Abstract:
Objective To analyze the relationship between the clinical and pathological effects and long-term prognosis in children with Henoch-Schonlein nephritis.Methods Changes of clinical pathology were studied in 32 children with Henoch-Schonlein nephritis and 19 cases of them were followed over an 8 to 14 year period.Results Acute nephritis ranked first(50 ?)and the nephritic syndrome ranked second(40?)in the clinical classification of Henoch-Schonlein nephritis;the majority had pathological changes of Grade???.The rate of recovery of acute nephritis and the nephritic syndrome was 55.6?abd 28.6?,respectively.The rate of recovery and deterioration of Grade??? pathological changes was 43.8?and 12.5?,respectively.Of the patients with Grade??? pathological changes,66.7? deteriorated or died. Conclusions The prognosis of acute nephritis was better than that of the nephritic syndrome,and long-term prognosis is closely associated with the clinical classification and pathology.
