Long-term renal survival in patients with IgA nephropathy: a systematic review.

ABSTRACT: The management strategy for IgA nephropathy (IgAN), has undergone constant improvements since the disease entity was first described 50 years ago. However, it is still unknown how these changes affected the long-term renal survival of IgAN patients. We systematically evaluate changes in IgAN renal survival by searching PubMed, Embase, and the Cochrane Library Database of Systematic Reviews from inception to 19 May 2024. We included a large sample of 103076 IgAN cases from 158 studies. Renal survival rates were 94.16% (95% CI: 94.02% to 94.31%), 88.68% (95% CI: 88.48% to 88.87%), and 78.13% (95% CI: 77.82% to 78.43%) at three, five, and ten-year, respectively. Over the past few decades, there haven't been any sound changes in the 3-year and 5-year renal survival rates. The kidney survival r
