About This Presentation
Join the Lupus Society of Illinois and ALL IN™ for a virtual discussion featuring Dr. Alvin Wells about lupus and lupus nephritis. The presentation and Q&A are brought to you by Aurinia Pharma U.S., Inc.
Lupus Nephritis is a disease involving inflammation of the kidneys caused by systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). In lupus nephritis, the kidneys cannot function properly to remove waste from the blood and control the amount of fluids in the body.
About 50% of people with lupus will go on to develop lupus nephritis and about one third will have lupus nephritis at the time of diagnosis.
This presentation explains what lupus nephritis is, the treatments available and the resources accessible to the entire lupus community.
