Abstract

The diverse clinical symptoms associated with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) probably reflect its complex genetic underpinnings. Evidence from a new study indicates that analysis of common risk alleles can predict susceptibility to several end-organ manifestations of SLE, which could influence patient screening and support personalized approaches to treatment.
