Ann Rheum Dis: Different Definitions of Systemic Lupus Relief

The mitigation of systemic erythematosus (SLE) is currently defined by the combination of "Clinical SLE Disease Activity Index (cSLEDAI) s0", "Physician's Overall Assessment (PGA)0.5" and "Ponisson (PDN) s 5 mg/day"The study explores the performance of individual or joint use of these projects in defining mitigation and predicting SLICC/ACR damage indicesresearchers tested seven potential definitions of remission in patients with 5 years of follow-up: PDN to 5 mg/day; days; cSLEDAI plus PGA 0.5; cSLEDAI s 0 plus PDN s 5mg/day; cSLEDAI plus PDN plus 5 mg/day plus PGA 0.5The effect son of these definitions on damage was evaluated by Poisson regression analysisThe best performance is defined as the lowest information criteria (AIC and BIC) for Chichi and BayesianPositive and negative predictions were calculated to determine the increase in non-injuryincluded 646 patients (average course of 9.2 to 6.9?? year)In multi-factor analysis, no injury is indicated by continuous mitigation of 2 years according to all definitions (OR, 95% CI: PGA 0.5 0.631, 0.444-0.896; cSLEDAI.0.531,0.371-0.759; PGA 0.5 plus PDN/5mg/day 0.554,05.05.05.05.05.05;85.85 cSLEDAI plus PGA 0.504,0.400-0.826; cSLEDAI-0 plus PDN-5mg/day 0.543, 0.376-0.785; cSLEDAI-0 plus PDN-5mg/day plus PGA 0.532,0.36-03.78p average 0.01), but PDN is required to last 4 consecutive years (OR 0.534, 95% CI 0.325-0.877, p-0.013)Positive and negative predictions are similar; however, cSLEDAI is the best performance (AIC 1082.90, BIC 1109.72, p 0.0001)the reduction of the mitigation time (1.8 and -1.5 years per patient) was reduced by cSLEDAI plus 0.5 and/or PDN plus 5 mg/day, but the performance of the cSLEDAI s0 predicted damage was not improvedcSLEDAI is the most readily available definition of mitigation, which is the best performance in short- and medium-term follow-up to predict damage progress
