4. Follow-up BP trends

During follow up, the prevalence of hypertension increased and at the last visit, 31.3% of patients were diagnosed as having hypertension (n=10). In the last follow-up, stage 2 hypertension was prevalent than stage 1. The median value of Ped-SDI at last follow up was 1.0. Among childhood-onset SLE patients with hypertension, 2 patients had 3 episodes of posterior reversible encephalopathy syndrome. LVH was detected in 5 patients with hypertension and 1 patient without hypertension (Table 6).
