Abstract :
Introduction: The aim of the study is to compare lipid profile pattern during first episode, remission and relapse of idiopathic nephrotic syndrome in children and establish the relationship among the levels of lipid profile parameters during remission and relapse
Materials and methods: Thirty eight relapse cases and 10 non relapse cases of idiopathic nephrotic syndrome were compared in terms of serum cholesterol, triglycerides, HDL, LDL and VLDL at initial attack, remission, follow up period and relapse.
Results and analysis: High cholesterol, triglyceride and VLDL levels during initial attack as well remission in relapse cases was found to be statistically significant.
Conclusion: Monitoring of lipid profile following remission can predict future relapse.
