                    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
