Abstract

The associations between diffuse NPSLE and anti-C1q, C3/AP50 and focal NPSLE and C4 may be explained by disease activity and the presence of aPL, respectively. The role of complement activation and complement components in lupus psychosis and cognitive dysfunction merits further research.
