What causes proteinuria? In many cases, proteinuria is caused by relatively benign (non-cancerous) or temporary medical conditions. These include dehydration, inflammation and low blood pressure. Intense exercise or activity, emotional stress, aspirin therapy and exposure to cold can also trigger proteinuria.
What is massive proteinuria?
It is specifically defined by the presence of heavy proteinuria (protein excretion greater than 3.5 g/24 hours), hypoalbuminemia (less than 3.5 g/dL), and peripheral edema. Hyperlipidemia and thrombotic disease are also frequently observed.
What are the three major categories of the causes of proteinuria?
Proteinuria can be divided into three categories: transient (intermittent), orthostatic (related to sitting/standing or lying down), and persistent (always present).
