Efficacy and safety of tacrolimus in the treatment of Henoch-Schönlein purpura nephritis: systematic review and meta-analysis
This is the first systematic review and meta-analysis specifically evaluating TAC in HSPN, providing novel evidence that TAC is an effective and safe therapeutic option for these patients. Its potential advantages over conventional immunosuppressive therapies highlight the need for further high-quality, long-term randomized controlled trials to confirm these findings and establish TAC's role in HSPN management.
