Abstract
Renal damage progression in patients with IgA nephropathy was associated with microscopic hematuria at clinical onset, increased serum creatinine level, increased proteinuria, and grading of histological lesions. Our classification system appears simpler than other classifications and is associated with ESRD risk, which could help identify individual high-risk patients and stratify patients enrolled in randomized clinical trials into homogeneous groups.
