Abstract
A significant number of patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (between 20% and 60% according to different reported series) develop lupus nephritis in the course of its evolution, which directly influences their quality of life and vital prognosis. In recent years, the greater knowledge about the pathogenesis of systemic lupus and lupus nephritis has allowed relevant advances in the diagnostic approach and treatment of these patients, achieving the development of drugs specifically aimed at blocking key pathogenic pathways of the disease. Encouragingly, these immunomodulatory agents have shown in well-powered, randomized clinical trials good clinical efficacy in the medium-term, defined as proteinuria remission and preservation of kidney function, with an acceptable safety profile and good patient tolerability. All this has made it possible to reduce the use of corticosteroids and other potentially more toxic therapies, as well as to increase the use of combined therapies. The present consensus document carried out by the Glomerular Diseases Working Group of the Spanish Society of Nephrology (GLOSEN), collects in a practical and summarized, but rigorous way, the best currently available evidence about the diagnosis, treatment, and follow-up of lupus nephritis patients, including cases of special situations, with the main objective of providing updated information and well-founded clinical recommendations to treating physicians, to improve the diagnostic and therapeutic approach to our patients.

[PMID: 36192191 DOI: 10.1016/j.therap.2022.09.004] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/30/2022] [Revised: 08/01/2022] [Accepted: 09/09/2022] [Indexed: 11/30/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Drug-related problems (DRPs) are one of the leading causes of hospital readmissions. Children with chronic diseases are more likely to experience DRPs than adults. The burden and characteristics of drug-related readmissions at and after hospital discharge in children remain unclear. OBJECTIVE We aimed to summarize the impact of DRPs at and after hospital discharge on the risk of readmissions in children with chronic diseases. METHODS We conducted a systematic review searching PubMed from inception until January 2022. Study selection criteria were studies assessing the impact of different factors at discharge and after discharge on the risk of hospital readmissions in children with chronic diseases, reporting an assessment of DRPs. DRP could be the only risk factor assessed or one among others. Included studies were assessed with the Risk of Bias in Non-Randomized Studies - of Exposure (ROBINS-E) tool. We summarized the qualitative impact of the reported DRPs on hospital readmission as conclusive (significant association) or inconclusive. RESULTS Of the 4734 studies initially identified, 13 met inclusion criteria. Eleven studies were retrospective, using electronic health records. The studies assessed the impact of DRPs at or after discharge according to the type of medication (in 6 studies), number of medication (in 5 studies) and medication nonadherence (in 2 studies). From the 44 reported associations between DRPs and the risk of readmission 26 (59% [95% CI, 43%-73%]) were conclusive, of which 81% increased the risk and 19% decreased the risk, and 17 (39% [95% CI, 24%-55%]) were inconclusive. CONCLUSION The impact of DRPs on hospital readmissions in children with chronic diseases displayed conflicting results, estimated associations having potentially a serious risk of bias. We need more evidence with a lower risk of bias.
