This study by Munoz-Grajales et al show that the analyte S100A8/A9 (highest AUC) was able to differentiate between SLE pts with cognitive impairment and those without.

Interesting findings.
More data needed to confirm and explain why it is so.

Acute pregnancy-related CV event risk found to be highest in pts w/ SLE+ APS, followed by primary APS, and SLE w/ LN. Most importantly, 25-30% of events happen post-partum! Monitor these pts carefully! #ACR23 Plenary 0722 #ACRbest https://t.co/yD5VFJ2SXh @rheumnow https://t.co/PDvzbs19fR

@drbags71 @RheumNow Too often we don't leave women of childbearing age with a plan, if they do get pregnant. And we need to help them get ready, for whatever they want, so we can avoid bad outcomes - and all the consequences of that.
