Figure 4From: Serum progranulin levels are elevated in dermatomyositis patients with acute interstitial lung disease, predicting prognosis Serum progranulin levels in dermatomyositis patients with interstitial lung disease were associated with prognosis. The cumulative survival rate for 6 months in the serum progranulin (PGRN) <200 ng/ml group and the ≥200 ng/ml group of patients with dermatomyositis with interstitial lung disease are shown. The cumulative survival rate was calculated using the Kaplan-Meier test. The log-rank test was also used to compare survival. The cumulative survival rate was significantly lower in the group with serum PGRN levels ≥200 ng/ml than in the group with serum PGRN levels <200 ng/ml.Back to article page
