Minimal change disease & primary FSGS present with fulminant (acute) nephrotic syndrome, while membranous nephropathy and secondary FSGS present with a more insidious and chronic version of nephrotic syndrome.
The ancient Greeks personified gout as podagra, a child of Dionysus (god of wine) and Aphrodite (goddess of love).
Secondary FSGS has an important clinical significance because a variety of renal diseases progress to ESRD through the form of secondary FSGS.

• Progressive decline in the glomerular filtration rate (GFR).

• Elevated arterial blood pressure
