The Social Factors, Epigenomics, and Lupus in African American Women (SELA) study: protocol for an observational mechanistic study examining the interplay of multiple individual and social factors on lupus outcomes in a health disparity population

2022-03-12

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Introduction</h4> Despite the disproportional impact of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) on historically marginalized racial and ethnic communities, the individual and sociocultural factors underlying these health disparities remain elusive. We report the design and methods for a study aimed at identifying the epigenetic mechanisms by which risk and resiliency social factors affect gene function and thereby...
