Genomics of Glomerular Disorders

The purpose of the "Genomics of Glomerular Disorders" study is to identify genetic contributions to primary glomerulopathies. This repository includes a total of N = 3,956 patients with a kidney biopsy diagnosis of a primary glomerular disorder across the following categories: focal segmental glomerulosclerosis (FSGS, N = 508), Henoch-Schönlein purpura nephritis (HSPN, N = 379), IgA nephropathy (IgAN, N = 1,499), membranous nephropathy (MN, N = 963), and minimal change disease (MCD, N = 607). The dataset includes a total of 2,008 patients recruited into the Cure Glomerulonephropathy (CureGN) study and another 1,948 patients from the Columbia University CKD Biobank (i.e., non-CureGN patients). The sample sizes by phenotype are counted based on enrollment diagnoses.
