Task: Answer Verification
Input (English): Question: Do anti-C1q autoantibodies correlate with the occurrence or severity of experimental lupus nephritis?
Answer: The absence of a correlation between the presence of anti-C1q and the occurrence of experimental lupus nephritis contradicts the hypothesis that anti-C1q are pathogenic. However, different pathogenic mechanisms of experimental lupus nephritis and human proliferative lupus nephritis cannot be excluded.
Output (English): no
