Fasting lipids and anticardiolipin antibodies as risk factors for vascular disease in systemic lupus erythematosus.
Fasting cholesterol, triglyceride, low density lipoprotein cholesterol, high density lipoprotein cholesterol, apoprotein AI, and apoprotein B were measured in 64 patients with systemic lupus erythematosus to assess the risk factors for vascular disease. The relation between the lipid profile, steroid treatment, the presence of anticardiolipin antibodies, and the prevalence of vascular disease w...
متن کاملRisk factors for spontaneous abortion.
A case-control study was conducted to evaluate risk factors for spontaneous abortions. Cases were 94 women with two or more unexplained miscarriages (after exclusion of genetic, endocrine and Müllerian factors) and no term pregnancy, controls were 176 women admitted for normal delivery to the same clinic where cases were identified. Questions were asked about personal characteristics and habits...
متن کاملAnticardiolipin Antibodies in Juvenile Rheumatoid Arthritis and Systemic Lupus Erythematosus
Background: Antiphospholipid antibody syndrome (APS) can either occur as a primary syndrome or associated with other autoimmune diseases such as systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). Anticardiolipin antibody (aCL) of IgG and/or IgM isotype in blood, measured by a standardized ELISA is the most acceptable laboratory criteria. APS IgG isotype, particularly IgG2 subclass is more strongly associated ...
متن کاملLupus anticoagulants, anticardiolipin antibodies, and cerebral ischemia.
We studied 23 patients suffering cerebral ischemia who also had laboratory evidence of either a lupus anticoagulant (LA) or an abnormal anticardiolipin antibody (ACA). Four patients had lupus or a lupus-like illness, three had drug-induced lupus, and 16 had no overt evidence of collagen-vascular disease. Cerebral ischemic events were multiple in 71% of the patients; two patients presented with ...
متن کاملLupus anticoagulant, anticardiolipin antibodies, fetal loss, and systemic lupus erythematosus.
UPUS ANTICOAGULANTS (LA) and anticardioL lipin (ACL) antibodies (ACLA) belong to a heterogenous group of antibodies directed against negatively charged pho~pholipids.l-~ However, more recent studies would suggest that these antibodies are directed to epitopes of other proteins that are complexed with negatively charged phospholipid~>-~ Although antiphospholipid antibodies are frequently found i...
