Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-associated lupus-like glomerulonephritis (GN) is a chronic immune complex disease occurring in HIV-infected patients. Although the light, immunofluorescence, and electron microscopy findings indicate features of lupus nephritis, no evidence of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is observed in the affected patients. We present the case of a 45-year-old Caucasia...
Gut microbiota has been recognized as an important environmental factor in health, as well as in metabolic and immunological diseases, in which perturbation of the host gut microbiota is often observed in the diseased state. However, little is known on the role of gut microbiota in systemic lupus erythematosus. We investigated the effects of host genetics, sex, age, and dietary intervention on ...
Systemic lupus erythematosus, often abbreviated SLE, is a serious autoimmune syndrome that usually affects young women. Most lupus is idiopathic, which means that its cause is unknown, but approximately 10% is associated with the use of specific drugs (Adams and Hess 1991). The diagnosis of drug-induced lupus is made on the same basis as idiopathic lupus; in addition, the symptoms must have beg...
Fibromyalgia has been reported to occur with high prevalence in systemic lupus erythematosus. Data on fibromyalgia in other subsets of lupus erythematosus are not available. Risk factors for fibromyalgia have not been defined. We investigated 60 patients with different subsets of lupus erythematosus for the presence of fibromyalgia, association with clinical and laboratory parameters and diseas...
Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE) is a complex clinical syndrome which its components are less clearly recognized and includes heterogeneous demonstrations engaging both central and peripheral nervous system along with disabling effects. This disease is called "thousand faces" due to these heterogeneous demonstrations. This gap exists while 75% of adults and children with SLE may dea...
Podocytopathy in systemic lupus erythematosus is characterised by diffuse foot process effacement without significant peripheral capillary wall immune deposits as seen on electron microscopy. Lupus podocytopathy falls outside the scope of the current International Society of Nephrology and the Renal Pathology Society classification of lupus nephritis. We present a case of relapsing podocytopath...
The lupus anticoagulant was found in the plasma of 31 of 60 patients with systemic lupus erythematosus and other connective tissue disorders (mixed connective tissue disease, systemic vasculitis, polyarteritis nodosa, primary sicca syndrome, discoid lupus, Behcet's syndrome, and systemic sclerosis). Strong associations were found with biological false positive seroreaction for syphilis and thro...
Sexually active adolescents, including young women with lupus, are at high risk for unplanned pregnancy. Unplanned pregnancy among teens with lupus is associated with an elevated risk of poor maternal and fetal outcomes. The provision of effective contraception is a crucial element of care for a sexually-active young woman with lupus. Unfortunately, providers may be hesitant to prescribe contra...
Atypical Presenting Symptoms of Acute Onset Systemic Lupus Erythematosus with Enteritis and Cystitis
Lupus enteritis and lupus cystitis are relatively rare manifestations of systemic lupus erythematosus. Some patients develop severe complications such as bowel perforation, infarction, obstruction, or irreversible bladder dysfunction. Early diagnosis is critical for management of lupus enteritis and cystitis. We report a 48-year-old Japanese man who presented with initial manifestations of abdo...
Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) can be associated with vascular thrombosis due to antiphospholipid antibodies. Accumulating evidence indicates that renal microvascular thrombosis due to lupus anticoagulant is an independent risk factor for poor renal outcome in lupus nephritis [1, 2]. In this report, we present a young woman with diffuse proliferative lupus nephritis and glomerular microthro...
