Abstract
OBJECTIVES: To determine the prevalence of and risk factors for avascular necrosis (AVN) in systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). METHODS: MEDLINE, CINAHL, Web of Science, EMBASE and Cochrane Library were searched from inception to July, 2015 and a random effects model was used to combine frequencies; study quality was assessed using STROBE. RESULTS: 2,041 citations identified 62 articles. Many results had high heterogeneity. The prevalence of symptomatic AVN was 9% (range 0.8%-33%) in SLE and 29% for asymptomatic AVN; femoral head was the most common location (8.0%). High-dose corticosteroids (CS) any CS use, maximum and cumulative dose, pulse therapy, and CS side-effects (hypertension, Cushings, but not diabetes mellitus or hyperlipidaemia) were associated with AVN, as was active SLE (cutaneous vasculitis, renal and neuropsychiatric manifestations, serositis, cytopenias) and Sjögren's, Raynaud's phenomenon, arthritis, cyclophosphamide (but not azathioprine mycophenolate mofetil, or methotrexate) and more damage (excluding musculoskeletal system). Antimalarial drugs were not protective. Rashes and oral ulcers were not associated with AVN. Mean daily dose of CS and duration of CS use had no impact on AVN occurence. Autoantibodies and other immunological markers did not predispose to AVN, except IgM anticardiolipin antibodies which doubled the risk. African Americans experienced more AVN (OR 1.8, p=0.04). CONCLUSIONS: AVN may occur in 1/3 of patients with SLE and 9% with symptoms. Features of active organ SLE (CNS, renal, cutaneous vasculitis, serositis, cytopenias) are associated with AVN as are CS, especially early in disease and at high doses. Those with early CS side-effects seem to have the highest risk of AVN.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model 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 it
