We found 34 patients within a total lupus cohort of 630 patients. A11 the patients had severe respiratory failure. We identified three different treatment regimens: (a) oral prednisone (1 mg/kg); (b) conventional methylprednisolone (3 g total dose) and (c) massive methylprednisolone ( > 4 g). The overall survival rate was 38.2% and it was correlated with the massive regimen and early treatment (within the first 48 h after the onset of the acute event).
