Chandigarh 21st Feb, 2019:- The Department of Nephrology is organizing a two days CME on Lupus
Nephritis and Glomerular Nephritis on the 22nd and 23rd of
February, 2019.
Both Lupus Nephritis and Glomerulonephritis are an important cause
of Kidney Disease and account for up to 20% of end stage renal disease
requiring dialysis. The management of these clinical entities is
controversial, given paucity of evidence. In the current CME, we
intend to discuss various aspects of Glomerulonephritis, the speakers include
world authority in Glomerular Disease from United States of America and Hong
Kong. Difficult clinical scenarios for which there are no guidelines
would be discussed to improve the existing knowledge on Glomerular Disease.
Prof. Jai Radha krishnan from Columbia University, New
York, USA will be speaking on “Anti-phospholipid antibody syndrome”, update on
the management of TMA and FSGS. Prof Brad Rovin from USA will be
speaking on “Emerging Therapies in Glomerular Nephritis and role of Kidney
Biopsy in Lupus Nephritis”. Dr. DTM Chan from Hong Kong would be speaking on
“Current Status of Lupus Nephritis management”. Prof. Praveen Singhal and Prof.
Sumanth Chugh would speak on “Advances in the pathogenesis of proteinuric
kidney disease”.
The CME will be attended by 250 members across the country and
