Correct answer: C. Marked proteinuria
- A. Persistent ketonuria
- B. Severe bilirubinuria
- C. Marked proteinuria
- D. Profound hypoglycemia
Explanation
Glomerular amyloid disrupts the filtration barrier and commonly produces heavy protein loss in urine. This may progress to hypoalbuminemia and edema, but bilirubinuria, ketonuria, and hypoglycemia are not its typical primary effects.
