The anti-CXCR3 antibody level correlated negatively with the total protein level after 2 years of observation (p = 0.03, Figure 13) and with the basic albumin level (p = 0.02, Figure 14) and albumin level after 1 month of observation (p = 0.04, Figure 15) in the systemic lupus erythematosus group. The gene discussed is ALB; the disease is systemic lupus erythematosus.
