Glomerulosclerosis predicts poor renal outcome in patients with idiopathic membranous nephropathy

ConclusionsPatients in the Tertile3 (higher proportion of glomerulosclerosis) group had more severe renal pathological damage compared to patients in the Tertile1 and Tertile2 groups. Glomerulosclerosis is a risk factor for renal function progression and poor renal prognosis in patients with IMN. As the proportion of glomerulosclerosis increases, the risk of renal endpoint events increases gradually.
