Thrombosis and Systemic Lupus Erythematosus: The Hopkins Lupus Cohort Perspective
Abstract
Vascular damage in systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) occurs through vasculitis, premature atherosclerosis, and hypercoagulability (predominantly due to the antiphospholipid antibody syndrome). In the Hopkins Lupus Cohort, a prospective cohort study, the incidence of thrombosis is 2 per 100 person-years of follow-up. Markers of immune-complex mediated injury (high anti-dsDNA and low C3), atherosclerosis (hypertension, hyperlipidemia, homocysteine) and antiphospholipid antibodies (lupus anticoagulant or anticardiolipin) are independent predictors of thrombosis. Hydroxychloroquine use is protective against future thrombosis.

Prior retrospective and prospective studies have shown that hydroxychloroquine lowers the risk of arterial and venous thrombosis in systemic lupus erythematosus.
“Multiple retrospective and a few prospective studies (3–13) have found that hydroxychloroquine (HCQ) reduces the risk of arterial and venous thrombosis.”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
