Mashup Score: 34
Complement 3 glomerulopathy (C3G) presents complex diagnostic hurdles due to its rarity, clinical heterogeneity, and lack of definitive biomarkers. Tune in to hear Dr. Gates Colbert and Dr. Anuja Java discuss the need for improved biomarker development, our evolving understanding of complement dysregulation, and the importance of multidisciplinary awareness in advancing timely and accurate diagnosis. Dr. Java is an Associate Professor of Medicine in the Division of Nephrology at Washington University School of Medicine and the Director of the Kidney Transplant Clinic at John Cochran Veterans Hospital in Missouri.

Thrombotic microangiopathy (TMA) is a clinical syndrome characterized by endothelial injury and thrombotic occlusion of the microvasculature, leading to end-organ damage. This systemic disorder can affect any organ system, including the brain, heart, and gastrointestinal tract. However, the kidney is the most frequently affected organ.[1]

Mashup Score: 51Establishing the Future Direction of Clinical Outcomes in C3 Glomerulopathy: Perspectives From a Patient and a Physician - 7 month(s) ago
Complement 3 glomerulopathy (C3G) is an ultra-rare glomerulonephritis caused by dysregulation of the alternative complement pathway. C3G has an estimated incidence of 1–3 cases per million people in the United States. Diagnosing C3G based solely on clinical and laboratory features is challenging since it mimics several other glomerular diseases; therefore, diagnosis requires a kidney biopsy. In the absence of disease-modifying therapies and optimal patient management strategies, C3G poses a significant physical and emotional burden on patients and caregivers.
