  • Title: Prognostic significance of urinary findings and renal biopsies in children with Henoch-Schönlein nephritis.
    Author: Farine M, Poucell S, Geary DL, Baumal R.
    Journal: Clin Pediatr (Phila); 1986 May; 25(5):257-9. PubMed ID: 3698445.
    Abstract:
    Clinical course and renal biopsy were evaluated as predictors of renal outcome in 21 children with Henoch-Schönlein nephritis. Persisting heavy proteinuria and severe glomerular changes most accurately predicted those patients who were likely to develop renal failure. Renal biopsy is recommended only in patients with a nephrotic or nephritic/nephrotic picture.
