Article Synopsis
- The study aimed to investigate how smoking exposure is linked to organ damage in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) using a specific damage score (SLICC-SDI) in an Argentinian cohort.
- Out of 623 SLE patients analyzed, 84% were non-smokers, while 16% were current smokers, with 17% showing severe organ damage (SLICC-SDI ≥3).
- The findings indicated that current smoking, older age, longer disease duration, and the use of cyclophosphamide are significantly associated with severe organ damage in SLE patients.
Objective: To evaluate the association between patients' characteristics and disease activity in an Argentine lupus registry.
Methods: Cross-sectional study. Disease activity was stratified into: Remission off-treatment: SLEDAI = 0, without prednisone and immunosuppressive drugs.
Objective: The objective is to describe the main characteristics of patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) in Argentina and to examine the influence of ethnicity on the expression of the disease.
Patients And Methods: RELESSAR is a multicentre register carried out by 106 researchers from 67 rheumatologic Argentine centres. It is a cross-sectional study of SLE (1982/1997 ACR) patients.

Introduction: Pulmonary haemorrhage (PH) in systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is a rare but potentially fatal complication due to its high mortality. Early treatment benefits the outcome. Reports on predictive factors of PH in SLE patients are scarce.
