Background/Purpose: Patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) have a 1.85-fold higher risk of all-cause mortality and a 2.74 fold higher risk of infection-related mortality compared…Abstract Number: 0638 • ACR Convergence 2023
Application of the 2022 European Society of Cardiology (ESC) Risk Assessment Model in Australian and Singaporean Systemic Sclerosis Patients with Newly Diagnosed Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension (PAH)
Background/Purpose: Pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) patients can be stratified as low, intermediate, or high risk of 1-year mortality based on clinical, biochemical and haemodynamic prognostic…Abstract Number: 2323 • ACR Convergence 2023
An Electronic Health Record-Based Algorithm for Predicting Systemic Lupus Erythematosus Flares: Integrating Clinical Factors and Social Determinants of Health
Background/Purpose: Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) has a relapsing-remitting course, with patients experiencing disease activity flares over time. Flares and prolonged disease activity are associated with…Abstract Number: 0654 • ACR Convergence 2023
Comparison of Cardiovascular Risk in Patients with Systemic Sclerosis and the General Population
Background/Purpose: Patients with systemic sclerosis (SSc) may be burdened by increased cardiovascular (CV) risk due to accelerated atherosclerosis (ATS) due to systemic inflammation, and vascular…Abstract Number: 2362 • ACR Convergence 2023
Identification of Protein Biomarkers Associated with the Severity and Risk of Progression of Interstitial Lung Disease in VEDOSS and Established Systemic Sclerosis Patients
Background/Purpose: Pulmonary Fibrosis (PF) is one of the primary causes of systemic sclerosis (SSc)-related death. Hence, monitoring and predicting the course of PF in SSc…Abstract Number: 0015 • ACR Convergence 2023
Genetic Predisposition to a Positive Antinuclear Antibody Test Is Not Associated with Increased Risk of Disease
Background/Purpose: Antinuclear antibodies (ANA) are biomarkers that are frequently used in the diagnosis of common autoimmune (AI) disorders, but are also present in ~12-20% of…Abstract Number: 0740 • ACR Convergence 2023
Renal Arteriosclerosis in Index Lupus Nephritis Biopsies Predicts Future Cardiovascular Disease
Background/Purpose: Patients < 40 years old with lupus nephritis (LN) face 42-fold higher risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD) compared to peers. Traditional CVD risk calculators…Abstract Number: 2408 • ACR Convergence 2023
The Use of the Southend GCA Probability Score (GCAPS) in Assessing the Risk of Giant Cell Arteritis in Australian Ophthalmological and General Medical Hospital Cohorts
Background/Purpose: The rate of positive temporal artery biopsies (TAB) in patients with suspected giant cell arteritis (GCA) varies widely, indicating the need for better pre-test…Abstract Number: 0131 • ACR Convergence 2023
Identifying Antinuclear Antibody Positive Individuals at Risk for Systemic Autoimmune Disease: Development and Validation of a Real-Time Risk Model
Background/Purpose: Up to 20% of the general population has a positive ANA without having autoimmune disease. Currently, no tools exist to help clinicians interpret the…Abstract Number: 0744 • ACR Convergence 2023
Personalizing Cardiovascular Risk Prediction for Patients with Systemic Lupus Erythematosus
