Presentation of
autoimmune disease
A disease in which the body produces antibodies that attack its own tissues, leading to the deterioration and in some cases to the destruction of such tissue.
autoimmune disease
include systemic lupus erythematosus, Sjogren syndrome, Hashimoto thyroiditis, rheumatoid arthritis, juvenile (type 1) diabetes, polymyositis, scleroderma, Addison disease, vitiligo, pernicious anemia, glomerulonephritis, and pulmonary fibrosis.
Examples of autoimmune diseases
They are mainly two types
1. Systemic disorders2. Local disorders
Types of auto immune disease
Systemic disorders involve autoantibodies that are not specific to antigens found on certain tissues. Examples include:
Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) Goodpasture’s syndrome Sarcoidosis Scleroderma Rheumatoid arthritis Dermatomyositis
Systemic disorders
Examples of local disorders that are specific to a particular tissue or organ
Dermatomyositis Psoriasis Vitiligo Alopecia areata Hemolytic anemia Antiphospholipid antibody syndrome Pernicious anemia
Local disorders
Autoimmune diseases affect many parts of the body. The most common organs and tissue affected are:
joints muscles skin red blood cells blood vessels connective tissue endocrine glands
symptoms
Diagnosed by clinical symptoms. Confirmed by detecting the auto Ab in the serum of the
patients. Autoantibodies are demonstrated by immunoflurescent Ab
test, haemagglutination, Complement fixation, immunodiffusion, Radio immuno assay, etc.
Diagnosis of Auto immune disease
Some autoimmune diseases are treated with medications that alleviate specific symptoms.
Haemolytic anaemia: Treated with Vit B12
Throtoxicosis: Treated with antithyroid drugs. Myasthenia Gravis: Treated with Choline estrase inhibitors Rhemotoid Arthritis: Anti-inflammatory drugs Lupes Erythematosus: Treated with immono suppresive or
antimitiotic drugs such as Corticosteoid,
Treatment
• Autoimmune diseases and conditions exist whenthe body produces abnormal cells, which attackthe body, itself• Most autoimmune diseases strike women moreoften than men• The causes of autoimmune diseases are notknown but some autoimmune diseases seem torun in families• Strike any part of the body, symptoms varywidely and diagnosis and treatment are oftendifficult• Medical science is striving to design therapiesthat prevent autoimmune diseases
