FIELD: medicine.;SUBSTANCE: method involves assessing biologically significant values in the children with primary nephrotic syndrome with intact renal function; that is ensured by measuring urine IL-18 by solid-phase enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. If the derived value falls within the range of 74.7 to 540 pg per 1 mg of creatinine, nephrotic syndrome with minimal changes in the children is diagnosed.;EFFECT: quick differential diagnosis of nephrotic syndrome with minimal changes and other morphological forms of glomerulopathy enables the immediate therapeutic prescription of the preparations more effective than prednisolone, eg cyclosporine A.;2 ex
