Anti KU Antibodies and Its Relationship With Systemic Lupus Erythematosus
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
systemic lupus Erythematosus (SLE) is a multi system autoimmune disorder abroad spectrum of clinical presentations.
Diagnosis of SLE depending on Systemic Lupus International Collaborating Clinics (SLICC) Criteria.
SLICC Criteria requires either that a patient satisfy at least 4 of 17 Criteria including at least 1 of 11 clinical criteria and 1 of 6 immunological criteria or the patient has biopsy -proven nephritis compatible with SLE in the presence of antinuclear antibodies (ANA)or anti_double stranded DNA (dsDNA) antibodies.
Anti_KU antibodies included in (ANA), reported in many autoimmune disorders like SLE,Sjogren syndrome, idiopathic lung fibrosis and myositis.
So the aim of the work is to determine the relationship between Anti_KU antibodies and SLE manifestations.
