This study looks at whether children with juvenile lupus have early, hidden tummy or bowel problems that don't cause clear symptoms yet. It involves providing a stool sample for analysis, and possibly other tests, to find these issues early and better understand how lupus affects the gut.
This research study aims to better understand systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), an autoimmune disease where the body's immune system attacks its own tissues. Researchers will evaluate patients with lupus, study genetic factors, and perform optional imaging tests to learn how the disease affects blood vessels and the heart.
This study looks for certain immune markers (HLA antibodies) in stored blood samples from people with lupus. It may help doctors understand how the immune system behaves in lupus.
This study looks at how certain immune cells (natural killer T cells) behave in people with systemic lupus, by measuring specific immune receptor markers in blood. It may help researchers better understand lupus and how it can connect with other conditions like antiphospholipid syndrome or Sjögren’s.
This study looks at how platelets (small blood cells that help with clotting) might play a role in autoimmune diseases like lupus. By understanding this, researchers hope to find new ways to treat these conditions.
This study is trying to better understand lupus (SLE) by looking at different types of the disease. It may help doctors find more personalized treatments in the future.
