However, about 10% of patients with anti-GBM disease do not have circulating anti-
GBM antibodies Image
2)Atypical anti-GBM disease is considered when patients have linear IgG deposition along the glomerular basement membrane without anti-GBM antibodies in the circulation. #nephrology #kidney #kidneydisease

Join me on November 8th for the biggest #KidneyWalk in the country! @nkf bit.ly/2ThUScQ Image
Kidney patients need us now more than ever. 37 million people in the US are affected by #kidneydisease and only 10% of them know it? And Black and Latino people are at a higher risk of developing kidney disease.
There is no cure for kidney failure – dialysis or transplant are the only ways to survive. Right now, there are nearly 100K people waiting on a lifesaving kidney transplant in the United States.

Today is #WorldKidneyDay, so here is a thread about living on #dialysis & #OrganDonation. My name is Belinda Otas. I’m #African. I’m #Nigerian. I'm #Benin. I’m #British & I’m #Black. Beyond the nationalities or passports with my name, I also believe in our shared humanity.
I was 16, when I was diagnosed with End Stage Renal Failure (ESRF.) I had no idea what was happening to me because at the time, it made no sense. However, I remember the pain of that period like noonday. I lived on dialysis until i was 22. #dialysis #OrganDonation #renalhealth
It took over my teenage years. I don’t remember having much of a life as a teenager because dialysis was 3x a week & every session was 4hrs. Add the time it takes to recover from being exhausted by the process, my day was pretty much over. #dialysis #OrganDonation #renalhealth
