Neuropsychiatric manifestations in juvenile systemic lupus erythematosus: what’s the weight of headache?

چکیده
Methods The records of all patients satisfying the ACR criteria for JSLE admitted to our Hospital from 1980 to May 2014 were retrospectively reviewed. Disease activity at onset was measured by SLE disease activity index (SLEDAI); organ damage was assessed at last follow-up using the SLICC/ ACR Damage Index (SDI). Using the 1999 ACR nomenclature for neuropsychiatric (NP) lupus syndromes, patients were divided in patients with (NPSLE) and without (nNPSLE) NP involvement. Headache was defined as in the ACR nomenclature (ACR headache), as in SLEDAI (SLEDAI headache) and as “severe persistent headache; may be migrainous” (LHA).
