Article Synopsis
- Around 20% of systemic lupus erythematous (SLE) cases are juvenile onset, leading to more severe illness and higher mortality in children and adolescents compared to adults.
- A study assessing adherence to medications in patients aged 12-25 with childhood-onset SLE found that 65% of participants were non-adherent based on various evaluation methods.
- Major barriers to adherence included medication side effects (46%), difficulty remembering doses (33%), and financial constraints (25%), highlighting the need for better support in managing their treatment.
