Comparative study reveals clinicopathological differences in IgA nephropathy among ulcerative colitis and Crohn's disease patients, suggesting distinct characteristics.
The association between IgA nephropathy (IgAN) and inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) has gained attention, yet the clinical and pathological characteristics of IgAN in patients with ulcerative colitis (UC) or Crohn's disease (CD) remain poorly defined. This study aimed to compare the clinicopathological features and kidney outcomes of IgAN across three groups: IgAN alone, UC-associated IgAN, and CD-associated IgAN.
