No clear differences were identified in the use of the SLE-DAS over the SLEDAI-2K in assessing PROs in patients with SLE. The classification of disease activity based on the SLE-DAS was validated against several PROs. SLE-DAS and its categories of disease activity effectively explain some of the PROs.
