Multimodal neurophysiological and psychometric evaluation among patients with systemic lupus erythematosus

Abstract: Objective:To determine some of the neuropsychiatric manifestations of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) by applying multimodal neurophysiological and psychometric studies.Patients and methods:Twenty-six SLE patients were evaluated for neurological and psychiatric disorders and compared with 26 healthy controls matched for age, sex, education, and social class. The severity of SLE disease was assessed. Each subject was subjected to the following examinations: laboratory, neurophysiology, magnetic resonance ima… Show more

“…A recent study found that the 30 day and lifetime prevalence for anxiety in SLE patients, including agoraphobia without panic disorder, generalized anxiety disorder and other anxiety disorder, were 46.5% and 52.1%, respectively 28. Similarly, another group found that the prevalence of anxiety, as measured by the HAM-A, was as high as 65.7% 30. Because of the high prevalence of anxiety, individual SLE patients should undergo psychiatric assessment for anxiety.…”

“…In this regard, concurrent results of anxiety among SLE were reported previously [ 15 , 16 ]. Thus, a prior study with the same study tool reported a higher prevalence and recommended a regular psychiatric assessment for anxiety in SLE [ 17 ]. In the same line, a previous meta-analysis reported a prevalence of anxiety of 40% [ 18 ]; meanwhile, another reported a prevalence of 28.7% in patients with SLE [ 15 ].…”

“…The potential severity and chronicity of SLE might well drive a higher incidence of these events (anxiety and depression). The clinical picture of SLE is complex, as additional factors such as corticosteroid use, anti-P ribosomal and anti-cardiolipin autoantibodies, disease severity, and overlapping SLE signs (arthritis) and symptoms (chronic pain) have been implicated [ 17 ].…”
