Subclinical Gastrointestinal Involvement in Juvenile Systemic Lupus Erythematosus
Evaluation of Subclinical Gastrointestinal Involvement in Juvenile Systemic Lupus Erythematosus at Assiut University Children Hospital
This cross-sectional case-control study aims to evaluate fecal calprotectin levels and intestinal ultrasound findings for the detection of subclinical gastrointestinal involvement in children with juvenile systemic lupus erythematosus compared with healthy controls.

Detaljeret beskrivelse
Juvenile systemic lupus erythematosus is a chronic multisystem autoimmune disease. Gastrointestinal involvement may be under-recognized and can be subclinical.
This observational study will measure fecal calprotectin and perform intestinal ultrasound in children with JSLE and age- and sex-matched healthy controls to assess subclinical gastrointestinal involvement.
