This study looks at two simple blood tests to see if they can help doctors understand and predict how lupus-related kidney disease (lupus nephritis) is progressing. The goal is to improve monitoring and treatment decisions for people with this condition.
This study looks at a simple blood test (called the Systemic Immune Inflammatory Index) to see if it can help doctors understand how active lupus is in your body. It includes people with lupus, especially those with kidney involvement, to find better ways to track the disease.
This study looks at blood and urine markers that may show how active lupus kidney disease is and how it changes over time. It may help doctors better monitor people with active lupus-related kidney inflammation.
This study looks at whether a specific antibody (anti-alpha-actinin) in the blood is linked to active lupus kidney disease. It may help doctors better understand and monitor kidney problems in people with lupus.
This study is looking for biomarkers (clues in your blood, urine, or tissue) that can help predict how well lupus nephritis (kidney inflammation caused by lupus) responds to treatment. It focuses on people who have active kidney disease and are either starting treatment or have been on a stable treatment for at least a month.
This trial is for people who have lupus nephritis, which means lupus affecting the kidneys. It aims to gather high-quality evidence that may help improve how this condition is understood and cared for.
