Increased incidence and improved prognosis of glomerulonephritis: a national 30-year study.

This study suggests that the incidence of GN has generally increased between 1985 and 2014, but some of the increase may be related to changes in renal biopsy policy. Major increases in FSGS and ANCAV incidence have occurred. The prognosis of GN, both as regards ESRD and mortality, has improved.
