The Latest Treatment Strategies for Henoch-Schönlein Purpura Nephritis: Application of Immunosuppressants
Henoch-Schönlein purpura (HSP) is a common vasculitis in children, primarily characterized by skin purpura, abdominal pain, joint pain, and kidney involvement. In recent years, immunosuppressants have gained increasing attention in treating HSP nephritis, especially for severe cases and patients with persistent symptoms. This review summarizes the current applications, efficacy assessments, and potential side effects of immunosuppressants in patients with HSP nephritis, aiming to provide a reference for clinical treatment.
