Systemic Lupus Erythematosis
Overview of systemic lupus erythematosus, "often referred to simply as lupus, ... a serious [autoimmune] disease affecting the joints, kidneys, and skin." Lupus "affects 10 times as many women as men," and is more common "in certain ethnic groups, particularly in blacks and Asians." Topics include causes, diagnosis, treatment, the broader health impact of lupus, living with lupus, and the role of a rheumatologist in the treatment of lupus. From the American College of Rheumatology.
