Relationship between Clinical Systemic Lupus Erythematosus Symptoms and Indexes of Blood, Renal Function, Liver Function and Immunology

DOI:

10.7727/wimj.2017.148

Synopsis:

To study the relationships between clinical SLE symptoms and indexes of blood, renal function, liver function and immunology. The present study indicated that some biochemical, including RBC, Hb, BUN, albuminuria and cylindruria, liver damage, AST, TG, SSA, AnuA and u1RNP, are closely to the prognosis of SLE, and it’s important to control these biochemical indexes during the treatment period.

ABSTRACT

Objective: This paper aimed to study the relationships between clinical systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) symptoms and indexes of blood, renal function, liver function and immunology.

DOI:

10.7727/wimj.2017.151

Synopsis:

This study determined damage in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus using Systemic Lupus International Collaborating Clinics/American College of Rheumatology (SLICC/ACR) damage index. Musculoskeletal system and osteoporosis were the most common manifestations of damage index in our patients.

ABSTRACT

Objective: To determine the prevalence of Systemic Lupus International Collaborating Clinics/American College of Rheumatology (SLICC/ACR) damage index among systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) patients and to investigate the prevalence of each component of SLICC/ACR damage index.

Antinuclear Antibodies and HLA Class II Alleles in Jamaican Patients with Systemic Lupus Erythematosus

Issue:

Vol 56, Issue 2 (2007)

Pages:

130–3

Synopsis:

A cross-sectional study in which DNA HLA typing methods were used to investigate the associations between HLA and class II alleles and the presence of systemic lupus erythematosus and antinuclear antibodies (ANA) in Jamaicans. The HLA associations with ANA were similar to those found in other ethnic groups, but no significant positive HLA association with SLE was found.

ABSTRACT

Objective: The relationship between human leukocyte antigens class II (HLA) and antinuclear antibodies
was investigated in Jamaican patients with Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE).
