Expression levels of PD-1, NKG2D, NKp30 and NKp46 in Vδ1<sup>+</sup> T cells and Vδ2<sup>+</sup> T cells from SLE patients were generally significantly increased, except for expression of NKG2D in Vδ2<sup>+</sup> T cells. Moreover, Vδ2<sup>+</sup> T cells, Vδ1<sup>+</sup> T cells and Vδ1<sup>+</sup>PD-1<sup>+</sup> T cells were associated with disease activity, and an increase in Vδ2<sup>+</sup> T-cell frequency and a decrease in PD-1 expression by γδ-T cells might be associated with effective treatment. Interestingly, our results indicated that Vδ2<sup>+</sup> T cells and their Vδ2<sup>+</sup>NKp30<sup>+</sup> T-cell subpopulation might be associated with renal involvement in SLE.</p><p><strong>Conclusion: </strong>A broad range of anomalies in the proportions of γδ-T-cell subsets and γδ-T cells in SLE patients may be involved in the pathogenesis of SLE. There is a strong association between Vδ2<sup>+</sup> T cells and their Vδ2<sup>+</sup>NKp30<sup>+</sup> T-cell subpopulation and LN occurrence. Our results indicate that γδ-T cells and their subpopulations might be key players in disease immunopathology and renal involvement in SLE.</p>","PeriodicalId":18044,"journal":{"name":"Lupus","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":2.6,"publicationDate":"2024-05-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140175394","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In total, 245 patients were included and distributed as 129 cases (diagnosed by expert pediatric rheumatologists) versus 116 patients in the control group. All relevant clinical information, including history, physical examination findings, and laboratory tests, was documented at the initial presentations. Then, the two sets of SLE classification criteria were applied to both groups to define who's going to meet both or either one of them. The exclusion criteria included those who had insufficient data or had overlapping or undifferentiated diseases. The sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value (PPV), negative predictive value (NPV), receiver operating curve (ROC), and accuracy were calculated for SLICC 2012 and EULAR/ACR 2019 criteria (total scores≥ 10 and ≥ 13). We performed a Chi-squared test to compare sensitivity and specificity of SLICC 2012 and EULAR/ACR 2019.</p><p><strong>Results: </strong>For SLICC (cut-off ≥4 criteria), the sensitivity was found to be 96.9% (95% CI 92.6%-99.4%) and the specificity was 94.8% (95% CI 89.6%-98.32%), with PPV and NPV of 95.4% and 96.5%, respectively. The ROC for it was 0.96 (95% CI 0.93-0.99), and this criterion had an accuracy of 95%. Regarding EULAR/ACR (total score ≥ 10), the performance measure showed a sensitivity of 99.2% and a specificity of 86.2%. Similarly, PPV was 88.9%; while NPV was a little higher (99.0%) than SLICC. The ROC for EULAR/ACR (total score ≥ 10) was 0.93 (95% CI 0.89-0.96), and this criterion had an accuracy of 93%. However, there was no statistically significant difference between the sensitivity and specificity of either using SLICC or EULAR/ACR (total score ≥ 10), as reflected by a <i>p</i>-value of 0.86 using the Chi-squared test. Although applying the EULAR/ACR with a total score of ≥ 13 revealed lower sensitivity (93.8%) than both the SLICC and the EULAR/ACR (total score ≥ 10), the specificity for it was found to increase up to 91.4% (85.7-96.2%) compared to the (86.2%) specificity of the EULAR/ACR (total score ≥ 10).</p><p><strong>Conclusion: </strong>In this cohort among the Saudi population with childhood-onset SLE, the new EULAR/ACR 2019 criteria efficiently enable early detection of SLE, although a more frequent rate of false positives was observed with them.
