Background/Purpose: Proliferative Lupus Nephritis (PLN) occurs in up to 50% of patients with childhood-onset systemic lupus erythematosus (cSLE). PLN is a significant source of morbidity and…Abstract Number: 961 • 2014 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
Outcome of Lupus Nephritis and Impact on Health Related Quality of Life: Results from an International, Prospective, Inception Cohort Study
Background/Purpose: Improved immunosuppressive therapies have changed the treatment of lupus nephritis (LN) over the past decade. We examined the outcome of LN with current standard…Abstract Number: 2990 • 2014 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
Risk Factors for Posterior Reversible Encephalopathy Syndrome in Systemic Lupus Erythematosus Patients: A Single Center Study
Background/Purpose: Posterior reversible encephalopathy syndrome (PRES) is a well-known but rare complication in systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) patients (Abstract Number: 972 • 2014 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
Racial, Gender and Geographic Differences in Systemic Lupus Erythematous and Lupus Nephritis Mortality Rates in the Unites States, 1968-2010
Title: Racial, Gender and Geographic Differences in Systemic Lupus Erythematous and Lupus Nephritis Mortality Rates in the Unites States, 1968-2010Background/Purpose: Many epidemiologic studies of systemic…Abstract Number: 2738 • 2014 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
Shk-186, a Kv1.3 channel inhibitor That Targets Effector Memory T Cells: Safety and Tolerability in Humans and Its Evaluation in a Model of Rapidly Progressive Glomerulonephritis
Background/Purpose: The voltage-gated potassium channel Kv1.3 is a novel target for the treatment of autoimmune disorders including psoriatic and rheumatic diseases. ShK-186 is an exquisitely specific,…Abstract Number: 962 • 2014 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
A Systematic Review and Network Meta-Analysis of the Risk of Serious Infections with Immunosuppressives for Lupus Nephritis
Background/Purpose To compare the risk of serious infections of immunosuppressive medications used for the treatment of lupus nephritis. Methods We performed an up to date…Abstract Number: 1826 • 2014 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
A Renal Activity Index May Predict Histological Activity in Lupus Nephritis in Children
Background/Purpose Lupus Nephritis (LN) occurs in up to 80% of childhood-onset Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (cSLE) and it has a worse prognosis than adults. The current…Abstract Number: 963 • 2014 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
Reduction in Proteinuria and Normalization of C4 Complement Levels Predict Response to Treatment of Lupus Nephritis with Low-Dose Pulse Cyclophosphamide and Abatacept
Background/Purpose: The response to treatment of lupus nephritis is unpredictable. There is a need to identify clinical and biochemical characteristics that can predict treatment outcome…Abstract Number: 1672 • 2014 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
Facilitating the Medication Decision-Making process—What Do Patients with Lupus Nephritis Say?
Background/Purpose: Low medication adherence in lupus nephritis puts patients at risk for poor outcomes, but to our knowledge, relatively little is known about what patients…Abstract Number: 1667 • 2014 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
Probability of 3 and 6 Month Complete Response in Lupus Nephritis
Background/Purpose: Lupus nephritis is a major cause of morbidity and mortality. The complete response rate is the most sensitive in detecting differences among therapeutic regimens.…
