Objective:

To correct errors in the previously published meta-analysis regarding the association between systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) and cognitive impairment or dementia, specifically addressing the inclusion of the Wotton 2017 study.

Approach:
    Key Findings:
    • The odds estimate for studies with fewer than 1000 SLE cases is corrected to OR = 3.182.
    • The odds estimate for studies with 1000 or more SLE cases remains at OR = 1.473.
    • Both odds estimates are statistically significant.
    Interpretation:

    The correction clarifies the statistical outcomes of the subgroup analysis in the context of SLE and cognitive impairment.

    Limitations:
