Study Summary

Background: Viral infections such as COVID-19 may lead to flare-ups in people with systemic autoimmune diseases (SAD). These infections may also change the function of their immune system and/or cause problems with their blood vessels. Researchers want to learn how people with SAD respond to treatments or vaccines for COVID-19. Objective: To understand how COVID-19 affects inflammation, the immune system, and blood vessels in adults and children with autoimmune diseases. Eligibility: People ages 15 and older who have been diagnosed with an autoimmune disease or are a healthy volunteer Design: Participants will have a screening visit. This will include: Medical history and physical exam EKG Chest x-ray COVID-19 test. A swab will be put in the participant s nose or the back of their mouth. Blood and urine tests Participants will be placed into 1 of 4 groups: 1. Those with previously documented COVID-19 infection or COVID vaccination 2. Those with a recently known COVID-19 exposure or vaccination 3. Those with no known COVID-19 exposure or vaccination 4. Those who developed an acute COVID-19 infection Depending on their group, participants will have 1 to 5 more visits. These will occur over 12 to 18 months. Visits may include: FDG PET/CT scan. Participants will lie in a doughnut-shaped machine. The machine creates pictures of the body. For the scan, they will have a radioactive substance injected into their arm through an IV. Kidney function tests Non-invasive vascular studies test. These tests are similar to what it feels like to have blood pressure checked.

Primary Outcome

Measures of Immune dysregulation (gene expression changes in immune cells, immune cell subset proportions, serum cytokine and autoantibody levels and repertoire), vasculopathy (changes in vascular function tests (CAVI, Endopat and sphygmocor quantification) and , in some cases, vascular inflammation (as measured by FDG-PET CT) before and after COVID-19.
