Abstract:
After Hubert first reported cases of IgA nephropathy (IgAN) associated with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) in 1984, researches further confirmed the association. Genome-wide association analyses also suggested that they may share a common genetic background. As IgAN is one of the leading causes of kidney failure and chronic kidney disease (CKD), early diagnosis and intervention can significantly improve the prognosis, and strengthening renal function follow-up and IgAN screening in IBD patients helps disease management. This article reviews the interplay between IBD and IgAN to provide reference for clinical diagnosis and treatment.
