Little is known about how patients with antiphospholipid syndrome (APS) or antiphospholipid antibodies (aPL) access and trust health information. This research aimed to: describe the sources of information most frequently accessed/trusted by patients with APS/aPL; identify if individuals with APS/aPL perceived their health had been negatively impacted by various sources and document obstacles to accessing health information. Patients meeting Revised Sapporo Criteria for APS or with ≥1 positive aPL on ≥2 occasions were recruited to an online survey regarding their health information use at diagnosis and within 6 months preceding survey completion.

Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is an inflammatory autoimmune disease with an important course due to systemic compromise. SLE is frequently associated with antiphospholipid syndrome, and pulmonary thromboembolism (PE) is particularly common. It is extremely rare for PE to be the initial clinical presentation and even more uncommon for it to coincide with cardiac tamponade, representing a challenge in diagnosis and management.

Anti-phosphatidylserine/prothrombin antibodies (aPS/PT) are classified as non-criteria antiphospholipid antibodies (aPL), and are strongly associated with thrombosis and pregnancy complications linked to antiphospholipid syndrome (APS). This study aimed to investigate whether aPS/PT positivity is associated with adverse outcomes in vitro fertilization (IVF). The study included infertile women who tested positive aPS/PT and underwent IVF cycles, as well as infertile controls with pure tubal etiology.

Background: Current guidelines recommend application of the 99th percentile to determine the cut-off value on at least 120 healthy donors regardless of sex for lupus anticoagulant (LA) ratio of each step. However, a statistically significant difference between the sexes has been found for LA ratio recently.
Objectives: To clarify whether this sex difference in dilute Russell's viper venom time (DRVVT) exists in various detection systems and the necessity of setting sex-specific cut-off values.

Recognizing and diagnosing lymphoma in patients with fever of unknown origin (FUO) can be challenging, and misdiagnosis is not uncommon. To improve understanding of the clinical characteristics of lymphoma patients presenting with FUO who were misdiagnosed with autoimmune diseases. A retrospective, observational study of 140 consecutive patients with FUO and lymphoma presenting to a tertiary center between January 2017 and December 2023.
