Publisher Correction: Impact of proteinuria levels on long-term kidney outcomes in IgA nephropathy: a meta-analysis

Paper A Peer reviewed Meta-analysis or large trial

Key takeaways

This meta-analysis combined data from many studies and found that higher levels of protein in the urine strongly predicted worse long-term kidney outcomes for people with IgA nephropathy — a key finding that helps doctors decide who needs stronger treatment. The analysis included over 1,500 people followed for up to 10 years.
