Fibrillary glomerulonephritis presenting as crescentic glomerulonephritis
Fibrillary glomerulonephritis (FGN) is a rare primary glomerular disease that commonly presents clinically with hypertension, proteinuria, microscopic hematuria, and varying degree of renal insufficiency. Histologically, FGN can present with different patterns of glomerular injury, more commonly mesangioproliferative, membranoproliferative, and ...

Retinal drusen are characteristic of macular degeneration and complement activation, but also occur in C3, lupus and IgA nephropathy. This cross-sectional observational study compared drusen counts in different forms of glomerulonephritis.

ABSTRACT Background Japan has one of the highest dialysis prevalence rates worldwide and a shrinking, aging population. Whether dialysis burden has entered a sustained post‐peak phase or whether recent declines partly reflect pandemic‐related disruptions remains uncertain.

Objective Race and household income impact outcomes in patients with rheumatic conditions; however, their role in pediatric antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibody (ANCA)–associated vasculitis (AAV) remains poorly understood. We aimed to evaluate whether race and ethnicity and household income are associated with severe AAV disease and renal outcomes among

Animal models of idiopathic membranous nephropathy: Recent advances and future perspectives
This review focuses on the evolution of idiopathic membranous nephropathy (IMN) animal models from traditional approaches (Heymann nephritis, C‐BSA, APA) to antigen‐specific models (PLA2R, THSD7A), critically evaluating their advances and limitations in replicating human IMN pathology.

Anti-glomerular basement membrane disease: A clinicomorphological study of 16 cases
Introduction: Antiglomerular basement membrane disease manifests as rapidly progressive glomerulonephritis and alveolar hemorrhage. It encompasses 10–15% of crescentic glomerulonephritis and is associated with poor outcome.

Purpose To evaluate the literature regarding the efficacy of various repair and reconstruction surgical techniques for chronic quadriceps tendon ruptures (QTRs) in native knees and to assess their associated outcomes. Methods A comprehensive literature search of the EMBASE, PubMed/MEDLINE, and Cochrane databases was conducted from October 2023 to ...

Membranous nephropathy in a child with crescentic glomerulonephritis: Coincidence or comorbidity?
Rapidly progressive glomerulonephritis (RPGN) is rare syndrome in children, characterized by clinical features of glomerulonephritis and rapid loss of renal function, and is associated with crescentic glomerulonephritis.

Autoimmunity and glomerulonephritis [PDF]
Autoimmunity is now unequivocally regarded as the predominant pathogenic process underlying most forms of primary and secondary glomerulonephritis in humans. Most of the investigations so far have been focused upon humoral mechanisms. Consequently, the role of cell-mediated immunity in nephritis is still incompletely understood.

Objective Eosinophilic granulomatosis with polyangiitis (EGPA) is a small vessel vasculitis characterized by eosinophilia, asthma, and ear, nose, and throat (ENT) involvement. Although glucocorticoids (GCs) are effective in controlling symptoms, relapses and GC dependence are common. The aim of this study was to develop predictive models for vasculitis
