Artritis idiopática juvenil en el adulto joven. Metodología, objetivos y datos iniciales del registro JUVENSER / Juvenile idiopathic arthritis in the young adult. Methodology, objectives, and initial data from the JUVENSER registry

Objetivo: Describir la metodología, los objetivos y exponer los datos iniciales del registro de pacientes adultos jóvenes con diagnóstico de artritis idiopática juvenil (AIJ), registro JUVENSER, así como sus fortalezas y limitaciones. El objetivo principal del proyecto es conocer las características sociodemográficas, clínicas y la actividad de la enfermedad de pacientes con AIJ en el periodo de transición a la vida adulta. Material y método: Estudio longitudinal, prospectivo y multicéntrico que incluye pacientes adultos jóvenes, entre 16 y 25 años, con diagnóstico de AIJ en cualquiera de sus categorías, atendidos en consultas de reumatología de 16 centros hospitalarios españoles cuyo objetivo principal es determinar las características y la actividad de las AIJ en los primeros años de la vida adulta. Se diseñó un registro en el que se incluyeron variables sociodemográficas, variables clínicas, índices de actividad y daño articular, datos de la utilización de recursos sanitarios, y los fármacos y tratamientos utilizados. El periodo de reclutamiento fue de 27 meses y la duración total del proyecto serán 3 años. Se ha conseguido una cohorte de 534 pacientes adultos jóvenes. Conclusiones: El registro JUVENSER constituirá una cohorte de pacientes adultos jóvenes con AIJ, que permitirá evaluar las características clínicas y la respuesta al tratamiento de los pacientes con inicio de su enfermedad en edad pediátrica que llegan a las consultas de adultos. Se espera que la información recogida en las visitas suponga una amplia fuente de datos para futuros análisis.(AU)

Severe Disease in Patients With Recent-Onset Psoriatic Arthritis. Prediction Model Based on Machine Learning.

Objectives: To identify patient- and disease-related characteristics that make it possible to predict higher disease severity in recent-onset PsA. Methods: We performed a multicenter observational prospective study (2-year follow-up, regular annual visits). The study population comprised patients aged ≥ 18 years who fulfilled the CASPAR criteria and less than 2 years since the onset of symptoms. Severe disease was defined at each visit as fulfillment of at least 1 of the following criteria: need for systemic treatment, Health Assessment Questionnaire (HAQ) > 0.5, polyarthritis. The dataset contained data for the independent variables from the baseline visit and follow-up visit number 1. These were matched with the outcome measures from follow-up visits 1 and 2, respectively. We trained a logistic regression model and random forest-type and XGBoost machine learning algorithms to analyze the association between the outcome measure and the variables selected in the bivariate analysis. Results: The sample comprised 158 patients. At the first follow-up visit, 78.2% of the patients who attended the clinic had severe disease. This percentage decreased to 76.4% at the second visit. The variables predicting severe disease were patient global pain, treatment with synthetic DMARDs, clinical form at diagnosis, high CRP, arterial hypertension, and psoriasis affecting the gluteal cleft and/or perianal area. The mean values of the measures of validity of the machine learning algorithms were all ≥ 80%. Conclusion: Our prediction model of severe disease advocates rigorous control of pain and inflammation, also addressing cardiometabolic comorbidities, in addition to actively searching for hidden psoriasis.

Registro Español de Artritis Psoriásica de Reciente Comienzo (estudio REAPSER). Objetivos y metodología / Spanish Registry of Recent-onset Psoriatic Arthritis (REAPSER study): aims and methodology

OBJETIVOS: Describir la metodología del Registro Español de Artritis Psoriásica de reciente comienzo de la Sociedad Española de Reumatología (REAPSER), así como sus fortalezas y limitaciones. El objetivo principal del proyecto es identificar factores pronósticos de la evolución clínica y radiográfica en una cohorte de pacientes que padecen artritis psoriásica (APs) diagnosticada con menos de 2 años de evolución. MATERIAL Y MÉTODO: Estudio observacional, prospectivo (2 años de seguimiento; periodicidad anual de las visitas), multicéntrico. La intención en la visita basal fue reflejar la situación del paciente antes de que la evolución de la enfermedad se viese modificada por los tratamientos pautados en los servicios de reumatología. Los pacientes fueron invitados a participar consecutivamente en una de sus visitas habituales al reumatólogo. El tamaño muestral finalmente alcanzado fue de 211 pacientes. Se recogen datos sociodemográficos; de situación laboral; historia familiar; antecedentes personales y comorbilidad; antropométricos; estilo de vida; uso de los servicios de salud; situación clínica al diagnóstico de APs; afectación articular y dolor espinal; dolor y valoración global de la enfermedad; entesitis, dactilitis y uveítis; afectación cutánea y ungueal; situación funcional y calidad de vida; evaluación radiográfica; determinaciones analíticas; tratamiento; brotes en esqueleto axial y periférico. CONCLUSIONES: El estudio REAPSER incluye una cohorte de pacientes con APs de inicio reciente reclutados antes de que la evolución de la enfermedad se viese modificada por la prescripción de FAME en los servicios de reumatología. Se espera que la información exhaustiva recogida en las visitas suponga una amplia fuente de datos para futuros análisis

AIMS: To describe the methodology of REAPSER (Spanish Registry of Recent-onset Psoriatic Arthritis), its strengths and limitations. The aim of this study is to identify prognostic factors for the clinical and radiographic course in a cohort of patients with psoriatic arthritis (PsA) diagnosed within 2 years of symptom evolution. METHODS: Multicenter, observational and prospective study (with 2-year follow-up including annual visits). Baseline visit intended to reflect patient situation before the disease course was modified by treatments prescribed in rheumatology departments. Patients were invited to participate consecutively in one of their routine visits to the rheumatologist. 211 patients were included. Following data were collected: sociodemographic variables; employment situation; family history; personal history and comorbidities; anthropometric data; lifestyle; use of healthcare services; clinical situation at the time of PsA diagnosis; joint involvement and spinal pain; pain and overall assessment; enthesitis, dactylitis and uveitis; skin and nail involvement; functional situation and quality of life; radiographic evaluation; analytical determinations; treatment; axial and peripheral flare-ups. CONCLUSIONS: The REAPSER study includes a cohort of patients with recent-onset PsA, before the disease course was modified by disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs prescribed in rheumatology departments. Exhaustive information collected in each visit is expected to be an important data source for future analysis

Persistence and adverse events of biological treatment in adult patients with juvenile idiopathic arthritis: results from BIOBADASER.

BACKGROUND: Biologic therapy has changed the prognosis of patients with juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA). The aim of this study was to examine the pattern of use, drug survival, and adverse events of biologics in patients with JIA during the period from diagnosis to adulthood. METHODS: All patients included in BIOBADASER (Spanish Registry for Adverse Events of Biological Therapy in Rheumatic Diseases), a multicenter prospective registry, diagnosed with JIA between 2000 and 2015 were analyzed. Proportions, means, and SDs were used to describe the population. Incidence rates and 95% CIs were calculated to assess adverse events. Kaplan-Meier analysis was used to compare the drug survival rates. RESULTS: A total of 469 patients (46.1% women) were included. Their mean age at diagnosis was 9.4 ± 5.3 years. Their mean age at biologic treatment initiation was 23.9 ± 13.9 years. The pattern of use of biologics during their pediatric years showed a linear increase from 24% in 2000 to 65% in 2014. Biologic withdrawal for disease remission was higher in patients who initiated use biologics prior to 16 years of age than in those who were older (25.7% vs 7.9%, p < 0.0001). Serious adverse events had a total incidence rate of 41.4 (35.2-48.7) of 1000 patient-years. Patients younger than 16 years old showed significantly increased infections (p < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS: Survival and suspension by remission of biologics were higher when these compounds were initiated in patients with JIA who had not yet reached 16 years of age. The incidence rate of serious adverse events in pediatric vs adult patients with JIA treated with biologics was similar; however, a significant increase of infection was observed in patients under 16 years old.
