Prior studies have shown that IFN is increased in non-lesional skin of SLE pts.
In this study, they found a ⬆️ expression of IFN stimulated genes (ISGs) in pts w/ a history of CLE.
No correlation w/ CLASI act & IFN scores but only few pts.

Prof Petri reports the ff predictors of fracture in SLE:
-older age

⚠️ Prednisone (but not recent IM triamcinolone or IV methylpred) is a MAJOR risk factor.
