Glomerulonephritis following COVID-19 infection or vaccination: a multicenter study in South Korea.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Despite the widespread impact of the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (coronavirus disease 2019, COVID-19) and vaccination in South Korea, our understanding of kidney diseases following these events remains limited. We aimed to address this gap by investigating the characteristics of glomerular diseases following the COVID-19 infection and vaccination in South Korea.

Methods

Data from multiple centers were used to identify de novo glomerulonephritis (GN) cases with suspected onset following COVID-19 infection or vaccination. Retrospective surveys were used to determine the COVID-19-related histories of patients who were initially not implicated. Bayesian structural time series and autoregressive integrated moving average models were used to determin
