Fig 8

Correlation between SLEDAI scores and total FLC, λFLC and κFLC levels in high CRP SLE patients (A) (n = 30) and in low CRP SLE patients (B) (n = 15). A: High CRP SLE patients. r-values are 0.506 (p = 0.004), 0.500 (p = 0.005) and 0.453 (p = 0.012) regarding total FLC, λFLC and κFLC levels, respectively. B: Low CRP SLE patients. r-values are 0.246 (p = 0.378), 0.393 (p = 0.148) and -0.056 (p = 0.844) regarding total FLC, λFLC and κFLC levels, respectively. FLCs—free light chains, SLE—systemic lupus erythematosus, SLEDAI—SLE disease activity index, CRP—C-reactive protein.
