Straight the point.  You condensed a 1 hour long lecture into a little over 5 minutes...and it's the same material we learned in class.  Thank you!!

Great Video, just a small correction, anti-sm stands for smith (small ribonucleic acids) and not smooth muscle, otherwise all correcto.

Great video. I would like to point out that lupus is more common in women than in men and in African-Americans then and other ethnic groups. According to Dr. Daniel Wallace, one third of all lupus patients who are in active flare will not have laboratory findings. I am curious if there's any research on the percentage of people with a Lupus diagnosis who also have chronic intractable pain. I also would like to point out that if a person has one autoimmune disease they are likely to be diagnosed with others.

[opsonization]

first! also they may present with ocular findings like blindness or cotton wool spots

Hi, Im from the Philippines and currently working as Clinical Abstractor. I dont see any videos regarding SLEDAI scoring but I have read some about it. I have seen 6/10 SLEDAI score but I'm wondering if the "10" in 6/10 would be the number of items or the measure of disease activity? And if I could ask for a reference.

More power and thank you❤️❤️❤️🇵🇭🇵🇭🇵🇭
