Personalization is very important. Before starting treatment for SLE patients, the disease activity of SLE patients must be evaluated, such as antinuclear antibodies, anti-DNA antibodies and hypocomplementemia, and the degree of organ damage, such as heart, kidney, lung lesions, skin and serositis, etc., and a correct evaluation must be made before treatment is started.
