Differences in clinico-pathological characteristics and outcomes between proteinase 3-ANCA positivity and myeloperoxidase-ANCA positivity in lupus nephritis
Background Owing to the low prevalence of anti-neutrophil cytoplasmic antibodies (ANCA) in lupus nephritis (LN), there is no study about the differences between proteinase 3 (PR3)-ANCA positivity and myeloperoxidase (MPO)-ANCA positivity in LN until now.

Zusammenfassung: | Background
Owing to the low prevalence of anti-neutrophil cytoplasmic antibodies (ANCA) in lupus nephritis (LN), there is no study about the differences between proteinase 3 (PR3)-ANCA positivity and myeloperoxidase (MPO)-ANCA positivity in LN until now.
Methods
Here we perform a retrospective study to determine whether there are differences in clinic-pathological characteristics and renal outcomes between PR3-ANCA-positive LN patients and MPO-ANCA-positive LN patients.
Results
A total of 26 (27.4%) PR3-ANCA-positive LN patients and 69 (72.6%) MPO-ANCA-positive LN patients (p |
