| Abstract |
Fibrillary glomerulonephritis (FGN) and immunotactoid glomerulopathy (IG) are uncommon and characterised by non-amyloid fibrillary glomerular deposits. The aim of this study was to investigate characteristics and outcomes of patients undergoing renal replacement therapy (RRT) for end-stage kidney disease (ESKD) secondary to FGN and IG. All ESKD patients who commenced RRT in Australia and New Zealand 1 January 1990 to 31 December 2010 were included. Outcomes were assessed by Kaplan-Meier, multivariate logistic-regression analysis and multivariable Cox proportional-hazards survival analysis. Of 45,216 individuals with ESKD, 55 (0.12%) had FGN and 11 (0.02%) had IG. The median survival of FGN patients on dialysis (5.63 years, 95% CI 3.31-7.96) was not significantly different from patients with other ESKD causes (median 4.01 years, 95% CI 4.34-4.47; log-rank 1.32, p = 0.25), but was significantly longer than that of IG patients (median 2.93 years, 95% CI 0.00-6.17; log-rank 4.8, p = 0.03). Thirteen (24%) FGN patients received 13 renal-allografts, 4 (36%) IG patients received 4 renal-allografts and 11,528 (26%) other ESKD patients received 12,278 renal-allografts. FGN patients experienced comparable outcomes to other ESKD patients for both 10-year patient survival (100 vs. 84%, p = 0.93) and renal-allograft survival (67 vs. 76%, p = 0.06). For IG, the median follow-up was 3.66 years with 75% patient survival and 100% renal-allograft survival. One (8%) FGN patient and 1 (25%) IG patient experienced recurrent FGN and IG respectively in their allograft. Patients with FGN have comparable dialysis and renal transplant outcomes to patients with other causes of ESKD. IG patients have inferior survival on dialysis, although renal transplant outcomes are acceptable. Disease recurrence in renal-allografts was low for both FGN and IG. |

Attention Score in Context
This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 1. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 23 December 2015.
All research outputs
#20,340,423
of 22,886,568 outputs
Outputs from American Journal of Nephrology
#1,357
of 1,428 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#230,155
of 274,353 outputs
Outputs of similar age from American Journal of Nephrology
#23
of 24 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 22,886,568 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 1,428 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a little more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 6.2. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of its peers scored the same or lower than it.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 274,353 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 24 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
