Dr. Mpoti Seboka

Mpoti Seboka is a South African clinician-researcher in rheumatology whose work centers on inflammatory joint diseases and their systemic complications. Affiliated with national collaborative initiatives, Seboka has contributed to updated South African guidelines for rheumatoid arthritis management, promoting treat-to-target strategies, early intervention, comorbidity screening, and context-sensitive care within the local healthcare landscape.

Research highlights a strong focus on cardiovascular and thromboembolic risk in patients with rheumatoid arthritis, juvenile idiopathic arthritis, and adult-onset Still’s disease. Publications in leading medical journals address atherosclerotic disease, heart failure, and venous thromboembolism as underrecognized complications of chronic inflammation, emphasizing proactive screening and tailored prevention strategies in middle-income settings.

Seboka’s work combines case-based clinical insight with guideline development and evidence-based recommendations. Although the current analysis is based on limited available publications, the contributions demonstrate expertise in inflammatory rheumatic diseases, multimorbidity, and health equity, with particular attention to adapting global recommendations to the South African context.
