Article Abstract
A comparative analysis of allelic and genotype distribution of polymorphic markers Val762Ala and Leu54Phe of ADPRT1 gene encoding poly(ADP-ribose)polymerase I has been performed in chronic glomerulonephritis patients compared to normal controls. This has shown a significant difference in the ADPRTI gene polymorphic marker Val762Ala allelic and genotype frequency distribution between chronic glomerulonephritis patients and healthy controls (according to Fisher's exact test). At the same time the allelic and genotype frequency for a polymorphic marker Leu54Phe distribution did not show significant difference between these groups. Therefore, we have concluded that the ADPRTI gene polymorphic marker Val762Ala is associated with the development of chronic glomerulonephritis in Russian patients of the Moscow region.

To investigate the short-term efficacy and safety of rituximab (RTX) in children with calcineurin inhibitor (CNI) resistant steroid resistant nephrotic syndrome (SRNS). A retrospective case analysis was conducted. Thirteen children with CNI resistant SRNS who were regularly treated with RTX (375 mg/m per dose (maximum dose 500 mg), 1 dose per week, a total of 4 doses) in Department of Nephrology, Children's Hospital of Fudan University from January 2016 to December 2023 were enrolled.

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.
Glomerular diameter is associated with a reduction in urinary protein by treatment with dapagliflozin in patients with chronic kidney disease.

Background: Several clinical trials showed that sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitors have protective effects against chronic kidney disease (CKD) in both patients with and those without type 2 diabetes mellitus. Since one of the renoprotective mechanisms of SGLT2 inhibitors is thought to be amelioration of glomerular hyperfiltration, we hypothesized that an enlarged glomerular diameter, which suggests increased single-nephron glomerular filtration rate, is associated with a reduction in urinary protein after treatment with an SGLT2 inhibitor.
Methods: This study was a retrospective multicentered study including 28 adult patients with CKD who underwent kidney biopsy and were then treated with dapagliflozin, an SGLT2 inhibitor.

Anti-neutrophil cytoplasmic antibody-associated vasculitides (AAV) represent a heterogeneous multisystem group of disorders typified by necrotising inflammation of smaller blood vessels, classically yielding a pauci-immune, crescentic glomerulonephritis. Without prompt treatment, there is a significant risk of irreversible damage and ensuing renal impairment.Diagnosis is often challenging, exacerbated by the disorder's often vague and insidious presentation.

Introduction: Pseudotumors are benign lesions which may mimic like a malignant tumor on conventional imaging. They are formed in kidneys which are scarred and deformed by chronic pyelonephritis, glomerulonephritis, trauma or infarction. There is a diagnostic dilemma in most of the cases as to differentiate RCC and pseudotumors.
