Back Ground: Depression is a natural disturbance of feeling that is characterized by feelings of sadness, loss of interest and easily tired. Steroids are drugs that can reduce swelling, pain and heat due to inflammation through reducing the immune response. Steroids are often used in cases of systemic Lupus Erythematosus in the long term. Therefore management of the disease must be done well because steroids can cause depression. Case Report:Women, 37 years old, depressed mood, disappointment in life, loss of enthusiasm, fatigue, decreased appetite and difficulty sleeping for 1 year. 4 years ago I took steroids for 2 years at a dose of 20mg / day, because rheumatoid arthritis was stopped by os, and for the past 1 year, steroid consumption was due to Systemic Lupus Erythematosus around 60 mg / day. . Before the os consumes steroids, the OS has never experienced depression.BP: 110/70 mmHg , HR 88x/menit, RR 20x/menit, Temp 37°C. Skor BDI 21.

Hydroxychloroquine (HCQ) and its related drug, chloroquine, have been under use for malaria for the past 75 years. Its use for malaria, rheumatoid arthritis and systemic lupus erythematosus are Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved. These drugs have immunomodulatory and antiviral actions. More and more indications for this drug are being explored. These drugs are still under study as possible treatments for coronavirus disease 2019 but at present FDA has revoked its emergency use authorization for these two drugs. However, in many other indications, HCQ is a valuable drug but monitoring for adverse effects is mandatory.

Conclusions: We reported that AIP can be used as an independent indicator for long-term CVD risk in RA and SLE patients. Results: The mean age of the RA and SLE patients was 47.97 ± 8.78 and 36.75 ± 9.09 years, respectively. The median (interquartile range) of AIP values in RA and SLE patients were 0.34 (-0.15, 1.02) and 0.33 (-0.53, 0.96), respectively, while FRS values of RA patients and SLE patients were 6.38 ± 5.58 and 4.86 ± 4.5, respectively (p >0.05). There was a moderate correlation between AIP and FRS in RA and SLE patients (r=0.42, p=0.002 and r=0.33, p=0.007, respectively). According to the multivariate regression analyses, we found that AIP value is an independent factor for FRS in RA (β: 4.13, 95% confidence interval; 1.71, 6.18; p=0.008) and in SLE patients (β: 6.19, 95% confidence interval; 2.58, 9.81; p<0.001). Methods: This is a cross-sectional study of 99 RA and 59 SLE women. Demographic, clinical, and biochemical data were obtained, and disease activities were calculated. For each patient, the long-term risk of CVD was calculated using the Framingham risk score (FRS); AIP was derived according to the logarithmic (triglycerides/high-density lipoproteins cholesterol). Objective: This study aimed to determine the predictive value of AIP with long term CVD risk among women with RA and SLE. Background: Women with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) are at high risk of cardiovascular diseases (CVD). The atherogenic index of plasma (AIP) is a new marker for the assessment of CVD.

Проведён обзор клинических исследований особенности течения ювенильной формы системной красной волчанки (СКВ) (до 18 лет), изучены наиболее эффективные и безопасные методы лечения за последние пять лет в базе данных: PubMed, Cochrane Library, Tripdatabase. Нa основании изученных материалов мы выявили, что чаще всего заболеваемость СКВ в детском возрасте приходится на препубертатный период -12,5 лет. Наиболее частой и прогностически тяжелой формой является волчаночный нефрит. В настоящее время в терапии СКВ применяются генно-инженерные биологические препараты (ГИБП), в частности Белибумаб, который является менее токсичным для детского организма и может привести к длительной ремиссии. Таким образом, ранняя диагностика и лечение СКВ может предупредить рецидивы и осложнения заболевания и улучшить прогноз у детей. This article provides clinical studies of the peculiar features of the systemic lupus erythematosus's course in children under the age of 18, observe the most effective and harmless methods of treating this disease over the past 5 years in the databases: PubMed, Cochrane Library, Tripdatabase. Based on the studied materials, we found that the average age of SLE incidence in childhood is the prepubertal period -12.6 years. The most common and prognostically severe form in children is lupus nephritis. In the treatment of SLE, GIBP has recently been used, particularly of Belimumab, which is less toxic to the child's body and the using of this drug can lead to long-term remission. Thus, based on the obtained data, we can say that it is the earliest diagnosis and treatment of SLE that can prevent the development of severe forms of the disease and improve the prognosis of the incidence of this disease.

Rheumatoid arthritis and systemic lupus erythematosus are two highly prevalent autoimmune diseases that generate disability and low quality of life. The innate immune system, a long-forgotten issue in autoimmune diseases, is becoming increasingly important and represents a new focus for the treatment of these entities. This review highlights the role that innate immune system plays in the pathophysiology of rheumatoid arthritis and systemic lupus erythematosus. The role of the innate immune system in rheumatoid arthritis and systemic lupus erythematosus pathophysiology is not only important in early stages but is essential to maintain the immune response and to allow disease progression. In rheumatoid arthritis, genetic and environmental factors are involved in the initial stimulation of the innate immune response in which macrophages are the main participants, as well as fibroblast-like synoviocytes. In systemic lupus erythematosus, all the cells contribute to the inflammatory response, but the complement system is the major effector of the inflammatory process. Detecting alterations in the normal function of these cells, besides its contribution to the understanding of the pathophysiology of autoimmune diseases, could help to establish new treatment strategies for these diseases.
