Growth Differentiation Factor-15 as a Predictor of Idiopathic Membranous Nephropathy Progression: A Retrospective Study

<div>Relationship between serum GDF-15 level and proteinuria and serum PLA<sub>2</sub>R Ab level and proteinuria. Distribution of serum GDF-15 in patients stratified by (a) nephrotic range and nonnephrotic proteinuria. Distribution of serum PLA<sub>2</sub>R Ab in patients stratified by (b) nephrotic range and nonnephrotic proteinuria. GDF: growth differentiation factor; PLA<sub>2</sub>R Ab: phospholipase A<sub>2</sub> receptor antibody; eGFR: estimated glomerular filtration rate.</div>
