Introduction: This systematic literature review analyzed published evidence on IgA nephropathy (IgAN), focusing on US epidemiology, health-related quality of life (HRQoL), and economic burden of illness. Methods: Using Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses guidelines, Embase®, MEDLINE®, Cochrane, and Econlit (January 2010 to June 2020) were searched, along with relevant congresses (2017-2020). Results: Of 123 epidemiologic studies selected for data extraction, 24 reported IgAN diagnosis rates ranging from 6.3% to 29.7% among adult and pediatric patients undergoing renal biopsy, with all reported US rates <15%. No US studies reported IgAN prevalence. A meta-analysis of US studies calculated an annual incidence of 1.29/100 000 people, translating to an annual US incidence of 4236 adults and children. Relative to Europe, the United States had more patients diagnosed with IgAN in later chronic kidney disease stages. US rates of transition to end-stage renal disease (ESRD) ranged from 12.5% to 23% during 3-3.9 years of observation, rising to 53% during 19 years of observation. Across 8 studies reporting HRQoL, pain and fatigue were the most reported symptoms, and patients consistently ranked kidney function and mortality as the most important treatment outcomes. Patients with glomerulopathy reported worse mental health than healthy controls or hemodialysis patients; proteinuria was significantly associated with poorer HRQoL and depression. Conclusion: While economic evidence in IgAN remains sparse, management of ESRD is a major cost driver. IgAN is a rare disease where disease progression causes increasing patient burden, underscoring the need for therapies that prevent kidney function decline and HRQoL deterioration while reducing mortality.

<p><strong>Objective:</strong> The aim of this study was to review the literature about the relationship between gingivitis and oral health-related quality of life (OHRQoL). <strong>Material and methods:</strong> Relevant databases were searched for articles in English, which had been published from October 1990 to February 2014. Two independent examiners selected relevant papers, by initially assessing the abstracts and subsequently the full-text articles. Selected studies were grouped based on clinical and OHRQoL instruments and submitted to qualitative analyses. <strong>Results:</strong> Out of 184 references, twelve were eligible for synthesis. All studies were cross-sectional and reported data from the following five different countries: Chile (n=2), India (n=1), Brazil (n=3), Thailand (n=5) and Sudan (n=1). The number and age of subjects included ranged from 53 to 9133 and from eight to 106 years, respectively. The following six OHRQoL instruments were used: Oral Health Impact Profile (OHIP), OHIP-14, Child Perceptions Questionnaire (CPQ), Oral Impacts on Daily Performance (OIDP), Child-OIDP and Geriatric Oral Health Assessment Index (GOHAI). The different methods to evaluate the presence of gingivitis were: necrotizing ulcerative gingival lesions (n=2), Gingival Index (n=2), Community Periodontal Index (n=7) and gingival bleeding after tooth brushing (n=1). <strong>Conclusion:</strong> This literature review suggests that gingivitis is associated with impairment of OHRQoL. </p>
