To evaluate if NIHT can characterize CI in persons with SLE and if disease activity contributes to impaired cognition. 

 

Mechanisms driving cognitive impairment (CI) in systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) remain poorly understood, and prior studies conflict regarding the relationship between CI and disease activity. The NIH Toolbox for Assessment of Neurological and Behavioral Function(NIHT) is used in Alzheimer’s disease, yet its value in measuring CI in SLE and relationship between NIHT subdomains and SLE disease activity remains unexplored.
Cross-sectional data were analyzed from adults meeting ≥4 of 11 ACR 1997 SLE criteria without concurrent autoimmune or neurologic diseases, infections, GFR<60, liver enzymes>3x ULN, or sodium imbalance. Cognition was assessed with Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA) and six NIHT measures, including two executive function scales, Dimensional Change Card Sort (DCCS) and Flanker Inhibitory Control of Attention (FICA). SLEDAI-2K≥6 defined moderate-high disease activity; SLEDAI-2K<6 indicated low-moderate or inactive disease. Associations between continuous and categorical variables were assessed via Wilcoxon rank sum and t-tests. 
Our sample included 38 female and 1 male with SLE with a mean(SD) age of 34.16(11.25) years and mean disease duration of 9.67(8.40) years. Patients with moderate-high disease activity scored significantly lower(mean difference [MD])= -6.99, p.029) on FICA compared to those with low-moderate or inactive SLE, and lower(MD= -3.77, p.009) than general population controls within NIHT. Those with high disease activity also scored significantly lower (MD= -2.99, p.0245) on DCCS compared to general population controls. Findings were independent of race/age/education or SLEDAI subcomponent scores. MoCA did not differentiate groups. 
NIHT is a domain-specific, sensitive tool for detecting CI in SLE, outperforming MoCA. Higher SLEDAI correlate with executive function and memory impairments, supporting a role for generalized inflammation in SLE-related CI. We advance the field by exploring the link between SLE disease activity and CI in domains essential for daily functioning.
