“Introduction There has been no national registry of renal biopsies in Japan. The Committee for the Standardization of Renal Pathological Diagnosis and the Working Group for Renal Biopsy Database in the Japanese LY2606368 order Society of Nephrology established the first nationwide, web-based, and prospective registry system, the Japan Renal Biopsy Registry (J-RBR), to record pathological, clinical, and laboratory data regarding all renal http://www.selleck.co.jp/products/Paclitaxel(Taxol).html biopsies performed in 2007. To date, the epidemiological and clinical data of renal diseases are available from nationwide registries of renal biopsies from the United Kingdom [1], Italy [2],
Denmark [3], Spain [4], the Czech Republic [5], and Australia [6]. The role of a renal biopsy registry has been recently encouraged [7]. In Japan, several surveys were temporarily conducted for patients with restricted renal diseases, including primary glomerulonephritis [8], idiopathic membranous nephropathy (MN) [9], and immunoglobulin (Ig) A nephropathy (IgAN) [10]. However, there has been no web-based, nationwide, or prospective registry system of overall renal biopsies in Japan. The aim of the current study was to provide data to investigate the epidemiology and frequency of renal diseases with a histological diagnosis for patients registered in 2007 and 2008 on the J-RBR. Subjects and methods Registry system and patients The researchers on the Committee for the Standardization of Renal Pathological Diagnosis and the Working Group for Renal Biopsy Database in the Japanese Society of Nephrology participated in this study.
