A composite urine biomarker reflects interstitial inflammation in lupus nephritis kidney biopsies  Xiaolan Zhang, Haikady N. Nagaraja, Tibor Nadasdy, Huijuan Song, Alison McKinley, Jason Prosek, Swapna Kamadana, Brad H.

2 Figure 1 Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve for a composite biomarker of renal interstitial inflammation. This ROC curve is based on Equation (1) that combines urine monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 (uMCP-1) and serum creatinine (SCr) to differentiate biopsies with none–mild interstitial inflammation from moderate–severe interstitial inflammation. The area under the curve (AUC) is 0.92. Kidney International  , DOI: ( /ki ) Copyright © 2012 International Society of Nephrology Terms and Conditions

3 Figure 2 Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve for a composite biomarker of renal interstitial fibrosis. This ROC curve is based on Equation (2) that combines urine hepcidin (uHep) and urine protein/creatinine ratio (uPCR) to differentiate biopsies with none–mild interstitial fibrosis from moderate–severe interstitial fibrosis. The area under the curve (AUC) is 0.74. Kidney International  , DOI: ( /ki ) Copyright © 2012 International Society of Nephrology Terms and Conditions
