Baseline (BL) renal function, as estimated by calculation of the MDRD (Modification of Diet in Renal Disease) equation, over time. Renal MDRD is an equation (calculation) used to estimate Glomerular Filtration Rate (GFR) in participants with impaired renal function based on serum creatinine, age, race, and gender. GFR (mL/min/1.73 m\^2) = 175 \* (Scr)\^-1.154 \* (Age)\^-0.203 \* (0.742 if female) \* (1.212 if African American) (conventional units). mL, milliliters; min, minute; m\^2, meters squared; Scr, serum creatinine.

SLICC/ACR score or damage index is a measure of cumulative damage due to Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE). Damage is defined as nonreversible change (not related to active inflammation) occurring since onset of lupus, ascertained by clinical assessment and present for at least 6 months. A score of 0=no damage, early damage is defined as =1. The total maximum score is 48, and increasing score indicates increasing disease severity.

The SF-36 is a validated instrument measuring health-related quality of life across multiple disease states. It has 36 questions with 8 subscale scores and 2 summary scores (1) physical component summary=physical functioning, role-physical, bodily pain, and general health; (2) mental component summary=vitality, social functioning, role-emotional, and mental health. There is no total overall score; scoring is done for both subscores and summary scores. For subscores and summary scores, 0 =worst score (or quality of life) and 100=best score.

Query!
Assessment method [15]
0

A visual analogue scale (VAS) is a psychometric response scale for measurement of subjective characteristics or attitudes that cannot be directly measured. The VAS for Fatigue (VAS-F) consists of a 100 mm line, with 0 (No Fatigue) on 1 end and 100 (Extreme Fatigue) on the other end, which a participant marks to indicate how much fatigue he or she feels. The marked point in mm is converted into a numeric value from 0 to 100, where 0=no fatigue and 100=maximum fatigue. Increasing numbers=increasing fatigue.

A sample was considered positive if it had a titer of 10 or greater and if immunodepletion was observed with abatacept with or without CTLA4-T.

Mean Change From Baseline in SLICC/ACR Damage Index

Assessment method [34]

0
SLICC=Systemic Lupus International Collaborating Clinics; ACR=American College of Rheumatology. The SLICC/ACR Damage Index measures organ damage (nonreversible change, unrelated to active inflammation) occurring since onset of lupus, ascertained by clinical assessment and present for at least 6 months unless otherwise stated. The index assesses 47 items in 12 systems: Ocular, Neuropsychiatric, Renal, Pulmonary, Cardiovascular, Gastrointestinal, Peripheral Vascular, Musculoskeletal, Skin, Premature Gonadal Failure, Diabetes, Malignancy. Scores range from 0 to 2, and the same lesion cannot be scored twice. If damage is noted for a particular item, it is scored 1. No damage is scored 0. Some items may score 2 points if they occur more than once, so that the maximum possible score is 47. Scores can only increase with time, but scores rarely reach over 12. It is usually completed (or updated) yearly.
