Parent topics
- Rheumatology [r]: Medical specialty that deals with the study, diagnosis, and treatment of connective tissue diseases; a subspecialty of internal medicine [e]
- Immunology [r]: The study of all aspects of the immune system in all animals. [e]
- Connective tissue disease [r]: A heterogeneous group of disorders, some hereditary, others acquired, characterized by abnormal structure or function of one or more of the elements of connective tissue, i.e., collagen, elastin, or the mucopolysaccharides, and thus within the specialty of rheumatology; many involve autoimmunity [e]
Subtopics
Variants and comorbidities
- Central nervous system lupis [r]: Add brief definition or description
- Discoid lupus [r]: Add brief definition or description
- Drug-induced lupus [r]: Add brief definition or description
- Fibromyalgia [r]: Inflammation of the fibrous or connective tissue of the body, characterized by acute and debilitating widespread musculoskeletal pain. [e]
- Lupus nephritis [r]: Add brief definition or description
- Myositis [r]: Add brief definition or description
- Osteonecrosis [r]: Add brief definition or description
Diagnosis
- Human leukocyte antigen [r]: Antigens determined by leukocyte loci found on chromosome 6, the major histocompatibility complex (MHC) in humans. They are polypeptides or glycoproteins found on most nucleated cells and platelets, determine tissue types for transplantation, and are associated with certain diseases. [e]
- Recursive partitioning [r]: A statistical method for multivariable analysis. [e]
- Anti-nuclear antibodies [r]: A class of antibodies, members of which are elevated in different autoimmune diseases; the anti-nuclear antibody test is a measurement of the class, complemented by more specific antibody assays [e]
Treatment
- Antimalarial [r]: Rather than all drugs active against malaria, usually a reference to several synthetic analogues of quinine, with applications against malaria and other parasites, but also as disease modifying anti-rheumatic drugs (DMARD) used as immunomodulators in rheumatology [e]
- Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory agent [r]: Medication other than corticosteroids having analgesic, antipyretic and anti-inflammatory activity due to their ability to inhibit the synthesis of prostaglandins. [e]
- Corticosteroid [r]: Steroid hormones mainly produced by the adrenal cortex. [e]
- Danazol [r]: Add brief definition or description
- Dapsone [r]: Add brief definition or description
- Immunoglobulin [r]: Add brief definition or description
- Immunosuppressant [r]: Add brief definition or description
- Hydroxymethylglutaryl-coenzyme A reductase inhibitor [r]: Add brief definition or description
- Thalidomide [r]: Add brief definition or description
- Tumor necrosis factor-alpha [r]: Add brief definition or description
- Mixed connective tissue disease [r]: Add brief definition or description
- Fibromyalgia [r]: Inflammation of the fibrous or connective tissue of the body, characterized by acute and debilitating widespread musculoskeletal pain. [e]
- HIV test [r]: Add brief definition or description
- Hypersensitivity [r]: Add brief definition or description
- Rheumatoid arthritis [r]: Add brief definition or description
