Objectives

Narrative objectives1

The objective of this study is to investigate the molecular pathological association between renal interstitial fibrosis, renal function indices (e.g., eGFR), and the expression of fibrosis-related molecules using archived human kidney biopsy specimens.

Basic objectives2

Others

Basic objectives -Others

Kidney biopsy specimens will be immunostained using glucose metabolism-related molecules as primary markers. The expression levels of these molecules and fibrosis indices will be comprehensively analyzed to examine their association with eGFR at the time of biopsy.

Male and Female

Key inclusion criteria

Eligible participants are adult patients (>=18 years old) with chronic kidney disease, regardless of sex, who are judged by the principal or co-investigators to fulfill all of the following criteria:
Diagnosed with a major renal disease such as diabetic kidney disease, nephrosclerosis, or IgA nephropathy.
Kidney biopsy specimens have been appropriately fixed and preserved, allowing for immunohistochemical assessment.
Clinical laboratory data are documented in the electronic medical records.

Key exclusion criteria

Cases where immunohistochemical evaluation is not feasible due to insufficient biopsy specimen quantity or inadequate preservation.
Cases with significant gaps in follow-up data that prevent assessment of renal function progression.
Cases with an unconfirmed or unclassifiable histopathological diagnosis (cases potentially requiring future re-evaluation of kidney biopsy findings are excluded from this study).
