Article Synopsis
  • The study evaluated the effectiveness of the systemic lupus erythematosus risk probability index (SLERPI) in determining whether patients with idiopathic granulomatous mastitis (IGM) might have systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE).
  • A total of 62 IGM patients and 55 healthy controls were analyzed, focusing on demographic, clinical, and laboratory data, including various autoantibodies.
  • Results showed that 19.4% of IGM patients tested positive for SLERPI, indicating a notable association with arthritis and certain autoantibodies, suggesting SLERPI can help identify potential SLE cases within the IGM population.
