All subjects underwent history taking, clinical examination, assessment of disease activity based on the SLE disease activity index (SLEDAI), laboratory investigations, and tests for autoantibodies, namely ANA, anti-dsDNA, and anti-ENA antibodies, including anti-Ro (SSA), anti-La (SSB), anti-Smith (Sm), and anti-U1-ribonucleoprotein (U1-RNP).Results: The most common clinical features were polyarthralgia (71%), haematological manifestations (65%), malar rash (54%), and nephritis (51%), respectively. All patients had positive ANA (100%), while anti-dsDNA frequency was 83%. The most common anti-ENA antibodies were anti-RNP (41%), anti-Sm (31%), anti-SSA (27%), and anti-SSB (20%), respectively. Anti-RNP had a clinical association with oral ulcer, Raynaud’ phenomena, haematological, neuropsychiatric and thromboembolic manifestations. Meanwhile, anti-Sm had a significant association with serositis, mucocutaneous, constitutional, and neuropsychiatric manifestations. Anti-SSA was associated with mucocutaneous, musculoskeletal, Raynaud’ phenomena, renal, haematological and cardiac manifestations, while anti-SSB was significantly associated with malar rash, serositis, thromboembolic, musculoskeletal, and neuropsychiatric manifestations. Concerning SLEADI score, anti-dsDNA antibody was significantly associated with moderate disease activity score (p=0.032) while anti-SSA significantly associated with high disease activity (p=0.045). Both anti-SSB and anti-Sm were significantly associated with both moderate and high disease activities, meanwhile anti-U1-RNP was associated with moderate disease activity (p=0.014).Conclusion: Anti-dsDNA and anti-ENAs antibodies were frequently found in JSLE patients (83%, 63%), respectively. They were significantly associated with variable clinical manifestations and could be used as predictors for assessment of disease activity.Keywords: juvenile systemic lupus erythematosus, clinical manifestations, anti-ENA, disease activity scoreAbd El Monem Teama MAdham El-Mohamdy MAbdellah Abdullah Mahmoud FMohammed Badr FDove Medical Pressarticlejuvenile systemic lupus erythematosusclinical manifestationsantibodies to extractable nuclear antigens (anti-ena)disease activity score.Diseases of the musculoskeletal systemRC925-935ENOpen Access Rheumatology: Research and Reviews, Vol Volume 13, Pp 201-212 (2021)
