The pooled weighted SLE-ILDs prevalence was 11.0% (9.0% to 13.0%), with substantial heterogeneity (I\u00b2=99.9%), and 18% when identifying SLE-ILDs with chest high-resolution CT (HRCT) scans. Clinical observational studies reported a higher prevalence of 25.0% (19.0% to 31.0%) compared with register-based studies 7.0% (5.0% to 8.0%). The incidence analysis was based on three registry-based studies and estimated an incidence of 4.9 per 1000 person-years (\u22120.5 to 10.3) with substantial heterogeneity (I\u00b2 = 99.8%).<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>ILDs appear to be a prevalent manifestation in SLE with a pooled prevalence estimate of 11.0%, although this estimate should be interpreted with caution due to substantial heterogeneity across studies. HRCT-based studies reported a higher prevalence (18.0%), suggesting that diagnostic modality influences prevalence estimates. The incidence estimate (4.9 per 1000 person-years) should be interpreted as exploratory because it was based on only three registry-based studies. Overall, the findings suggest that ILD may be more common in SLE than previously assumed, highlighting the importance of awareness of pulmonary manifestations. We found the prevalence to be higher in clinical observational studies than register-based studies.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n
