Urinary Neutrophil Gelatinase-Associated Lipocalin Is a Potential Biomarker for Renal Damage in Patients with Systemic Lupus Erythematosus
Figure 3
Correlations of 24-hour urinary excretion of neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (NGAL) with renal functional parameters and Systemic Lupus Erythematosus Disease Activity Index (SLEDAI) scores in the systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE)-renal group. (a) Correlation between NGAL and serum creatinine levels. (b) Correlation between NGAL and 24-hour creatinine clearance (Ccr). (c) Correlation between NGAL and SLEDAI scores. *.
