Overview

Historical Perspective

In 1812, Wells showed that a latent period was required for edema and red urine seem to be present; these findings were observed to be more common in patients of the same families rather than equally distributed along the general population.[1][2]

In 1827, Richard Bright and colleagues showed there was a relation between edema and the urine findings.[1] Fifty years later, Klebs and colleagues showed that the clinical findings were consistent with a form of glomerulonephritis that was associated with the period following scarlet fever.[1] Reichel and Osman further elaborated on PSGN and revealed detailed findings and description of the disease, its prevalence, its clinical findings, and its outcome in 1905 and 1933, respectively (17342179). Although well recognized before the 20th century, it was not until 1903 when Clemens von Pirquet hypothesized the presence of immune complexes that might be the culprit of PSGN, based on his clinical observations during his pediatric residency training.[1] His theory was outlined and sent to the Academy of Sciences in Vienna and was read in the Academy in 1908.[1]

The contribution of many scientists following the early works; such as those that determined that group A streptococcal infections were the etiology behind scarlet fever[1], and those that showed that streptococcal antigens were present in some forms of glomerulonephritis.[1] In 1941, Seegal and Earle determined the nephritogenic properties of streptococcal strains and differentiated streptococcal strains based on their nephrogenic vs. rheumatic complication.[1]
