Summary

Systemic rheumatological diseases often occur in young women of childbearing age and can therefore impact fertility. There are diseases, such as arthritis, which present no contraindication to assisted reproductive techniques (ARTs), because there is no influence on the disease itself if the disease activity at conception is stable. On the other hand, patients suffering from connective tissue diseases, primarily Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE) and patients suffering from primary or SLE-related Anti-Phospholipid Antibody Syndrome (APS), deserve more targeted therapies both in the context of ARTs and in the ensuing pregnancy.

To evaluate the response to ARTs in patients with systemic rheumatological diseases, both in terms of reactivation of the underlying pathology and in terms of ARTs outcome.

Interventions

OTHER

collection and analysis of treatments and procedures already performed by normal clinical practice

The patients' anthropometric variables; laboratory test results; PMA techniques (types of fertilization/drugs used for stimulation) and the outcome of the eventual pregnancy (ongoing treatment during the pregnancy itself, development of maternal/fetal complications, such as hypertension, preeclmpsia, thrombotic events, renal failure, disease flare, neonatal outcome) and data on the type of ovarian stimulation drug treatment.
