AGR+PNI as Predictors of Systemic Lupus Erythematosus Disease Activity

Summary

This study aims to evaluate the clinical utility of combining the albumin to globulin ratio (AGR) and the prognostic nutritional index (PNI) as a predictive model for assessing disease activity in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). By correlating these nutritional and inflammatory markers with clinical manifestations and laboratory parameters, we hope to establish a simple, non-invasive, and cost-effective tool to aid in monitoring disease activity in Systemic lupus erythematosus patients.
