Abstract

Bacterial infection-related GN occurs concurrent to or after known or unknown infections. It is important to understand the clinical implications of the bacterial isolates, antimicrobial resistance patterns, and effect of latency-based classification on kidney and patient outcomes. In total, 501 consecutive adults diagnosed with bacterial infection-related GN between 2005 and 2017 were included from a biopsy registry of 15,545 patients at a single center in South India, and follow-up data were collected from electronic medical records until December 2019. Latency was defined as time between resolution of infection and onset of GN, which was classified as parainfectious, peri-infectious, or postinfectious GN. Longitudinal kidney and patient outcomes were studied. The mean age of the cohort was 40 (± 15) years, 6% were above 65 years, and 330 (66%) were men. Diabetes was present in 93 (19%) patients. Seventy percent (353 of 501) of patients had known infections, with the median latent period for parainfectious (115 of 353, 33%), peri-infectious (97 of 353, 27%), and postinfectious (141 of 353, 40%) GN being 0, 5 (4-7), and 15 (10-31) days, respectively. The most common predisposing organism was Streptococcus pyogenes (137 of 353,...Continue Reading
