We examined the relationship of socioeconomic status to health status, as determined by the Arthritis Impact Measurement Scales, in 78 systemic lupus erythematosus patients who had been entered into a prospective study. After controlling for age, disease duration, and disease severity, a significant relationship between socioeconomic status and outcome was not demonstrated. All study subjects had health insurance for medical services. The results have potential implications for health care policy.
我们对78名纳入前瞻性研究的系统性红斑狼疮患者进行了研究,以关节炎影响测量量表所确定的社会经济地位与健康状况之间的关系。在对年龄、病程和疾病严重程度进行控制后,未发现社会经济地位与结果之间存在显著关系。所有研究对象都拥有医疗服务的健康保险。这些结果对医疗保健政策具有潜在影响。
