The serum IGBP1 levels were high in patients with LN and were positively correlated with the pathologic activity index. The serum IGBP1 level of 547.45 ng/mL is a valid biomarker for detecting active nephritis. Thus, we recommend that clinicians monitor the serum IGBP1 level of patients with SLE to detect LN.
