Anticardiolipin Antibody Plays a More Important Role Than Anti-β2-Glycoprotein I Antibody in Activating Complement in Patients with Lupus Nephritis.

What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Objective: This research aimed to explore the correlation between antiphospholipid antibodies (aPLs) and complement activation in lupus nephritis (LN) patients. Methods: A retrospective analysis was carried out on patients diagnosed with LN based on renal biopsy from June 2019 to June 2022. The study assessed levels of IgM, IgA, and IgG subtypes of anticardiolipin antibodies (aCLs) and anti-β2-glycoprotein I (anti-β2-GPI) antibodies. Pathological and clinical data were collected concurrently with the renal biopsy. Results: The analysis included 76 LN patients, with 44.7% testing positive for aPLs. LN patients with positive aPLs exhibited increased hematuria, higher SLEDAI scores, reduced serum C3 and C4 levels, and more C1q deposits in the glomerulus compared to those with negative aPLs ( Conclusion: This investigation suggests that aPLs, particularly IgG-aCLs, may be associated with the severity of LN and could contribute to the activation of classical complement pathways.
