30
T/F For JSpaDA, higher scores indicate greater disease activity
T
31
Considered the preferable lupus activity tool for use in routine clinical setting because it is concise and easy to complete
SLEDAI
32
Number of items in SLEDAI
24
33
SLEDAI version where rash, alopecia, mucous membrane lesions, and proteinuria are scored only if they represent their first occurrence or a recurrence (or a recent increase for proteinuria)
Original
34
SLEDAI version where items are simply scored when present
SLEDAI-2K
35
Advantage of MEX SLEDAI
avoiding the cost of immunological laboratory tests because it does not include anti–double-stranded DNA antibodies and complement levels
36
Definition of damage in SLE
any persistent nonreversible change in anatomy, physiology, pathology, or function, which may be the result of prior active disease, complications of therapy, or comorbid conditions, not related to active inflammation occurring since onset of SLE, ascertained by clinical assessment and present for at least 6 months;
37
Damage index used for adult SLE
SDI
38
Disadvantages of SDI
1) does not cover all forms of damage that are seen in children or adolescents with SLE, especially growth failure and delayed puberty 2) covers only irreversible damage and, therefore, does not take into account that children have the ability to recover and regenerate to a greater degree than do adults
39
Components of PED-SDI
12 systems/domains included in the original SDI + 2 items devoted to assessment of growth failure and pubertal delay
40
Based on the PRINTO core set of outcome variables for juvenile SLE, a "responder" is defined as
At least 50% improvement from baseline in 2/5 core set measures with no more than 1 of the remaining worsening by more than 30%
41
Damage occurring since diagnosis of systemic lupus erythematosus is ascertained by ___
Clinical assessment
42
Growth failure is defined as
At least two of the following three features: (1) height below the third percentile for age (2) growth velocity over 6 months below the third percentile for age, and (3) crossing at least two percentiles (5%, 10%, 25%, 50%, 75%, 95%) on growth chart
43
Delayed puberty is defined as
A delay in development of secondary sexual characteristics more than 2 SD below the mean for age by Tanner staging
44
Among the criteria for flare of SLE, these are considered to be the most accurate
1) SLEDAI or BILAG 2) Physician global 3) C-reactive protein 4) MD-global 5) PCR 6) ESR
45
SLEDAI scores and interpretation
greater than or equal to 6.4/3.0/0.6 constituted major/moderate/minor flares, respectively
46
BILAG scores and interpretation
Greater than or equal to 7.4/3.7/2.2 delineated major/moderator/minor flares, respectively
47
Definition of ID (inactive disease)/CR (clinical remission) in cSLE that can differentiate from minimally active lupus (MAL)
1) Less than two mild, nonlimiting symptoms (i.e., fatigue, arthralgia, headaches, or myalgia) but not Raynaud phenomenon, chest pain, or objective physical signs of cSLE 2) ANA positivity and ESR elevation can be present 3) CBC, renal function testing, and complement C3 all must be normal 4) Only damage-related laboratory or clinical findings of cSLE can be coexistent with ID
48
Provisional criteria for clinically relevant improvement in children and adolescents with cSLE (ACR) which measures response to therapy
CHILI
49
CHILI score of___had high accuracy for identifying clinically relevant improvement
greater than 54
50
Most widely used method for muscle strength measurement in therapeutic trials
Manual muscle testing (MMT), based on the Medical Research Council (MRC) scale
51
MMT originally included the bilateral assessment of how many muscles
24
52
It has been shown that a subset of these 8 proximal, distal, and axial muscles (the so-called MMT8) tested unilaterally performs similarly to the entire set of 24 muscles and is more time- and cost-efficient
Neck flexors deltoids (shoulder abduction) biceps (forearm flexion) wrist extensors gluteus maximus (hip extension) medius (hip abduction) quadriceps (hip flexion) ankle dorsiflexors
53
The most widely used muscle function instrument is
Childhood Myositis Assessment Scale (CMAS)
54
CMAS evaluates a combination of
muscle strength, muscle function, and endurance
55
How CMAS is done
performing 14 maneuvers and yields a numeric score out of a total of 52
56
CMAS is weighted toward what muscle groups
Lower extremity, proximal, and axial muscle groups
57
Core Sets of Outcome Measures for Juvenile Dermatomyositis
PRINTO Core Set IMACS Core Set 2016 ACR Clinical Response Criteria
58
Items Included in Published Core Sets of Outcome Measures for Juvenile Dermatomyositis in general
1) Physician global 2) Parent global 3) Muscle strength 4) Functional ability 5) Lab assessment 6) HRQoL (PRINTO only) 7) Global disease activity tool (PRINTO and ACR only) 8) Extramuscular disease (IMACS only)
59
PRINTO criteria for clinically inactive JDM: state of inactive disease with or without therapy if
exhibits at least three of the following four criteria: creatine kinase less than or equal to 150 units/L, CMAS score greater than or equal to 48, MMT score greater than or equal to 78, and physician global assessment of disease activity less than or equal to 0.2 cm on a 0- to 10-cm VAS

1) Dermal atrophy 2) Subcutaneous atrophy 3) Dyspigmentation (hypo/hyperpig)
66
Areas tested in the MRSS (17)
Right and Left: Fingers, hands, forearms, upper arms, thighs, legs, feet Face, anterior chest, abdomen,
67
Scoring in MRSS
0 = normal skin, where the examiner appreciates fine wrinkles but no skin thickness is present; 1 = mild skin thickness, where the examiner can easily make skin folds between two fingers and fine wrinkles are acceptable; 2 = moderate skin thickness, with difficulty in making skin folds and no wrinkles; 3 = severe skin thickness, with inability to make skin folds between two examining fingers
68
preliminary disease severity score for juvenile systemic sclerosis (SS)
Juvenile Systemic Sclerosis Severity Score (J4S), includes nine organs/systems (general, vascular, skin, osteoartic- ular, muscle, gastrointestinal, respiratory, cardiac, and renal) and has a score range from 0 to 40
69
