A previous increase in anti-dsDNA levels occurred before SLE flares, as measured by the M-SLEDAI and M-LAI only. However, during lupus flares, including the subset of renal flares, anti-dsDNA levels frequently decreased. We hypothesize that this decrease in anti-dsDNA represents deposition in tissue at the time of flare.
