The relationship between quantitative splenic uptake of sulfur colloid and immunoglobulin M level in serum was studied in 15 patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). Splenic function correlated positively with IgM level (r = 0.58, p = 0.02) and inversely with antibody titre to n-DNA (r = -0.74, p = 0.003), and was reduced (p greater than 0.001) in patients with depressed IgM levels. IgM level in serum may be a useful correlate of splenic phagocytic function in SLE patients.
对15例系统性红斑狼疮(SLE)患者进行了研究,以探讨硫胶体脾脏摄取量与血清免疫球蛋白M水平之间的关系。脾脏功能与IgM水平呈正相关(r = 0.58,p = 0.02),与抗n - DNA抗体滴度呈负相关(r = - 0.74,p = 0.003),且在IgM水平降低的患者中脾脏功能降低(p>0.001)。血清IgM水平可能是SLE患者脾脏吞噬功能的一个有用的相关指标。
