Follow-up studies on 113 patients with various types of primary glomerular diseases were performed for one to 33 months to determine the clinical spectrum of primary glomerulonephritis. Of those studied, six patients exhibited scleritis. All of these six patients with scleritis were identified as having "IgA nephropathy." None of the patients other than those with IgA nephropathy showed scleritis during the study period. It is suggested that some autoimmune mechanisms similar to the manifestation of IgA nephropathy may be involved in the development of scleritis.
对113例各种类型原发性肾小球疾病患者进行了1至33个月的随访研究,以确定原发性肾小球肾炎的临床谱。在这些研究对象中,有6例出现巩膜炎。这6例巩膜炎患者均被诊断为“IgA肾病”。在研究期间,除IgA肾病患者外,其他患者均未出现巩膜炎。提示巩膜炎的发生可能涉及一些与IgA肾病表现相似的自身免疫机制。
