Abstract
Aim: To explore the correlation of inflammation level and organ involvement in antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibody-associated vasculitis(AAV) patients with Alb and HDL. Materials & methods: Serum levels of Alb and HDL were measured, with AAV patients being grouped according to serum Alb and HDL levels, and indicators reflecting inflammation and renal injury were compared. Results: Serum levels of creatinine (Cr), uric acid and CRP and renal involvement rates were higher in lower Alb patients; Cr, CRP, renal and cardiovascular involvement rates in lower HDL patients were higher. Alb and HDL were negatively correlated with CRP and erythrocyte sedimentation rate. Conclusion:Serum Alb and HDL were good indictors for disease monitoring in AAV.
