Results The focal and segmental glomerulosclerosis group displayed the highest incidence
of ESRD (25.8%) and the fastest decline of estimated GFR (4.6 ml/min per 1.73 m 2 per
year). The IgA nephropathy group also had a higher rate of ESRD than the membranous
nephropathy patients (19.2% versus 4.3%, P< 0.001). In contrast, the membranous
nephropathy group exhibited an overall death rate similar to the focal and segmental
glomerulosclerosis group (17.2% versus 14.4%) but higher than the IgA nephropathy and …
