Clinical, Histologic, and Serological Predictors of Renal Function Loss in Lupus Nephritis
Arthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.Objective Kidney survival is the ultimate goal in lupus nephritis (LN) management, but long‐term predictors remain inadequately studied, requiring long‐term follow‐up. This study aimed to identify baseline and early longitudinal predictors of kidney survival in the Accelerating Medicines Partnership LN longitudinal cohort.
