Background: Bangladesh Rural Advancement Committee (BRAC), a leading non-governmental organization (NGO), implemented a large-scale Home Fortification (HF) with Micronutrient Powder (MNP) programme from 2013 to 2018 aimed to reduce undernutrition and iron deficiency anemia among children aged below 5 years old.

Background: IgA nephropathy (IgAN) exhibits an unpredictable trajectory, creating difficulties in prognostication, monitoring, treatment, and research planning. This study provides a comprehensive depiction of the progression of kidney function throughout the disease course, from diagnosis to a span of 36 years post-diagnosis.
Methods: We utilized a cohort of 400 Norwegian IgAN patients, from diagnosis to the occurrence of death, initiation of kidney replacement therapy (KRT), or the latest follow-up.
