Nationwide prevalence and mortality rates in systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) were estimated using a computer file of all hospital discharge records and cause of death statistics from 1972 to 1978. Age-specific and sex-specific prevalence rates obtained from 1976 to 1978 and mortality rates from 1972 to 1978. In December 1978 the prevalence of SLE was 28:100 000. The overall mortality rate was 4.7 per million person-years in 1972-78. Active lupus nephritis, vascular events and infections were the most frequent causes of death in SLE patients.
利用1972年至1978年所有医院出院记录和死亡原因统计的计算机文件，估算了全国系统性红斑狼疮（SLE）的患病率和死亡率。获取了1976年至1978年的年龄和性别特异性患病率以及1972年至1978年的死亡率。1978年12月，SLE的患病率为28:100 000。1972 - 1978年的总死亡率为每百万人年4.7例。活动性狼疮性肾炎、血管事件和感染是SLE患者最常见的死亡原因。
