Abstract:
Henoch-Sch(o)nlein purpura nephritis (HSPN)is primarily treated with medication. Especially, glucocorticoid and immunosuppressants can control the clinical features and improve its prognosis effectively.Overall prognosis of HSPN is relatively good, but patients with severe clinical presentations and renal insufficiency will be worse.Better interventions of HSPN can be provided through extensive analysis of the treatment and prognosis.
