title: Significance of haematuria in hypertensive patients.
abstract: Of 409 patients attending a clinic for control of hypertension, 74 (18%) were found to have haematuria, and all those with haematuria had significant renal impairment. The association of raised serum IgA levels and HLA BW35 in these patients suggests that some have the adult form of the IgA/C3 disease described in children.
