Background: IgA nephropathy (IgAN) presents a challenging spectrum of outcomes, often complicated by intrarenal arterial/arteriolar lesions (IALs) in affected individuals. Despite their clinical relevance, existing criteria for classifying and assessing the severity of these lesions remain undefined. This study aimed to establish semi-quantitative assessment criteria for grading IALs and to evaluate their prognostic significance in patients with IgAN.

Introduction: Leukocytoclastic vasculitis (LCV) is a small-vessel inflammatory condition that can rarely occur as an adverse drug reaction (ADR). Vancomycin-induced LCV is an uncommon but potentially serious complication, particularly in patients with pre-existing renal impairment.
Reason For The Report: This case report describes a patient with end-stage renal disease (ESRD) who developed LCV following vancomycin therapy for a catheter-related infection.

Background: Immunoglobulin A nephropathy (IgAN), a common primary glomerulonephritis worldwide, has been investigated, and complex factors are involved in disease progression. A group of evidence emerged that nutrition status plays a nonsubstitutable role in the management of chronic kidney disease. Meanwhile, a novel marker of nutrition and inflammation, the prognostic nutritional index (PNI), has been studied in various diseases.

IgA vasculitis (IgAV) is considered a systemic form of IgA nephropathy (IgAN). The two diseases share similar geographic and ethnic distribution, along with common variants in genetic association studies. The pathophysiology of IgAN and IgA vasculitis nephritis (IgAVN) can be explained by the four-hit hypothesis.
