Lower female predominance was observed in the late onset patients ( p\u2009=\u20090.06). The interval between presentation of lupus nephritis and diagnosis was significantly longer in the late onset group than in the early onset group ( p\u2009=\u20090.003). In comparison with early onset group, patients in the late onset group had significantly lower scores for endocapillary hypercellularity ( p\u2009=\u20090.041), subendothelial hyaline deposits ( p\u2009=\u20090.022) and glomerular leukocyte infiltration ( p\u2009=\u20090.032), but had significantly higher scores for tubular atrophy ( p\u2009=\u20090.037) and interstitial fibrosis ( p\u2009=\u20090.018). Regarding long-term survival and renal outcome, there was no significant difference between the two groups, although it seemed that the early onset group had a poorer renal outcome ( p\u2009=\u20090.077, hazard ratio (HR)\u2009=\u20093.909, 95% CI: 0.862\u201317.726).<\/jats:p>\n                  <jats:p>Conclusions: Patients with late onset lupus nephritis were usually diagnosed later; they had milder active lesions and more severe chronic lesions in renal pathology.
