Systemic lupus erythematosus in Europe at the change of the millennium:Lessons from the "Euro-Lupus Cohort"

The bEuro-Lupus CohortQ is composed by 1000 patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) that have been followed prospectively since 1991. These patients have been gathered by a European consortium—the bEuro-Lupus Project GroupQ.
