ABSTRACT

RESUMEN Introducción : La radiografía posteroanterior (PA) de tórax es utilizada rutinariamente como examen complementario en la evaluación de trabajadores. Sin embargo, existe la controversia sobre su indicación y utilidad en todos los trabajadores. El presente estudio tuvo como objetivo describir los factores asociados a hallazgos anormales en radiografías digitales de tórax en trabajadores sin síntomas respiratorios. Materiales y métodos : Se realizó un estudio observacional transversal analítico, utilizando registros de placas radiografías digitales de tórax PA de 24 069 trabajadores asintomáticos respiratorios, evaluados en un establecimiento de salud acreditado para la realización de exámenes médicos ocupacionales en el Perú, entre los años 2016 - 2019. Resultados : De los 24 069 trabajadores asintomáticos, 1166 (4,84 % IC 95 % [4,58 - 5,12]) presentaron radiografía anormal. Los principales hallazgos se encontraron en el parénquima pulmonar y de estas, las imágenes secuelares de tuberculosis fueron las más frecuentes. Se observó que los trabajadores mayores de 50 años (RP(a) = 6,34 IC 95 % [1,68 - 2,01]), los que presentaron bajo peso (RP(a) = 2,71 IC 95 % [1,88 - 3,91]) y los que tuvieron antecedentes patológicos pulmonares (RP(a) = 6,19 IC 95 % [5,54 - 6,91]) presentaron mayor probabilidad de presentar anormalidades en la radiografía pulmonar. Conclusiones : Debido a la baja frecuencia de radiografías digitales anormales de tórax, creemos que no resulta de utilidad como detección precoz de patología respiratoria en la población estudiada y que debería considerarse en trabajadores mayores de 50 años, con antecedente de enfermedad respiratoria y/o con bajo peso. Es importante realizar mayor cantidad de estudios que confirmen nuestros resultados.


ABSTRACT Introduction : Posteroanterior Chest X-Ray (CXR) is usually performed as a routine exam for workers' health surveillance, but their benefits are discussed and controversial. Our investigation described the associated factors with abnormal digital CXR in workers without respiratory symptoms. Materials and methods : An analytical cross-sectional observational study was performed, including 24 069 digital CXR obtained from workers without respiratory symptoms who performed their workers' health surveillance at an accredited occupational health center in Lima, Perú, from 2016 to 2019. Results : Of the 24 069 asymptomatic workers, 1166 (4.84 %, 95 % CI [4.58-5.12]) had abnormal radiography. The main findings were found in the lung parenchyma and of these, sequential images of tuberculosis were the most frequent. It was observed that workers older than 50 years (RP(a) = 6.34, 95 % CI [1.68 - 2.01]), those with low weight (RP(a) = 2.71 95 % CI [1.88 - 3.91]) and those with a history of pulmonary pathology (RP(a) = 6.19 95 % CI [5.54 - 6.91]) were more likely to have abnormalities on pulmonary radiography. Conclusions : Due to the low frequency of abnormal digital Chest X-Ray (CXR), it is not useful as an early detection of respiratory pathology in the population studied, however it should be considered in those over 50 years with a history of respiratory disease and/or low weight. It is important to carry out more studies that confirm our results.

ABSTRACT

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
