Demographic and Clinical Characteristics of Patients with SLE Across 5 Registries – the LupusNet Federated Data Network
Background/Purpose: Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is an autoimmune disease with a broad range of clinical manifestations and a high unmet need across patient populations. Real-world…Abstract Number: 2658 • ACR Convergence 2024
Hypovitaminosis D in Lupus Nephitis
Background/Purpose: The prevalence of vitamin D deficiency is higher in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) compared to the healthy population, and recent studies have…Abstract Number: 0285 • ACR Convergence 2024
Anti-THSD7A Antibodies Are Not Broadly Associated with IgG4-Related Disease or IgG4-Related Membranous Nephropathy
Background/Purpose: Membranous nephropathy (MN) is a known manifestation of IgG4-related disease (IgG4-RD). Unlike primary MN, most patients with IgG4-related MN do not have anti-phospholipase 2…Abstract Number: 0631 • ACR Convergence 2024
Impact of Baseline Proteinuria Level on Long-term Outcomes in Lupus Nephritis
Background/Purpose: Proteinuria is a marker of lupus nephritis (LN) activity, damage, and response to therapy. There is still sparse evidence on the renal outcomes associated…Abstract Number: 0650 • ACR Convergence 2024
Tubulointerstitial Inflammation Predicts Tubular Atrophy, Fibrosis, and Renal Function Loss in Lupus Nephritis
Background/Purpose: Current classification criteria of lupus nephritis (LN) emphasize glomerular pathology, however tubular atrophy and interstitial fibrosis (TAIF) are better predictors of poor…Abstract Number: 1536 • ACR Convergence 2024
Prescription Rates of Angiotensin-Converting Enzyme Inhibitors and Angiotensin Receptor Blockers in Lupus Nephritis: A Comparative Study Across Specialties
Background/Purpose: Lupus nephritis is a well-known and severe complication in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) that can lead to significant morbidity and mortality. Angiotensin-converting…Abstract Number: 1556 • ACR Convergence 2024
Efficacy and Safety of Anifrolumab Across Organ Domains of Systemic Lupus Erythematosus. A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis
Background/Purpose: Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is a chronic autoimmune disease affecting multiple organ systems. Anifrolumab is a monoclonal antibody that antagonizes type I interferon receptors,…Abstract Number: 1642 • ACR Convergence 2024
A Urinary Biomarker Panel to Predict the Probability of Histologically Active Lupus Nephritis
Background/Purpose: Achieving an NIH Activity Index of < 2 upon treatment is associated with less LN flare and thus better long-term kidney survival. Here, we…Abstract Number: 1685 • ACR Convergence 2024
The Renal Activity Index for Lupus (RAIL) Identifies Active Renal Disease in SLE Patients and Its Longitudinal Score Associates with Achievement of Renal Responses in Lupus Nephritis
Background/Purpose: Lupus Nephritis (LN) confers a poor prognosis, and there is a lack of effective non-invasive tests to assess disease activity and treatment response. We…Abstract Number: 1787 • ACR Convergence 2024
Linking Transcriptomic Profiles of Kidney and Blood Samples Provides Insight into Identification of Lupus Nephritis
Background/Purpose: Current clinical methods to diagnose and evaluate the severity of lupus nephritis (LN) rely on identification of kidney dysfunction followed by invasive kidney biopsies.…Abstract Number: 1798 • ACR Convergence 2024
CXCL6 Synthesized by Proximal Tubule Cells May Promote Fibrosis in Lupus Nephritis
Background/Purpose: Detection of urinary CXCL6, a member of the IL-8 chemokine family, has been linked to CKD and is a proposed marker of chronic damage…Abstract Number: 1808 • ACR Convergence 2024
Not Only Type-I Interferon Regulated Genes Are Differentially Expressed in Circulating Monocytes from Active Lupus Nephritis Patients
Background/Purpose: Monocytes play an important role in organ damage, such as in Lupus Nephritis (LN). Although monocytes are typically considered inflammatory cells, evidence shows they…
