NCT00582465

Brief Summary

This is a study to determine if people with Lupus have weak bones. Test which is a better method for detecting bone changes:

  • Dual energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA)
  • Single energy quantitative computed tomography (SEQCT) Evaluate whether weak bones are associated with things like medications or amount of fat and muscle.

Study Population

Children and adolescents with SLE

You may qualify if:

  • Systemic Lupus Erythematosus subjects 4/11 of the American College of Rheumatology criteria for SLE (23), age less than 22 years.

You may not qualify if:

  • Neonatal SLE or drug-induced Systemic Lupus Erythematosus
  • Subjects who are pregnant, and subjects weighing over 300 pounds, as the densitometry techniques are not reliable above this weight.
  • Subjects receiving calcium or vitamin D supplementation will not be excluded but this information will be recorded and evaluated further in the dietary/nutritional assessment.
