Diez puntos de ayuda para la clasificación de pacientes con lupus eritematoso sistémico.

In 2019, the American College of Rheumatology (ACR)/European League against Rheumatism (EULAR) proposed new criteria to aid classify a patient with systemic lupus erythematosus. These criteria use a point-based system ranging from 2-10 points. The presence of antinuclear antibody is an entry criterion for classification. Sensitivity and specificity are 93% and 96%, respectively. Non-infectious fever was added as the new criterion. VDRL and LE cell tests and photosensitivity have been removed. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
