Background:Systemic Lupus erythematosus and antiphospholipid disease are very common autoimmune diseases in women at reproductive age.Objectives:Evaluate the neuro-developmental outcome in children born to mothers with SLE or APS and to assess and characterize memory impairment in children’s born to mother with systemic lupus erythematosus or APS using children’s memory scale and the relation between tetrahydrobiopterin concentration range of children with developmental and neurological disorders.Methods:Women attending rheumatology clinics University of Asyut, SLE patients were eligible if they met the American College of Rheumatology (ACR) criteria for SLE and APL prior to pregnancy, and had at least one live birth following SLE diagnosis. Maternal history Data collected using a structured format that included medical and obstetric history. A detailed history of medication exposures and the Systemic Lupus Erythematosus Disease Activity Index (SLEDAI) during pregnancy was obtained. Offspring history Medical and developmental histories of the offspring including antenatal, delivery, prenatal and pediatric histories, as child’s cognitive, physical or social maturity compared with established age-appropriate norms. Speech or hearing delays, diagnosis of attention- deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), or any special educational needs (eg, occupational or speech therapy, behavioral counseling) was recorded. Assessment and characterization of memory impairment using children’s memory scale by neurologists. Tetrahydrobiopterin was measured by ELISA compared to children born to control healthy subjects of the same age and sex.Results:Data on 38 mothers and 60 offspring were analysed: ADHD was reported for 15 of 60 (25%) offspring. Recent memory delay was detected in 93% (14/15) Speech delay 40% (6/15). Maternal APS history was significantly associated with increased use special educational need among offsprings, including after adjustment for lupus anticoagulant (LA) positivity (39.4% for delays age >2 years; p<0.05). Anticardiolipin and anti-BETA2GP1 were not detected to be associated with delays. Recent memory delay was associated with increased Tetrahydrobiopterin level (P=0.01).Conclusion:The prevalence of neurodevelopmental abnormalities in children born to mothers with SLE or APS seems to be higher than normal population and more educational attention is important in these children, and need long-term follow-up.Disclosure of Interests:None declared
