Clinicopathologic features and long-term prognosis of hepatitis B virus-associated glomerulonephritis: a retrospective cohort study.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Hepatitis B virus-associated glomerulonephritis is a common form of secondary glomerulonephritis in China. However, the clinicopathological features and long-term prognosis of Hepatitis B virus-associated Glomerulonephritis remain only partially known.

Methods

Biopsy-proven Hepatitis B virus-associated Glomerulonephritis patients were enrolled between November 1994 and December 2013 at our center. The composite endpoints were doubling serum creatinine, end-stage renal disease, or death from renal disease during follow-up. The clinicopathological features and predictors of the long-term prognosis of Hepatitis B virus-associated Glomerulonephritis patients were explored.

Results
