Abstract

patients improved their renal function (creatinine range, 99-155 mol/L; mean followup 6 months). Creatinine however remained well above the previous baseline range of 65-77 mol/L. Conclusions: IgA-PIGN was mostly found in non-diabetic patients in this study, in contrast with some previous studies showing strong association with diabetic nephropathy. We confirm that IgA-PIGN is often associated with SA and MRSA infections and for the first time we found an association with CMRSA-10. Although renal function improved in all non-diabetic patients, full recovery was not seen in any of the patients during the follow-up.
