#EULAR2024 OP0149 When the Doctor says YES but the patients say NO. Data from UK BILAG-BR in moderate to severe #lupus showed ~half patients who met clinical response did not improve their psychological wellbeing. Factors of discordant: ancestry, damage, SLEDAI-2K @RheumNow

[Sarah Dyball @sarahdyball1]

Fantastic presentation from @MiaRodziewicz using BILAG-BR data:

⭐️NPSLE had higher damage / disease activity
⭐️ NPSLE more likely to have APS ab
⭐️ RTX appears effective in NPSLE (no trials)
