Abstract
CIDP is an uncommon, but not rare, manifestation of SLE. Certain characteristics including early CIDP diagnosis, involvement of all 4 extremities, hyporeflexia of the upper extremities, and slowed motor nerve conduction velocity of the median nerve in addition to SLE involvement of critical internal organs and the presence of multiple antibodies associated with SLE all appear to predict a good response to IVIg.
