* The page name should be '''"[Disease name] diagnostic study of choice"''', with only the first letter of the title capitalized. Note that the page is called "Diagnostic study of choice."
 
* '''Goal:'''
The most efficient and sensitive test is [[ANAPC2|ANA]], ds-[[DNA]] [[antibodies]] specific test that is utilized for diagnosis of membranous glomerulonephritis. The [[gold standard test]] for the diagnosis of [[renal]] [[biopsy]].
**To describe the most efficient/sensitive/specific test that is utilized for diagnosis of [disease name].
**To describe the gold standard test for the diagnosis of [disease name].
**To describe the diagnostic criteria, which may be based on clinical findings, physical exam signs, pathological findings, lab findings, findings on imaging, or even findings that exclude other diseases.
* As with all microchapter pages linking to the main page, at the top of the edit box put <nowiki>{{CMG}}</nowiki>, your name template, and the microchapter navigation template you created at the beginning.
* Remember to create links within WikiDoc by placing <nowiki>[[square brackets]]</nowiki> around key words which you want to link to other pages. Make sure you makes your links as specific as possible. For example, if a sentence contained the phrase anterior spinal artery syndrome, the link should be to [[anterior spinal artery syndrome]] not [[anterior]] or [[artery]] or [[syndrome]].  For more information on how to create links, click [[here]].
* Remember to follow the same format and capitalization of letters as outlined in the template below.
* You should include the name of the disease in the first sentence of every subsection.

=== Diagnostic Criteria ===
=== Diagnostic Criteria ===
* Here you should describe the details of the diagnostic criteria.
*There are no established criteria for the diagnosis of membranous glomerulonephritis.
*Always mention the name of the criteria/definition you are about to list (e.g. modified Duke criteria for the diagnosis of endocarditis / 3rd universal definition of MI) and cite the primary source of where this criteria/definition is found.
*Although not necessary, it is recommended that you include the criteria in a table. Make sure you always cite the source of the content and whether the table has been adapted from another source.
*Be very clear as to the number of criteria (or threshold) that needs to be met out of the total number of criteria.
*Distinguish criteria based on their nature (e.g. clinical criteria / pathological criteria/ imaging criteria) before discussing them in details.
*To view an example (endocarditis diagnostic criteria), click [[Endocarditis diagnosis|here]]
*If relevant, add additional information that might help the reader distinguish various criteria or the evolution of criteria (e.g. original criteria vs. modified criteria).
*You may also add information about the sensitivity and specificity of the criteria, the pre-test probability, and other figures that may help the reader understand how valuable the criteria are clinically.
* [Disease name] is mainly diagnosed based on clinical presentation. There are no established criteria for the diagnosis of [disease name].
* There is no single diagnostic study of choice for [disease name], though [disease name] may be diagnosed based on [name of criteria] established by [...].
 
* The diagnosis of [disease name] is made when at least [number] of the following [number] diagnostic criteria are met: [criterion 1], [criterion 2], [criterion 3], and [criterion 4].
* The diagnosis of [disease name] is based on the [criteria name] criteria, which includes [criterion 1], [criterion 2], and [criterion 3].
 
* [Disease name] may be diagnosed at any time if one or more of the following criteria are met:
** Criteria 1
** Criteria 2
** Criteria 3
 
IF there are clear, established diagnostic criteria:
*The diagnosis of [disease name] is made when at least [number] of the following [number] diagnostic criteria are met: [criterion 1], [criterion 2], [criterion 3], and [criterion 4].
*The diagnosis of [disease name] is based on the [criteria name] criteria, which include [criterion 1], [criterion 2], and [criterion 3].
*The diagnosis of [disease name] is based on the [definition name] definition, which includes [criterion 1], [criterion 2], and [criterion 3].
IF there are no established diagnostic criteria: 
*There are no established criteria for the diagnosis of [disease name].

Overview

The most efficient and sensitive test is ANA, ds-DNA antibodies specific test that is utilized for diagnosis of membranous glomerulonephritis. The gold standard test for the diagnosis of renal biopsy.

Diagnostic Study of Choice

Gold standard/Study of choice:

  • Renal biopsy is the gold standard test for the diagnosis of membranous glomerulonephritis[1]

The diagnostic study of choice for membranous glomerulonephritis is:

Diagnostic Test:
Stage Glomerular Basement Membrane Immunofluorescence Electron Microscopy
Stage 1 Normal or slightly thickned BM Fine granular IgG, C3 Scattered small subepithelial electron dense deposits no foot effacement
Stage 2 Moderately thickened BM with spikes and vacuolization Granular IgG, C3 Diffuse spikes due to subepithelial deposits, diffuse foot process effacement
Stage 3 Moderately thickened BM residual spikes and vacuoles Chain like appearance IF, coarsely granular IgG, C3 Intramembraneous deposits, spikes, neomembrane formation and diffuse foot process effacement
Stage 4 Markedly thick GBM, few spikes, vacoules and glomerulosclerosis Focal IgG, C3 Sclerotic GBM, few deposits and lacunae
Sequence of Diagnostic Studies

The urinalysis and comprehensive chemistry panel should be performed when:[2]

  • The patient presented with signs of hypertension and proteinurea
  • Complete blood count
  • Urinaylsis
  • A positive ANA, anti dsDNA suggest the diagnosis of membranous glomerulonephritis
  • To confirm the diagnosis we do renal biopsy

Diagnostic Criteria

  • There are no established criteria for the diagnosis of membranous glomerulonephritis.
