Peripheral blood erythrocytic functional disorders were studied in 31 patients with primary and secondary hematuric nephritides. A decrease in erythrocyte normal charge was noted in 90%, erythrocyte fragmentation in 43%. Reverse correlation was established between a degree of lowered peripheral blood erythrocyte charge and serum IgA concentration (R = -0.65 +/- 0.15). The role of the detected erythrocytic disorders in the mechanisms of hematuria, the involvement of local (renal) intravascular coagulation in the pathogenesis of hematuric nephritides were discussed.
