Abstract
Abstract:
Background:
The leading cause of glomerulonephritis that occurs most frequently and has the greatest morbidity and mortality rates worldwide are Immunoglobulin A nephropathy (IgAN). Internationally, the prevalence and clinicopathological range of primary Immunoglobin A nephropathy (IgAN) is diverse. This study aims to assess the clinical, pathological, and laboratory characteristics of male and female IgANpatients.
Methods:
This is a retrospective Single center study, conducted in Erbil teaching hospital. All Native biopsy reports from 2015 to 2021 were reviewed and those with the diagnosis of IgA nephropathy were selected and their pathological, clinical, and laboratory data were analyzed and categorized using the Oxford categorization method.
Results:
Out of 2649 biopsies done from 2015 to 2021 167. had IgA nephropathy, hence prevalence is
6.3%. Mean age was 34.03, Males comprised (67.1%), Females (32.9%). (68.3%) of patients had hypertension, (49.7%) of the patients had renal impairment, 38% had microscopic hematuria, and 19.8% had macroscopic haematuria. More than half (56.3%) of the males had renal impairment, compared with 36.4% of females (p = 0.016)
Conclusion
Ig A nephropathy is common with variable presentations. Males have worse clinical and pathological features. High BMI is associated with higher blood pressure and more proteinuria. Larger studies are required to confirm, these findings.
