Abstract:BackgroundCognitive dysfunction (CD) is highly prevalent in systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), yet the underlying mechanisms are poorly understood. Neuroimaging utilising advanced MRI metrics may yield mechanistic insights. We conducted a systematic review of neuroimaging studies to investigate the relationship between structural and diffusion MRI metrics and CD in SLE.MethodsWe systematically searched several databases between January 2000 and October 2023 according to Preferred Reporting Items for Systemati… Show more
