(A) The specimen obtained from a 55-year-old male patient with IgA neprhopathy and a urinary klotho-to-creatinine ratio of 30.83 pg/mgCr showed preserved foot process of podocyte. (B) The specimen obtained from a 58-year-old male patient with IgA nephropathy and a urinary klotho-to-creatinine ratio of 0.44 pg/mgCr showed diffuse effacement of foot process (arrows). Scale bar = 5 μm.
