Background and objectives
Glomerular C3 deposition is often
observed in renal biopsies of patients with IgA nephropathy
(IgAN), however, the relationship
between the level of C3 deposition and the long-term prognosis of IgAN
have rarely been reported. In this observational cohort study, we aimed
to evaluate the prognostic value of glomerular C3 deposition in the
progression of IgAN.
