Abstract
OBJECTIVES To measure the association between SLE remission and scores of patients-reported outcome (PRO) measures. METHODS We performed a prospective cohort study of SLE patients with a 2-year follow-up, using Lupus Patient-Reported Outcome (LupusPRO), Lupus Quality of Life (LupusQoL), Systemic Lupus Erythematosus Quality of Life (SLEQOL) and 36-item Short Form (SF-36) questionnaires. Remission was defined as remission off treatment (ROFT) and remission on treatment (RONT) according to the definitions of remission in SLE consensus. Mixed models accounting for repeated measures were used to compare groups as follow: ROFT and RONT vs no remission and lupus low disease activity state (LLDAS) vs no LLDAS. RESULTS A total of 1478 medical visits and 2547 PRO questionnaires were collected during the follow-up from the 336 recruited patients. A between-group difference in PRO scores reaching at least 5 points on a 0-100 scale was obtained in the following domains: lupus symptoms (LLDAS: +5 points on the 0-100 scale, RONT: +9, ROFT: +5), lupus medication (LLDAS: +5, RONT: +8, ROFT: +9), pain vitality (LLDAS: +6, RONT: +9, ROFT: +6) of LupusPRO; role emotional (LLDAS: +5, RONT: +8), role physical (RONT: +7 and ROFT: +7), bodily pain (RONT: +6), mental health (RONT: +5) and social functioning (RONT: +6) of SF-36. In contrast, a between-group difference reaching at least 5 points was not achieved for any of the LupusQoL and SLEQOL domains. CONCLUSIONS RONT, ROFT and LLDAS were associated with significant and clinically relevant higher QoL in most PRO domains of the LupusPRO (disease specific) and SF-36 (generic) questionnaires, but not with LupusQoL and SLEQOL disease-specific questionnaires.

Abstract
Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is a chronic disease that considerably hampers patient's daily living. Qualitative studies with patients' interviews have been conducted to describe the experiences and perspectives of adults living with SLE. Among existing generic and disease-specific quality of life (QOL) questionnaires, none succeeded to exhaustively measure patient's preoccupations. However, these tools are useful to quantify the burden of the disease. Social precariousness, socioeconomic status and education level are intimately correlated to QOL measures, either generic or disease-specific. Musculoskeletal disease activity is also associated with a lower QOL. Using disease-specific tools may be useful because of a better aptitude to record an improvement in health status. Moreover, using generic and disease-specific questionnaires together may help to identify factors associated with a lower quality of life but not related to SLE from the patient's perspective (such as smoking or obesity). Developing new ways of recording QOL data in the future may help to evaluate the real benefit of using QOL scales in daily practice.

Factors Associated with Health-Related Quality of Life in Mexican Lupus Patients Using the LupusQol. PLoS One 2017; 12:e0170209. [PMID: 28114336 PMCID: PMC5256863 DOI: 10.1371/journal.pone.0170209] [Citation(s) in RCA: 28] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/04/2016] [Accepted: 01/02/2017] [Indexed: 01/10/2023] Open
Abstract
Introduction Health-related quality of life (HRQOL) is affected by numerous clinical variables, including disease activity, damage, fibromyalgia, depression and anxiety. However, these associations have not yet been described in Mexican patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). Objective To evaluate the relationship between disease activity, damage, depression and fibromyalgia and HRQOL measured by the LupusQoL-instrument in Mexican patients with SLE. Methods A cross-sectional study was conducted in women fulfilling the 1997 ACR classification criteria for SLE. HRQOL was evaluated using a disease-specific instrument for SLE, the LupusQoL (validated for the Spanish-speaking population). Patients were evaluated clinically to determine the degree of disease activity and damage using the Mexican Systemic Lupus Erythematosus Disease Activity Index (Mex-SLEDAI) and Systemic Lupus International Collaborating Clinics-Damage Index (SLICC), respectively. Fibromyalgia and depression were assessed using the ACR criteria and the CES-D scale, respectively. The relationship between HRQOL and these variables was measured using Spearman’s rank correlation coefficient and linear regression analysis. Results A total of 138 women with SLE, age 40.3±11 years, disease duration 8.8±6.4 years, with disease activity in 51.4%, depression in 50%, damage in 43% and fibromyalgia in 19.6% were included. Poorer HRQOL correlated with depression (r = -0.61; p< 0.005), fibromyalgia (r = -0.42; p< 0.005), disease activity (r = -0.37; p < 0.005) and damage (r = -0.31; p < 0.005). In the multivariate linear regression analysis, damage (β = -3.756, p<0.005), fibromyalgia (β = -0.920, p<0.005), depression (β = -0.911, p<0.005) and disease activity (β = -0.911, p<0.005) were associated with poor HRQOL. Conclusion SLE disease activity, damage, fibromyalgia and depression were associated with poor HRQOL in our sample of Mexican SLE patients.

Abstract
PURPOSE The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effects of applying the continuous care model (CCM) on the knowledge level and health-related quality of life (HRQoL) of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) patients and their perceptions of family awareness about the disease. DESIGN The Continuous Care Model (CCM) was implemented for 3 months on 34 SLE patients, in a pretest-posttest quasiexperimental design. METHODS Two sets of questionnaires were designed for knowledge assessment. HRQoL was assessed by SF-36 questionnaires. Analysis was by paired t test and one-way ANOVA. FINDINGS The continuous care model significantly improved patients' knowledge level and their perceptions of their family members' awareness of their disease. HRQoL status in SLE patients was poorer than the general population in six of eight SF-36 scales (p < .05), except for Bodily Pain and Mental Health. Postintervention scores showed improvement in six SF-36 scales (p < .001), except for Bodily Pain and Social Functioning. CONCLUSIONS Our results underlined the advantages of applying the CCM as a comprehensive method of self-care in SLE. CLINICAL RELEVANCE Despite many improvements in SLE care, the patients' quality of life is still much affected by SLE. Implementation of the CCM could lead to improvement in the knowledge and HRQoL of SLE patients.
