Systemic lupus erythematosus and critical illness polyneuropathy

Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is a chronic disease of connective tissue with multi-organ involvement. Manifestation in the nervous system is one of the most difficult symptoms to assess and interpret. The aim of the study is to indicate diagnostic problems in patients with SLE in whom neurolog...
