Clinical and laboratory test data of 77 patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) were evaluated by factor analysis. Six factors representing disease patterns were extracted: cutaneous symptoms of alopecia, malar rash, rash and photosensitivity; renal involvement; the anticoagulant syndrome of phlebitis and partial thromboplastic time inversely related to platelet count; lymphopenia; viral or fibromyalgia symptoms of headache, nervousness, joint and muscle pain; and serology of anti-DNA antibodies and complement inversely related. Application of factor analysis reveals various clinical presentations of SLE.

Disseminated intravascular coagulation was induced in kittens by intraperitoneal inoculation of feline infectious peritonitis virus (FIPV). Kittens seronegative to FIPV survived significantly (P less than 0.05) longer than those seropositive to FIPV. Pyrexia, anemia, icterus, hyperbilirubinemia, and elevated concentrations of liver-specific enzymes were detected in the inoculated cats. Lesions induced included disseminated fibrinonecrotic and pyogranulomatous inflammation, hepatic necrosis, and widespread phlebitis and thrombosis. Localization of FIP viral antigen and immunoglobulin G was demonstrated in foci of heptic necrosis by immunofluorescence miroscopy. Lymphopenia, thrombocytopenia, hyperfibrinogenemia, and increased quantities of fibrin-fibrinogen degradation products were present in cats after the onset of clinical illness. Depression of factor VII, VIII, IX, X, XI, and XII plasma activities and prolongation of prothrombin and partial thromboplastin times also developed in infected cats. The accelerated onset of clinical disease and mortality in seropositive kittens vs seronegative kittens and the association of virus and antibody in multiple foci of hepatic necrosis suggest an immune-mediated component is involved in the pathogenesis of this disease.
