Filter by:The present study aims to: Compare clinical features, hematological indices and disease activity between the early-onset and late-onset patients with systemic lupus erythematosus. Evaluate the relationship between hematological indices (mean platelet volume, platelet lymphocyte ratio and neutrophil lymphocyte ratio) and Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) disease manifestations and activity.
The study hypothesis: Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is a chronic autoimmune disease with a broad spectrum of clinical manifestations. Its mechanisms are not well understood. It is known that its development is influenced by genetic factors and gender. However, it is believed that in some patients with a specific genetic predisposition, certain environmental factors such as chemicals, including drugs and toxins, smoking, or infections may initiate the development of the disease. Of particular importance seem to be infections, which by stimulating the immune system can induce new symptoms or exacerbate existing ones. For this reason, links between the microbiome and the clinical course of SLE are being sought. Most available studies concern the intestinal microbiome. So far, the relationship between the genital tract microbiota and the clinical picture of SLE has not been documented. Aim of the study: This study aims to identify and differentiate the genital tract microbiota of women with a diagnosis of systemic lupus, IgA nephropathy and a control group of healthy women. The results will be correlated with the clinical presentation of these diseases. In addition, the isolated bacterial strains will be secured for further study.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate long-term safety and tolerability of dapirolizumab pegol treatment.
SLE disease course is characterized by unpredictable relapses and remissions in the majority of patients. However, in a small proportion (approximately 5%), SLE presents with a monophasic pattern, meaning that these patients have active disease before and immediately after diagnosis and after some time they achieve prolonged remission (for 12 years on average). Interestingly, about half of these patients do so and require no medications. On the other end of the clinical spectrum, approximately 50% of the patients demonstrate persistent disease activity and usually have the highest risk for developing co-morbidities and irreversible damage. A major goal of clinical research in SLE is to improve disease management based on disease course. By better characterizing SLE disease course we hope to better identify patients early in the disease course for targeted therapies to prevent and or reduce future SLE complications. The overall objective of our project is to define distinct phenotypes of SLE based on disease course, clinical features, pathogenic mechanisms, genetic factors and relevant biomarkers.
prospective analytical study of all pregnant ladies with systemic lupus in Beni-suef localities
The purpose of this study is to investigate the role of nailfold capillaroscopy in the assessment of patients with Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE). Primary endpoint: - To compare the frequency of major capillaroscopic abnormalities in patients with SLE and healthy controls. Secondary endpoints: - To compare the frequency of major capillaroscopic abnormalities in patients with active and non-active SLE / active SLE and healthy controls / non-active SLE and healthy controls. - To study the association of different capillaroscopic parameters and the status of subjects (SLE / active SLE / non-active SLE / healthy controls).
The purpose of this study is to check the improvement in quality of life in patients with systemic lupus incorporated into a routine of physical activity. Randomized controlled blinded trial, 63 patients aged 42.9 ± 14.4 and diagnosis of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) according to the criteria of the College American Rheumatology, 1997. After randomization patients were allocated into 3 groups, control group (CG) (n = 21), training cardiovascular (CT) (n = 20), resistance training (RT) (n = 22), performing 12 weeks of intervention with a frequency of three times weeks and were evaluated at two different times (T0 and T12). As primary outcome quality of life was assessed by the inventory Generic Assessment of quality of life by the Medical Outcomes Study 36 -- Healthy ItemShort Form Survey (SF36) and as secondary outcomes functional capacity evaluation of pain symptoms (visual scale analogue pain [VAS]), intensity of symptoms of depression (Beck Depression Inventory [BDI]), index of disease activity (Systemic Lupus Disease Activity Inventory Erythmatodud [SLEDAI]), capacity aerobic (walking test of 12 minutes [T12]), subjective perception effort (subjective scale of Borg [Borg]), limb muscle strength lower (analog dynamometer [strength]), electrical activity member lower (surface electromyography [EMG]), amount of products (inventory amount of Medicines).
