Description

Ozge Hurdogan and colleagues study their patients with fibrillary glomerulonephritis. The very rare kidney disease is defined by non-branching fibril deposits and a positive DNAJB9 test. The study took in adult patients found over nearly two decades. Each showed DNAJB9 positivity on biopsy.

The team looked at fifty native kidney biopsies from forty-four patients. The most common injury patterns were mesangial and membranoproliferative. A minority showed atypical variants, such as congophilia and light-chain restriction. Follow-up ran for a median of about twenty-seven months. In that span, about half of the followed patients hit the composite outcome: doubled creatinine, kidney replacement therapy, advanced kidney disease, or death. Two in five had dialysis or a transplant. In regression models, hemoglobin predicted the main outcome.
