Remote Administration of Physical and Cognitive Performance Assessments in a Predominantly Black Cohort of Persons With Systemic Lupus Erythematosus.

ABSTRACT:

Objective

In a study of physical and cognitive functioning among predominantly Black individuals with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), we compared remotely administered physical and cognitive performance assessments to those collected in person.

Methods

A subset of participants who completed an in-person visit in our parent study from 2021 to 2022 (n = 30) were recruited to complete a second, remote visit within 28 days. Physical performance (measured by a modified Short Physical Performance Battery [SPPB]; range 0-12; subscale ranges 0-4; higher = better performance) and cognitive performance (episodic and working memory adjusted t-scores, measured using NIH Toolbox) were measured at both visits. Mean scores were compared using paired t-tests; intraclass correlation coef
