TL;DR
Chronic kidney disease prevalence in this population is similar to that seen in industrialized countries, and only l out of 4 patients requiring renal replacement therapy in the country currently has access to it.
Abstract
Chronic kidney disease prevalence in this population is similar to that seen in industrialized countries. If these figures are similar to those of the entire Mexican population, only l out of 4 patients requiring renal replacement therapy in the country currently has access to it.

The presence of an IgA linear pattern on the kidney biopsy specimen and circulating anti-glomerular basement membrane (GBM) IgA antibodies led to the diagnosis of Goodpasture syndrome, which implies the possibility that the well-known pulmonary involvement during the course of Schönlein-Henoch purpura could be caused by Good Pasture syndrome in certain cases.

Since low birth weight increases the risk of ESRD from multiple causes, the data suggest that an adverse environment in utero impairs kidney development and makes it more vulnerable to damage from a range of pathological processes.
