TL;DR: It is indicated that tonsillectomy has a favorable effect on long-term renal survival in patients with IgAN.

TL;DR: Three elderly men with high serum IgG4 concentrations and multiple lymphoplasmacytic inflammation of the salivary glands, lymph nodes, pancreas, and renal interstitium show that IgG 4 is associated not only with autoimmune pancreatitis, but also with other systemic lymphoplasmsacytic disease.

TL;DR: The highest dose of HCA-containing Garcinia cambogia extract showed significant suppression of epididymal fat accumulation in developing male Zucker obese rats, compared with the other groups, however, the diets containing 102 mmol HCA/kg diet and higher caused potent testicular atrophy and toxicity, whereas diets containing 51 mmol HCS diet (389 mg H CA/kg BW/d) or less did not.

TL;DR: A high incidence of IgA nephropathy and a better renal survival of membranous nephopathy are the features of primary chronic glomerulonephritis in Japan.

TL;DR: Renal parenchymal lesions in IgG4-related systemic disease are due to dense lymphoplasmacytic infiltration of the renal interstitium, and the lesions vary from diffuse tubulointerstitial nephritis to tumor-like masses according to the distribution patterns of the infiltrating cells.
