Abstract
This epidemiological study aimed to identify the primary categories of kidney pathology diagnosis and their prevalence among patients admitted to Shahid Labbafinezhad Teaching Hospital. We included 1006 kidney biopsy findings from 2019 to 2022. The majority of kidney patients (78%) were between the ages of 20 and 60 years. Nephrotic syndrome made up 62% of the patient population. The findings revealed that primary glomerulonephritis, secondary glomerulonephritis, tubular/interstitial nephritis, end-stage kidney disease, and unclassified cases accounted for 63%, 17%, 12%, 6%, and 2% of kidney disease cases, respectively. The inclusion of a large number of patients from various regions across the country, combined with the expertise of the laboratory staff, underscores the reliability and significance of the results obtained in this study.
期刊介绍:
The Iranian Journal of Kidney Diseases (IJKD), a peer-reviewed journal in English, is the official publication of the Iranian Society of Nephrology. The aim of the IJKD is the worldwide reflection of the knowledge produced by the scientists and clinicians in nephrology. Published quarterly, the IJKD provides a new platform for advancement of the field. The journal’s objective is to serve as a focal point for debates and exchange of knowledge and experience among researchers in a global context. Original papers, case reports, and invited reviews on all aspects of the kidney diseases, hypertension, dialysis, and transplantation will be covered by the IJKD. Research on the basic science, clinical practice, and socio-economics of renal health are all welcomed by the editors of the journal.
