ELISA validation and ROC analysis. (A) Serum IFI44 (Left) and IFIT3 (Right) were measured in 51 healthy controls and 73 LN patients by ELISA. (B) Receiver operator characteristic (ROC) curves show the diagnostic performance of serum IFI44 (blue) and IFIT3 (green) in identifying LN patients. (C) 73 LN patients were divided into two groups (Inactive LN=22, Active LN=51) according to renal biopsy and the Systemic Lupus Erythematosus Disease Activity Index (SLEDAI). (D) ROC curves of IFI44, anti-dsDNA, C3, and C4 in differentiating active LN from inactive LN patients. (E) Serum IFI44 was tested in 12 healthy controls and 25 patients with IgA nephropathy. Data shown are mean ± SD by an unpaired t-test. *P < 0.05, **P < 0.01, ****P < 0.0001, ns, no significance; HC, healthy control; LN, lupus nephritis; IgAN, immunoglobulin A nephropathy.
