About this trial
This prospective cohort study is designed to examine the association between blood and urine biomarkers (including genetic variants) and long-term kidney disease progression among 2000 Chinese IgA nephropathy patients with relatively normal kidney function (eGFR≥60 ml/min/1.73 m2).
