Minimal change nephropathy associated with sclerosing mesenteritis.

abstract：BACKGROUND/AIM:Our previous study with prevalent cases suggested that some genetic, immunological and lifestyle-related factors increased the risk of immunoglobulin A nephropathy (IgAN). To confirm this hypothesis, we conducted another case-control study. METHODS:The study included 116 incident cases and 276 sex-, age...
