Background: Epidemiologic assessments of anti-glomerular basement membrane (GBM) disease have been challenging due to its rare occurrence. We examined changes in the incidence and outcomes from 1998 to 2018 using nationwide healthcare registries.
Methods: All patients with incident anti-GBM disease were identified using the International Classification of Diseases, 10th Revision code DM31.
Background: Patients with stage 5 chronic kidney disease (CKD5) collaborate with their clinicians when choosing their future treatment modality. Most elderly patients with CKD5 may only have two treatment options: dialysis or conservative kidney management (CKM). The objective of this systematic review was to investigate whether CKM offers a quantity or quality of life benefit compared to dialysis for some patients with CKD5.

We examined temporal changes in incidence and mortality during 2000-15 using nationwide healthcare registries.
Methods: Patients with incident AAV were identified using International Classification of Diseases Version 10 (ICD10) codes and grouped according to inclusion year (Period 1: 2000-04, Period 2: 2005-09, Period 3: 2010-15).
Objectives: This study aimed to characterize the association between HLA alleles and ANCA-associated vasculitis (AAV) in a genetically homogeneous population, and to analyse the contribution of specific HLA molecule amino acid sequences to the risk of AAV.
Methods: We included 187 Danish patients with AAV and 1070 healthy controls. All were HLA typed at two-field resolution.
