Abstract:
Objective:To analyze the impact and diagnostic value of apoB/apoA1 on lupus nephritis (LN) and its renal dysfunction.Methods:A total of 134 patients diagnosed with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) at the Taihe Hospital of Anhui University of Traditional Chinese Medicine from July 2019 to January 2023 were selected and divided into LN group ( n=82) and simple SLE group ( n=52). According to the glomerular filtration rate (e-GFR), LN was divided into a group with normal renal function ( n=42) and a group with renal insufficiency ( n=40). We compared the differences in clinical data between different groups and analyzed the diagnostic value of apoB, apoA1, and apoB/apoA1 for LN and its renal insufficiency. Results:The results of binary logistic regression analysis showed that apoB/apoA1, SLE disease activity index (SLEDAI), anti double stranded DNA (dsDNA), complement 3 (C3), and albumin (ALB) were independent influencing factors for LN ( OR=4.033, 1.179, 3.148, 0.374, 0.879, all P<0.05). The area under the curve (AUC) of apoB, apoA1, and apoB/apoA1 for diagnosing LN were 0.623, 0.662, and 0.742, respectively. The diagnostic efficacy of apoB/apoA1 was higher than that of apoB and apoA1, and the differences are statistically significant (all P<0.05). Regardless of whether confounding factors were adjusted or not, apoB/apoA1 were all risk factors for LN with e-GFR>60 ml/(min·1.73 m 2), e-GFR 30-60 ml/(min·1.73 m 2), and e-GFR<30 ml/(min·1.73 m 2) (all P<0.05). ApoB/apoA1, anti dsDNA, C3, and ALB were all independent influencing factors for renal insufficiency LN ( OR=3.778, 2.669, 0.415, 0.884, all P<0.05). The AUC for diagnosing renal insufficiency LN in apoB, apoA1, and apoB/apoA1 were 0.623, 0.640, and 0.730, respectively. The diagnostic efficacy of apoB/apoA1 was higher than that of apoB and apoA1, and the differences were statistically significant (all P<0.05). Conclusions:ApoB/apoA1 is an independent influencing factor for the occurrence of LN and renal insufficiency LN, and has good diagnostic value for LN and renal insufficiency LN.
