Recent Progress in Double Filtration Plasmapheresis
ABSTRACT Double‐filtration plasmapheresis is an advanced extracorporeal blood purification technique that selectively removes pathogenic macromolecules based on molecular weight. Unlike conventional plasma exchange, double‐filtration plasmapheresis uses a two‐step filtration process to retain beneficial plasma components such as albumin, while ...

The paradigm of renal involvement in HIV patients has changed in recent years, from HIV‐associated nephropathy to nephroangiosclerosis, due to the increased survival of these patients and their comorbidities. Some of these are leishmaniasis and hepatitis C and their treatments, especially direct‐acting antivirals, which may induce reconstitution of the

The many faces of C3 glomerulopathy [PDF]
To the Editor: The recent article by Sethi et al., ‘Membranoproliferative glomerulonephritis and C3 glomerulopathy: resolving the confusion’, made me revisit a 12-year-old publication. In ‘Apparent progression of acute glomerulonephritis to dense deposit disease’ we described an 8-year-old boy with hypocomplementemia and meningococcemia.

Factor B and C4b2a Autoantibodies in C3 Glomerulopathy
C3 Glomerulopathy (C3G) is a renal disease mediated primarily by dysregulation of the alternative pathway of complement. Complement is the cornerstone of innate immunity.
