• Addition of eGFR and age improves the prognostic absolute renal risk-model in 1,134 norwegian patients with IgA nephropathy 

      Knoop, Thomas; Vågane, Ann Merethe; Vikse, Bjørn Egil; Svarstad, Einar; Magnusdottir, Bergrun Tinna; Leh, Sabine Maria; Reisæter, Anna Varberg; Bjørneklett, Rune (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2015-05)
      Background: Predicting outcome in individual patients with IgA nephropathy (IgAN) is difficult but important. For this purpose, the absolute renal risk (ARR) model has been developed in a French cohort to calculate the ...
    • Antiglomerular Basement Membrane Disease Possibly Triggered by Undiagnosed Renal Cell Carcinoma: A Case Report 

      Rivedal, Mariell Lossius; Haaskjold, Yngvar Lunde; Berge, Hedda; Knoop, Thomas (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)
      Antiglomerular basement membrane (anti-GBM) disease is a rare, small-vessel vasculitis that affects the capillary beds of the kidneys and lungs. Although exceedingly rare, several case reports have described anti-GBM disease ...
    • IgA-nefropati 

      Haaskjold, Yngvar Lunde; Knoop, Thomas (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)
      Immunglobulin A-nefropati (IgA-nefropati) er den vanligste formen for primær glomerulonefritt i verden og en hyppig årsak til alvorlig nyresvikt hos unge voksne. Diagnosen stilles ved nyrebiopsi. Til tross for at sykdommen ...
    • Improved prognosis in Norwegian patients with glomerulonephritis associated with anti-neutrophil cytoplasmic antibodies 

      Sriskandarajah, Sanjeevan; Aasarød, Knut; Skrede, Steinar; Knoop, Thomas; Reisæter, Anna Varberg; Bjørneklett, Rune (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2014-02-17)
      Background. Glomerulonephritis associated with anti-neutrophil cytoplasmic antibodies (ANCA) is associated with increased mortality and a high risk of end-stage renal disease (ESRD). Here, we investigated whether the ...
    • Long-term follow-up of IgA nephropathy: clinicopathological features and predictors of outcomes 

      Haaskjold, Yngvar Lunde; Lura, Njål; Bjørneklett, Rune Oskar; Bostad, Lars Sigurd; Knoop, Thomas; Bostad, Leif Henry (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)
      Background: The establishment of the Oxford classification and newly developed prediction models have improved the prognostic information for immunoglobulin A nephropathy (IgAN). Considering new treatment options, optimizing ...
    • Utilizing the MEST score for prognostic staging in IgA nephropathy 

      Haaskjold, Yngvar Lunde; Bjørneklett, Rune Oskar; Bostad, Leif; Bostad, Lars Sigurd; Lura, Njål Gjærde; Knoop, Thomas (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)
      Background The Oxford classification/MEST score is an established histopathologic scoring system for patients with IgA nephropathy (IgAN). The objective of this study was to derive a prognostic model for IgAN based on the ...
    • Validation of two IgA nephropathy risk-prediction tools using a cohort with a long follow-up 

      Haaskjold, Yngvar Lunde; Lura, Njål Gjærde; Bjørneklett, Rune Oskar; Bostad, Leif; Bostad, Lars Sigurd; Knoop, Thomas (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)
      Background: Recently, two immunoglobulin A (IgA) nephropathy-prediction tools were developed that combine clinical and histopathologic parameters. The International IgAN Prediction Tool predicts the risk for 50% declines ...
