Factores asociados con actividad del lupus eritematoso sistémico en insuficiencia renal crónica terminal

lupus activity does not always “burn out” in patients who progress to ESRD. Younger patients at the onset of dialysis and lower levels of C3 at the start of dialysis may have higher risk of postdialysis lupus flare. SLE patients on dialysis should be carefully followed up by clinical and serological monitoring, particularly in potential renal transplant recipients.
