Frequently asked questions

How do I calculate the JADAS in juvenile idiopathic arthritis?

The JADAS calculator combines physician and patient global assessment, the number of active joints (10, 27 or 71 joints) and the normalized ESR or CRP, and classifies the result into activity levels.

Is there a JADAS without a laboratory value?

Yes, the cJADAS (clinical JADAS) dispenses with the laboratory value and uses the physician and patient global assessments plus active joints. The calculator gives cut-offs for cJADAS10 according to ACR 2021.

How do I record lupus activity with the SLEDAI-2K?

The SLEDAI-2K calculator comprises 24 weighted descriptors (weights 8, 4, 2 and 1) of lupus activity over the last 10 days according to Gladman 2002. The sum of the weighted descriptors gives the SLEDAI-2K score.
