Glomerulonephritis lead to recurrence of kidney failure
Australia's Monash University Medical Center and an expert in a recent study found that the recurrence of glomerulonephritis is the allogeneic transplant of kidney failure and an important cause. The study report recently published in the "New England Journal of Medicine." Analysis of data relating to Australia and New Zealand accepted the 1505 case of dialysis and transplantation in the treatment of the medical records of patients who were suffering from advanced biopsy confirmed glomerulonephritis, and in the period from 1988 to 1997, accepted the kidney transplant. Nephritis continues to be adopted by the recurrence of the biopsy confirmed that the use of Kaplan-Meier method for its recurrence led to the allogeneic transplant of kidney failure in 10 years the incidence of measured and with Determination of the outcome of acute and chronic rejection, such as the incidence of Comparison. The results show that lead to kidney failure of allogeneic transplant of 10-year rate of glomerulonephritis recurrence was 8.4%. Experts therefore believe that glomerulonephritis is the cause of relapse in patients 10 years of such third largest cause of kidney failure.
