Objective: This study aimed to identify the presence of psychiatric comorbidities as well as investigate the relationship between psychiatric interventions for mental symptoms and mortality in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE).
Method: We retrospectively evaluated the records of 160 inpatients with SLE who required psychiatric consultation for further therapeutic intervention from 2013 to 2020 in a tertiary general hospital. We collected clinical data, including diagnoses, medications, and mortality rate. We compared clinical characteristics among the diagnosis groups and correlations between variables.
Results: A total of 138 (86.3%) patients met the diagnostic criteria for at least one mental disorder, with the most common being delirium (54.4%). The average Systemic Lupus Erythematosus Disease Activity Index 2000 (SLEDAI-2K) score significantly differed among the diagnosis groups (p = 0.003). The mortality rate among patients with delirium was significantly higher than that in the other patient groups (x2 = 12.967, p = 0.024). SLEDAI-2K score was not significantly correlated with mortality (r = 0.123, p = 0.087). Antipsychotics use was associated with mortality (odds ratio 0.053, p = 0.021).
Conclusion: Antipsychotic use may decrease death risk for patients with NPSLE. Early psychiatric consultation is necessary for patients with SLE who have developed or have suspected psychiatric symptoms in order to establish a comprehensive intervention plan.
1. Introduction
Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is an autoimmune disease that often causes multi-organ damage. Neuropsychiatric SLE (NPSLE), which is characterized by the involvement of the central or peripheral nervous system, leads to increased risk of mortality (1); further, it is associated with disabilities, reduced social participation, unemployment, and poor quality of life (2, 3). The estimated prevalence of NPSLE is 14–95% (4–6), with this wide range being attributed to the broad spectrum of presentable psychiatric symptoms. The American College of Rheumatology (ACR) defines 19 NPSLE syndromes, including delirium (acute confusional state), psychosis, mood disorder, and cognitive dysfunction (7).
Psychotropic medications have been considered for the symptomatic treatment of NPSLE (8). The present study aimed to describe the diagnostic spectrum and psychiatric interventions for the mental manifestations of SLE, as well as their correlation with mortality.
2. Methods
We evaluated the case records of inpatients with SLE who required psychiatric consultation for further therapeutic intervention between April 2013 and July 2020. There were 160 case records. All the patients were admitted to the Department of Rheumatology and Clinical Immunology at the Peking Union Medical College Hospital, which is a tertiary general hospital in Beijing. Medical records were retrospectively reviewed for clinical information, including general demographic characteristics, clinical characteristics, laboratory and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) results, and medical and psychiatric medications.
Treating rheumatologists diagnosed each patient with SLE according to the ACR revised criteria for the classification of SLE (9) and performed an evaluation of disease activity using the Systemic Lupus Erythematosus Disease Activity Index 2000 (SLEDAI-2K) (10). The SLEDAI-2K is a validated 24-item scale encompassing clinical and laboratory variables (10). A SLEDAI-2K score < 5 suggests no or very low disease activity, while a score ≥ 15 suggests high disease activity (10).
Consultation-liaison psychiatrists administered standard mental status examinations during the first and follow-up consultation visits to determine the psychiatric diagnoses. Delirium, psychosis, mood disorder, and cognitive dysfunction were diagnosed based on the International Classification of Diseases 10th Revision (ICD-10) (11).
Statistical analyzes were performed using IBM SPSS Statistics 21.0.0.0 (IBM Corp., Armonk, NY, United States). Quantitative variables are described as mean ± standard deviation or median (interquartile range [IQR]) based on the normality of distribution. Categorical variables are described as frequencies (percentages). The Kruskal–Wallis test was used for among-group comparisons of continuous non-normally distributed variables. The Chi-square test or Fisher’s exact test was used for among-group comparisons of categorical variables. The correlation between clinical variables was examined using Spearman’s correlation test. Binary logistic regression analyzes were used to determine factors related to mortality. A two-tailed p value <0.05 was considered statistically significant.
3. Results
The median age of the 160 patients with SLE was 28 (IQR 23–39) years. Most patients (90.6%) were female. The median disease course was 1.5 years (IQR 0.3–6). Moreover, 75.6% of the patients showed multi-organ or -system involvement of SLE. The most commonly affected organ was the kidney (62.5%). The average SLEDAI-2K score was 20 (IQR 12–24). Ten patients (6.2%) died during hospitalization. The average length of hospital stay was 30 days (IQR: 22–43 days).
Table 1 presents the psychiatric diagnoses and clinical characteristics of all 160 patients. A total of 138 (86.3%) patients met the diagnostic criteria for at least one mental disorder, with the most common being delirium (54.4%). Out of the 132 patients who underwent head MRI, abnormal results were found in 85 individuals (64.4%). Among them, 14 had ischemic lesions, 44 had inflammatory lesions, 6 had both ischaemic and inflammatory lesions, and 21 showed other types of lesions. It was observed that there were no significant differences in the head MRI outcomes among patients with various psychiatric diagnoses (as shown in Table 1). Table 2 lists items in the SLEDAI-2K and their frequencies. The most prevalent descriptor was low complement (65.6%), followed by increased DNA binding (52.5%) and proteinuria (45.0%).
Table 1. Psychiatric diagnoses and clinical characteristics.
Table 2. SLEDAI-2K item frequencies of 160 patients.
Patients with mania/hypomania showed the highest proportion of antipsychotic use (92.3%), followed by patients with psychosis (89.5%). Sedatives were used in one-third of the patients, with 53.8% (highest proportion) and 7.7% (lowest proportion) of these patients using them for mania/hypomania and depression, respectively. Four patients with negative symptoms were prescribed antipsychotics. One patient with catatonia received benzodiazepines. Moreover, 17 patients required consultation due to psychosocial stress and were subsequently recommended for psychotherapy.
As shown in Table 1, the mean SLEDAI-2K score differed significantly among the diagnosis groups (test value = 18.045, p = 0.003). However, if item “psychosis” and item “organic brain syndrome” were excluded, there was no significant among-group difference for the remaining diagnoses (test value = 8.392, p = 0.136). Patients with depressive disorder had lower SLEDAI-2K scores than patients with delirium (p = 0.037) and cognitive dysfunction (p = 0.025). Patients with delirium had a significantly higher mortality rate than the other patient groups (χ2 = 12.967, p = 0.024).
All 10 deceased patients were diagnosed with delirium during their hospitalization. Supplementary material S1 shows the multiple factors associated with mortality. The correlation between SLEDAI-2K score and mortality was not statistically significant (r = 0.123, p = 0.087). Logistic regression analysis indicated that the main mortality-related factors were antipsychotic use, cumulative cyclophosphamide dose, proteinuria, pericarditis, and thrombocytopenia (Figure 1).

4. Discussion
We assessed the diagnostic spectrum and psychiatric interventions of the mental manifestations in 160 adult patients with SLE. In our study, most of the patients met the diagnostic criteria for at least one mental disorder, with delirium showing the highest prevalence (54.4%). Antipsychotic use and cumulative cyclophosphamide dose were negatively correlated with mortality.
The reported prevalence rates of mental disorders among patients with SLE range from 14 to 95% (4–6). This wide range can be attributed to differences in the population characteristics and diagnostic instruments. In our study, 86.3% of the patients had at least one mental disorder, which is higher than some previously reported values (12, 13). These differences could be attributed to the study population since most studies investigated general patients with SLE, while we focused on patients who required psychiatric consultation; therefore, mild or asymptomatic cases were probably not included.
Delirium and psychosis are considered relatively uncommon neuropsychiatric manifestations of SLE compared with other common ones such as mood disorder and cognitive dysfunction (5). In our study, delirium was diagnosed in more than half of the patients. Patients with SLE are predisposed to multiple risk factors for delirium given its multi-organ/−system involvement. Our patients had a mean SLEDAI-2K score of 20, which suggests severe disease activity; moreover, 75.6% of the patients had involvement of multiple organs or systems, which may explain the high prevalence of delirium in our study. In our study, the prevalence of cognitive dysfunction was 25%; further, the prevalence of psychosis was 11.9%, which is higher than previously reported values (12, 14, 15). This could also be attributed to participant bias. In clinical settings, it is sometimes difficult to attribute a mood episode solely to SLE (16). We found that disease activity was significantly lower in patients with depression than in patients with delirium and psychosis. We cautiously interpret this result as depression being less organic than the other two disorders. Our findings are consistent with the 2019 European League Against Rheumatism/ACR SLE diagnostic criteria (17), which only include delirium and psychosis as psychiatric manifestations. However, similar to other studies (18, 19), we observed psychiatric symptoms other than those in ACR case definitions for patients with SLE, such as catatonia, that required interventions such as sedative administration. Ultimately, psychiatric symptoms result from abnormal brain function (20–22). Autoimmune inflammation may cause encephalitis, which could be diagnosed based on evidence such as cerebrospinal fluid examinations, electroencephalography, and MRI results. NPSLE, with its vascular and immunological mechanisms that affect the brain, may cause all kinds of psychiatric symptoms that may be seen in patients with primary mental disorders. Due to the limited clinical data available in our retrospective study, we were unable to determine the proportion of patients diagnosed with encephalitis. Future research can expand upon this point to comprehensively illustrate the correlation between brain function and psychiatric symptoms.
The differences between psychiatric diagnoses and SLEDAI-2K descriptors, specifically for delirium and psychosis, were remarkable. These differences may originate from different definitions of the same psychiatric term in the SLEDAI-2K and NPSLE (10, 17). For example, in the SLEDAI-2K, psychosis is defined including hallucinations, incoherence, marked loose associations, and bizarre or disorganized behaviors. In the NPSLE diagnostic definitions, psychosis refers only to hallucinations and delusions with delirium ruled out. Therefore, the frequency of the psychosis descriptor in the SLEDAI-2K should be higher than the diagnosis. The definition of organic brain syndrome in the SLEDAI-2K is the same as delirium in the NPSLE, although in our study, the frequency of delirium items was lower. We presume that this inconsistency was due to the clinical setting. The SLEDAI-2K is usually rated by rheumatologists as soon as a patient is hospitalized earlier than in the psychiatric consultation. It is highly possible that the general condition of some patients deteriorates during the first days of hospitalization; therefore, the number of cases fulfilling the diagnosis of delirium increases after consultation. It is also possible that some psychiatric manifestations are categorized as psychosis symptoms in the first evaluation and regrouped as manifestations of delirium after consultation. This phenomenon strengthens the importance of interdisciplinary collaboration for a more precise diagnoses and evaluations of patients with SLE.
Previous studies have shown that neuroanatomical abnormalities are more prevalent in patients diagnosed with NPSLE (23). MRI has been found to be a sensitive diagnostic tool in detecting ischemic lesions in SLE patients, while inflammatory NPSLE is associated with cognitive dysfunction (24). In a review of the diagnosis and management of NPSLE, the author concluded that vascular lesions are more commonly linked to cognitive dysfunction, while autoimmune inflammatory lesions lead to more diffuse symptoms, such as psychosis and acute confusional state (25). In our current study, we did not observe significant differences in MRI lesions among patients with different diagnoses, which precludes us from drawing firm conclusions about the relevance of specific lesions to any particular diagnosis.
The mortality rate in our study was 6.3%. Although the SLEDAI-2K score was not significantly correlated with mortality, we found that several descriptors in the SLEDAI-2K, including proteinuria, pericarditis, and thrombocytopenia, were related to death. High disease activity and multiple organ/system involvement are associated with mortality in patients with SLE. Ahn et al. (2) reported a three-fold increased mortality risk in patients with NPSLE. Additionally, a large multi-centre Chinese cohort study on hospitalized patients with SLE (26) reported that the mortality rate was 1.22%; further, age at diagnosis, NPSLE, hematological abnormalities, lupus nephritis, and infection were associated with mortality. A single-centre retrospective study of 194 patients with NPSLE reported a mortality rate of 8.2% (27). Patients with elevated serum creatinine levels, hypocomplementemia, and SLEDAI−2K scores ≥15 had shorter survival periods, which suggests that renal insufficiency and high disease activity are predictive of poor prognoses in patients with NPSLE. Pinto et al. (28) reported a 16.4% mortality rate in an Indian cohort of patients with NPSLE; furthermore, NPSLE relapse was associated with death.
Upon diagnosis of SLE, hydroxychloroquine, glucocorticoids, and immunosuppressive agents are considered as the fundamental treatment options (8). High-dose glucocorticoids and intravenous cyclophosphamide remain the main treatment regimens for patients with severe symptoms (29). Among all immunosuppressive interventions, the use of cyclophosphamide was correlated with disease outcome. Antipsychotics and sedatives are usually used for symptomatic treatment; furthermore, they are crucial for attaining improvement in severe cases, especially for agitated patients (8). Impaired consciousness impedes functional recovery, which in turn impedes clinical management (30). In our study, patients with SLE who presented with psychomotor agitation, including patients with psychosis, delirium, and hypomania, were mostly prescribed psychotropic medications. Additionally, antipsychotic use was negatively correlated with mortality, especially in patients with delirium. Since benzodiazepines were not associated with fewer deaths, do antipsychotics help treat the “brain”? This may merit further study.
The main strength of our study was the precise psychiatric diagnosis and appropriate intervention for NPSLE symptoms under a multidisciplinary collaboration. However, this study has several limitations. First, given the retrospective design of the study, certain data were missing; moreover, we could not clarify the causal relationship between correlated factors. Second, there could have been patient selection bias; moreover, this was a single-centre study, which limits the generalizability of our findings. Further large-scale, multi-centre, longitudinal studies are warranted to confirm our findings.
5. Conclusion
Antipsychotic use may decrease death risks for patients with NPSLE. We recommend psychiatric consultation for each patient to establish a proper psychiatric diagnosis and comprehensive intervention plan.
