New research at ACR Convergence 2023, the American College of Rheumatology's (ACR) annual meeting, describes a link between positive antiphospholipid antibodies and an increased risk of future cardiovascular disease in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE).
A study of multiple cohorts of patients with systemic lupus erythematosus showed significantly lower prevalence of antiphospholipid antibodies (aPLs) among Black patients.
It is vital for health care teams to recognize the signs and symptoms of antiphospholipid syndrome and to identify the severity of a patient’s diagnosis based on their aPL profile.
Comprehensive study reveals that whole ginger extracts have a significant impact on inhibiting neutrophil hyperactivity, a key factor in autoimmune diseases like APS and lupus. Consuming ginger for just a week showed promising results in both animal models and human trials, positioning it as a natural and affordable treatment option for a range of autoimmune disorders.
New research has revealed a potentially important role ginger supplements can play in controlling inflammation for people living with autoimmune diseases.
