Despite decades of research on the disproportionate impact of infection on those with rheumatic disease, patients in this population are less likely than those without rheumatic disease to undergo routine vaccination against preventable diseases.

New-onset SLE during the third trimester of pregnancy is difficult to diagnose, although it should be suspected when symptoms of preeclampsia persist after delivery.
Case studies published recently have shed light on the clinical challenges, diverse presentation, and potential mechanisms related to co-occurring rheumatic diseases and neurodegenerative disorders.
