Notes: Hypertension was defined as systolic blood pressure (BP) ≥140 mmHg, diastolic BP ≥90 mmHg, or use of antihypertensive medications. Chronic nephritis syndrome was defined as proteinuria or hematuria with hypertension or edema. Nephrotic syndrome was defined as persistent proteinuria of more than 3.5 g/1.73 m2/24 h, hypoalbuminemia or albumin levels ≤30 g/L, edema, and varying degrees of hyperlipidemia. Isolated proteinuria or hematuria was defined as a urine protein excretion >0.3 g/1.73 m2/24 h or urine red blood cell (RBC) >3/HP with normal renal function and without hypertension and edema. Normal renal function was defined as estimated glomerular filtration rate (GFR) >90 ml/min/1.73 m2 on at least two occasions. Chronic renal insufficiency was defined as an estimated GFR <60 ml/min/1.73 m2 on at least two occasions with chronic kidney disease. Acute renal insufficiency was defined as an abrupt (within 48 h) reduction in kidney function, according to the Acute Kidney Injury Network (AKIN) criteria.
