Persistent urinary podocyte loss following preeclampsia may reflect subclinical renal injury.

Persistent urinary podocyte loss following preeclampsia may reflect subclinical renal injury.

Studies have shown that podocyturia, i.e., urinary loss of viable podocytes (glomerular epithelial cells), is associated with proteinuria in preeclampsia.
