EULAR's Lupus Nephritis Guidelines Emphasize Early Biopsy


 

FROM ANNALS OF THE RHEUMATIC DISEASES

The EULAR guidelines also contain specific recommendations for patients planning pregnancy. In addition, they cover diagnosis and management of pediatric lupus nephritis, which largely follow adult recommendations. The pediatric recommendations are based on evidence in adults, and on nonrandomized evidence in children.

Work on the recommendations was funded by EULAR and the ERA-EDTA. The authors declared no conflicts of interest.
