Depressive and anxiety symptom prevalence in childhood-onset systemic lupus erythematosus: A systematic review
Bibliographic record
Abstract
BACKGROUND: Depressive and anxiety symptoms are common in children and youth and may impact outcomes for individuals with childhood-onset systemic lupus erythematosus. Research into the prevalence of depressive and anxiety symptoms and childhood-onset systemic lupus erythematosus comorbidity has reported conflicting results. OBJECTIVE: To synthesize current knowledge regarding the prevalence of depressive and anxiety symptoms in childhood-onset systemic lupus erythematosus. METHODS: Studies were identified through a comprehensive search of MEDLINE, EMBASE, PsychINFO, LILACS and Web of Science (from database inception to July 2018) using MESH headings and keywords for 'lupus erythematosus', and 'depression' or 'anxiety'. Included studies measured depressive and/or anxiety symptoms prospectively among children and youth aged 8 to 21 years with a diagnosis of childhood-onset systemic lupus erythematosus. Neuropsychiatric systemic lupus erythematosus was included. Studies without use of validated screening tools for major depressive disorder or anxiety disorders were excluded, as were studies where diagnosis was by retrospective analysis of patient charts. Data were extracted by two independent coders and where discrepancies occurred, agreement was reached by consensus. RESULTS: In total, 70 studies met the criteria for full text review and of these, 14 were included in the final analysis. The majority (70%) of studies were of cross-sectional design, with sample sizes ranging from 20 to 100 (mean = 48) participants. The mean age of participants was 15.9 years and participants were predominantly female. Prevalence rates for depressive symptoms ranged from 6.7% to 59%. Anxiety symptom prevalence was 34% to 37%. All studies employed self-report instruments to assess depressive and anxiety symptoms; none of the studies utilized a semi-structured diagnostic interview to make psychiatric diagnoses. Significant heterogeneity precluded meta-analysis of the data. CONCLUSIONS: Depressive and anxiety symptoms may be common comorbidities of childhood-onset systemic lupus erythematosus; however, current research is limited by a paucity of studies, small sample sizes and an inability to confirm psychiatric diagnoses. Future research addressing these limitations is needed.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
