Comparison of MIF and adipokines in HCs, renal SLE, and non-renal SLE. HCs: healthy controls. SLE: Systemic lupus erythematosus. Renal SLE includes patients with proteinuria higher than 0.5 g/day as the sole criterion or in conjunction with persistent haematuria, leucocytes in urine or urine casts by granulocytes or erythrocytes. Comparisons between quantitative variables were performed with the Kruskal-Wallis test. p < 0.05. P values for multiple comparisons were adjusted by Bonferroni correction. ns: p > 0.05. *p < = 0.05, **p < = 0.01, ***p < = 0.001, ****p < = 0.0001
