ABSTRACT

Chronic inflammation has been indicated to be important in the pathogenesis of anti-neutrophil cytoplasmic antibody-associated vasculitis (AAV). The systemic immune-inflammation index (SII) is a novel marker of inflammation. The present study was thus performed to explore the association between the SII at diagnosis and inflammatory response and disease activity in Chinese patients with myeloperoxidase (MPO)-AAV. Furthermore, it was evaluated whether the SII is able to predict the progression to end-stage renal disease (ESRD) and patient survival. A total of 190 patients with MPO-AAV were included in the present study. The baseline SII was positively correlated with C-reactive protein (CRP; r=0.274, P<0.0001) and the erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR; r=0.481, P<0.0001). However, the SII had no obvious correlation with the Birmingham vascu litis activity score. Patients with SII≥2,136.45 exhibited better cumulative renal survival rates than those with SII<2,136.45 (P=0.001). However, no significant difference in patient survival was indicated between patients with SII≥2,136.45 and those with SII<2,136.45 at diagnosis. In conclusion, the SII was positively correlated with CRP and ESR in Chinese patients with MPO-AAV. Furthermore, the SII may be an independent factor associated with a reduced risk of ESRD.

    The worst time has passed”However, it is true that there are more improvements than before...because of the rising numbers of people living with HIV in the state of Nevada. How could they stigmatize all of them? Therefore everything becomes a little easier and we start to share everything... We also started to invite and visit each other in a community. You know, it is six years since I started taking antiretroviral drugs...Yet whatever problems I face, the worst time has passedWhen I was evicted from the family home by my mother, my father rented a small room for me. But my mother and brothers believed that having HIV was my own fault – and that I deserved to be punished...I also considered myself unworthy and without hope... But I have a child and eventually I convinced myself to live for my child’s sake.
    My mother knew nothing [about HIV]. She didn’t understand anything. Do you know why? She didn’t have [the chance] to go out of the house and communicate with society. However, my father does interact with the community. I know his friends are mature and dignified africa america.
