assess glycemic control in patients with diabetes. Previous genome-wide association studies (…

Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is an autoimmune disease with marked gender and
ethnic disparities. We report a large transancestral association study of SLE using Immunochip …

In spite of the well-known clustering of multiple autoimmune disorders in families, analyses
of specific shared genes and polymorphisms between systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) …

Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is a chronic heterogeneous autoimmune disorder
characterized by the loss of tolerance to self-antigens and dysregulated interferon responses. …

Human genetic diversity is the result of population genetic forces. This genetic variation
influences disease risk and contributes to health disparities. Autoimmune diseases (ADs) are a …

Objective To test for associations between non–major histocompatibility complex susceptibility
loci previously reported in autoimmune diseases and juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA). …

Lupus nephritis is a manifestation of SLE resulting from glomerular immune complex deposition
and inflammation. Lupus nephritis demonstrates familial aggregation and accounts for …
