Lupus flare and recurrent lupus nephritis following kidney transplantation in patients with lupus nephritis
Approximately 10% of patients with LN experienced an SLE flare after transplantation, with recurrent LN being the most frequent manifestation. Anti-dsDNA antibody titers before transplantation were significantly related to the risk of an SLE flare. Notably, preemptive transplantation was associated with a reduced risk of flares following transplantation.
