Summary

The trial is designed to evaluate prevalence of fragility fracture, their impact on quality of life of SLE patients and disease or treatment variables such as steroids dosage or use of specific drugs like hydroxychloroquine, DMARDs or belimumab. Patients will perform DXA evaluation, blood tests and PROs questionnaires. Moreover, the investigators want to correlate those variables to bone turnover markers and bone metabolism modulators. A secondary aim is also to assess the fracture risk of those patients as described by FRAX and DEFRA tools.
