Key Points

  • This research aims to investigate the levels of serum adropin in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) and its association with cardiovascular risk.
  • Conducted a case-control study comparing serum adropin levels in SLE patients and healthy controls.
  • Analyzed the relationship between serum adropin levels and hypertension (HTN).
  • Assessed the potential role of adropin as a predictor for coronary artery disease.
  • Serum adropin levels significantly decreased in patients with SLE compared to healthy controls.
  • A strong independent association between low serum adropin levels and hypertension was observed.
  • Findings suggest adropin could serve as a predictor of coronary artery disease in individuals with rheumatic diseases.

Abstract

Our study revealed a significant decrease in serum adropin levels among patients with SLE compared to healthy controls. The independent association between serum adropin levels and HTN suggests that adropin may serve as a potential predictor of coronary artery disease in individuals with rheumatic diseases. Results deepen our understanding of adropin in SLE, emphasizing its clinical relevance for assessing cardiovascular risk in this population.
