[Long-term results of dispensarization of patients with chronic glomerulonephritis].

The results of long-term follow-up (from 4 to 25 years) were studied in 1420 patients with chronic glomerulonephritis registered in the city nephrologic service of Leningrad. The relapses ceased in 45.8% and became less frequent in 16% of cases. The survival rate of long-term follow-up patients was significantly higher than of those observed for 2-3.5 years. Long remissions and slowing down of the disease progression were obtained mostly in cases with mild or moderate process activity and seldom in patients with frequent and persisting relapses: Long-term results did not significantly depend on hypertension or nephrotic syndrome but worsened in membrano-proliferative, sclerotic glomerulonephritis and focal glomerulosclerosis due to their inclination to relapse.
