Метою цієї роботи є оцінка клінічної симптоматики COVID-19 інфекції у пацієнтів з запальними захворюваннями суглобів (ЗЗС) на тлі різних видів базисної терапії. Дана робота є фрагментом моноцентрового ретроспективного дослідження. Для оцінки впливу ЗЗС на симптоматику COVID-19 інфекції використані елементи дизайну «випадок-контроль». Показано, що у пацієнтів з ЗЗС (n = 32) з низькою активністю процесу або в стадії ремісії на тлі прийому будь-яких хворобомодифікуючих антиревматичних препаратів (ХМАРП) (синтетичних, біологічних, таргетних) перебіг захворювання було порівняно з таким у групі контролю (n = 96). Рідше зазначалося підвищення температури вище 380С, відношення шансів (ВШ) 2,84, 95% довірливий інтервал (ДВ) 1,24 - 6,51. Легкий перебіг інфекції зазначався у 18 (56,3%) пацієнтів з ЗЗС, помірний - у 14 (43,7%), важкого перебігу у наших пацієнтів не було відзначено. Гострий COVID-19 зустрівся у 23 (71.9%) пацієнтів, постійна симптоматика COVID-19 - у 9 (29,1%) пацієнтів з ЗЗС, post-COVID-19 і long-COVID-19 не зустрілися. Було оцінено перебіг основного захворювання до (в межах 3 місяців) COVID-19 інфекції і після (через 3 місяці) початку COVID-19 інфекції. Активність ревматоїдного артриту (РА) при первинному обстеженні з використанням Disease Activity Score (DAS) 28 (С-РБ) та повторному склала 2.3±0,7 vs 2.5±0,7, р=0.57. ASDAS (С-РБ) був використаний для оцінки активности АС та склав: 1.5±0,4 до і 1.7±0,4 після, р=0.31. Сумарна оцінка BASDAI (Bath AS Disease Activity Index) у пацієнтів з АС та Нр-АСпА: 2.8±0,7 vs 3.1±0,9 р=0.34. Для пацієнтів з ПсА розраховували PASDAS (Psoriatic Arthritis Disease Activity Score): 1.8±0,5 vs 2.1±0,6 р=0.27. Іншими словами, COVID-19 інфекція не привела до загострення ВЗС. Ці дані свідчать про важливість диференційованого підходу до модифікації лікування ЗЗС на період хвороби COVID-19 інфекції. На 4-й - 6-му тижні від дебюту COVID-19 у всіх пацієнтів з ЗЗС і 31 в контрольній групі визначалися антитіла IgG до SARS-CoV-2. В результаті в групі пацієнтів ЗЗС (n = 32) індекс позитивності склав (М ± SD) 3,9 ± 1,2 (ранги 1,4 - 6,9), а в контрольній групі (n = 31) 5,1 ± 1,7 (ранги 2,3 - 7,8), р = 0.001. У жодного з пацієнтів не було відзначено відсутність вироблення антитіл, хоча, безумовно, їх титр був нижче, ніж в групі контролю. В результаті можна сказати, що низька активність ЗЗС або ремісія можуть служити хорошим прогнозом перебігу та наслідків COVID-19. Для досягнення цієї мети можуть використовуватися, як синтетичні ХМАРП препарати, так і біологічні, і таргетні.

Abstract Objectives To examine which composite measures are most sensitive to change when measuring psoriatic arthritis (PsA) disease activity, analyses compared the responsiveness of composite measures used in a 48-week randomized, controlled trial of MTX and etanercept in patients with PsA. Methods The trial randomised 851 patients to receive weekly: MTX (20 mg/week), etanercept (50 mg/week) or MTX plus etanercept. Dichotomous composite measures examined included ACR 20/50/70 responses, minimal disease activity (MDA) and very low disease activity (VLDA). Continuous composite measures examined included Disease Activity Score (28 joints) using CRP (DAS28-CRP), Clinical Disease Activity Index (CDAI), Simplified Disease Activity Index (SDAI), Disease Activity for Psoriatic Arthritis (DAPSA) and Psoriatic Arthritis Disease Activity Score (PASDAS). Results At week 24, etanercept-treated groups were significantly more effective than MTX monotherapy to achieve ACR 20 (primary end point) and MDA (key secondary end point). When examining score changes from baseline at week 24 across the five continuous composite measures, PASDAS demonstrated relatively greater changes in the etanercept-treated groups compared with MTX monotherapy and had the largest effect size and standardized response. Joint count changes drove overall score changes at week 24 from baseline in all the continuous composite measures except for PASDAS, which was driven by the Physician and Patient Global Assessments. Conclusion PASDAS was the most sensitive continuous composite measure examined with results that mirrored the protocol-defined primary and key secondary outcomes. Composite measures with multiple domains, such as PASDAS, may better quantify change in PsA disease burden. Trail registration https://ClinicalTrials.gov, number NCT02376790.

Objective.To explore the burden of skin, joint, and entheses manifestations in a representative psoriatic arthritis (PsA) outpatient cohort in the biologic treatment era.Methods.This was a cross-sectional study of 141 PsA outpatients fulfilling the ClASsification for Psoriatic ARthritis (CASPAR) criteria and examined between January 2013 and May 2014. Selected disease activity measures were explored including Disease Activity index for PSoriatic Arthritis (DAPSA), Composite Psoriatic Disease Activity Index (CPDAI), Psoriatic Arthritis Disease Activity Score (PASDAS), Disease Activity Score for 28 joints (DAS28), Simplified Disease Activity Index (SDAI), and Psoriasis Area Severity Index (PASI). Dermatology Life Quality Index (DLQI), minimal disease activity (MDA), and remission criteria were assessed.Results.Median (range) DAPSA was 14.5 (0.1–76.4), CPDAI 5 (1–11), PASDAS 3.1 (2.1–4.2), DAS28-erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR) 3.2 (0.6–6.4), SDAI 8.6 (0.1–39.5), PASI 1.2 (0.0–19.7), and DLQI 2.0 (0–17). The MDA criteria were fulfilled by 22.9% of the patients. DAPSA ≤ 4, CPDAI ≤ 2, PASDAS < 2.4, DAS28-ESR < 2.4, SDAI < 3.3, and Boolean’s remission criteria were fulfilled by 12.1, 9.3, 7.8, 26.2, 21.3, and 5.7% of patients, respectively. The number of satisfied patients was similar regardless of whether the group was treated with tumor necrosis factor inhibitors.Conclusion.Our real-life data indicate that there is still a need for improvement in today’s treatment of PsA. Musculoskeletal inflammatory involvement was more prominent than psoriatic skin involvement. Only a few patients fulfilled the DAPSA, PASDAS, and CPDAI remission criteria, and about a quarter fulfilled the MDA criteria. Considerably fewer patients fulfilled PsA-specific remission criteria versus non-PsA specific remission criteria. Still, patient satisfaction was good and PASI and DLQI were low.

Abstract Objective To assess the utility of Patient Based Disease Activity Score 2 (PDAS 2) in assessing the disease activity in Rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Methods A prospective cohort study was conducted on 80 patients of RA. The demographic and clinical characteristics of the patients were recorded. They were assessed for disease activity using “Disease Activity Score 28” (DAS 28), “Clinical Disease Activity Index” (CDAI) and PDAS 2 score at baseline (M0), at 2 months (M2) and at 4 months(M4) while they were on treatment. Data was analyzed for correlation of PDAS-2 with other scores and internal reliability. P < 0.05 was considered for statistical significance. Results The mean age was 40.13\(\pm\) 11.74 years with 70 females and 10 males. There was significant reduction in DAS28, CDAI and PDAS 2 score over 4 month follow up (all scores’ p values < 0.001). Internal reliability (as assessed by Cronbach’s Alpha) of PDAS 2 was 0.578. PDAS 2 showed significant correlation with DAS28 at M0, M2 and M4 (r = 0.792, 0.757 and 0.669 respectively, p value < 0.001) and CDAI (r = 0.861, 0.832 and 0.695 respectively, p value < 0.001). Overall there was a significant agreement between DAS 28 and PDAS 2 (K = 0.788,p < 0.001) and between CDAI and PDAS 2 (K = 0.766,p < 0.001). Conclusion PDAS-2 score can be routinely used in the clinical practice owing to its correlation with DAS-28/CDAI and because of the advantage that it assessed the patients’ daily living activities.

Objective. To compare, “in a real world,” the performance of the most common composite activity indices in a cohort of PsA patients.Methods. A total of 171 PsA patients were involved. The following variables were evaluated: peripheral joint assessment, patient reported of pain, physician and patient assessments of disease activity, patient general health status, dactylitis digit count, Leeds Enthesitis Index, Health Assessment Questionnaire (HAQ), physical and mental component summary score of the Medical Outcome Survey (SF-36), Psoriasis Area and Severity Index (PASI), Dermatology Life Quality Index, C-reactive protein (CRP), and erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR). To measure the disease activity, the Disease Activity Score (DAS28-ESR and DAS28-CRP), Simple Disease Activity Index (SDAI), Composite Psoriatic Disease Activity Index (CPDAI), disease activity in psoriatic arthritis (DAPSA), and Psoriatic Arthritis Disease Activity Score (PASDAS) have been calculated. The criteria for minimal disease activity (MDA) and remission were applied as external criterion.Results. The ROC were similar in all the composite measures. Only the CPDAI showed less discriminative ability. There was a high degree of correlation between all the indices (P<0.0001). The highest correlations were between DAPSA and SDAI (rho = 0.996) and between DAPSA and DAS28-CRP (rho = 0.957). CPDAI, DAPSA, and PASDAS had the most stringent definitions of remission and MDA category. DAS28-ESR and DAS28-CRP had the highest proportions in remission and MDA.Conclusions. Although a good concurrent validity and discriminant capacity of six disease activity indices were observed, the proportions of patients classified in the disease activity levels differed. In particular, the rate of patients in remission was clearly different among the respective indices.

Abstract Objectives To compare responsiveness and longitudinal validity of Disease Activity Score 28 (DAS28), Disease Activity index for PSoriatic Arthritis (DAPSA), Composite Psoriatic Disease Activity Index (CPDAI), Psoriatic ArthritiS Disease Activity Score (PASDAS), GRAppa Composite scorE (GRACE) and Minimal Disease Activity (MDA) in usual care PsA patients, within 1 year after diagnosis. Methods Data collected in the Dutch southwest early PsA cohort (DEPAR) were used. Responsiveness was assessed using effect size (ES), standardized response mean (SRM), and discrimination between different general health states. Longitudinal validity was tested using mixed models with outcomes health-related quality of life (HRQOL), productivity and disability. Results Responsiveness was highest for PASDAS, with ES 1.00 and SRM 0.95, lowest for DAPSA, with ES 0.73 and SRM 0.71, and in between for DAS28, CPDAI and GRACE. Differences in general health were best discriminated with PASDAS and GRACE. Patients reporting stable or worsening general health could not be distinguished by DAS28 or CPDAI. Discrimination was better using DAPSA, but worse than when using PASDAS and GRACE. Longitudinal evolvement of HRQOL and productivity had the highest association with low disease activity according to GRACE, followed by PASDAS, MDA, DAPSA, DAS28, with the lowest association for CPDAI. Conclusion PASDAS and GRACE were superior with respect to responsiveness, and together with MDA best related to longitudinal evolvement of HRQOL, productivity and disability. Responsiveness and longitudinal validity of most outcomes were inferior for DAS28, DAPSA and CPDAI. As alternatives to the continuous measure DAPSA, use of PASDAS or GRACE should be considered.
