==Overview==
Causes of nephritic syndrome vary by age.  Causes of nephritic syndrome include [[post-infectious glomerulonephritis]], [[IgA nephropathy]] ([[Berger disease]]), thin basement membrane disease, and [[rapidly progressive glomerulonephritis]].
 
== Causes ==
Age plays an important role in identifying the cause of nephritic syndrome. Nonetheless, age should not be the only factor in defining the etiology of nephritic syndrome.
