Research topics from publications: Global, Regional, and National Burden of CKD due to Glomerulonephritis from 1990 to 2019. Representative work: BACKGROUND: CKD is becoming a major human health concern. Limited quantitative assessments of the burden of CKD due to glomerulonephritis have been performed. We performed a comprehensive analysis of the disease burden to update the epidemiology of this disease. METHODS: Incidence, prevalence, deaths, and disability-adjusted life-years (DALYs) data and percent changes in these indicators were extracted from Global Burden of Disease Study 2019 to analyze the burden of CKD due to glomerulonephritis. RESULTS: Globally, there were 606,300 (95% uncertainty interval [UI], 560,100 to 658,100) incident patients, 17,300,000 (95% UI, 16,100,000 to 18,600,000) prevalent patients, 183,700 (95% UI, 146,3
