Can stress relief ease lupus symptoms? new study investigates

NCT ID NCT01351662

Summary

This study tested whether a stress management program could help African American lupus patients feel less stressed and improve their quality of life. Researchers worked with 30 participants to see if learning stress-reduction techniques could lower their perceived stress and change biological stress markers measured in saliva. The goal was to gather early evidence on whether this type of support could be a helpful part of managing lupus.
