Clinicopathological and genetic characteristics in Chinese patients with lipoprotein glomerulopathy
Abstract
Objective: In this study, we report on 16 Chinese patients with biopsy-proven lipoprotein glomerulopathy (LPG) investigated for clinical manifestations, pathological characteristics and apolipoprotein E (apoE) genetic analysis. Methods: A retrospective analysis of the clinical and pathological features was made in 16 patients with LPG. Plasma concentrations and genetic analysis of apoE were completed. Glomerular depositions of apoA, apoB and apoE were detected using monoclonal antibodies on cryostatic sections in all patients. Results: All 16 patients presented with edema; 14 presented with nephrotic syndrome. Anemia, microhematuria, hypertension and abnormal levels of serum creatinine were detected in 12 patients (75%), 11 patients (69%), 8 patients (50%) and 6 patients (37.5%), respectively. All the patients showed hypertriglyceridemia, while only 7 showed slight hypercholesterolemia. The characteristic features of hyperlipidemia in these patients were approximately in accord with those of type IV hyperlipoproteinemia. Concentrations of apoB correlated with urine protein, triglycerides and cholesterol (r=0.558, p=0.038; r=0.6, p=0.023; r=0.65, p=0.012; respectively). No correlation was found between serum level of apoE and clinicopathological features in patients with LPG. The genotype of apoE-ε3/ε4 is the predominant one in Chinese patients with LPG. No mutated forms of apoE were found, compared with previous reports. Conclusion: Unique clinicopathological and genetic features were found in this group of Chinese patients with LPG compared with the general population, including lower serum levels of apoE and cholesterol, as well as anemia and microhematuria. Multiple factors other than apoE were involved in the pathogenesis of LPG.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
