REVIEW
Francesco Reggiani, Vincenzo L'Imperio, Marta Calatroni, Fabio Pagni, Renato Alberto Sinico
Anti-glomerular basement membrane (anti-GBM) disease is a rare life-threatening small vessel vasculitis that typically affects the capillaries of kidneys and lungs, with most of patients developing rapidly progressive crescentic glomerulonephritis, and 40%-60% concomitant alveolar haemorrhage. It is caused by the deposition in alveolar and glomerular basement membrane of circulating autoantibodies directed against antigens intrinsic to the basement membrane. The exact mechanism that induces the formation of autoantibodies is unknown, but probably environmental factors, infections or direct damage to kidneys and lungs may trigger the autoimmune response in genetically susceptible individuals...

OBJECTIVES: Bone erosion in rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is partly caused by excessive activation of osteoclasts. Osteoclasts can be derived from RA synovium and their differentiation can be inhibited by osteoprotegerin (OPG), a decoy receptor of the osteoclastogenesis-promoting cytokine receptor activator of nuclear factor κB ligand (RANKL). Fibroblast-like synoviocytes (FLSs) are the main stromal cells in the synovium that can secret OPG. The OPG secretion of FLSs can be modulated by various cytokines...

OBJECTIVES: Although tofacitinib has been confirmed to have good efficacy and safety in the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis (RA), the relevant mechanism at the whole transcriptome level has not yet been revealed. In this study, peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) from patients with active RA before and after tofacitinib treatment were analysed using whole transcriptome sequencing technology. METHODS: Fourteen patients with active RA were selected to detect the alterations of mRNAs, lncRNAs, circRNAs, and miRNAs in PBMCs before and after tofacitinib treatment using whole transcriptome sequencing...

OBJECTIVES: Janus kinase inhibitors and biologics (JAKi/biologics) are cornerstone treatments for rheumatoid arthritis (RA). We evaluated the risks of cancers and cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) in patients with seropositive RA (SPRA) treated with JAKi/biologics. METHODS: Patients with new-onset SPRA during 2010-2020 in the national healthcare database were identified. Events of overall and site-specific cancers, as well as CVD outcomes, including deep vein thrombosis, pulmonary embolism, and composite cardiovascular events, were investigated...

OBJECTIVES: Although management of vasculitis has evolved over the last decades, glucocorticoids (GC) have remained the cornerstone of treatment. The side effects (SE) of GC are well known by the clinicians; their importance for patients with vasculitis has not been investigated as extensively as in other rheumatological conditions. METHODS: An online questionnaire surveyed between April 29th. to July 31st, 2022 with Vasculitis Foundation Canada about the patient experience and SE of prednisone...

OBJECTIVES: This study investigated whether soluble Tyro-3 (sTyro-3), sAxl, and sMer could reflect the current activity in patients with microscopic polyangiitis (MPA) and granulomatosis with polyangiitis (GPA). METHODS: This study retrospectively reviewed the medical records of 76 patients with MPA and GPA, and measure the serum concentrations of sTyro-3, sAxl, and sMer using the stored serum at AAV diagnosis. Antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibody (ANCA)-associated vasculitis (AAV)-specific indices included Birmingham vasculitis activity index (BVAS), five-factor score, the short-form 36-item health survey, and vasculitis damage index...

OBJECTIVES: To examine the influence of contextual factors upon the evaluation of skin thickness and stiffness by ultrasound and to assess the reliability of these parameters. METHODS: Ultrasound dermal thickness (by B-mode, 18MHz) and skin stiffness (by shear-wave elastography, 9MHz) were assessed in persons with systemic sclerosis (SSc) and in healthy controls. The influence of contextual factors upon repeated measures was evaluated: (i) room temperature (16-17ºC vs...

OBJECTIVES: To investigate the clinical manifestations, immunological characteristics, circulating lymphocyte subsets and risk factors of anticentromere antibody (ACA) positive patients with primary Sjögren's syndrome (pSS). METHODS: Data of 333 patients with newly diagnosed pSS were collected and analysed retrospectively. The demographic features, glandular dysfunction, extraglandular manifestations, laboratory data, peripheral blood lymphocyte profiles and serum cytokines were compared between ACA-positive and ACA-negative pSS patients...

OBJECTIVES: Reduced work productivity (WP), measured by work productivity loss (WPL) and work disability (WD), is common in patients with inflammatory arthritis (IA) and osteoarthritis (OA) but is not well characterised. We aimed to assess if there were any improvements in WP (WPL and WD) from diagnosis (T1) to six months later (T2) and to explore associations between WP at T2 and health status at T1 among these patients. METHODS: Patients were surveyed for work characteristics, work ability, WP and health status including physical functioning and vitality at T1 and T2...

OBJECTIVES: To compare plasma levels of 92 cardiovascular- and inflammation-related proteins (CIRPs) and to analyse for associations with anti-cyclic citrullinated peptide (anti-CCP) status and disease activity in early and treatment-naive rheumatoid arthritis (RA). METHODS: Olink CVD-III-panel was used to measure 92 CIRP plasma levels in 180 early, treatment-naive, and highly inflamed RA patients from the OPERA trial. CIRP plasma levels as well as correlation between CIRP plasma levels and RA disease activity were compared between anti-CCP groups...

Recent studies have shown that people who are immunocompromised may inadvertently play a role in spurring the mutations of the virus that create new variants. This is because some immunocompromised individuals remain at risk of getting COVID-19 despite vaccination, experience more severe disease, are susceptible to being chronically infected and remain contagious for longer if they become infected and considering that immunocompromised individuals represent approximately 2% of the overall population, this aspect should be carefully considered...
