Mental component summary (MCS) scores (mean ± SD) at enrollment in patients with NP events assigned to groups with diffuse and focal NP disease, diffuse NP disease only and focal NP disease only. Regardless of attribution (upper panel), all patients with diffuse/focal and diffuse only events had lower MCS scores compared to patients with focal NP events only (p = 0.002). The findings were similar when the analysis was restricted to patients with NP events attributed to SLE (lower panel) using either attribution model A (p = 0.012) or model B (p = 0.001).
