Long-term impact of pregnancy on renal function among Egyptian women with lupus nephritis: A case control study.

Few studies tackled the long-term effect of pregnancy on lupus nephritis (LNs); thus, the study aimed to explore the long-term impact of pregnancy on renal outcomes in Egyptian patients with LN. Group I patients included females who had their first pregnancy after LN onset with ≥5 years elapsing after delivery; group II patients included females who had never got pregnant for ≥7 years after LN onset. Data were retrospectively collected at baseline (T) and the last visit (T).

Pregnancy outcomes among Egyptian women with systemic lupus erythematosus: A prospective cohort study.

Pregnant patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) represent a high-risk group. The aim of this study is to describe the pregnancy outcomes among SLE patients who were followed prospectively at a conjoint high-risk pregnancy/rheumatology clinic from 2007 to 2021 and to identify predictors of adverse maternal and fetal outcomes. This study included 201 singleton pregnancies of 123 women with SLE.

Autoimmune Regulator Gene Polymorphisms in Egyptian Systemic Lupus Erythematosus Patients: Preliminary Results.

Background: Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is a systemic autoimmune disease. The autoimmune regulator () is a master regulator of self-tolerance development. mutations lead to the development of autoimmune polyglandular syndrome type 1 while polymorphisms have been linked to organ-specific autoimmunity.

Sexual dysfunction in Egyptian females with systemic lupus erythematosus: a cross sectional study.

Objectives: Sexual dysfunction in systemic lupus erythematous (SLE) patients is an important issue to be tackled. We aimed to study the prevalence of sexual dysfunction in SLE women and detect its association with depression, functional disability and quality of life.

Methods: This study included 94 SLE females.
