Incidence and outcome of lupus nephritis in French Polynesia

Abstract: Renal presentation was the main predictive factor for a renal response whereas geographical residence and maintenance-treatment regimen were predictive of LN relapses in patients from French Polynesia, an area characterized by a specific genetic background and including several isolated islands that have limited access to healthcare.

“…However, we and others have reported the high incidence of rare genetic kidney diseases or autoimmune diseases in this area. 6 , 7 For example, because of founder effect, recurrent variations in COL4A5 and FAN1 respectively explain the high incidence of X-linked Alport syndrome and recessively inherited karyomegaly in French Polynesia. 6 , 8 In addition, we also reported the high incidence of systemic lupus erythematosus in this geographic area.…”

“… 6 , 8 In addition, we also reported the high incidence of systemic lupus erythematosus in this geographic area. 7 The epidemiology of CKD may be more complex, especially in young adult patients, and therefore requires refinement using the most recent clinical workflow to improve nephrology-focused public health policies.…”

“…The cumulative incidence of LN is relatively high in Asians (55%) and Africans (51%) with SLE. The outcome of patients with an early diagnosed LN was significantly improved in recent years [ 2 ] , and thus early diagnosis and treatment of LN can greatly improve the prognosis of patients with SLE [ 3 ] . However, there is a lack of high sensitivity and specificity markers for early diagnosis of LN.…”
