Coronary Artery Disease in Systemic Lupus Erythematosus: What Do the Facts Say?
2023
Overview
Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is an autoimmune disease that can affect any organ with a predisposition for women of reproductive age. It is related to a higher risk of cardiovascular events, increasing it up to 50 times in young people, and 30% of deaths are attributed to coronary artery disease. The risk of developing cardiovascular disease in SLE is related not only to traditional cardiovascular risks factors such as advanced age, hypertension, dyslipidemia, and diabetes but also to disease-specific factors, such as degree of activity, autoantibodies, organ damage, and treatment. Accelerated atherosclerosis is one of the main contributors to pathogenesis. Manifestations range from angina to acute myocardial infarction and sudden death. Markers have been studied for the detection of subclinical disease and stratification of these patients, as well as different treatment options to improve the cardiovascular prognosis of the disease.
