Overview

The most potent risk factor in the development of systemic lupus erythematosus is sex.[1] Other risk factors include HLA genetic mutations, being African Americans, Asians, and non-Causcasian, and infections.

Risk Factors

The underlying cause of this autoimmune disease is not clear. Clinical data shows that the onset of systemic lupus erythematosus is associated with the following factors:

  • Infections can stimulates some antigen specific cells and lead to SLE disease:
  • Ultraviolet (UV) light
  • Cigarette smoking [6]
  • Crystalline silica exposure in work environment (e.g. cleaning powders, soil, pottery materials, cement etc.) [7]
  • Drug allergy [8]
  • Caring a pet (especially pet dog)
  • Moderate alcohol drinking might be protective for SLE [9]
