| Age Group | Reference Range | Unit | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Adults (18–64) | 0 – 150 | mg/day | Normal; nephrotic range >3500 mg/day |
Also reported in: g/day.
Common Causes of High 24h Protein
Nephrotic syndrome (>3.5 g/day): minimal change disease, FSGS, membranous nephropathyDiabetic nephropathy (most common cause of proteinuria worldwide)Lupus nephritis (class III, IV, V)
Common Causes of Low 24h Protein
Less than 150 mg/day is normal — minimal filtration leakOrthostatic proteinuria (benign — protein primarily excreted during upright position; daytime sample high, overnight sample normal)
