Abstract
BACKGROUND C3 glomerulopathy and idiopathic immunoglobulin-mediated membranoproliferative GN (Ig-MPGN) are rare complement-mediated kidney diseases. Inherited forms of C3 glomerulopathy/Ig-MPGN are rarely described. METHODS Three hundred ninety-eight patients with C3 glomerulopathy ( n =296) or Ig-MPGN ( n =102) from a national registry were screened for three complement genes: factor H ( CFH ), factor I ( CFI ), and C3 . Patients with rare variant (minor allele frequency <0.1%) were included. Epidemiologic, clinical, and immunologic data at diagnosis and kidney outcomes of patients were retrospectively collected. RESULTS Fifty-three different rare variants, including 30 (57%), 13 (24%), and ten (19%) in CFH , CFI , and C3 variants, were identified in 66/398 (17%) patients. Thirty-eight (72%) variants were classified as pathogenic, including 20/30 (66%) and 11/13 (84%) variants in CFH and CFI , respectively, impairing synthesis of factor H or factor I regulators. Fifteen of 53 (27%) variants were of unknown significance. At diagnosis, 69% of patients were adult (median age of 31 years). With the exception of biologic stigma of thrombotic microangiopathy, which was more frequent in patients with CFI variants (5/14 [36%] versus 1/37 [3%] and 0% in the CFH group and C3 group, respectively, P < 0.001), the clinical and histologic features were similar among the three variants groups. The kidney outcome was poor regardless of the age at onset and treatment received. Sixty-five percent (43/66) of patients with rare variant reach kidney failure after a median delay of 41 (19-104) months, compared with 28% (55/195) after a median delay of 34 (12-143) months in the nonvariant group. Among 36 patients who received a kidney transplant, 2-year recurrence was frequent, occurring in 39% (12/31), without difference between variant groups, and led to graft failure in three cases. CONCLUSIONS In our cohort, 17% of C3 glomerulopathy/Ig-MPGN cases were associated with rare variants in the CFH , CFI , or C3 genes. In most cases, a quantitative deficiency in factor H or factor I was identified. The presence of a rare variant was associated with poor kidney survival.

Abstract
BACKGROUND IgA vasculitis (IgAV) is the most common vasculitis in children. IgAV long-term prognosis depends on kidney involvement or IgA vasculitis with nephritis (IgAVN). To date, steroid treatment (oral steroids or methylprednisolone pulses) has not proven to be formally efficient. This study aimed to assess the role of steroids on IgAVN outcome. METHODS All children with IgAVN diagnosed 2000-2019 in 14 French pediatric nephrology units with minimal follow-up of 6 months were retrospectively included. Outcomes of patients treated with steroids were compared with those of a control group of untreated patients matched for age, sex, proteinuria, eGFR, and histological features. The primary endpoint was IgAVN remission defined as urine protein-to-creatinine ratio < 20 mg/mmol without impaired eGFR one year after disease onset. RESULTS A total of 359 patients with IgAVN were included with a median follow-up time of 249 days (range 43-809). One hundred eight (30%) patients received oral steroids alone, 207 (51%) patients received three methylprednisolone pulses followed by oral steroids, and 44 patients (12.5%) did not receive steroids. Thirty-two children treated with oral steroids alone were compared with 32 matched control patients who did not receive steroids. One year after disease onset, IgAVN remission proportion was not different between these two groups: 62% versus 68%, respectively. Ninety-three children treated with oral steroids alone were compared with 93 matched patients treated with three methylprednisolone pulses followed by oral corticosteroids. IgAVN remission proportion was not different between these two groups: 77% versus 73%, respectively. CONCLUSION The benefit of oral steroids alone and methylprednisolone pulses could not be established based on this observational study. Randomized controlled trials are thus required to determine the efficacy of steroids in IgAVN. A higher resolution version of the Graphical abstract is available as Supplementary information.

Abstract
Primary Coenzyme Q10 deficiency is a rare mitochondriopathy with a wide spectrum of organ involvement, including steroid-resistant nephrotic syndrome mainly associated with disease-causing variants in the genes COQ2, COQ6 or COQ8B. We performed a systematic literature review, PodoNet, MitoNET,and CCGKDD registries queries and an online survey, collecting comprehensive clinical and genetic data of 251 patients spanning 173 published (47 updated) and 78 new cases. Kidney disease was first diagnosed at median age 1.0, 1.2 and 9.8 years in individuals with disease-causing variants in COQ2, COQ6 and COQ8B, respectively. Isolated kidney involvement at diagnosis occurred in 34% of COQ2, 10.8% of COQ6 and 70.7% of COQ8B variant individuals. Classic infantile multiorgan involvement comprised 22% of the COQ2 variant cohort while 47% of them developed neurological symptoms at median age 2.7 years. The association of steroid-resistant nephrotic syndrome and sensorineural hearing loss was confirmed as the distinctive phenotype of COQ6 variants, with hearing impairment manifesting at average age three years. None of the patients with COQ8B variants, but 50% of patients with COQ2 and COQ6 variants progressed to kidney failure by age five. At adult age, kidney survival was equally poor (20-25%) across all disorders. A number of sequence variants, including putative local founder mutations, had divergent clinical presentations, in terms of onset age, kidney and non-kidney manifestations and kidney survival. Milder kidney phenotype was present in those with biallelic truncating variants within the COQ8B variant cohort. Thus, significant intra- and inter-familial phenotype variability was observed, suggesting both genetic and non-genetic modifiers of disease severity.
