Metabolic Syndrome in IgA Glomerulonephritis
BACKGROUND/AIMS Metabolic syndrome (MetS) may have an independent impact on the development of chronic kidney disease. This study examines the prevalence of MetS in subjects with IgA glomerulonephritis (IgAGN) and its impact on disease progression in a retrospective fashion. PATIENTS AND METHODS Altogether, 174 subjects (104 males) were examined 11 years (first visit) after IgAGN diagnosis an...
متن کاملO-glycosylated IgA rheumatoid factor induces IgA deposits and glomerulonephritis.
Structural aberrations of O-linked glycans present in the IgA1 hinge region are associated with IgA nephropathy, but their contribution to its pathogenesis remains incompletely understood. In this study, mice implanted with hybridoma secreting 6-19 IgA anti-IgG2a rheumatoid factor, but not 46-42 IgA rheumatoid factor bearing the same IgA allotype, developed mesangial deposits consisting of IgA,...
متن کاملNon-IgA mesangioproliferative glomerulonephritis: a benign entity?
BACKGROUND Non-IgA mesangioproliferative glomerulonephritis is a well recognized but less studied entity. The clinical manifestations, treatment response and long-term outcome have not been clearly defined. METHODS This single-centre study included patients with biopsy-proven non-IgA mesangioproliferative glomerulonephritis who had been on regular follow-up for >3 years. Their clinical featur...
متن کاملStaphylococcus infection-associated glomerulonephritis mimicking IgA nephropathy.
The association of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) infection with glomerulonephritis (GN) has been well documented in Japan but not in North America. Recently, eight renal biopsies with IgA-predominant or -codominant GN from eight patients with underlying staphylococcal infection, but without endocarditis, were observed at a single institution in a 12-mo period. Renal biopsie...
متن کاملClinicopathologic Features of IgA-Dominant Postinfectious Glomerulonephritis
BACKGROUND IgA-dominant acute postinfectious glomerulonephritis (APIGN) is a recently recognized morphologic variant of APIGN, but its clinicopathologic features were not clearly characterized. We will present demographic, clinical and renal biopsy findings from seven patients with IgA-dominant APIGN with a literature review. METHODS All renal biopsy specimens (n=1,119) processed by the Depar...
