ObjectiveTo examine change in health-related quality of life in association with clinical outcomes of neuropsychiatric events in systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE).MethodsAn international study evaluated newly diagnosed SLE patients for neuropsychiatric events attributed to SLE and non-SLE causes. The outcome of events was determined by a physician-completed seven-point scale and compared with patient-completed Short Form 36 (SF-36) health survey questionnaires. Statistical analysis used linear mixed-effects regression models with patient-specific random effects.Results274 patients (92% female; 68% Caucasian), from a cohort of 1400, had one or more neuropsychiatric event in which the interval between assessments was 12.3±2 months. The overall difference in change between visits in mental component summary (MCS) scores of the SF-36 was significant (p<0.0001) following adjustments for gender, ethnicity, centre and previous score. A consistent improvement in neuropsychiatric status (N=295) was associated with an increase in the mean (SD) adjusted MCS score of 3.66 (0.89) in SF-36 scores. Between paired visits when the neuropsychiatric status consistently deteriorated (N=30), the adjusted MCS score decreased by 4.00 (1.96). For the physical component summary scores the corresponding changes were +1.73 (0.71) and −0.62 (1.58) (p<0.05), respectively. Changes in SF-36 subscales were in the same direction (p<0.05; with the exception of role physical). Sensitivity analyses confirmed these findings. Adjustment for age, education, medications, SLE disease activity, organ damage, disease duration, attribution and characteristics of neuropsychiatric events did not substantially alter the results.ConclusionChanges in SF-36 summary and subscale scores, in particular those related to mental health, are strongly associated with the clinical outcome of neuropsychiatric events in SLE patients.

Comorbidity Index

Objective.The aim of this study was to identify whether comorbidity status is associated with organ damage in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE).Methods.A total of 502 patients with SLE enrolled in the KORean lupus Network were consecutively recruited. Data included demographics, age-adjusted Charlson Comorbidity Index (CCIa), disease activity indexes, the Systemic Lupus International Collaborating Clinics/American College of Rheumatology Damage Index (SDI), the Medical Outcomes Study Short Form-36 health survey (SF-36) score, and the Beck Depression Inventory (BDI) score.Results.Of the total patients, 21.1% (n = 106) experienced organ damage (SDI ≥ 1). Univariate correlation analysis revealed that SDI was not statistically correlated with any clinical variables (correlation coefficient r < 0.3 of all). There were significant differences in the BDI, mental component score of the SF-36, Systemic Lupus Erythematosus Disease Activity Index (SLEDAI), CCIa, C-reactive protein, and mean dose of corticosteroid between non-damage (SDI = 0) and damage (SDI ≥ 1) groups. The presence of damage to at least 1 organ in patients with SLE was found to be closely related with higher CCIa, higher SLEDAI, and mean dose of corticosteroid (OR 1.884, 95% CI 1.372–2.586, p < 0.001; OR 1.114, 95% CI 1.041–1.192, p = 0.002; OR 1.036, 95% CI 1.004–1.068, p = 0.026; respectively) in binary logistic regression analysis.Conclusion.This study suggests that organ damage as assessed by the SDI in Korean patients with SLE is related to comorbidities together with disease activity and corticosteroid exposure.

The Impact

Abstract Background Depression is common in systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) and is an unmeasured risk factor, yet its symptoms can be neglected in standard disease evaluations. The purpose of this study was to assess the frequency and the impact of depression on quality of life in SLE patients. We recruited 32 patients with SLE and 15 healthy control volunteers in the study. The following investigations were undertaken in each patient: clinical and rheumatologic assessment, SLE Disease Activity Index-2k (SLEDAI-2k), Beck Depression Inventory (BDI), Short-Form Health Survey (SF-36) questionnaire, and routine laboratory tests. Results There was a high percentage of depression (46.9%) in the SLE patients. Regarding quality of life (SF-36), there were significant affection of the physical and mental composite summary domains (PCS and MCS) scores in lupus patients compared with controls (P < 0.000 for both) with the same significant in depressed compared with non-depressed patients. SF-36 subscales (physical function, limit emotional, emotional wellbeing, and social function) were significantly affected in depressed lupus patients compared with non-depressed patients. There was a significant negative correlation between the score of MCS domain of SF-36 with BDI (P < 0.000) while positive correlation between SLEDAI score with depression score. In contrast, there were no significant correlations between MCS or PCS with age, duration of illness, or SLEDAI-2K. Conclusions Depression is common in SLE patients and had a negative impact on quality of life particularly on MCS domain and positive correlation with disease severity score.

Impaired Health

Background:Patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) experience a considerably impaired health-related quality of life (HRQoL) compared with the general population. Previous literature has implied an association between high body mass index (BMI) and HRQoL diminutions. However, data are scarce and further exploration in large study populations and, importantly, with regard to the clinical significance of this association is needed.Objectives:The aim of this study was to determine whether overweight and/or obesity were associated with impaired physical and/or mental HRQoL aspects in the SLE population of two large clinical trials.Methods:We utilised pooled baseline data from the BLISS-52 (NCT00424476) and BLISS-76 (NCT00410384) clinical trials of belimumab (N=1684). Access to data was granted by GlaxoSmithKline. The patients were stratified into four groups based on their body mass index (BMI), according to WHO guidelines. We conducted comparisons between non-overweight versus overweight, and non-obese versus obese SLE patients. HRQoL was self-reported using the Medical Outcomes Study (MOS) short form 36 (SF-36) health survey, the functional assessment of chronic illness therapy (FACIT)-Fatigue scale and the three-level EuroQol- 5 Dimension (EQ-5D) questionnaire. We explored whether the differences in scores were clinically meaningful using previously determined thresholds for minimal clinically important differences (MCIDs). The non-parametric Mann-Whitney U test was used for comparisons between different BMI groups. Linear regression analysis was next applied to test independence in multivariable models, adjusting for age, sex, ethnicity, disease duration, disease activity, organ damage and standard of care treatment.Results:Forty-four per cent (44%) of the patients had a BMI score over the normal range, and 18% were obese. The overweight group performed worse than the non-overweight with regard to FACIT-Fatigue scores (mean ± standard deviation: 27.7 ± 12.1 vs 32.0 ± 11.3; P<0.001), EQ-5D score (0.70 ± 0.19 vs 0.76 ± 0.18; P<0.001) and all SF-36 subscales and component summaries. The differences were greater than the MCIDs for physical component summary (PCS) scores (36.9 ± 9.3 vs 40.8 ± 9.6; P<0.001), physical functioning (53.3 ± 25.1 vs 63.6 ± 25-1; P<0.001), role physical (48.0 ± 27.1 vs 55.6 ± 26.9; P<0.001), bodily pain (43.8 ± 22.4 vs 52.5 ± 25.1; P<0.001), vitality (39.6 ± 21.7 vs 46.6 ± 21.3; P<0.001), and social functioning scores (55.8 ± 25.2 vs 62.6 ± 25.2; P<0.001). Likewise, obese patients reported worse FACIT-Fatigue scores (25.7 ± 11.9 vs 31.1 ± 11.6; P<0.001), EQ-5D scores (0.68 ± 0.20 vs 0.75 ± 0.18; P<0.001) and clinically important diminutions of HRQoL in all SF-36 items, except for the mental component summary (MCS), role emotional and mental health.In multivariable linear regression analysis, the overweight and obese group showed worse PCS scores (standardised coefficient: β=-0.09; P<0.001 and β=-0.13; P<0.001, respectively) and FACIT-Fatigue scores (β=-0.11; P<0.001 and β=-0.10; P<0.001, respectively), and overweight patients had significantly impaired MCS scores (β=-0.05; P=0.039), irrespective of other factors. High disease activity and organ damage were associated with impaired HRQoL in all aspects, while Asian patients reported better PCS scores (and β=0.29; P=0.007) and FACIT-Fatigue scores (β=0.33; P=0.002).Conclusion:BMI above normal was highly associated with HRQoL impairment, especially in physical aspects. Further survey to examine causality is warranted to support structured weight control strategies as an intervention towards a more favourable HRQoL.Disclosure of Interests:None declared

We aimed to validate the reliability of the Medical Outcomes Study Short Form-36 (SF-36) among Japanese patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). Japanese patients with SLE ( n = 233) completed the SF-36 and other related demographic questionnaires, and physicians simultaneously completed the SLE Disease Activity Index 2000 (SLEDAI-2K) and the Systemic Lupus International Collaborating Clinics Damage Index (SDI). Patients were prospectively followed for a repeat assessment the following year. The SF-36 subscales demonstrated acceptable internal consistency (Cronbach’s α of 0.85–0.89), and an overall good test–retest reliability (intraclass correlation coefficient >0.70). The average baseline SF-36 subscale/summary scores except for “bodily pain” were significantly lower than those of the Japanese general population ( p < 0.05). The SDI showed an inverse correlation with the SF-36 subscale/summary scores except for “vitality” and “mental component summary” at baseline, whereas the SLEDAI-2K did not. In the second year, “social functioning” and “mental component summary” of the SF-36 deteriorated among patients whose SDI or SLEDAI-2K score increased (effect sizes < −0.20). In conclusion, the SF-36 demonstrated acceptable reliability among Japanese patients with SLE. Health-related quality of life measured by the SF-36 was reduced in Japanese patients with SLE and associated with disease damage, rather than disease activity.

AimsTo determine whether the proportion of time systemic lupus erythematosus patients achieve remission/low disease activity state (LDAS) is associated with a better quality of life (QoL).Patients and methodsPatients from a well-established multiethnic, multicentre US cohort were included: remission: Systemic Lupus Activity Measure (SLAM) score=0, prednisone≤5 mg/day and no immunosuppressants); LDAS not in remission, SLAM score≤3, prednisone≤7.5 mg/day, no immunosuppressants; the combined proportion of time patients were in these states was the independent variable. The endpoints were the Physical and Mental Components Summary measures (PCS and MCS, respectively) and the individual subscales of the Short Form (SF)-36 at the last visit. Linear regression was used to estimate the association between the proportion of follow-up time in remission/LDAS and the SF-36 measures with and without adjustment for possible confounders.ResultsFour hundred and eighty-three patients were included. The per cent of time on remission/LDAS was associated with better QoL after adjusting for potential confounders; for the PCS the parameter estimate was 9.47 (p<0.0001), for the MCS 5.89 (p=0.0027), and for the subscales they ranged between 7.51 (p=0.0495) for mental health and 31.79 (p<0.0001) for role physical.ConclusionsThe per cent of time lupus patients stay on remission/LDAS is associated with a better QoL as measured by SF-36.

ObjectivesUsing a reversible multistate model, we prospectively examined neuropsychiatric (NP) events for attribution, outcome and association with health-related quality of life (HRQoL), in an international, inception cohort of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) patients.MethodsAnnual assessments for 19 NP events attributed to SLE and non-SLE causes, physician determination of outcome and patient HRQoL (short-form (SF)-36 scores) were measured. Time-to-event analysis and multistate modelling examined the onset, recurrence and transition between NP states.ResultsNP events occurred in 955/1827 (52.3%) patients and 592/1910 (31.0%) unique events were attributed to SLE. In the first 2 years of follow-up the relative risk (95% CI) for SLE NP events was 6.16 (4.96, 7.66) and non-SLE events was 4.66 (4.01, 5.43) compared with thereafter. Patients without SLE NP events at initial assessment had a 74% probability of being event free at 10 years. For non-SLE NP events the estimate was 48%. The majority of NP events resolved over 10 years but mortality was higher in patients with NP events attributed to SLE (16%) versus patients with no NPSLE events (6%) while the rate was comparable in patients with non-SLE NP events (7%) compared with patients with no non-SLE events (6%). Patients with NP events had lower SF-36 summary scores compared with those without NP events and resolved NP states (p<0.001).ConclusionsNP events occur most frequently around the diagnosis of SLE. Although the majority of events resolve they are associated with reduced HRQoL and excess mortality. Multistate modelling is well suited for the assessment of NP events in SLE.

Objective.Health related quality of life (HRQOL) is an important patient-reported outcome in systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). We evaluated the psychometric properties of 2 widely used preference-based generic HRQOL measures, EuroQol-5D (EQ-5D) and Short Form-6D (SF-6D), among United States patients with SLE.Methods.Patients with SLE enrolled at an academic institution were assessed for self-reported generic HRQOL (EQ-5D, Medical Outcomes Study SF-36), disease activity, and disease damage SF-6D. Physical Component Score (PCS) and Mental Component Score (MCS) were calculated from SF-36. Criterion validity, convergent validity, and known-groups comparisons were evaluated for EQ-5D and SF-6D. Sensitivity to change (t tests, effect size) was evaluated in a subset of the cohort followed longitudinally.Results.One hundred sixty-seven patients with SLE were enrolled. Related domains on the EQ-5D and SF-36 correlated strongly, e.g., mobility and physical functioning (r = 0.60), whereas unrelated domains showed weak to moderate correlation. EQ-5D index, EQ-5D visual analog scale, and SF-6D score correlated strongly among each other as well as with most domains of SF-36. Both EQ-5D and SF-6D indices differentiated among patients of varied disease severity. EQ-5D and SF-6D were found to be sensitive to self-reported change in health but insensitive to change in disease activity longitudinally. Disease activity and damage showed weak correlation with HRQOL measures.Conclusion.The SF-6D and EQ-5D exhibited satisfactory psychometric properties for use among US patients with SLE. Measures of disease activity and damage were weakly correlated with HRQOL, suggesting that HRQOL is an important complementary source of information about patients with SLE.

Abstract Objective Patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) display symptoms that are not always related to disease activity and may distort clinical trial results. Recently, a clinical categorization based on the presence of type 1 (inflammatory manifestations) and/or type 2 (widespread pain, fatigue, depression) symptoms has been proposed in SLE. Our aim was to develop a type 2 score derived from the Short-Form health survey (SF-36) to categorize SLE patients and to compare immunological and transcriptomic profiles between groups. Methods Seventeen items from the SF-36 were selected to build a type 2 score for 50 SLE patients (100 visits; LUPUCE cohort) and the SLEDAI was used to define type 1 symptoms. Patients were categorized in four groups: minimal (no symptoms), type 1, type 2 and mixed (both type 1 and type 2 symptoms). Clinical, immunological and transcriptomic profiles were compared between the groups. Results Type 2 scores ranged from 0 to 31, with a cut-off value of 14 (75th percentile). The sample categorization was: minimal in 39%, type 1 in 37%, type 2 in 9% and mixed in 15%. Type 2 patients were older than minimal patients and had a longer disease duration than type 1 and mixed patients. Immunological data and modular interferon signatures did not differ between the groups. Conclusion Patients with SLE can be categorized into four clinical groups using the SLEDAI score and our SF-36-derived type 2 score. This categorization is non-redundant with immunological or transcriptomic profiles and could prove useful to stratify patients in clinical trials.

Objective.To prospectively examine neuropsychiatric (NP) events and their association with health related quality of life (HRQOL) over time in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE).Methods.In an observational cohort study from a single academic center, NP events and their attribution were identified at enrollment and at annual assessments for up to 7 years. NP events were characterized using the American College of Rheumatology case definitions; other variables were global SLE disease activity and cumulative organ damage. The outcomes of NP events were recorded and self-report HRQOL was measured with the mental (MCS) and physical (PCS) component summary scores of the Medical Outcomes Study Short Form-36.Results.There were 209 patients, 88% female and 92% Caucasian, with a mean (standard deviation) age of 43.7 (13.8) years. Followup was available in 175/209 (84%) patients. There were 299 NP events in 132/209 (63%) patients over a mean followup of 3.6 (2.5) years. Thirty-one percent of NP events in 54 patients were attributed to SLE. Multivariate analysis indicated lower MCS scores in patients with NP events compared to those without events (p < 0.001) regardless of attribution. The group means for PCS scores were significantly lower in patients with NP events (p < 0.001) regardless of attribution. There was no association between HRQOL and cumulative organ damage, nor between NP events and the progression of organ damage.Conclusion.The association of lower HRQOL with NP events over time, which is independent of progression in cumulative organ damage, emphasizes the persistent negative effect of NP events in the lives of patients with SLE.
