Results and prognosis of kidney transplantation in lupus nephritis: Experience of an Argentine center
CONCLUSION: Patients transplanted for LN did not differ from the control population in terms of graft and patient survival. Infections were the main cause of death, so prophylaxis and vaccination continue to be a fundamental pillar in the prevention of infections in immunocompromised patients.PMID:38569651 | DOI:10.1177/09612033241244508 (Source: Lupus)

Association of pulmonary hypertension with outcomes in patients with Systemic sclerosis and other connective tissue disorders: review and meta-analysis
CONCLUSIONS: Patients with SSc-PH are characterized by significantly lower survival function as compared to SSc patients without PH. Among the different entities of PH, SSc shows the worst survival, underlining prognostic significance of detection and evaluation of PH according to the currently established approach.PMID:38567564 | DOI:10.36141/svdld.v41i1.14570 (Source: Sarcoidosis Vasculitis and Diffuse Lung Diseases)

A Novel Human Interleukin ‐23A Overexpressing Mouse Model of Systemic Lupus Erythematosus
ConclusionWe have generated and characterized a novel genetic mouse model of SLE, providing proof-of-concept for the etiopathogenic role of human IL-23A. This new model has a normal life span and integrates several characteristics of the human disease's complexity and chronicity, making it an attractive preclinical tool for studying IL-23 –dependent pathogenic mechanisms and assessing the efficacy of anti–human IL-23A or modeled disease-related therapeutics.
