Approximately 90% of cases are classified as idiopathic nephrotic syndrome, most of which are histologically diagnosed as minimal change disease (MCD). Although the majority of patients achieve remission with steroid therapy, a subset develops steroid resistance and progresses to focal segmental glomerulosclerosis (FSGS) and kidney failure. Increasing evidence suggests that MCD and idiopathic FSGS represent a disease continuum, with FSGS reflecting a more advanced stage. Although several candidates have been proposed as circulating factors, none fully explains the disease pathogenesis. This landscape changed in 2022 with the discovery of anti-nephrin autoantibodies in MCD. Subsequently, we reported that circulating anti-nephrin autoantibodies were identified by ELISA in patients with post-transplant recurrent FSGS, and punctate IgG deposition colocalizing with nephrin was consistently detected in allograft biopsy specimens obtained during recurrence. Notably, these IgG deposits resolved following remission. Collectively, these findings suggest diffuse podocytopathies as autoantibody-mediated disorders and support a shift toward autoantibody-based disease classification. Experimental and clinical studies demonstrate that anti-nephrin autoantibodies induce nephrin phosphorylation. This process may be associated with nephrin endocytosis and subsequent cytoskeletal alterations. Additionally, autoantibodies targeting slit diaphragm molecules other than nephrin have been identified. However, the pathogenic roles of these autoantibodies remain to be clarified.

They were divided into 2 groups: 835 non-nephrologists and 168 nephrologists, and the differences were analyzed. Furthermore, the 2024 survey results were compared with those from the 2013 and 2019 surveys.</p><p><strong>Results: </strong>The use of CKD guidelines was significantly lower among non-nephrologists than nephrologists (55%/21% and 86%/60%, respectively; p < 0.001), and as in the past 2 surveys (p < 0.001). Estimated glomerular filtration rate assessment was widespread at 95%; nevertheless, 34% of non-nephrologists measured quantitative proteinuria compared to 82% of nephrologists (p < 0.001). This prevalence decreased with each survey and with the age of the non-nephrologists. While 75% of nephrologists prescribed renin-angiotensin system inhibitors for patients with CKD and hypertension, considering their renoprotective effects, 45% of non-nephrologists answered it (p < 0.001). While 61% of non-nephrologists prescribed sodium-glucose co-transporter 2 inhibitors to patients with CKD, regardless of diabetes complications, compared to 83% of nephrologists (p < 0.001).</p><p><strong>Conclusion: </strong>The quality of CKD management by non-nephrologists partially improved in the past decade; however, the low use of guidelines and implementation of quantitative proteinuria measurements among non-nephrologists needs to be addressed in future.</p>","PeriodicalId":10349,"journal":{"name":"Clinical and Experimental Nephrology","volume":" ","pages":"706-717"},"PeriodicalIF":1.7,"publicationDate":"2026-05-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"146092241","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
