Overview
Multiple risk factors may be involved in the nephrotic syndrome, such as family history, gender, and obesity. Also, diseases such as Hodgkin lymphoma, leukemia, viral diseases; and medications such as lithium, D-penicillamine can be risk factors for developing different types of nephrotic syndromes.
Risk factors
Risk factors of nephrotic syndrome depend on the type of syndromes, as below:
Common risk factors
Risk factors of development of minimal change disease include:[1]
- Children within the Age >1 year but <8 years
- Hodgkin lymphoma
- Leukemia
- Recent viral illness
- Toxins such as mercury, gold, bee stings, fire coral exposure.
- Medication such as[2]
- Salazopyrin
- Tiopronin
- Lithium
- D-penicillamine
- Tyrosine-kinase inhibitor
The following are considered risk factors for the development of focal segmental glomerulosclerosis (FSGS):[3]
- Male gender
- Black race
- Family history
- Heroin abuse
- Drugs known to be associated with FSGS
- Chronic viral infection
- Single kidney status
- Obesity
