein excreted in the condition pre-eclampsia arises as a result of glomerula endotheliosis. However, it also indicates a generalised increase in capillary permeability in other organ systems of the body ( ). The presence of significant proteinuria does act as a marker for the severity of the disease pre-eclampsia and patients who suffer from hypertension and proteinuria are at an increased risk of small for gestational age fetuses and perinatal mortality as well as maternal morbidity ( However, all dipstick testing needs to be confirmed with 24 hour urine collections which are currently accepted as the "gold standard" for quantification of urinary protein loss. As we will see later, these too have their problems.

products Proteinuria Proteinuria is an innovative assay designed to classify conditions of proteinuria as either tubular, glomerular, mixed, or overload. Free light chain screening can simultaneously also be performed with this one test. The composition and porosity of this gel allows the separation of proteins according to their molecular weights. The very sensitive staining solution provided with the kit contains acid violet allowing direct analysis of all urinary proteins without requiring concentration of the sample. It is recommended that 24 hour samples be used for this testing. A molecular weight marker is also available to assist in protein identification. To take urine profiling a step further, Sebia offers the Urine Profile Assay which combines an immunofixation process for the identification of monoclonal proteins, including Bence Jones, plus detects the presence of tubular and glomerular protein.
