C3 glomerulopathy is highly prevalent in French Polynesia.

Objective: To compare the natural history of C3 glomerulopathy (C3G) to acute post-infectious glomerulonephritis (APIGN) in a cohort of patients with a relative homogeneity of environment conditions and genetic background.

Methods: We retrospectively reviewed the characteristics of all patients with biopsy proven C3G or APIGN referred in 2013-2019 to the only renal unit in French Polynesia.

Results: Point prevalence of C3G is ∼23 cases per 100,000 inhabitants.

Short- and long-term renal outcomes following severe rhabdomyolysis: a French multicenter retrospective study of 387 patients.

Background: Rhabdomyolysis is a life-threatening disease that can lead to severe hyperkalemia, acute kidney injury (AKI) and hypovolemic shock. The predictive factors of AKI and acute to chronic kidney disease (CKD) transition remain poorly described.

Methods: This multicenter retrospective study enrolled 387 patients with severe rhabdomyolysis (CPK > 5000 U/L).
