Immunoglobulin A nephropathy (IgAN) is the most common glomerulonephritis in the world. The etiology is unknown but a dysregulated T-cell immune response to viral, bacterial, and food antigens activating mucosal plasma cells to produce polymeric IgA has been proposed. No serological test exists to diagnosis IgAN.

ABSTRACT Membranous nephropathy is a glomerulopathy, which main affected target is the podocyte, and has consequences on the glomerular basement membrane. It is more common in adults, especially over 50 years of age. The clinical presentation is nephrotic syndrome, but many cases can evolve with asymptomatic non-nephrotic proteinuria.

The Crystalline Nephropathies [PDF]
Crystalline nephropathies are a unique form of kidney disease characterized by the histologic finding of intrarenal crystal deposition. The intrinsic nature of some molecules and ions combined with a favorable tubular fluid physiology leads to crystal precipitation and deposition within the tubular lumens.

Normal-weight central obesity: implications for diabetes mellitus
BackgroundCurrent guidelines for obesity prevention and control focus on body mass index (BMI) and rarely address central obesity. Few studies have been conducted on the association between normal-weight central obesity and the risk of diabetes mellitus (

Preeclamptic nephropathy [PDF]
ABSTRACTWith the recent discovery of potential serum ‘toxins’ in human preeclampsia, it is timely to consider how these might relate to preeclamptic nephropathy. This review will discuss the clinical presentation of preeclampsia with an emphasis on renal involvement. It will explore the nature of the renal histological changes including endothelial and
