We have identified 58 patients: 5 patients were lost to follow-up, 4 were excluded due to incomplete medical documentation, 4 were excluded due to secondary condition that could have influenced the course of nephrotic syndrome. For final analysis we included 45 patients that were further divided into IgM positive and IgM negative groups.
