Abstract:

Goal: An autoimmune illness affecting several systems, systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) has a broad spectrum of clinical symptoms. A Latin American population of Amerindian heritage has not been shown to meet the most recent classification standards, EULAR/ACR 2019. This study’s goal is to contrast the sensitivity of the Classification criteria for EULAR/ACR 2019 and SLICC 2012 in a cohort of SLE patients with the aforementioned ancestry.

INTRODUCTION :
An autoimmune condition known as systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is often multisystemic. On the other hand, it occasionally just involves one organ. Women are primarily affected, with a peak onset occurring before the age of of 45 and an incidence that, while it is twice as high among Hispanics, varies from 72.8 to 102 cases per 100,000 persons annually in North America. According to calculations, the prevalence in Colombia is 0.05%, or 91.9/100,000 persons, with a female to male ratio of 7.9:1 and a peak occurrence between the ages of 45 and 49 [1–5]. Any organ or system may be moderately or severely compromised by the clinical appearance, which can vary [6]. In the past, classification standards with a sensitivity and specificity of, say, the 1982 American College of Rheumatology (ACR) 96% of them have been utilized, and they were developed by nine specialists from the American Rheumatism Association (ARA) [7]. Considering the significant variability in cutaneous lupus and the potential for individuals to be categorized as New criteria have to be created for SLE as there were just mucocutaneous symptoms and no renal histopathology [7].
