Summary

This study tested whether taking coenzyme Q10 (a natural supplement) along with standard lupus treatment can improve health in children with lupus. Sixty children aged 6-16 with moderate to severe lupus took either CoQ10 or a placebo for 3 months. Researchers measured changes in disease activity and cell energy problems to see if the supplement helps control the disease.
