ABSTRACT

Inherited thrombophilia (IT) has been implicated as a potential causal factor of adverse pregnancy outcomes (APOs), including recurrent miscarriage with and without the presence of antiphospholipid syndrome (APS). The aim of this study was to assess the prevalence and impact of IT on fetal-maternal outcomes and thrombotic risk in women within the spectrum of obstetric APS. Three hundred and twenty-eight women with APS-related obstetric morbidity ever pregnant were included. Of these, 74 met the APS classification criteria, 169 were non-criteria (NC)-APS, and 85 were seronegative (SN)-APS. Patients with other autoimmune diseases were excluded. APOs included early pregnancy loss, fetal death, preeclampsia, abruptio placentae, and preterm birth. Successful pregnancy was defined as the achievement of a live newborn. A literature search was also performed. The mean age of the overall group was 33.9 ± 5.3 years, and the patients were followed up for 35 (11-79) months. During the study period, there were 1332 pregnancies. Nearly 14% of the patients had an associated IT. IT patients more frequently received the standard-of-care (SoC) therapy. The presence of IT was not associated with worse maternal-fetal outcomes in patients treated with SoC treatment. Overall, IT patients had a lower frequency of newborns without treatment, especially those without definite APS. In addition, IT did not increase the risk of thrombosis during pregnancy or the postpartum period. A detailed analysis of the literature review identified only four publications related to our study and did not show conclusive evidence of the impact of IT on patients with obstetric APS. The group of women with APS-related obstetric morbidity and IT who did not receive treatment, especially those without definite APS, had a worse prognosis in terms of a live birth. However, with SoC therapy, the prognosis is similar in those patients without IT. The association of IT with APS does not seem to predispose to the development of thrombosis during pregnancy and/or the postpartum period.

ABSTRACT

Introduction Retinal vein occlusion (RVO) is mostly a consequence of vascular risk factors (VRF). COVID-19 vaccines have been related to vascular and thrombotic events (VTE). Objective To assess the RVO incidence in the general population in our health area and the possible relation with COVID-19 infection and vaccination. Methods Demographic features, classic VRF, thrombophilia data, COVID-19 status, and Framingham risk score were collected prospectively. Results 472 consecutive patients studied over 13 years with RVO were included (Valdecilla Cohort). Classic VRFs were present in 90%, antiphospholipid syndrome in 12.3%, and genetic thrombophilia in 13.5%. Ninety-one percent of RVO patients were vaccinated and 6.8% suffered COVID-19 infection. In the cohort, no patient had a new RVO after vaccination or infection. In the general population, 20 subjects had RVO after receiving the vaccine (0.006%). Overall, 8 cases occurred in the first-month post-vaccination and 12 after 30 days. In the early and late groups, there are 3 and 4 patients respectively, with a low-intermediate risk Framingham score. Twenty-nine patients in the cohort suffered SARS-CoV-2 infection, twenty-seven of them had RVO before infection. Two patients with low-risk Framingham scores had RVO after infection, one of them early (<1 month). Conclusion Vaccination and COVID-19 might be involved in the development of RVO in some cases, mainly in patients without VRF, thrombophilia, or chronic inflammatory conditions and with a lower Framingham score, especially in the first month after vaccination or infection (AU)


Introducción La oclusión venosa retiniana (OVR) es principalmente una consecuencia de los factores de riesgo vascular (FRV). Las vacunas contra la COVID-19 se han relacionado con eventos vasculares y trombóticos (EVT). Objetivo Evaluar la incidencia de OVR en la población general de nuestra área de salud y su posible relación con la COVID-19 y la vacunación. Métodos Se recopilaron prospectivamente las características demográficas, FRV clásicos, datos sobre trombofilia, padecimiento de la COVID-19 y puntuación de riesgo de Framingham. Resultados Se incluyeron 472 pacientes consecutivos con OVR, estudiados durante 13 años (Cohorte Valdecilla). Los FRV clásicos estaban presentes en el 90%, el síndrome antifosfolípido en el 12,3% y la trombofilia genética en el 13,5% de los casos. El 91% de los pacientes con OVR recibieron la vacuna frente a la COVID-19 y el 6.8% sufrió la infección. En la cohorte, ningún paciente tuvo una nueva OVR después de la vacunación o de la infección. En la población general, 20 sujetos presentaron OVR después de recibir la vacuna (0,006%). En general, 8 casos ocurrieron en el primer mes después de la vacunación y 12 después de 30 días. En los grupos precoz y tardío, 3 y 4 pacientes respectivamente, presentaban una puntuación de Framingham de riesgo bajo o intermedio. Veintinueve pacientes de la cohorte sufrieron infección por SARS-CoV-2 y 27 de ellos tuvieron una OVR antes de ésta. Dos pacientes con puntuaciones de Framingham de bajo riesgo presentaron una OVR después de la infección, uno de ellos precozmente (<1 mes). Conclusiones La vacunación y la COVID-19 podrían estar involucradas en el desarrollo de OVR en algunos casos, principalmente en pacientes sin FRV, trombofilia o procesos inflamatorios crónicos y con una puntuación de Framingham más baja, especialmente en el primer mes después de la vacunación o de la infección (AU)

ABSTRACT

INTRODUCTION: Retinal vein occlusion (RVO) is mostly a consequence of vascular risk factors (VRF). COVID-19 vaccines have been related to vascular and thrombotic events (VTE). OBJECTIVE: To assess the RVO incidence in the general population in our health area and the possible relation with COVID-19 infection and vaccination. METHODS: Demographic features, classic VRF, thrombophilia data, COVID-19 status, and Framingham risk score were collected prospectively. RESULTS: 472 consecutive patients studied over 13 years with RVO were included (Valdecilla Cohort). Classic VRFs were present in 90%, antiphospholipid syndrome in 12.3%, and genetic thrombophilia in 13.5%. Ninety-one percent of RVO patients were vaccinated and 6.8% suffered COVID-19 infection. In the cohort, no patient had a new RVO after vaccination or infection. In the general population, 20 subjects had RVO after receiving the vaccine (0.006%). Overall, 8 cases occurred in the first-month post-vaccination and 12 after 30 days. In the early and late groups, there are 3 and 4 patients respectively, with a low-intermediate risk Framingham score. Twenty-nine patients in the cohort suffered SARS-CoV-2 infection, twenty-seven of them had RVO before infection. Two patients with low-risk Framingham scores had RVO after infection, one of them early (<1 month). CONCLUSIONS: Vaccination and COVID-19 might be involved in the development of RVO in some cases, mainly in patients without VRF, thrombophilia, or chronic inflammatory conditions and with a lower Framingham score, especially in the first month after vaccination or infection.
