Description
Yan Pan and co-authors compare two forms of thrombotic microangiopathy, a disease where small blood vessels are harmed, in this 2026 study. One form stays limited to the kidneys, while the other spreads through the body. The team used a scoring system based on tissue samples to compare patient features and outcomes side by side.
The study reviewed 47 patients with biopsy-proven disease treated between 2018 and 2025. The kidney-limited group was older and showed more long-term tissue change, while the systemic group showed more acute vessel injury and organ problems. Rates of end-stage kidney disease were much the same in both groups. In the kidney-limited group, lower hemoglobin levels were linked with worse kidney outcomes.
