Elucidation of the potential disease-promoting influence of IgM apoptotic cell-reactive antibodies in lupus.

abstract：:Pulmonary hypertension (PH) can occur at any time during the course of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), and can be independent of lupus disease activity in other systems. The pathogenesis of PH in SLE can be multifactorial, but pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) is the commonest cause of PH in SLE. The internati...
