Cohort study evaluates thyroid dysfunction impact on proteinuria in nephrotic syndrome patients, suggesting early screening for better outcomes.
Thyroid dysfunction is common in PNS and is associated with more severe proteinuria and hypoalbuminemia, though not with specific pathological types. Thyroid autoimmunity was not an independent predictor; however, antibody-positive patients had significantly higher TSH and proteinuria levels. Routine thyroid function and antibody screening are recommended for early intervention in PNS patients.
