Abstract:
Objective To investigate the level change of interleukin-37(IL-37) and its clinical significance in the patients with chronic kidney disease(CKD) and nephrotic syndrome(NS) .Methods 57 cases of CKD (CKD group) and 13 cases of NS (NS group) in the Affiliated Donghua Hospital of Sun Yat-sen University from September to November 2016 were selected .The CKD group was redivided into the CKD stage 1 ,stage 3 and stage 5 groups .At the same time 22 individuals undergoing physical examina-tion were selected as the healthy control group .The ELISA sandwich method was adopted to detect the plasma IL-37 level .Then the detection results were statistically analyzed .Results The level of plasma IL-37 in the CKD group and NS group was significant-ly higher than that in the healthy control group ,the difference was statistically significant (P<0 .01);the level of plasma IL-37 had no statistical difference among the CKD stage 1 group ,CKD stage 3 group and CKD stage 5 group(P>0 .05);the plasma IL-37 lev-el after treatment in the CKD group and NS group was decreased compared with before treatment ,the difference was statistically significant(P<0 .01);the plasma IL-37 level in CKD patients was positively correlated with the WBC and lymphocyte cells levels . Conclusion The patients with CKD and NS have high level expression of plasma IL-37 ,which might have good auxiliary diagnostic value for CKD and NS .
