Overview
The risk factors that attribute to HIV-associated nephropathy are similar to those seen with HIV.
Risk Factors
The majority of patients developing HIV-associated nephropathy, is through the acquisition of HIV-1. The acquisition of the disease can be attributed to unprotected sexual relations between partners (one partner having HIV), sharing of needles, and or contaminated blood transfusions. However, the greatest risk factor attributed to development of HIV-associated nephropathy is the black race.[1]
