Anti–<i>N</i>‐methyl‐<scp>D</scp>‐aspartate receptor antibodies, cognitive dysfunction, and depression in systemic lupus erythematosus

Abstract

Serum anti-NR2 antibodies are associated with depressive mood but not with cognitive dysfunction in SLE at a given time point. Larger longitudinal studies are needed to address the possible association between anti-NR2 antibodies and depression in SLE.
