Abstract

Difficulties in diagnosing of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) are due to the fact that often the appearance of advanced clinical signs of the disease is preceded by an asymptomatic period with minimal laboratory manifestations of the disease. If less than 4 2012 SLICC criteria are met, the term «incomplete» SLE is currently used in clinical practice. The presented lecture considers in details autoimmune phenomena in the asymptomatic period of the disease (so-called preclinical SLE), characterizes «incomplete» SLE, its clinical and immunological features, problems of early diagnosis, predictors of the transformation of «incomplete» SLE into «accurate» SLE, presents algorithm for diagnosing and managing that certain category of patients, as well as modern tactics of curation.
