The records were obtained from 2 major institutions: King Chulalongkorn Memorial Hospital, a large university\u2010based hospital, and the Kidney Center Bangkok Hospital, which provides pathology services to hospitals throughout Thailand. The study included native kidney biopsies from all provinces in Thailand, excluding paediatric patients, kidney transplant recipients, and cases of inadequate and repeated biopsies. Patient demographics, indications for biopsy, and final glomerular diagnoses were compared across different hospital practice settings: university (UVH), private (PVH) and public (PBH).<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Results<\/jats:title><jats:p>A total of 5893 eligible native kidney biopsies were identified from a pool of 7005 biopsies conducted over a 15\u2010year period in 25 provinces throughout Thailand. The 3 most common indications for biopsy were suspected kidney involvement in systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) (29%), nephrotic syndrome (NS) (29%), and acute glomerulonephritis (AGN)\/rapidly progressive glomerulonephritis (RPGN) (13%). The leading indication for biopsy differed across practice types, with suspected kidney involvement in SLE being the primary indication in UVH, while NS took precedence in both PBH and PVH practices. Notably, UVH performed fewer kidney biopsies for asymptomatic urinary abnormalities and diabetes\u2010related indications compared with PVH and PBH. The leading glomerular diagnoses correlated with the biopsy indications, with lupus nephritis (LN) being the most common diagnosis in UVH and PBH practices, whiles immunoglobulin A nephropathy was the predominant diagnosis in PVH practice.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title><jats:p>Hospital practice types significantly impact the prevalence of glomerular pathologic diagnosis patterns in kidney biopsy data, highlighting the importance of considering this influence in epidemiological comparisons.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1111\/nep.14202","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2023,8,3]],"date-time":"2023-08-03T12:28:31Z","timestamp":1691065711000},"page":"24-34","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":4,"title":["Exploring hospital practice types and their impact on glomerular pathologic patterns: Insights from the largest kidney biopsy cohort in Thailand"],"prefix":"10.1111","volume":"28","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-2996-8934","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Talerngsak","family":"Kanjanabuch","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Division of Nephrology, Department of Medicine, Faculty of Medicine Chulalongkorn University  Bangkok Thailand"},{"name":"Center of Excellence in Kidney Metabolic Disorders, Faculty of Medicine Chulalongkorn University  Bangkok Thailand"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-0074-1592","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Suramath","family":"Isaranuwatchai","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Division of Nephrology, Department of Medicine, Chulabhorn Hospital, HRH Princess Chulabhorn College of Medical Science Chulabhorn Royal Academy  Bangkok Thailand"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-0428-973X","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Tanawin","family":"Nopsopon","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Preventive and Social Medicine, Faculty of Medicine Chulalongkorn University  Bangkok Thailand"},{"name":"Harvard T.H.
