Cross-sectional study of the effects of self-efficacy on fatigue and pain interference in black women with systemic lupus erythematosus: the role of depression, age and education

Abstract: ObjectiveWhile fatigue and pain are pervasive symptoms in SLE, self-efficacy can mitigate their intensity and impact on patients’ daily activity. We examined the relationships of these domains and their interactions with demographics and depression in black women with SLE.MethodsThis is a cross-sectional analysis of data collected among 699 black women with SLE. We used validated, self-reported measures of fatigue, pain interference, symptom self-efficacy, treatment self-efficacy and depression. Linear regress… Show more

“…The evidence summary for this is that physical activity can improve fatigue, depression, and physical fitness and cardiovascular health among patients with SLE, 39 and (2) if a patient has SLE, then symptoms of depression should be assessed or screened at least once during the measurement year using the ACR-preferred assessment tool (ie, the Patient Health Questionnaire-8 [PHQ-8]) or other tools deemed acceptable by the ACR. The evidence summary for this is that depression and anxiety correlate with higher pain, fatigue, and symptom scores and lower medication adherence in patients with SLE; 40 treatment of depression and anxiety improves quality of life. [41][42][43] Although the evidence summary includes both anxiety and depression, anxiety was dropped from the quality measure.…”

“…Previous studies have investigated the relationships between pain symptoms and self-efficacy on mood and function. Drenkard et al study found links between pain symptom self-efficacy, pain interference, and depression in patients with systemic lupus 21 . Similar to our findings, age was associated with these relationships, modifying the effect of self-efficacy on pain interference.…”

“…6 16-18 In a cross-sectional analysis of the Georgia Lupus Registry, which included 699 patients, symptoms selfefficacy was associated with lower fatigue and pain interference, but treatment self-efficacy did not remain associated in the multivariable model. 19 In a longitudinal Italian study, which included 162 patients with SLE, a better self-efficacy predicted a better HRQoL measured with the lupus PRO (LupusPRO). 20 However, these authors used the self-efficacy for managing chronic disease six-items which is a global scale while we have used six domains for self-efficacy; furthermore, they used the global score of the LupusPRO whereas we used the main components and all domains of the SF-36.…”
