Can SARS-CoV-2 trigger new onset of autoimmune disease in adults? A case-based review.

Introduction: Although it has been proposed that SARS-CoV-2 can cause autoimmunity by inducing a transient immunodeficiency of both innate and acquired immunity components in which the immune system fails to identify autoantigens adequately, the exact mechanism that causes this disease remains unknown. We aim to systematically review of existing case reports for evidence of new autoimmune diseases in adults caused by SARS-CoV-2 infection.

Methods: PRISMA-P 2020 method was used to search for literature in "PubMed" databases using the string "COVID-19 AND autoimmune disease AND complication".

A Study from a Highly Populated Country : Risk Factors Associated with Lower Back Pain in Middle-Aged Adults.

Several factors such as individual, occupational, and psychosocial factors increase the risk of LBP. However, only a few studies investigated those factors, especially in middle adulthood in Indonesia.
