Abstract:
Objective To explore the levels of serum chitinase protein 40(YKL-40)and soluble CD163(sCD163)in children with henoch-schonlein purpura nephritis(HSPN)and their prognostic value.Methods Chil-dren with HSPN treated in the hospital from December 2019 to June 2023 were selected as HSPN group(n=110),while children with Henoch-Schonlein purpura(HSP)were selected as HSP group(n=110)and healthy children were selected as control group(n=110).The levels of urinary microalbumin(U-MA),urea nitrogen(BUN),serum creatinine(Scr),YKL-40 and sCD163 were detected.Pearson and Spearman methods were used to analyze the correlation between serum YKL-40 and sCD163 levels and U-MA,BUN,Scr and the severity of the disease.Receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve was drawn to analyze the predictive val-ue of serum YKL-40 and sCD163 for the prognosis of HSPN patients.Results The levels of serum YKL-40,sCD163,U-MA,BUN and Scr in HSPN group were higher than those in control group and HSP group(P＜0.05),and the levels of serum YKL-40,sCD163,U-MA,BUN and Scr in HSP group were higher than those in control group(P＜0.05).With the development of the disease severity,the serum levels of YKL-40,sCD163,U-MA,BUN and Scr in children with HSPN gradually increased(P＜0.05).The serum levels of YKL-40 and sCD163 in children with HSPN were positively correlated with the levels of U-MA,BUN and Scr(r=0.653,0.521,0.585,P＜0.05;r=0.632,0.507,0.571,P＜0.05),and were positively correlated with the severity of the disease(r=0.428,0.417,P＜0.05).The levels of YKL-40 and sCD163 in poor prognosis group were higher than those in good prognosis group(P＜0.05).The area under the curve(AUC)of serum YKL-40 and SPD163 in predicting the prognosis of children with HSPN was the largest,which was better than that of indi-vidual prediction(Zcombination of the two-YKL-40=2.438,P=0.015,Zcombination of the two-sCD163=2.276,P=0.023).The re-sults of decision curve analysis(DCA)showed that when the high risk threshold was 0.05-0.97,the net bene-fit rate of predicting the prognosis of HSPN children by combining YKL-40 and sCD163 was higher than that predicted by YKL-40 and sCD163 alone.Conclusion The serum levels of YKL-40 and sCD163 in children with HSPN are increased,and the combination of them has high predictive value for the prognosis of children with HSPN.
