| systemic-onset juvenile chronic arthritis | See: Systemic-onset juvenile rheumatoid arthritis (still's disease). (12 Dec 1998) |
| systemic-onset juvenile rheumatoid arthritis | <rheumatology> A form of joint disease, arthritis, that presents with systemic upset. Clinical signs: high intermittent fever, a salmon-coloured skin rash, swollen lymph glands, enlargement of the liver and spleen, and inflammation of the lungs (pleuritis) and around the heart (pericarditis). The arthritis itself may not be immediately apparent but once apparent, it may persist after the systemic symptoms have resolved. Synonym: Still's disease. (03 Jul 1999) |
| systemic poisoning | Any disease of toxic origin. Synonym: systemic poisoning. Origin: toxico-+ G. -osis, condition (05 Mar 2000) |
| systemic sclerosis | <rheumatology> A multisystem disorder of unknown aetiology. It is characterised by fibrosis (scarring) of the skin, blood vessels and internal organs. Involvement of the gastrointestinal tract, heart, kidneys and lungs is common. (09 Jan 1998) |
| systemic therapy | <pharmacology> Treatment that reaches and affects cells all over the body. (16 Dec 1997) |
| systemic vascular resistance | An index of arteriolar compliance or constriction throughout the body; equal to the blood pressure divided by the cardiac output. (05 Mar 2000) |
| systemic venous hypertension | Increased pressure in the veins ultimately leading to the right atrium nearly always due to disease of the right heart but occasionally due to blockade of one or both venae cavae. (05 Mar 2000) |

| juvenile rheumatoid arthritis, systemic-onset | Also known as systemic-onset juvenile chronic arthritis. Still's disease presents with systemic (bodywide) illness including high intermittent fever, a salmon-coloured skin rash, swollen lymph glands, enlargement of the liver and spleen, and inflammation of the lungs (pleuritis) and around the heart (pericarditis). The arthritis may not be immediately apparent but it does always surface and it may persists long after the systemic symptoms are gone. (12 Dec 1998) |
| chilblain lupus | Skin lesions seen in patients with lupus erythematosus, resembling the small, hardened nodular areas of a cold injury called chilblains. Synonym: chilblain lupus. (05 Mar 2000) |
| neonatal lupus | Lupus erythematosus occurring in newborn children of mothers who had lupus during pregnancy; anti-SSA antibodies usually should be screened for; 50% have anti-nuclear antibodies. A variety of skin lesions are seen, which can resolve or leave scarring; the syndrome usually resolves; however cardiac manifestations can be fatal. Some children develop systemic lupus later in life. (05 Mar 2000) |
| drug-induced lupus | <dermatology> An inflammatory autoimmune disorder, similar to lupus, that develops in response to the use of a particular medication. It is characterised by anti-histone antibodies. More benign than the usual disease, with less renal involvement. The syndrome clears after stopping the offending drug. Drugs that are known to cause this reaction include procainamide, isoniazid, sulphasalazine, hydralazine, methyldopa, phenytoin, chlorpromazine and penicillamine. The arthritis, cardiac, pulmonary and systemic features may be present, but the kidney involvement (nephritis) and neurologic disease are rare. Symptoms generally resolve spontaneously after stopping the medication. Complications include myocarditis, pericarditis, thrombocytopenic purpura and infections. (18 Jul 2002) |
| lupus | A systemic disease that results from an autoimmune mechanism. Individuals with lupus will produce antibodies to their own body tissues. The resultant inflammation can cause kidney damage, arthritis, pericarditis and vasculitis. (27 Sep 1997) |
| lupus anticoagulant | An immunoglobulin that interferes with blood coagulation and has antithromboplastin activity. This immunoglobulin can prolong blood clotting and occurs in approximately 25% of people with lupus. (27 Sep 1997) |
| systemic lupus erythematosus |
