Abstract
The PROPKD score has been proposed to evaluate the risk of the progression to end stage renal failure in patients with autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD), based on gender (male: 1point), hypertension under 35 years old (2 points), urological event under 35 years old (2 points), and gene mutation (PKD1 truncating mutation: 4 points, PKD1 non-truncating mutation: 2 points, PKD2: 0 point). Although tolvaptan has benefits for renal involvement, whether PROPKD score could predict future renal involvement in patients with ADPKD treated with tolvaptan is unknown.
