This case report documents a 57-year-old man with nephrotic syndrome linked to recurrent chronic graft-versus-host disease and lupus-like symptoms, with improvement after cyclosporin and steroids; however, he died later from leukemia relapse.

In this case study, a 25-year-old presented with symptoms of lupus but tested negative for antinuclear antibodies, complicating diagnosis. The researchers emphasize that comprehensive diagnostic approaches, beyond ANA testing, are vital for effectively identifying and treating lupus nephritis to avoid serious outcomes.

In this case report, a 31-year-old woman with severe multisystem lupus vasculitis initially presented with generalized pain and rapidly worsening neuropathy, ultimately improving with cyclophosphamide and prednisolone treatment. The authors highlight diagnostic challenges, particularly in interpreting autoantibody results after IVIG therapy.

In this report, a 23-year-old woman developed nephrotic syndrome and was diagnosed with lupus nephritis after receiving the first dose of the AstraZeneca COVID-19 vaccine, but causation is not established.

This study found that male patients with systemic lupus erythematosus had a higher prevalence of certain complications like thromboses and nephropathy than female patients, suggesting gender influences the disease's clinical expression.
