Abstract:
Cryoglobulinemia encompasses a group of diseases with circulating aberrant Igs, which can cause systemic cryoglobulinemic vasculitis, including cryoglobulinemic glomerulonephritis. The complexities of different types and changing etiologies of cryoglobulinemias determine its heterogeneous clinical manifestations and diagnostic difficulties. In this issue of Kidney International, Javaugue et al. have emphasized the diagnostic points of cryoglobulinemic glomerulonephritis and hematological disorders as the major culprits of noninfectious cryoglobulinemic glomerulonephritis in a large cohort.
