ABSTRACT

Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is a diffuse connective tissue disease characterized by immune inflammation, which often has multiple system involvement. The late cause of death is coronary atherosclerosis (AS) and its complications. Early atherosclerosis in SLE patients may be related to related microvascular damage and dysfunction caused by long-term immune disorders and lipid metabolism disorders.
