For more than 50 years, Dubois’ Lupus Erythematosus and Related Syndromes has been recognized internationally as the go-to clinical reference on lupus and other connective tissue diseases. From basic scientific principles to practical points of clinical management, the 10th edition provides extensive, authoritative coverage of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) and its related diseases in a logical, clearly written, user-friendly manner. It’s an ideal resource for rheumatologists and internal medicine practitioners who need a comprehensive clinical reference on all aspects of SLE, connective tissue diseases, and the antiphospholipid syndromes.
  • Provides complete clinical coverage of every aspect of cutaneous and systemic lupus erythematosus, including definitions, pathogenesis, autoantibodies, clinical and laboratory features, management, prognosis, and patient education.
  • Includes significant new content throughout: a new chapter on the endocrine system and hormones; newly distinct chapters on the heart and lung; new content on social disparities in lupus, clinical presentation of nephritis, and pulmonary hypertension; a new concluding chapter on future directions in the field; new basic science coverage of the microbiome, autoinflammatory, and monogenic lupus; and new coverage of diversity, inclusion, gender, compliance, and adherence.
  • Offers a fresh perspective from two new associate editors and many new authors with representation from 30 countries.
  • Contains an up-to-date overview of significant advances in cellular, molecular, and genetic technologies, including genetic advancements in identifying at-risk patients.
  • Discusses the clinical management of related disorders such as Sjogren’s syndrome, scleroderma, polymyositis, and antiphospholipid syndrome (APS).
  • Presents the knowledge and expertise of international contributors to provide new global perspectives on manifestations, diagnosis, and treatment.
  • Features a vibrant, full-color format, with graphs, algorithms, differential diagnosis comparisons, new and improved figures, and schematic diagrams throughout.
  • An eBook version is included with purchase. The eBook allows you to access all of the text, figures, and references, with the ability to search, customize your content, make notes and highlights, and have content read aloud.
