                1. Chronic inflammation, multiple organs
                  1. antinuclear antibodies (ANA) target nuclear self antigens
                    1. Inflammation in an SLE vessel shows activation of complement and inflammatory cell infiltration. Complications r/t increased vascular permeability are systemic, as the name implies, with multiple organs at in increase risk for damage and disease.
                      1. Serum labs typically show: elevated liver NZs, sed rate, C-reactive protein and creatinine ratio; heyolytic anemia, thrombocytopenia, leukopenia.Outcome of SLE flare: Prevent pancytopenia
                  2. abnormal immune function
                    1. etiology unclear; genetic susceptibility

                      1. hematuria, proteinurea
                      2. keratitis
                        1. rash (erythemia) is often first symptom
