Abstract

The course of 81 patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) who had sera tested for antibody to extractable nuclear antigen (ENA) was studied to determine the effect of the presence of antiENA antibody on survivorship. There were no differences in percent survival between the patients with and without antibody to ENA or those with and without antibody to the ribonucleoprotein (RNP) component of ENA. We conclude that there is no prognostic advantage to the presence of either antiENA or antiRNP antibody in patients with SLE.

## Abstract ## Objective New examples support the concept that host immune responses to pathogenic organisms can act as the nidus for autoimmunity. Two such examples implicate the Epstein‐Barr virus (EBV) in systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), i.e., data consistent with SLE anti‐Sm and anti–60‐kd

## Abstract The clinical and renal histologic attributes of 135 systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) patients with DNA and/or Sm antibodies were compared to determine if the presence of the Sm antibodies served as a marker for a specific subset of SLE. Although Raynaud's phenomenon was more frequent
