| Abstract | Background To compare the efficacy and safety of rituximab (RTX), calcineurin inhibitor (CNI) and cyclophosphamide (CTX) plus glucocorticoids in the treatment of primary membranous nephropathy (PMN). Methods Totally 478 biopsy-proven PMN patients in single center were retrospectively included. After 1:1 propensity score matching (PSM), 258 patients were included in RTX, CNI or CTX group (86 patients in each group). Results After PSM, there were no differences on serum creatinine, eGFR, serum albumin, urine protein, anti-PLA2R antibody levels among groups. The follow-up duration was 12 (10.5, 18) months in CNI group, 12 (12, 18) months in CTX group and 12 (12, 18) months in RTX group. Throughout entire follow-up period, 39 patients (45.3%) in CNI group, 47 patients (54.7%) in CTX group, and 59 patients (68.6%) in RTX group achieved total remission (TR, either complete remission or partial remission). The survival curve showed a higher rate of TR in RTX group than CNI group (p = 0.018). A relapse occurred in 15 of 39 (38.5%) patients in CNI group, significantly higher than CTX group (4.3%, p < 0.001) and RTX group (3.4%, p < 0.001). In CNI group, 36% patients had a ≥ 25% decline in eGFR. Conclusions RTX may be more effective than CNI in inducing remission in PMN and showed similar efficacy to CTX. CNI may have a high risk of proteinuria relapse and eGFR decline. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
