Table 1
Study groups and clinical characteristics of the patients. The study groups were the following: NPSLE (Neuropsychiatric Systemic Lupus Erythematosus), SLE (Systemic Lupus Erythematosus), NPnoSLE (Neuropsychiatric syndromes not associated with SLE), and CTRL (healthy controls). The characteristics compared among the groups were the median and IQR of the age (in years), sex (female or male), and the median and IQR of the SLEDAI, SANS, and SAPS scales. SLEDAI = Systemic Lupus Erythematosus Disease Activity Index; SANS = Scale for the Assessment of Negative Symptoms; SAPS = Scale for the Assessment of Positive Symptoms.
