Abstract

IgA vasculitis (IgAV) is the most common systemic small vessel vasculitis in children, and it is called IgA vasculitis with nephritis (IgAVN) when it affects the kidneys. Renal damage eventually lead to chronic kidney disease in about 20% children with IgAVN, and accounting for 1%~2% of all childhood end-stage renal disease (ESRD). Therefore, it is important to identify the risk factors for the prognosis of IgAVN in children and give timely and effective intervention for the prognosis of IgAVN. This article reviews the risk factors affecting the prognosis of IgAVN in children, in order to provide reference for clinical decision-making.
