Objective: This paper focuses on the foot-process in renal biopsies of patients with lgA, and examines their correlation with baseline clinical indicators and pathological manifestations in patients with lgA. Method: A retrospective data of patients who performed renal biopsy proven IgA nephropathy was selected. The patients who reached the agreed standard were grouped based on the degree of foot-process. There were three groups (ABC Groups) (Du, Y. and Huang, C, 2009. The value of proteinuria and foot process fusion in the onset of prognosis of acute kidney disease. Chinese Journal of Integrated Traditional and Western Medicine, 10(1), pp.44-45): group A for patients with no obvious foot-process lesion; group B for patients with segmental foot-process; group C for patients with massive foot-process. The three groups were reviewed in the aspects of baseline clinical indicators and Oxford classification, so as to discover foot-process’ effect on patients with IgA nephropathy. Results: A total of 129 patients with IgA nephropathy were included in the study. Concerning about the clinical baseline indicators related to the degree of foot-process, the 24-hour proteinuria level at admission was statistically significant and positively correlated (r = 0.324, P = 0.000). The comparison between groups showed there was statistically significant difference between group C and group A and group B (P = 0.001, P = 0.035). According to the Oxford Classification, only the differences of mesangial hypercellularity (M) and segmental sclerosis/adhesion (S) were statistically significant (r = 0.239, P = 0.006; r = 0.257, P = 0.003) and were positively correlated. In terms of mesangial hypercellularity (M), the differences between group A and B, group A and C were statistically significant (P = 0.01, P = 0.003). The comparison between group B and group C showed statistical difference (P = −0.031) in segmental sclerosis/adhesion (S). Among the 76 patients with S0 revealed by the Oxford classification, there were 55 patients of glomerulosclerosis, which was positively correlated with the degree of foot process (r = 0.211, P = 0.016). The comparison between group A and group C showed statistical difference (P = 0.014). Conclusion: The severity foot-process was positively correlated with the level of proteinuria. Foot-process is positively related with mesangial hypercellularity, segmental sclerosis and glomerulosclerosis. With more severe the foot-process, there will be more serious mesangial hypercellularity and irreversible glomerular injury. Foot-process is positively correlated with Lee’s Pathological Grading.

Background: IgA nephropathy (IgAN) is one of the most common glomerular diseases with varied presentations. We aimed to study clinical presentation and outcome of IgAN and correlate with histopathology at the time of presentation. Methods: This is a retrospective study in which we analyzed kidney biopsy data, clinical manifestations and outcome of 137 patients with a diagnosis of primary IgAN from 2012 to 2016. Kidney biopsies were reviewed as per Oxford classification assessing mesangial hypercellularity, endocapillary hypercellularity, segmental sclerosis/adhesion, tubular atrophy/interstitial fibrosis. Correlation analysis was done for biopsy findings and clinical presentation/outcome. P score less than 0.05 was taken as significant. Results: Mean age for presentation was 27.35 years with 83 males and 54 females. Asymptomatic urinary abnormality was the most common clinical presentation (28.5%). Mean serum creatinine was 2.23 ± 2.06mg/dl with mean proteinuria of 1.49 ± 1.43g/day. Mesangial hypercellularity (M) and Endocapillary hypercellularity (E) lesions were significantly associated with proteinuria at the time of biopsy (p=0.02& 0.04 respectively). Segmental glomerulosclerosis (S) and tubular atrophy (T) were significantly associated with eGFR and mean arterial pressure at the time of biopsy. Mean time of follow up was 1.6 years. M1, E0, S1, T0 were the most common lesions. M, S and T lesions in biopsy were significantly associated with decrease in GFR at the end of follow up. Conclusion: In our study, most common presentation of IgAN was AUA with rarity of macroscopic hematuria. M, S and T lesions were associated with decreased GFR on follow up.
