Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
To determine the correlation between serum uromodulin levels and renal histopathological Activity Index (AI) and Chronicity Index (CI) in patients with biopsy-proven lupus nephritis.
3years
Eligibility Criteria
Nephrology and Rheumatology unit, Assiut University Hospital
You may qualify if:
- Group I: 30 patients with different classes of Lupus Nephritis. These cases are biopsy proven
- LN. Histological diagnosis of LN is according to the revised International Society of
- Nephrology/ Renal Pathology Society (ISN/RPS) classification and modified National Institute of Health (NIH) activity and chronicity indices (Bajema et al 2018) .
- Biopsy-proven lupus nephritis at the time of uromodulin blood sampling.
- Group II: 10 patients with active SLE without renal involvement and with SLEDAI score ≥6
- Group III: 10 patients with non-active SLE with SLEDAI score \<6
- Group IV: 30 patients with primary forms of non-lupus Glomerulonephritis
- Group V: 10 healthy control subjects
- All cases are adults ≥18 years.
- Diagnosis of systemic lupus erythematosus according to the 2019 EULAR/ACR Classification
You may not qualify if:
- .Pregnancy or lactation
- AKI secondary to pre renal OR post renal cause (from clinical history and imaging).
- End-stage renal disease requiring dialysis
- Active infection or sepsis
- Active malignancy (either under treatment or within 5 years of successful treatment)
- History of renal transplantation
- Heart failure with NYHA III and IV
- Hhistory of other autoimmune diseases or diabetes mellitus
