Inflammatory bowel disease in Systemic Lupus Erythematosus patients

Abstract
Abstract
Background: Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is a chronic inflammatory autoimmune disease with features of multisystem involvement, relapsing and remitting course. Diagnosis of both diseases is difficult as both may share the same gastrointestinal features. Some of the therapies used in IBD may induce lupus. Aim of the study: To detect the presence of IBD in SLE patients. Methods: Only19 studies investigating the coexistence of IBD in SLE patients were published from January 2000 to March 2017 searching the Medline, PubMed, Ovid, Trip and Cochrane database. We excluded 16 studies (case reports) as they lacked the inclusion criteria for the meta-analysis. Only three studies were included in this systematic review. The prevalence/frequency and its 95% CI are included or estimated whenever possible.
