AB1305 Risk of autoimmune rheumatic diseases in patients with palindromic rheumatism: a nationwide, population-based, cohort study

Background:To date, very few studies had investigated the epidemiology of interstitial lung disease (ILD) among patients with systemic autoimmune rheumatic disease (SARD).Objectives:To study the risk of interstitial lung disease (ILD) among patients with various systemic autoimmune rheumatic diseases (SARDs) including rheumatoid arthritis (RA), dermatomyositis (DMtis), polymyositis (PM), systemic sclerosis (SSc), systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), and primary Sjögren’s syndrome (pSS).Methods:Using 1997–2013 claims data from the Taiwanese National Health Insurance Research Database, we identified 63,277 newly diagnosed patients with various SARDs after excluding those with overlapping SARD diagnoses from 2001-2013 and randomly selected 253,108 non-SARD subjects matching (1:4) SARD patients for SARD diagnosis, age, sex and the year of the index date. We calculated the incidence rates (IRs) of ILD (ICD-9 code 515) in various SARD groups and the corresponding non-SARD comparison groups and estimated the IR ratios (IRRs) with 95% confidence intervals (CI) of ILD development. Using multivariable cox regression analyses, we estimated hazard ratios (HRs) with 95% CIs of ILD in various SARD groups compared with their comparison groups after adjusting for age, sex, Charlson comorbidity index, amiodarone use and methotrexate use. Sensitivity analyses were conducted by using a narrow definition of ILD.Results:As shown in Table 1, the IRs of ILD were greatest in SSc patients (2,523 per 105years), followed by patients with DMtis (2,463 per 105years), PM (1,956 per 105years), SS (601 per 105years), RA (279 per 105years), and SLE (276 per 105years). Multivariable analyses showed that the risks of ILD were significantly increased in patients with SSc (HR, 66.01; 95% CI, 32.73—133.13), DMtis (128.74, 95% CI, 40.19—412.47), PM (HR, 30.39; 95% CI, 11.24—82.15), pSS (HR, 8.76; 95% CI, 7.03—10.90), RA (HR, 4.22; 95% CI, 3.51—5.08), and SLE (HR, 13.98; 95% CI, 9.25—21.14).Conclusion:This nationwide, population-based, matched cohort study demonstrated that the risks of ILD were significantly increased in patients with SARDs.References:[1]Su R, Bennett M, Jacobs S, Hunter T, Bailey C, Krishnan E, et al.

Background:Palindromic rheumatism (PR) has known to be three patterns of disease course: clinical remission of attacks, persistent attacks, and evolution to chronic arthritis or systemic disease. The spectrum in progression to chronic diseases of PR, however, is quite variable; rheumatoid arthritis (RA), systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), systemic sclerosis (SSc), Sjögren’s syndrome (SjS), ankylosing spondylitis (AS), relapsing polychondritis (RP), Behçet’s disease (BD), sarcoidosis, and psoriatic spondylitis and arthropathy. Because of the small numbers in case-control studies and too aged investigations, now we needs to shed new light on the fate of PR.Objectives:The aim was to investigate the epidemiology of PR and the risk of developing various rheumatic diseases compared with non-PR individuals, employing the National Health Insurance Service (NHIS) medical claims data, which covers all medical institutions of South Korea.Methods:The study used 2007-2018 claims data from the Korean Health Insurance Review and Assessment Service (HIRA). The identified 19,724 PR patients from 2010 to 2016 were assessed for the incidence rate (IR) compared with the population in the given year by 100,000 person-year (py). The date of diagnosis was the index date. After matching with non-PR individuals (1:10) for age, sex and the year of index date, we calculated the hazard ratios (HRs) with 95% confidence intervals (CIs). The risk of developing the various rheumatic diseases and adult immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS) as the outcome diseases in PR cohort was estimated. This risk was compared with that of matched non-PR cohort.Results:Of 19,724 PR patients (8,665 males and 11,059 females), the mean age was 50.2 ± 14.9 years (47.7 ± 14.4 years in males and 52.6 ± 14.9 years in females,p< 0.001). The ratio of male to female patients with PR was approximately 1:1.28. The annual IR of PR was 7.02 (6.92-7.12) per 100,000 py (6.22 (6.09-6.35) and 7.80 (7.66-7.95) per 100,000 py in males and females, respectively). The mean duration to develop the outcome diseases was significantly shorter in PR cohort compared that of non-PR cohort (19.4 vs. 35.8 months,p< 0.001). The most common outcome disease was RA (7.34% of PR patients; 80.0% of total outcome diseases), followed by AS, SLE, BD, SjS, MCTD, DM/PM, SSc, RP, psoriatic arthropathy, and AIDS in PR cohort. The patients with PR had an increased risk of RA (HR 46.6, 95% CI [41.1-52.7]), psoriatic arthropathy (44.79 [15.2-132.4]), SLE (24.5 [16.2-37.2]), MCTD (22.0 [7.7-63.3]), BD (21.0 [13.8-32.1]), SjS (12.4 [8.5-17.9]), AS (9.0 [6.7-12.2]), DM/PM (6.1 [2.6-14.8]), and SSc (3.8 [1.5-9.6]) but not of AIDS. The risk of developing RA was greater in male patients (HR 58.9, 95% CI [45.6-76.2] vs. 43.2 [37.4-49.8],pfor interaction = 0.037) while female patients encountered a higher risk of developing AS (15.8 [8.9-28.1] vs. 7.2 [5.0-10.3],pfor interaction = 0.023). The risk of developing RA, SLE, SjS, and BD were significantly more highly affected in younger age (pfor interaction < 0.001, = 0.003, 0.002, and 0.017, at each).Conclusion:This nationwide, population-based cohort study demonstrated that patients with PR had an increased risk of developing various rheumatic diseases, not only RA but also psoriatic arthropathy. Therefore, patients with PR needs to be cautiously followed up for their potential of diverse outcome other than RA: RA, SLE, SjS, and BD in younger patients, RA in males, and AS in females, in particular.Disclosure of Interests:None declared

History Of

Background:Cohort studies using nationwide health registers have shown an increased risk for affective and anxiety disorders in people with ankylosing spondylitis (AS) and rheumatoid arthritis (RA) (1-3). Moreover, a nationwide cohort study demonstrated an increased risk for mental disorders in people with rheumatic diseases (4).Objectives:We aimed to investigate the risk for psychiatric hospitalization following a hospitalization for rheumatic disease.Methods:Using data from the Czech nationwide register of all-cause hospitalizations, we obtained 4 971 individuals hospitalized (index hospitalization) between 2004 and 2012 for rheumatic diseases - RA, spondyloarthritis (including AS, psoriatic arthritis and undifferentiated spondyloarthritis), systemic lupus erythematosus and systemic sclerodermia, with no history of psychiatric and rheuma-related hospitalization in the previous 10 years from the index hospitalization. On these individuals, we randomly matched (on age, gender and year of index hospitalization) controls that were hospitalized in the same time period for a non-rheumatic disease and have no history of psychiatric and rheumatic hospitalization in the last 10 years from their index hospitalization, in the ratio of 1:5. We employed conditional logistic regression for assessing the risk for psychiatric hospitalization in the subsequent 3 years from the index hospitalization. To strengthen our results, we repeated the matching step 100 times and run the analysis on each resulting dataset separately, and pooled the results. The findings are expressed as odds ratios (OR) with 95% confidence intervals (95% CI).Results:We identified an elevated risk for psychiatric (OR = 1.34, 95% CI = 1; 1.78) and for affective disorders (OR = 2.19, 95% CI = 1.17; 4.1) in people hospitalized for rheumatic diseases. We did not find a statistically significant association with organic, psychotic and anxiety disorders.Conclusion:There is an increased risk for experiencing a psychiatric disorder in the period of 3 years after a rheuma-related hospitalization.References:[1]Shen C-C, Hu L-Y, Yang AC, Kuo BI-T, Chiang Y-Y, Tsai S-J.
