Abstract
The erythrocyte sedimentation rates of 185 patients with biopsy proven glomerular disease including 92 patients with clinical nephrotic syndrome and of 210 patients in a control group were reviewed. Patients with nephrotic syndrome were noted to have markedly elevated seimentation rates (x = 67 mm/hr; P< .001) weakly correlating with degree of fall in serum albumin (r = -.45; P < .001). A raised sedimentation rate should therefore be included among the other classical features of the nephrotic syndrome.
