Immunosuppressive treatment vs placebo/no treatment/non‐immunosuppressive supportive treatment

End‐stage renal disease · primary membranous nephropathy in adults with nephrotic syndrome

Immunosuppressive treatment probably leads to lower end‐stage kidney disease at final compared with placebo/no treatment/non‐immunosuppressive supportive treatment (moderate certainty).
