The constellation was once known as Arctophylax, which means "the protector of the Bear". The Romans called him Venator Ursae, "the Bear Hunter". Boötes is the home of Arcturis, the 4th brightest star in the night sky. Arcturis is an orange-red giant star about 20 times the size of the sun. Boötes contains no Messier objects.

Extractions: Home Immune Lupus Erythematosus (LE) of the skin comprises an uncommon group of skin disorders including: Jessner's lymphocytic infiltrate may also be a type of cutaneous lupus. Cutaneous LE most often affects young adult women (aged 20 to 50). Cutaneous LE can be provoked by sunlight but it is actually more common in dark skinned than in fair skinned people. Sunscreens do not totally prevent it. Discoid LE In the most common form, discoid LE, unsightly red scaly patches develop which leave white scars. Discoid LE predominantly affects the cheeks and nose, but sometimes involves the upper back, V of neck, and backs of hands. Bald areas can develop if the hair follicles are involved. Discoid LE may affect the lips causing ulcers and scaling.

Extractions: National Institutes of Health National Institute of Arthritis and Musculoskeletal and Skin Diseases Symptoms of Lupus Each person with lupus has slightly different symptoms that can range from mild to severe and may come and go over time. However, some of the most common symptoms of lupus include painful or swollen joints (arthritis), unexplained fever, and extreme fatigue. A characteristic red skin rash-the so-called butterfly or malar rash-may appear across the nose and cheeks. Rashes may also occur on the face and ears, upper arms, shoulders, chest, and hands. Because many people with lupus are sensitive to sunlight (called photosensitivity), skin rashes often first develop or worsen after sun exposure. Common Symptoms of Lupus Other symptoms of lupus include chest pain, hair loss, anemia (a decrease in red blood cells), mouth ulcers, and pale or purple fingers and toes from cold and stress. Some people also experience headaches, dizziness, depression, confusion, or seizures. New symptoms may continue to appear years after the initial diagnosis, and different symptoms can occur at different times. In some people with lupus, only one system of the body, such as the skin or joints, is affected. Other people experience symptoms in many parts of their body. Just how seriously a body system is affected varies from person to person. The following systems in the body also can be affected by lupus.
The Genetics Of Systemic Lupus Erythematosus Family Study - What Is Lupus?
Open research study at University of Minnesota seeking multiple family members with systemic disease to investigate why certain women are prone to this illness through identification of inherited genetic factors.
http://www.lupusstudy.org/

Extractions: The Genetics of Systemic Lupus Erythematosus A research study at the University of Minnesota, sponsored by the National Institute of Health and the Lupus Foundation of Minnesota. Our goal is to identify and understand the genetic factors that contribute to Lupus. We hope to discover why certain people get Lupus by identifying these inherited genetic factors. This research will allow development of better ways to diagnose and treat this disease. Do you or a family member have Systemic Lupus? If so, you can be involved in the search for the cause. We are looking nationwide for individuals with lupus or families with two or more family members with lupus.

Extractions: Lupus is a chronic inflammatory disease that can affect various parts of the body, especially the skin, joints, blood, and kidneys. The body's immune system normally makes proteins called antibodies to protect the body against viruses, bacteria, and other foreign materials. These foreign materials are called antigens. In an autoimmune disorder such as lupus, the immune system loses its ability to tell the difference between foreign substances (antigens) and its own cells and tissues. The immune system then makes antibodies directed againt "self." These antibodies, called "auto-antibodies," react with the "self" antigens to form immune complexes. The immune complexes build up in the tissues and can cause inflammation, injury to tissues, and pain. For most people, lupus is a mild disease affecting only a few organs. For others, it may cause serious and even life-threatening problems. More than 16,000 Americans develop lupus each year. It is estimated that 500,000 to 1.5 million Americans have been diagnosed with lupus. For information about the Lupus Foundation of NH

Extractions: Feedback Lupus: Lupus is an autoimmune disease affecting mostly women and causing various effects throughout different parts of the body. Its severity can range from very mild to extremely serious depending on which body organs are afflicted. Lupus is difficult to diagnose and often misdiagnosed unless there is a characteristic symptom such as the butterfly-shaped rash over the cheeks. There is no single definitive blood test for lupus and doctors have to make the diagnosis based on a variety of symptoms and diagnostic tests . Lupus is one of a group of conditions with vague symptoms such as fatigue or malaise , and may need to be distinguished from fibromyalgia chronic fatigue syndrome Type 2 diabetes depression ... multiple sclerosis , or various other conditions.

The immune system normally protects the body against viruses, bacteria and other foreign materials. In an autoimmune system disorder like lupus, the immune system loses its ability to tell the difference between foreign substances and its own cells and tissues.

For others, it may cause serous and even life threatening conditions. More than 16,000 Americans develop lupus each year. It is estimated that up to 2,000,000 Americans have been diagnosed with lupus. Lupus can be difficult to diagnose as the symptoms come and go and mimic other illnesses. The symptoms include transient joint and muscle pain, a rash caused by or worsened by sunlight, sores in the nose and mouth, low grade fevers, hair loss, pleurisy, fatigue, appetite loss and/or painful sensitivity of the fingers to cold. While medical science has not yet found a cure for lupus, new research brings unexpected findings and increased hope each year.
