Overview

Retrospective cohort study examines kidney outcomes in ANCA-associated glomerulonephritis in Qatar, suggesting improved monitoring is needed.

Key Points

  • This study aims to describe the epidemiology, clinical features, kidney pathology, and outcomes of ANCA-associated glomerulonephritis in Qatar.
  • Retrospective cohort study of adults diagnosed with ANCA-GN from 2015 to 2025 at Hamad Medical Corporation.
  • Data was extracted from electronic medical records, focusing on demographic, clinical, serologic, and histopathologic details.
  • Statistical analyses included Student’s t-test, Chi-Square, Fisher’s Exact Test, and Kaplan–Meier survival analyses.
  • 39% of patients developed end-stage kidney disease (ESKD) and 14% died during follow-up.
  • Infection-related mortality was a significant cause of death.
  • Failure to resolve hematuria, lack of early proteinuria reduction, and absence of maintenance therapy were associated with ESKD (p < 0.05).
