ABSTRACT

SARS-CoV-2, the cause of 2019 novel coronavirus disease (COVID-19), has shown to produce a variety of extrapulmonary manifestations. Rhabdomyolysis due to SARS-CoV-2 infection has been reported mainly in the early course of the disease. In this report, we present the case of a female patient with confirmed SARS-CoV-2 infection who recovered from respiratory compromise and developed a late-onset rhabdomyolysis successfully managed with oral corticosteroids and aggressive hydration. Prompt recognition of this underdiagnosed entity could help prevent subsequent life-threatening complications.

La rabdomiólisis debida a la infección por SARS-CoV-ha sido reportada principalmente en el curso temprano de la enfermedad. En el presente informe, presentamos el caso de una paciente con infección confirmada por SARS-CoV-2 que se recuperó de neumonía por COVID-19 y posteriormente desarrolló una rabdomiólisis de inicio tardío que fue manejada con éxito con corticosteroides orales e hidratación enérgica durante el curso de la hospitalización. El reconocimiento y diferenciación oportuna de esta subdiagnosticada entidad y las manifestaciones constitucionales usuales durante el COVID-19, podrían ayudar a prevenir y tratar tempranamente complicaciones posteriores potencialmente mortales.

ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVE: Patients with psoriasis and psoriatic arthritis (PsA) commonly have nail involvement. There is no validated psoriatic nail assessment tool. Recently, investigators developed the Nail Psoriasis Severity Index (NAPSI). Beginning with NAPSI, our goal was to validate a psoriatic nail assessment tool for use in clinical trials, and investigate correlations between nail and other PsA features. METHODS: Fingernails of 29 patients with PsA were photographed and scored. Clinical data were collected. Using the original NAPSI, analysis revealed high interrater variability of nail scores. Twenty patients' photographs were regraded using the modified NAPSI (mNAPSI). RESULTS: The mNAPSI scores had excellent interrater reliability (Cronbach's alpha 0.98). Nail scores and physicians' global nail severity visual analog scores showed good inter- and intrarater correlations (Spearman's rho 0.85 and 0.90-0.99, respectively; p < 0.01). Several clinical measures correlated with nail scores. CONCLUSION: The mNAPSI demonstrated excellent interrater reliability and construct validity, and may be a valuable tool.
