Study Type: Observational
SUMMARY

Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is a chronic autoimmune disease involving multiple organs and systems. The central nervous system is one of the most commonly involved parts, and the involvement of the nervous system is called neuropsychiatric lupus, which is one of the most common complications of SLE and the main cause of death. Cognitive impairment and emotional disorders are the most common neuropsychiatric symptoms, with a prevalence of up to 80%. Studies have shown that the prevalence of NPSLE is between 37% and 95%. Compared with SLE patients, the mortality rate increases by three times. Early diagnosis and treatment play an important role in improving the quality of life of patients. fMRI has the advantages of non-invasive, in vivo and high repeatability, and can detect the brain function changes of patients early before the structural changes. This study uses fMR to compare the differences in brain function changes between SLE patients and healthy controls, explore the neuroimaging mechanism of brain injury, and provide reference for the early clinical intervene.
