Abstract:Objective: To investigate the correlation between pathological types of lupus nephritis (LN) and laboratory indicators and clinical features. Methods: A total of 406 patients with LN who were admitted to our hospital from January 2020 to February 2023 were selected as the research subjects. LN was divided into six types, including I, II, III, IV, V, and composite types, of which the composite type was II + V, III + V, and IV + V. The relationship between LN clinical classification and pathological type, LN clinical manifestations and pathological type, LN activity score and pathological type, and LN pathological activity index and clinical indicators were analyzed. Results: Among the 406 patients with LN, 273 cases (67.24%) were of renal onset type, which was the highest, and the incidence rates of types II, IV, V, and composite type were higher than that of type III (P<0.05). The incidence rate of asymptomatic type II was higher than that of types IV, V, and composite type (P<0.05). The incidence rate of nephritic syndrome in type III was higher than that in type IV (P<0.05). The incidence rates of nephrotic syndrome in types IV, V, and composite type were higher than that in type II (P<0.05). The incidence rate of renal insufficiency in type IV was higher than that in type II (P<0.05). The detection rates of hypertension in types IV and composite type were significantly higher than those in other types (P<0.05). The incidence rate of hematuria in type IV was higher than that in other types (P<0.05). The incidence rates of hypoproteinemia and massive proteinuria in types V, IV, and composite type were higher than those in types II and III (P<0.05). The level of serum creatinine in type IV was higher than that in other types (P<0.05). The incidence rate of anemia in type IV was higher than that in other types (P<0.05). The positive rates of anti-dsDNA antibody in different pathological types were statistically different (P<0.05), and the positive rate of anti-dsDNA antibody was the lowest in type V and the highest in type IV. The detection rate of low C3 was higher in type IV than in other types (P<0.05). The detection rates of low C3 and low C4 were lower in type V than in other types (P<0.05). Compared with other types, the AI and SLEDAI scores in type IV were the highest (P<0.05). Compared with other types, the CI score in the composite type was the highest (P<0.05). AI was negatively correlated with platelet count, C3, and C4, and positively correlated with 24Upro and SLEDAI (P<0.05). Serum creatinine was positively correlated with AI and CI (P<0.05). Conclusion: The proliferative type is the most common pathological type of LN, and the most common type is IV. The pathological type of LN is correlated with clinical features and laboratory indicators, which is worth considering in clinical practice.
