BTG3 and nephrosclerosis: MSC treatment resulted in lower levels of ds-DNA (OR = − 29.58, 95% CI − 29.58, − 17.99; P < 0.00001), ANA (OR = − 70.93, 95% CI − 104.55, − 37.32; P < 0.0001), Scr (OR = − 8.20, 95% CI − 12.71, − 3.69; P = 0.0004), BUN (OR = − 14.57, 95% CI − 20.50, − 8.64; P < 0.00001), proteinuria (OR = − 4.26, 95% CI − 5.15 to − 3.37; P < 0.00001), and renal sclerosis score (OR = − 1.92, 95% CI − 2.66 to − 1.18; P < 0.00001), and MSC treatment could get higher levels of albumin.
