Minimal change disease (MCD) is a glomerular disease in which many proteins are lost through the kidneys. The prevalence of MCD is higher in children than adults and is the most common cause of nephrotic syndrome in children. The name of this disease has been derived from the fact that the changes in the diseased glomeruli are not visible under a regular microscope. The changes can only be seen under a high-resolution electron microscope. The findings revealed from the renal biopsy under electron microscopy are used to diagnose MCD accurately. Which of the following is a characteristic finding of minimal change disease observed in renal biopsy by electron microscopy?
