Abstract Adults with sleep problems are at higher risk for onset of musculoskeletal pain, but the evidence is less clear for children. This prospective cohort study investigated whether children with sleep problems are at higher risk for onset of musculoskeletal pain and explored whether sex is a modifier of this association. In a prospective cohort study of Australian schoolchildren (n = 1239, mean age 9 years), the associations between sleep problems at baseline and new onset of both musculoskeletal pain and persistent musculoskeletal pain (pain lasting > 3 months) 1 year later were investigated using logistic regression. The potential modifying effect of sex was also assessed. One-year incidence proportion for musculoskeletal pain onset is 43% and 7% for persistent musculoskeletal pain. Sleep problems were associated with musculoskeletal pain onset and persistent musculoskeletal pain onset in boys, odds ratio 2.80 (95% CI 1.39, 5.62) and OR 3.70 (1.30, 10.54), respectively, but not girls OR 0.58 (0.28, 1.19) and OR 1.43 (0.41, 4.95), respectively. Conclusions: Rates of musculoskeletal pain are high in children. Boys with sleep problems are at greater risk of onset of musculoskeletal pain, but girls do not appear to have higher risk. Consideration of sleep health may help prevent persistent musculoskeletal pain in children. What is Known:• Sleep problems are associated with the onset of musculoskeletal pain in adults.• It is not clear if the association between sleep problems and the onset of musculoskeletal pain is present also in children and if sex plays a role in this association. What is New:• This is the first large population-based study that has prospectively investigated the relationship between sleep problems and onset of musculoskeletal pain in school-aged children.• Children, especially boys with sleep problems, were at increased risk for the development of persistent musculoskeletal pain.

Background:We have previously reported that the presence of musculoskeletal pain in psoriasis patients is associated with a higher risk of developing psoriatic arthritis (PsA) (1). Furthermore, a subset of psoriasis patients shows evidence for structural entheseal lesions (SEL) in their hand joints (2), sometimes also referred as “Deep Koebner Phenomenon”, which are highly specific for psoriatic disease and virtually absent in healthy controls, rheumatoid arthritis and hand osteoarthritis patients (2-4). However, it remains unclear whether SEL alone or in combination with musculoskeletal pain are associated with the development of PsA.Objectives:To test whether the presence of SEL in psoriasis patients increases the risk for progression to PsA and how this is related to the presence of musculoskeletal pain.Methods:Psoriasis patients without evidence of PsA were enrolled in a prospective cohort study between 2011 and 2018. All patients underwent baseline assessment of SEL in their 2ndand 3rdMCP joints by high-resolution peripheral quantitative computed tomography (HR-pQCT). The risk of PsA development associated with SEL and arthralgia was explored using survival analyses and multivariable Cox regression models.Results:114 psoriasis patients (72 men/42 women) with a mean (SD) follow-up duration of 28.2 (17.7) months were included, 24 of whom developed PsA (9.7 /100 patient-years, 95%CI 6.2 to 14.5) during the observation period. Patients with SEL (N=41) were at higher risk of developing PsA compared to patients without such lesions (21.4/100 patient-years, 95%CI 12.5 to 34.3, HR 5.10, 95%CI 1.53 to 16.99, p=0.008) (Kaplan Meier plot A). Furthermore, while patients without arthralgia and without SEL had a very low progression rate to PsA (1/29; 3.4%), patients with arthralgia but no SEL showed higher progression (5/33; 15.2%), which was in line with previous observations (1) (Kaplan Meier plot B). Presence of SEL further enhanced the risk for progression to PsA both in the absence (6/16; 37.5%) and presence (6/14; 42.8%) of arthralgia with the highest progression rate in those subjects with both arthralgia and SEL (p<0.001 by log rank test for trend) (Kaplan Meier plot B).Conclusion:Presence of SEL is associated with an increased risk of developing PsA in patients with psoriasis. If used together with pain, SEL allow defining subsets of psoriasis patients with very low and very high risk to develop PsA.References:[1]Faustini F et al.

Objective: To assess the association between gestational age at delivery and postpartum severe acute maternal morbidity (SAMM) in twin pregnancies. Design: Population-based, national, prospective, cohort study Setting: From 02/2014 to 03/2015 in France Population: Women with twin pregnancies who gave birth after 32 weeks of gestation. We excluded women with fetal death or medical termination of either twin, with antepartum SAMM, with antepartum conditions responsible for postpartum SAMM. Methods: Gestational age at delivery was studied as the number of completed weeks of gestation. We assessed the association between gestational age at delivery and postpartum SAMM by using multivariable multilevel modified Poisson regression modelling. Main Outcome Measures: Composite criteria of postpartum severe acute maternal morbidity Results: Among the 7,713 women included, 410 (5.3%) developed postpartum SAMM, mainly (88.5%) postpartum haemorrhage. Compared with the reference category of 37 weeks, the risk of postpartum SAMM was significantly lower for all categories of earlier gestational age at delivery (from aRR=0.34, 95% CI 0.17-0.68 at 32 weeks to aRR=0.71, 95% CI 0.54-0.94 at 36 weeks), and did not differ for later categories. Conclusion: In twin pregnancies, compared with delivery at 37 weeks, delivery at earlier gestational ages is associated with a lower risk of postpartum SAMM. Continuing pregnancy beyond 37 weeks is not associated with an increased risk of postpartum SAMM. Funding: Supported by a grant from the French Ministry of Health (Programme Hospitalier de Recherche Clinique, AOM2012) and a grant from Université Toulouse III. Keywords: severe acute maternal morbidity, twin pregnancy, timing of delivery
