SLE Linked to Increased Risk for Stroke (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) was associated with an increased risk for stroke, including both ischemic and hemorrhagic stroke. "[The] results strongly confirm that SLE represents an independent and substantial risk factor for all stroke subtypes," the authors wrote. The study was led by Jingya Zhang, Zhejiang Chinese Medical University in Hangzhou, China. It was published online on September 15 in Lupus Science & Medicine. Most studies adjusted for major cardiovascular risk factors, though
Add-On Telitacicept Improves Outcomes in Lupus Nephritis (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Patients with proliferative lupus nephritis (LN) treated with telitacicept plus standard of care (SoC) achieved complete renal response in more than two thirds of cases at 24 weeks — substantially higher than with SoC alone. The combination also enabled significant reductions in glucocorticoid dosages while improving disease activity markers. "These data support telitacicept as a pivotal therapeutic strategy for optimising outcomes in patients with proliferative LN," the authors wrote. The study
Maternal Autoimmune Disease Tied to Child Mental Health Risks (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Children born to mothers with systemic autoimmune rheumatic diseases (SARDs) had a 30% higher risk for mental disorders compared with children of mothers without these conditions, a study showed. Maternal systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), primary Sjögren's syndrome (PSS), idiopathic inflammatory myositis (IIM), and systemic sclerosis (SSc) were each associated with increased risks for various childhood mental disorders, particularly anxiety disorders. "Our findings suggest the need for monitor
Childhood Lupus: High Disease Activity Persists in Adulthood (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Adults with childhood-onset systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) experienced persistently higher disease activity well into adulthood compared with those with adult-onset SLE, despite similar rates of damage accrual during follow-up. "[The study] findings suggest earlier recognition, consistent monitoring and timely escalation of therapy during the earlier years of disease can meaningfully alter long-term outcomes. Sustained implementation of treat-to-target strategies and optimised transitional c
Comorbid Fibromyalgia Tied to Falls in Lupus Patients (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) and comorbid fibromyalgia had more than 50% higher risk for recurrent falls and more than 30% higher risk for incident falls compared with matched patients with SLE but no fibromyalgia. Comorbid fibromyalgia was also associated with increased risk for thoracolumbar vertebral fractures and osteoporotic fractures, with the excess risk emerging early in follow-up and persisting throughout 5 years. "Fall risk assessment in SLE patients should incorpor
