Thirtyhealthy children who underwent medical examinationfor enrollment,undersize or overweight in the outpatientdepartment of pediatric health care and inpatient departmentof Endocrinology were selected as healthy controlgroup. Serum and urine samples were collected, inwhich the levels of sPD-1 and sPD-L1 were detected byenzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). The correlationbetween serum and urine sPD-1,sPD-L1 levelsand lymphocyte subsets,urinary protein were analyzedby Pearson and Spearman correlation analysis.展开更多
