List of autoimmune diseases

From WikiMD's Wellness Encyclopedia

This list of autoimmune diseases is categorized by organ and tissue type to help locate diseases that may be similar.

Autoimmune diseases qualifiers[edit | edit source]

Overview of the qualifiers for the list.

Other Qualifiers
A "Accepted" in prior version of this table
C A disease, regarded as autoimmune, that is often found in individuals with another autoimmune condition. This designation is given to diseases that are classified by Rose and Bona as having "circumstantial" evidence of autoimmune etiology. Diseases in this list with a "C" are, therefore, actual autoimmune diseases, rather than comorbid symptoms, which appear after this list.
E Disease is an autoimmune response triggered by a specific environmental factor
F Disease is only caused by autoimmunity in only a fraction of those who suffer from it
I Described as an autoinflammatory disease
L Evidence to indicate autoimmunity is extremely limited or circumstantial
M Disease appears under Autoimmune Diseases in MeSH
N Not listed in prior version of this table
R Disease appeared in prior version but has been renamed. In renaming, precedence has been given to scientific names over those based on discoverers.
S "Suspected" in the prior version of this table
T Disease has a known trigger, such as viral infection, vaccination, or injury
X An extremely rare disease, which would suggest limited opportunity to study it and conclusively determine whether it is caused by autoimmunity
Y Listed in the prior version of this table with "Accepted/Suspected" left blank

Autoimmune comorbidities[edit | edit source]

This list includes conditions that are not diseases but signs common to autoimmune disease. Some, such as chronic fatigue syndrome, are controversial.[2] These conditions are included here because they are frequently listed as autoimmune diseases but should not be included in the list above until there is more consistent evidence.

Non-autoimmune[edit | edit source]

At this time, there is not sufficient evidence—direct, indirect, or circumstantial—to indicate that these diseases are caused by autoimmunity. These conditions are included here because:

  1. The disease was listed in the prior version of this table
  2. The disease is included in several widely used lists of autoimmune disease and is shown here to ensure that a person visiting this page does not conclude that the disease was not considered. Before moving a condition from here to the list of autoimmune diseases, references should be provided in the Wikipedia page for the condition that point to evidence, direct or indirect, that it is an autoimmune disease.
