Expression and Functions of the Transcription Factors Ikaros and Aiolos in Sjogren’s Syndrome and Systemic Lupus Erythematosus
Background/Purpose: Polymorphisms of the transcription factors Ikaros (IKZF1) and Aiolos (IKZF3), which are essential for the maturation, differentiation and survival of B cells, have been…Abstract Number: 715 • 2018 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
Septic Shock Among Patients with Systemic Lupus Erythematosus: Short and Long-Term Outcome and Cost. Analysis of the French Nationwide Database

Dysfunction of the DNASE1L3 Pathway and Antigen Accumulation in Lupus Nephritis
Background/Purpose: DNASE1L3 is a unique secreted DNase that is capable of degrading DNA complexed with proteins and/or encapsulated in membranes, such as chromatin within microparticles…Abstract Number: 1942 • 2018 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
Anti-NMDA Receptor Antibodies in Systemic Lupus Erythematosus Associate with Decreased White Matter Integrity and Impaired Spatial Memory
Background/Purpose: Cognitive impairment is common in SLE and impacts quality of life; however, causality is limited by incomplete understanding of neurotoxic mechanisms. Diffusion tensor imaging…Abstract Number: 2150 • 2018 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
Association of Poverty Income Ratio with Physical Functioning in a Cohort of Patients with Systemic Lupus Erythematosus
Background/Purpose: Lower socioeconomic status (SES) has been shown to be associated with poor physical functioning in systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) patients; however, previous studies have…Abstract Number: 2894 • 2018 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
Psychosis in Systemic Lupus Erythematosus: Results from an International, Inception Cohort Study
Background/Purpose: Psychosis, one of the rarer neuropsychiatric (NP) events in lupus patients, features in both the ACR and Systemic Lupus International Collaborating Clinics (SLICC) classification…Abstract Number: 27 • 2018 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
Top-Down Proteomics Coupled with Antibody Sequencing from Single B Cells Reveals a Monoclonal Anti-Sm Clone Present in the Serum of an SLE Patient over Three Years
Background/Purpose: Proteomics is becoming an increasingly powerful tool to study autoantibodies. Current bottom-up approaches are yielding a plethora of knowledge about public clonotypes and clonal…Abstract Number: 728 • 2018 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
A Higher Activity Index at Initial Renal Biopsy Is Associated with Rapid Progression to Renal Failure in Patients with Refractory Lupus Nephritis
Background/Purpose: Lupus nephritis (LN) is a major cause of morbidity and mortality affecting ~50% of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) patients. Up to 30% of patients…Abstract Number: 1091 • 2018 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
Serine Arginine-Rich Splicing Factor 1 (SRSF1) Is Essential for T Lymphocyte Homeostasis and Decreased Levels of SRSF1 Correlate with Lymphopenia in SLE Patients
Background/Purpose: Lymphopenia is one of the most common clinical features in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), and associates with severe disease and comorbidities such…Abstract Number: 1943 • 2018 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
Apolipoprotein L1 Risk Variants Associate with Poor Renal Outcomes, Damage Accrual, and Death: A Prospective Ghanaian SLE Cohort
Background/Purpose: Two Apolipoprotein L1 (APOL1) risk variants (RV), G1 and G2, are enriched in ancestrally African populations due to a conferred superior resistance to Trypanosoma…Abstract Number: 2170 • 2018 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
Relationship between Short- and Long-Term Periods of Self-Reported Physical Activity Patterns in Individuals with SLE
Background/Purpose: Physical inactivity is prevalent in Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE). Assessment of physical activity (PA) is vital to manage cardiovascular risk factors in SLE. The…
