Initial Circulating CD138 Predicts End-Stage Kidney Disease in Patients with Microscopic Polyangiitis
This study demonstrated that circulating CD138 measured at diagnosis has clinical utility as a biomarker for predicting future progression to ESKD in patients with MPA, and incorporating CD138 measurement at diagnosis may assist in identifying high-risk patients and guiding early therapeutic interventions in clinical practice.
