1. It’s the right time that primary care
physician should be aware of
The thousand face of Lupus
2. Prevalence of SLE in the population:
20 to 150 cases per 100,000
In women, prevalence rates vary from:
164 (Caucasian) per 100,000
to 406 (African American) per 100,000
Epidemiology
3. Due to improved detection of mild disease, the
incidence nearly tripled in the last 40 years of the
20th century.
Estimated incidence rates are 1 to 25 per
100,000 in North America, South America,
Europe and Asia.

the most common
presenting
manifestation of SLE
Arthritis
12. Involvement of the kidneys
during the course of the
disease occurs in up to 60%
of cases,
resulting in worsening
morbidity and mortality.

21. Autoantibodies in SLE
• ANA
• Seen in 95% of SLE
• Not specific for SLE
• Seen in many
inflammatory,
infectious, and
neoplastic diseases
• Seen in 5% to 15% of
normal persons
22. Does NOT mean you have lupus.
Good screening test- practically all patients
with lupus. BUT not a specific test.
“Positive ANA”
23. Autoantibodies in SLE
• Anti-ds DNA
• Seen in 60% of patients with SLE
• Highly specific for SLE
• Low titer rarely seen in other inflammatory
conditions
• Strongest clinical association is with nephritis
• Anti-Sm (Smith)
• Seen in 10% to 30% of SLE patients
• Highly specific for SLE

27. When to Consider a Diagnosis of SLE
• Usually seen in women of childbearing age with:
• Constitutional symptoms of fever, weight loss,
malaise, and severe fatigue
• Skin rash and/or stomatitis
• Arthritis
• Renal disease
• Cytopenias
• Although 90% of patients are female, SLE can be
seen at any age in either sex
28. No cure
Treatment goal: relieve symptoms and protect organs
by decreasing inflammation and/or the level of
autoimmune activity in the body.
Treatment options:
Rest/Sleep
Corticosteriods
Hydroxychloroquine/Chloroquin (anti-malarial)
Cytotoxic drugs (immunosuppressive medications)
Biologic agents
Treatment
30. MMF superior to Aza for maintenance?
A total of 227 patients across sites in the US, Western
Europe, China, Argentina, and Mexico, who improved after
6 months of either high-dose CYC or MMF were randomly
assigned to maintenance treatment (116 to MMF and 111
to Aza)
Over 3 years of follow up, MMF was statistically better than
AZA in time to treatment failure (a composite including
death, end-stage renal disease, doubling of serum
creatinine, and renal flare), and in each element of the
composite score.
Severe adverse events occurred in significantly more
patients receiving AZA than receiving MMF.

31. Leading cause of kidney disease, strokes and
heart disease in childbearing age women.
35-44 y/o lupus patients are 50 times more
likely to have a heart attack.
2X increased risk for carotid plaque
(atherosclerosis). (<40y/o)
Disability.

32. Over the past 50y, 5y-
survival in lupus pts
improved from 50% in
1955 to 82-95% in
1990s.
However, lupus patients
have a 3-5X increased
mortality compared to
the general population.

Mortality
SLE pts in the 1950–1979 cohort. Pop=population; MN-W=Minnesota whites
33. There is currently no certain way to prevent SLE
But people who smoke may be more likely to
develop lupus.
Avoiding smoking and perhaps other tobacco
products may decrease your risk of developing
lupus.
UV light
Physical & Psychological stressor
Healthy life style
Prevention
CYC was shown in initial NIH trials has shown improvement in renal survival and decrease rates of doubling or serum creat when added to MP. However, mortality remains same (infections).
