A new stochastic differential equation modelling incidence and prevalence with an application to systemic lupus erythematosus in England and Wales, 1995 [PDF]
arXiv, 2012 This article reformulates a common illness-death model in terms of a new system of stochastical differential equations (SDEs). The SDEs are used to estimate epidemiological characteristics and burden of systemic lupus erythematosus in England and Wales in 1995.

MIRACLE: Multi-task Learning based Interpretable Regulation of Autoimmune Diseases through Common Latent Epigenetics [PDF]
arXiv, 2023 DNA methylation is a crucial regulator of gene transcription and has been linked to various diseases, including autoimmune diseases and cancers. However, diagnostics based on DNA methylation face challenges due to large feature sets and small sample sizes, resulting in overfitting and suboptimal performance. To address these issues, we propose MIRACLE,

Systemic lupus erythematosus in African-American women: Cognitive physiological modules, autoimmune disease, and structured psychosocial stress [PDF]
arXiv, 2003 Examining elevated rates of systemic lupus erythematosus in African-American women from perspectives of immune cognition suggests the disease constitutes an internalized physiological image of external structured psychosocial stress, a 'pathogenic social hierarchy' involving the synergism of racism and gender discrimination in the context of policy ...

Dalhousie Medical Journal, 2013 Lupus erythematosus (LE) is a heterogeneous group of chronic autoimmune inflammatory diseases, ranging from solely cutaneous symptoms to systemic disease with extensive visceral involvement. 1 Lupus was first named in the Middle Ages, but evidence suggests that Hippocrates described it long before that time.

Low expression of estrogen receptor β in T lymphocytes and high serum levels of anti-estrogen receptor α antibodies impact disease activity in female patients with systemic lupus erythematosus [PDF]
, 2016 BACKGROUND: Current evidence indicates that estrogens, in particular 17β-estradiol (E2), play a crucial role in the gender bias of autoimmune diseases although the underlying molecular mechanisms have not yet been fully elucidated.
