Demographic and clinical characteristics, specific diagnoses of glomerular diseases and biopsy findings recorded to the database were analyzed.Among the 1,274 patients, who had renal biopsy within the defined time period, 55 % were male and 45 % were female. The mean age was 40.8 +/- A 14.6 years. The most frequent indication for biopsy was nephrotic syndrome (57.8 %), followed by nephritic syndrome including rapidly progressive glomerulonephritis (16.6 %) and asymptomatic urinary abnormalities (10.8 %). The most frequent primary glomerular disease was membranous nephropathy (28.8 %), followed by focal segmental glomerulosclerosis (19.3 %) and IgA nephropathy (17.2 %).The presented study displayed important data about the epidemiology of primary glomerular diseases among adults in our country. The predominance of membranous nephropathy in contrast to other countries, in which the most frequent etiology is IgA nephropathy, seems to be due to differences in the indications for renal biopsy.Publication The longitudinal evolution of post-COVID-19 outcomes among hemodialysis patients in Turkey(Elsevier Science Inc, 2022-06-03) Ozturk, Savas; Turgutalp, Kenan; Arici, Mustafa; Gorgulu, Numan; Tonbul, Halil Zeki; Eren, Necmi; Gencer, Vedat; Ayli, Mehmet Deniz; Pembegul, Irem; Dolarslan, Murside Esra; Ural, Zeynep; Colak, Hulya; Ozler, Tuba Elif; Can, Ozgur; Demir, Mehmet Emin; Altunoren, Orcun; Huddam, Bulent; Onec, Kursad; Demirelli, Bulent; Aydin, Zeki; Altun, Eda; Alagoz, Selma; Ayar, Yavuz; Eser, Zeynep Ebru; Berktas, Bayram; Yilmaz, Zulfukar; Ates, Eser Uslu; Yuksel, Enver; Sahin, Gizem Kumru; Aktar, Merve; Cebeci, Egemen; Dursun, Belda; Kocak, Sibel Yucel; Yıldız, Abdülmecit; Kazan, Sinan; Gok, Mahmut; Sengul, Erkan; Tugcu, Murat; Ozturk, Ramazan; Kahvecioglu, Serdar; Kara, Ekrem; Kaya, Bulent; Sahin, Garip; Sakaci, Tamer; Sipahi, Savas; Kurultak, Ilhan; Durak, Beyza Algul; Altiparmak, Mehmet Riza; Ecder, Sabahat Alisir; Karadag, Serhat; Dincer, Mevlut Tamer; Ozer, Hakan; Bek, Sibel Gokcay; Ulu, Memnune Sena; Gungor, Ozkan; Bakir, Elif Ari; Odabas, Ali Riza; Seyahi, Nurhan; Yildiz, Alaattin; Ates, Kenan; YILDIZ, ABDULMECİT; Bursa Uludağ Üniversitesi/Tıp Fakültesi/Nefroloji Anabilim Dalı.; HIG-9032-2022Introduction: Hemodialysis (HD) patients have increased risk for short-term adverse outcomes of COVID-19. However, complications and survival at the post-COVID-19 period have not been published extensively.Methods: We conducted a national, multicenter observational study that included adult maintenance HD patients recovered from confirmed COVID-19. A control HD group without COVID-19 was selected from patients in the same center. We investigated the characteristics and outcomes in the follow-up of HD patients and compare them with the non-COVID-19 group.Results: A total of 1223 patients (635 patients in COVID-19 group, 588 patients in non-COVID-19 group) from 47 centers were included in the study. The patients' baseline and HD characteristics were almost similar. The 28th-day mortality and mortality between 28th day and 90th day were higher in the COVID-19 group than non-COVID-19 group (19 [3.0%] patients vs. none [0%]; 15 [2.4%] patients vs. 4 [0.7%] patients, respectively). The presence of respiratory symptoms, rehospitalization, need for home oxygen therapy, lower respiratory tract infection, and arteriovenous (AV) fistula thrombosis was significantly higher in the COVID-19 group in both the first 28 days and between 28 and 90 days. In the multivariable analysis, age (odds ratio [OR] [95% CI]: 1.029 [1.004-1.056]), group (COVID-19 group vs. non-COVID-19 group) (OR [95% CI]: 7.258 [2.538-20.751]), and vascular access type (tunneled catheter/AV fistula) (OR [95% CI]: 2.512 [1.249-5.051]) were found as independent parameters related to 90-day mortality.Conclusion: In the post-COVID-19 period, maintenance HD patients who have had COVID-19 have increased rehospitalization, respiratory problems, vascular access problems, and high mortality compared with the non-COVID-19 HD patients.
