Nephrology (Carlton)
January 2025
Transplant & Comprehensive Liver Center, Hartford, Connecticut, USA.
Aim: Henoch-Schönlein purpura (HSP) nephritis leads to end-stage renal disease (ESRD) in upto 3% of cases, necessitating kidney transplantation (KT). This study compared graft and patient survival outcomes between HSP and non-HSP KT recipients and identified factors associated with HSP recurrence.
Methods: Data from the Scientific Registry of Transplant Recipients (SRTR) were analysed for adult and paediatric KT patients listed between January 2005 and April 2021.

Gülhane Training and Research Hospital, Rheumatology Department, University of Health Sciences, Ankara, Turkey.
Objective: The objective of this study is to examine the potential of specific parameters in determining renal involvement in adult patients diagnosed with Immunoglobulin A vasculitis (IgAV).
Methods: The patients' records with IgAV meeting the EULAR/PRINTO/PRES classification criteria who were diagnosed between January 2017 and January 2022 were retrospectively reviewed. The Birmingham Vasculitis Activity Score (BVAS) version 3 was used to assess initial disease activity.

Background: The factors influencing diffuse crescentic glomerulonephritis renal survival and prognosis remain uncertain. Additionally, there's no literature on the clinical outcomes of IgA nephropathy, lupus nephritis, and IgA vasculitis nephritis in type II patients.
Methods: This study retrospectively examined 107 patients diagnosed with diffuse crescentic glomerulonephritis through biopsy.

Department of Medical Science and Cardiorenal Medicine, Yokohama City University Graduate School of Medicine, Yokohama, Japan.
A 69-year-old Japanese man developed abdominal pain, purpura, proteinuria, and hematuria while receiving treatment for pulmonary tuberculosis. A skin biopsy revealed IgA-positive leukocytoclastic vasculitis, and a renal biopsy showed IgA-positive mesangial proliferative glomerulonephritis with crescent formation. Based on these findings, we diagnosed IgA vasculitis with nephritis (IgAVN) and initiated treatment.

Objectives: This study aimed to evaluate the safety profile of the recombinant zoster vaccine (RZV) after its marketing in China.
Methods: We present a descriptive analysis and safety signal assessment of adverse events following immunization (AEFI) associated with RZV between September 2020 and December 2023. The descriptive data collected includes demographic characteristics and the classification of characteristics of AEFI cases, while vaccine safety signal assessment was evaluated using the reporting odds ratio (ROR).
