The BILAG-2004 systems tally—a novel way of representing the BILAG-2004 index scores longitudinally
OBJECTIVE This was an exploratory analysis to develop a new way of representing BILAG-2004 system scores longitudinally that would be clinically meaningful and easier to analyse in comparison with multiple categorical variables. METHODS Data from a multicentre longitudinal study of SLE patients (the BILAG-2004 index and therapy collected at every visit) were used. External responsiveness anal...
متن کاملNumerical scoring for the BILAG-2004 index
OBJECTIVE To develop an additive numerical scoring scheme for the BILAG-2004 index. METHODS SLE patients were recruited into this multi-centre cross-sectional study. At every assessment, data were collected on disease activity and therapy. Logistic regression was used to model an increase in therapy, as an indicator of active disease, by the BILAG-2004 index score in the nine systems. As both...
متن کاملNumerical scoring for the Classic BILAG index
OBJECTIVE To develop an additive numerical scoring scheme for the Classic BILAG index. METHODS SLE patients were recruited into this multi-centre cross-sectional study. At every assessment, data were collected on disease activity and therapy. Logistic regression was used to model an increase in therapy, as an indicator of active disease, by the Classic BILAG score in eight systems. As both in...
متن کاملBILAG-2004 index captures systemic lupus erythematosus disease activity better than SLEDAI-2000.
OBJECTIVE To assess the reliability of Systemic Lupus Erythematosus Disease Activity Index (SLEDAI)-2000 index in routine practice and its ability to capture disease activity as compared with the British Isles Lupus Assessment Group (BILAG)-2004 index. METHODS Patients with systemic lupus erythematosus from 11 centres were assessed separately by two raters in routine practice. Disease activit...
متن کاملDefinition and treatment of lupus flares measured by the BILAG index.
OBJECTIVES The BILAG index is a clinical measure of lupus disease activity. It is valid, reliable and sensitive to change. Scoring in the BILAG index is based upon the physician's intention to treat. A flare of active lupus is defined as a new A or B score in at least one system. The main aim of this study was to determine whether patients with a lupus flare are treated as expected from the pri...
