In Senegal, nephrotic syndrome usually occurs upon malnutrition that confers it its specificity and has brought us to establish the proteinic profile of Senegalese children suffering from it, in the aim to improve its treatment. Twenty children on the average of six years, hospitalized for nephrotic syndrome, were chosen. They were compared to 20 healthy children of the same age group, and 20 other children hospitalized for a non-renal inflammatory syndrome. For each subject were dosed total blood proteins and albumin. The protein electrophoresis has permitted to evaluate the alpha-1, alpha-2, beta and gamma globulins. We have observed predominance of boys with a 2.33 sex ratio. Our patients presenting a nephrotic syndrome were about six years old; no case has been noted before two years. Total proteins and albumin have decreased respectively to 52.10 g/l and 16 g/l. This diminishing is essentially linked to the massive urinary escape of plasmatic proteins and would explain partly the increase of lipids. The alpha-1 globulins were equally lowered but the alpha-2 globulins were increased by 40% of total proteins. Beta globulins have decreased, following the evolution of gamma globulins. In Senegal, The early age of nephrotic syndrome occurrence and the biological perturbations of the proteinic profile, recommend global and quick treatment considering food recovery and nutrition. The correction of these parameters being able to constitute in one hand an element of accessible and reliable supervision, and one the other hand the basis of complete treatment.
