Role of lupus nephritis classification systems in everyday clinical practice: a questionnaire-based survey of the Renal Pathology Society (RPS)

This study shows that the 2018 ISN/RPS LN classification is widely used in everyday practice by pathologists. Our results highlight the need for ongoing refinement to facilitate targeted treatment decisions, particularly considering evolving phenotypes and therapeutic advancements in LN.
