Area occupied by endothelial cells in IgAN and MCD glomerular capillaries. The mean percentage of the total capillary loop area occupied by endothelial cells (ECA%) was measured in 32 IgAN and in 12 MCD biopsies as described in Methods. a ECA% distribution in the two groups of biopsies, in MCD the mean was significantly lower than in IgAN (61.83 ± 8.39 versus 76.81 ± 5.89, P < 0.0001), the standard deviation for each value was < than 20 % and was omitted. b, c Glomeruli showing CD31 positive endothelial cells in IgAN and MCD (original magnification × 20)
