A multi-center study finds proteinuria levels predict disease progression in children and adults, indicating urgent care needs.

This study aims to evaluate the impact of proteinuria levels on the progression of IgA nephropathy.
Analyzed 234 children and 368 adults across four cohorts.
Cohorts defined by proteinuria measurements over two years.
Used multivariate analyses to assess the relationship between proteinuria and disease outcomes.
Higher proteinuria is a strong predictor of disease progression.
Adults with the highest proteinuria had over three times the risk of kidney failure compared to those with moderate levels.
Estimated time to reach eGFR <15 ml/min/1.73 m² was over 90 years in the low proteinuria group and only 8-16 years in higher groups.

Scheidt et al. (2026) studied this question.
