Bone mineral density in patients with juvenile systemic lupus erythematosus
Methods Cross-sectional study, in which were evaluated 53 patients from the Rheumatology ambulatory in HUCFF/ UFRJ, diagnosed with JSLE in their childhood or teenage years, according to ACR (American College of Rheumatology) criteria. Subjects were submitted to a single blood and urine collection for dosing of the following variables: alkaline phosphatase, serum phosphorus and calcium, urea, cr...
متن کاملPrevalence of and risk factors for low bone mineral density and vertebral fractures in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus.
OBJECTIVE To examine the prevalence of and risk factors for low bone mineral density (BMD) and vertebral fractures in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). METHODS We studied 107 SLE patients. Demographic and clinical data were collected, and radiographs of the thoracic and lumbar spine and BMD measurements by dual x-ray absorptiometry were performed. Vertebral deformities were sc...
متن کاملPrevalence and Possible Risk Factors of Low Bone Mineral Density in Untreated Female Patients with Systemic Lupus Erythematosus
Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is an autoimmune disease characterized by chronic inflammation. Different studies have shown decreased bone mineral density (BMD) in patients with SLE. The objective of this study was to investigate the prevalence and possible risk factors of low BMD in untreated female patients with SLE in Chinese population. A total of 119 untreated female patients with SLE ...
متن کاملBone mineral density and biochemical parameters of bone metabolism in female patients with systemic lupus erythematosus.
OBJECTIVE To evaluate bone mineral density and biochemical parameters of bone metabolism in ambulatory premenopausal female patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). METHODS 30 women who fulfilled the ARA criteria for the classification of SLE were studied. Lumbar and femoral bone mineral density was determined by dual energy x ray absorptiometry. Various laboratory parameters includi...
متن کاملBone mineral density in juvenile systemic lupus erythematosus.
We evaluated spine bone mineral density (BMD) in Brazilian children with juvenile systemic lupus erythematosus (JSLE) in order to detect potential predictors of reduction in bone mass. A cross-sectional study of BMD at the lumbar spine level (L2-L4) was conducted on 16 female JSLE patients aged 6-17 years. Thirty-two age-matched healthy girls were used as control. BMD at the lumbar spine was me...
