Incidence of infection in systemic lupus erythematosus

Staples, Parker J., Gerding, Dale N., Decker, John L., Gordon, Robert S.·1974·Arthritis & Rheumatism

Abstract

Twenty‐three patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), 20 with rheumatoid arthritis (RA), and 11 with the nephrotic syndrome (NPS) were selected for study of factors affecting the incidence of infection in these diseases. The overall infection rate (infections per 100 hospital days) in patients with SLE was significantly higher than it was in patients with RA or NPS. Infection rate and the number of disseminated infections were found to increase in lupus patients with increasing doses of corticosteroids and decreasing renal function. Lupus patients with normal renal function on no or low‐dose corticosteroid therapy had an infection rate significantly higher than the infection rate of the control patient groups. This study suggests that the observed high infection rate in SLE cannot be attributed to steroid therapy and renal disease alone.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
