Before the end of the year, we are sending our last reminder! We would like to thank you for your participation and kindly ask, for one last time, to inform your members of our questionnaire.
The study is going very well so far, we have had almost 400 responses from 26 different countries. The greater the participation, the more information we will have that could possibly be representative of each country; thus, we would like to extend our study until December 15th. Our aim is to investigate the pregnancy experience that women with rheumatic diseases go through, in order to voice their concerns, reveal problems they’ve faced and identify areas of improvement of the health system, and we are close to finalising our efforts. Please share our questionnaire through email, Facebook, website-link or other way of your preference.
Attached please find the links to our questionnaires:
We deeply appreciate your support!
Kind regards,
Ilianna Armata 3rd yr medical student

🚨 Call for patients🚨

🔊 INSPIRE SURVEY from the University of Cambridge.

This survey aims to improve the understanding of neurological symptoms in SLE and other rheumatic conditions.

Lupus is a very heterogeneous disease, which means that it affects people of different ethnic backgrounds and gender in different ways.

That is why, to get accurate research results, as many different groups as possible must be represented in the sample.

The INSPIRE survey was launched last year to get the patient experience on the assessment/monitoring of neurological symptoms, but they received very few responses from people from ethnic minorities.

That is why the research team led by Dr Chris Wincup has launched a new survey.

The new INSPIRE survey can be completed by lupus patients or their carers from around the world.

🟣 Please share as much as possible 🟣 in order to get a sample that includes a good proportion of all ethnic groups.

Thank you!

Discoid lupus erythematosus (DLE) is the most common form of chronic cutaneous lupus erythematosus. It is characterised by persistent scaly plaques on the scalp, face, and ears, which can progress to scarring, atrophy, depigmentation, and permanent hair loss in affected hair-bearing areas (Source: DermNet).

This study, published by Prof Marca Mosca et al., describes 2 cases of severe and refractory DLE successfully treated with anifrolumab, a human monoclonal antibody.

Although anifrolumab has been recently approved for the treatment of SLE, data from randomized clinical trials have shown a significant difference in cutaneous response rate in patients treated with anifrolumab from those in the placebo group.

While the effectiveness of this treatment in real life and in different types of skin lesions has yet to be determined, it could represent a new valid opportunity for treating DLE.
