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
