Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2018 at "Clinical Rheumatology"
DOI: 10.1007/s10067-018-4115-1
Abstract: Lupus nephritis (LN) is an important cause of morbidity and mortality in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) often leading to end-stage renal failure (ESRF) and necessitating renal transplantation (rTp). Optimal timing of rTp in… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.jaad.2020.12.013
Abstract: BACKGROUND Limited data suggest that hydroxychloroquine may affect risk of cardiovascular disease in patients with lupus erythematosus (LE). OBJECTIVE To investigate whether hydroxychloroquine treatment is associated with major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) (myocardial infarction, ischemic… read more here.

DOI: 10.1093/rheumatology/keaa111.165
Abstract: Despite the improvement in survival of patients with lupus nephritis (LN) over the last decades, LN is associated with progression to end-stage renal disease (ESRD) in a significant proportion of patients. We aimed to investigate… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/1756-185x.13254
Abstract: Renal responses to immunosuppressive agents in patients with lupus nephritis (LN) differ depending on ethnicity, follow‐up duration, disease severity and treatment. Thus, we evaluated predictors of complete remission during the first year following immunosuppressive treatment… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/nep.12866
Abstract: Increasing evidence shows that the cardiac involvement attributes to the mortality of patients with lupus nephritis (LN) and echocardiography provides a valid measurement for cardiac disease. However, the association between echocardiographic parameters and mortality in… read more here.

DOI: 10.1136/annrheumdis-2019-eular.2517
Abstract: Background Reduced renal function is associated with worse renal outcome in patients with lupus nephritis (LN). However, there is insufficient knowledge regarding renal function recovery in patients with LN with reduced baseline renal function. Objectives… read more here.
