Serum anti-high mobility box protein-1 (HMGB1) antibody levels determined by ELISA. a The average level of anti-HMGB1 was significantly higher in the systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) patients (median 132.5 arbitrary units (AU)) compared to the healthy controls (median 81 AU). Dashed line indicates the cut-off level for a positive test. Solid lines represent median values. Note the axis break. b Serum levels in SLE patients categorised into renal non-active, renal active (see text for definitions), non-renal active with systemic lupus erythematosus disease activity index (SLEDAI)-2K ≤4, and non-renal active with SLEDAI-2K >4
