High dose methylprednisolone therapy for the treatment of severe systemic lupus erythematosus
Abstract
The pharmacological armamentarium for the treatment of SLE is expanding and a number of novel therapies are currently under investigation. In spite of this, steroid therapy remains the cornerstone of treatment and intravenous methylprednisolone (IVMP) is still widely used in clinical practice. There is however surprisingly little evidence on which to define its precise role. The objective of this review was to consider the published evidence relating to the use of IVMP in SLE patients and also to identify open questions that still need to be answered with regard to its use. In acute flares, IVMP induces rapid suppression of acute inflammation. There is not however a strong evidence base to support the use of high doses compared to low IVMP doses or oral prednisolone. In maintenance regimes, secondary analyses suggest that IVMP may confer additional long-term renal survival over oral steroids as part of a cyclophosphamide regime. Therefore, in addition to the evaluation of novel therapies for SLE, better evidence to define the precise role of IVMP in SLE is still required. ( Lupus (2007) 16, 387—393)

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.
