Clinical and Genetic Factors Associated with Thrombosis or Pregnancy Morbidity of Antiphospholipid Antibody-Positive Systemic Lupus Erythematosus Patients
Background/Purpose: Antiphospholipid syndrome (APS) is characterized by thromboembolic and obstetric morbidity associated with antiphospholipid antibodies (aPL) in systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). This study aims to…Abstract Number: 2893 • 2018 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
Clinical Outcomes and Response to Anti-Thrombotic Treatment Among Patients with Concomitant Lupus Nephritis and Thrombotic Microangiopathy: A Multicenter Cohort Study

Thrombotic Events in Pediatric Systemic Lupus Erythematosus: A Preliminary Analysis of a Large, Single-Center Cohort
Background/Purpose: While pediatric systemic lupus erythematosus (pSLE) represents only 20% of all SLE cases, pSLE patients often have more aggressive disease with multi-organ involvement. These…Abstract Number: 664 • 2017 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
Low Vitamin D Is Associated with Thrombosis in Systemic Lupus Erythematosus
Background/Purpose: Low vitamin D is common in systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). It is also found in antiphospholipid syndrome. Vitamin D has effects on tissue factor,…Abstract Number: 2564 • 2017 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
Inhibition of Neutrophil Elastase Protects Against Glomerulonephritis and Thrombosis in a Mouse Model of Lupus
Background/Purpose: Neutrophils are potential instigators of autoimmunity and effectors of organ damage in lupus. However, there is presently no consensus as to whether inhibition of…Abstract Number: 2066 • 2016 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
Anti-Ds-DNA Antibodies Regulate Atherothrombosis in Systemic Lupus Erythematosus through the Induction of Netosis, the Prothrombotic and Proinflammatory Activities of Monocytes and the Endothelial Activation
Background/Purpose: The role of anti-dsDNA in the pathogenesis of the systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) has been clearly established. However, the influence of these autoantibodies in…Abstract Number: 2992 • 2016 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
In Systemic Lupus Erythematosus with Antiphospholipid Antibodies, Hypocomplementemia Associates with Thrombosis
Background/Purpose: Hypocomplementemia is a common phenomenon in systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) and antiphospholipid antibody syndrome (APS). Robust mechanistic data implicate complement activation in antiphospholipid antibody…Abstract Number: 963 • 2016 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
Treatment of Homocysteine Improves Urine Protein/Cr Ratio in SLE

Coagulation Pathway Function in Ischemia/Reperfusion Tissue Injury in Autoimmune Prone Mice
Results: Tissue Factor Pathway Inhibitor (TFPI) and Anti-thrombin III (ATIII) resulted in reduction of tissue injury, as determined by histopathology scoring. However, TFPI was significantly…Abstract Number: 1832 • 2015 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
Recurrence-Rate of Thrombotic Events in SLE Patients Negative for Antiphospholipid Antibodies
Background/Purpose: Thrombotic events (TE) are common in patients with SLE. Antiphospholipid antibodies (aPL) are a risk factor for incident and recurrent TE; therefore these patients…Abstract Number: 2930 • 2015 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
Outcome of Patients with Systemic Lupus Erythematous (SLE) after Thrombotic Events
Background/Purpose: To assess the impact of thrombotic events (TE) on 1) mortality, 2) SLE-related damage accrual; and 3) health-related quality of life (HRQoL) in patients…Abstract Number: 2940 • 2015 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
Risk Factors for Late-Onset Thrombosis in Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE)
Background/Purpose: Thrombotic events (TE) cause great morbidity and mortality in SLE patients. Studies of TE in SLE focus on early-onset TE. While the incidence of…Abstract Number: 2866 • 2014 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
