Systemic lupus erythematosus in a multiethnic U.S. cohort (LUMINA) XXVII: factors predictive of a decline to low levels of disease activity.

abstract：:Intestinal pseudo-obstruction (IpsO) occurs in a small subgroup of patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), and has been under-recognized. The etiology and mechanisms are unclear. Herein, we report two cases. In case 1, IpsO occurred as the complication in a previously diagnosed SLE patient. In case 2, IpsO w...
