Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 6 Feb 2026

Brief summary (registry, in English)

Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is a chronic, autoimmune, inflammatory disease with the potential to affect any organ in the body. The most frequently affected anatomical regions include the skin, joints, pleura, pericardium, kidneys and the central nervous system. All systemic conditions observed in SLE cause functional deficiencies in daily life, fatigue, anxiety and depression, pain, sleep quality disorders, cognitive effects, cosmetic problems, social isolation, and all these characteristics negatively affect the quality of life of an individual with SLE. The aim of this study is to investigate the effects of clinical pilates exercises on pain, fatigue, functional capacity, flexibility, emotional state, sleep and quality of life in patients with SLE.
