RESUMO

To examine clinical course of early systemic sclerosis (SSc) and identify factors for progression of acro-osteolysis by a retrospective cohort study. Dual time-point hand radiography was performed at median interval (range 3.0 ± 0.4 years) in 64 recruited patients. Progressive acro-osteolysis was defined as the worsening of severity of acro-osteolysis according to rating scale (normal, mild, moderate, and severe). Incidence of the progression was determined. Cox regression was analyzed for the predictors. A total of 193.6 per 100 person-years, 19/64 patients had progressive acro-osteolysis with incidence of 9.8 per 100-person-years (95% CI 6.3-15.4). The median time of progressive acro-osteolysis was 3.5 years. Rate of progression increased from 1st to 3rd years follow-up with the progression rate at 1-, 2- and 3-years were 0, 2.0 and 18.3%, respectively. Patients with positive anti-topoisomerase I tended to have more progressive acro-osteolysis but no significant predictors on Cox regression. 44%, 18%, and 33% of who had no, mild, and moderate acro-osteolysis previously developed progression and 10 turned to be severe acro-osteolysis. In conclusion, the incidence of progressive acro-osteolysis was uncommon in early SSc but the rate of progression was pronouncedly increasing after three years follow-up. A half of the patients progressed to severe acro-osteolysis.

RESUMO

Importance: Degos-like lesions are cutaneous manifestations of a small-vessel vasculopathy that appear as atrophic, porcelain-white papules with red, telangiectatic borders. No study has adequately examined Degos-like lesions in patients with systemic sclerosis (SSc). Objective: To characterize the serologic, cutaneous, and internal organ manifestations associated with Degos-like lesions in a large cohort of patients with SSc. Design, Settings, and Participants: This retrospective cohort study involved adult patients with SSc who were seen at Stanford Rheumatologic Dermatology Clinic between January 1, 1998, and December 31, 2018. Participants fulfilled the 2013 classification criteria for SSc. Data analysis was conducted from February 1 to June 1, 2019. Main Outcomes and Measures: Data on demographic characteristics; autoantibody status; clinical characteristics, including cutaneous and systemic manifestations of SSc; and presence of Degos-like lesions were collected. Results: The cohort comprised 506 patients with SSc (447 females [88.3%]; mean [SD] age at first non-Raynaud disease symptoms, 46.1 [15.2] years). Twenty-seven patients (5.3%) had Degos-like lesions, of whom 24 (89.0%) had lesions affecting the fingers. Patients with Degos-like lesions were more likely to have diffuse cutaneous SSc compared with patients without lesions (15 [55.6%] vs 181 [37.8%]; P = .04). Degos-like lesions were also associated with acro-osteolysis (10 [37.0%] vs 62 [12.9%]; P < .01), digital ulcers (15 [55.6%] vs 173 [36.1%]; P = .04), and calcinosis (15 [55.6%] vs 115 [24.0%]; P < .01). While Degos-like lesions were not associated with internal organ manifestations, such as scleroderma renal crisis, interstitial lung disease, or pulmonary arterial hypertension, there was P < .10 for the association with gastric antral vascular ectasia. Conclusions and Relevance: Results of this study suggest an association of Degos-like lesions with diffuse cutaneous SSc and other cutaneous manifestations of vasculopathy, including acro-osteolysis, calcinosis, and digital ulcers. A prospective longitudinal study is warranted to examine the onset of Degos-like lesions and to elucidate whether these lesions play a role in SSc.

RESUMO

OBJECTIVE: To perform a scoping review focusing on osteolysis in systemic sclerosis (SSc). METHODS: This review was performed in line with the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic reviews and Meta-Analyses extension for Scoping Reviews (PRISMA-ScR) recommendations. RESULTS: From a total of 351 results, 29 articles were included for the final analysis. The publications included proved to be heterogeneous regarding the population and inclusion criteria. The lack of a standardized method of detection of osteolysis further enhanced these inequalities. Most studies reported location/prevalence of osteolysis and associations with other manifestations, with only a minority focusing on topics like predictors of osteolysis and its prognostic value. None of the authors addressed treatment approach. The most frequently analyzed and prevalent location was acro-osteolysis (AO). Diffuse cutaneous subtype and anti-topoisomerase I antibody correlated positively with AO. Disease duration, calcinosis, and digital ischemia were the features more frequently associated with AO, but only the last 2 predicted AO. Ultrasound showed high sensitivity for detection of AO. CONCLUSION: Despite the effect that osteolysis has on patients with SSc, there is a significant lack of studies on this area. Notably, there are no studies that we know of focused on treatment. Also, there is a lack of longitudinal studies that would allow a reliable assessment of its prognostic value and predictors.

RESUMO

Werner syndrome (WS) is an autosomal recessive syndrome characterized by genomic instability that affects multiple body systems. The characteristic features of the disease include growth retardation, short stature, alopecia, scleroderma, atrophic skin with ulcerations, infertility, cataracts, premature arteriolosclerosis, diabetes, osteoporosis, and increased risk of malignancies. Werner syndrome protein (WRN) protein deficiency in this disease causes changes in gene expression, similar to those observed in normal aging. As the median age of death in WS is the fourth or fifth decade of life, early diagnosis leads to a better screening opportunity for malignancies. Herein, we present a 28-year-old woman who presented with growth arrest, dyspigmentation, and acroosteolysis and was later diagnosed with Werner syndrome.

RESUMO

Introducción. La esclerosis sistémica es una patología rara que afecta predominantemente a las mujeres. Se utiliza la escala de Medsger para evaluar la severidad, pero precisa de estudios caros y de difícil acceso y no incluye complicaciones tales como acrosteólisis, calcinosis, enfermedades pericárdicas o hipotiroidismo, que se presentan con relativa frecuencia en esta enfermedad. No existen estudios que tengan en cuenta si las comorbilidades, como la cirrosis biliar primaria, se asocian a la gravedad. Objetivos. Establecer la correlación entre la gravedad y la presencia de complicaciones asociadas. Métodos. Se estudió a 40 pacientes con esclerosis sistémica, divididos entre terciles conforme a su gravedad. Se describen las variables dicotómicas con porcentajes, mientras que las variables dimensionales se describen con medias+DE. La interferencia estadística se llevó a cabo con la prueba de la χ2 y de Kruskal-Wallis con la prueba de Dunn después del test, según procediera. Se estableció la significación estadística en p<0,05. Resultados. De todas las complicaciones analizadas, solo había diferencias en el caso de la acrosteólisis. Entre las comorbilidades, la cirrosis biliar primaria no se asocia a la gravedad (AU)


Introduction. Systemic sclerosis is a rare disease that predominantly affects women. The Medsger severity scale has been used to assess the severity, but it requires expensive and poorly accessible studies and it does not include complications such acrosteolysis, calcinosis, pericardial disease or hypothyroidism that occur on a relatively frequent basis in this disease. There is no study that considers if comorbidities, such as primary biliary cirrhosis, are related to gravity. Objectives. To determine the correlation between severity and the presence of such complications. Methods. 40 patients with systemic sclerosis, dividing them into tertiles according to severity were studied. Dichotomous variables were described using percentages, while dimensional by averages+SD. Statistical inference was performed using chi square test or Kruskal-Wallis test with Dunn post-test, as appropriate. A significance at P<.05 was set. Results. Of all the complications studied there were only differences in severity with acrosteolysis. Within comorbidities, primary biliary cirrhosis is not associated with gravity (AU)

RESUMO

OBJECTIVES: Acro-osteolysis (bony resorption of the terminal digital tufts) is a well-recognized, but under-researched, manifestation of SSc. Our aim was to investigate the hypothesis that acro-osteolysis is associated with (i) the severity of digital ischaemia and (ii) the presence of calcinosis. METHODS: This was a retrospective study of 101 patients with SSc in whom hand radiographs taken between 2001 and May 2008 were available for review. These radiographs were graded for severity of acro-osteolysis on a 0-4-point scale for each finger (0 = normal bone structure, 4 = severe pencilling of the terminal phalanges). From these scores, patients were subdivided into the following two groups: normal/minimal acro-osteolysis and moderate/severe acro-osteolysis. The presence or absence of calcinosis (mild, moderate or severe) was also documented. RESULTS: Of the 101 patients, 68 were grouped as normal/minimal acro-osteolysis and 33 as moderate/severe acro-osteolysis. Forty-five had severe digital ischaemia: 25 (76%) of the patients with moderate/severe acro-osteolysis compared with 20 (29%) of those with normal/minimal acro-osteolysis (multifactorial analysis: P < 0.001). Patients with moderate/severe acro-osteolysis were more likely to have severe calcinosis (33% vs 13%), but this was not statistically significant after adjustment for potential confounders. CONCLUSION: Acro-osteolysis was strongly associated with severe digital ischaemia. The potential association with severe calcinosis merits further study. Prospective studies are required to investigate acro-osteolysis as a marker of digital vascular disease progression and of treatment response.

RESUMO

La osteoartropatía hipertrófica es una entidad caracterizada por la tríada de periostitis de huesos largos, acropaquias y artritis. Radiológicamente se distinguen 2 patrones; uno caracterizado por neoformación ósea que predomina en pacientes con patología pulmonar, y otro por acro-osteolisis que se asocia más frecuentemente con cardiopatías congénitas. Presentamos el caso de un varón de 30 años diagnosticado de hipertensión arterial pulmonar primaria desde los 2 años, que desarrolló una osteoartropatía hipertrófica con un patrón radiológico mixto (AU)


Hypertrophic osteoarthropathy is an entity characterized by a triad of periostitis of long bones, clubbing and arthritis. Radiologically there are two patterns, one characterized by new bone formation which predominates in patients with pulmonary disease, and another by acro-osteolysis that is most frequently associated with congenital heart disease. We report the case of a 30-year-old man diagnosed with primary pulmonary hypertension for two years, developing hypertrophic osteoarthropathy with a mixed radiological pattern (AU)

RESUMO

Hajdu-Cheney syndrome is a rare, autosomal dominant skeletal dysplasia marked by acro-osteolysis of the distal phalanges and severe osteoporosis. Although there are more than 60 reports published to date, proper treatment and subsequent outcome have been scarce. Herein, we report a progress of anti-resorptive therapy with zoledronic acid, in a woman with Hajdu-Cheney syndrome. Results suggest that anti-resorptive therapy may be important in delaying the progress of osteoporosis and preventing fractures, but not necessarily acro-osteolysis itself.

RESUMO

Mutation in ZMPSTE24 gene, encoding a major metalloprotease, leads to defective prelamin A processing and causes type B mandibuloacral dysplasia, as well as the lethal neonatal restrictive dermopathy syndrome. Phenotype severity is correlated with the residual enzyme activity of ZMPSTE24 and accumulation of prelamin A. We had previously demonstrated that a complete loss of function in ZMPSTE24 was lethal in the neonatal period, whereas compound heterozygous mutations including one PTC and one missense mutation were associated with type B mandibuloacral dysplasia. In this study, we report a 30-year longitudinal clinical survey of a patient harboring a novel severe and complex phenotype, combining an early-onset progeroid syndrome and a congenital myopathy with fiber-type disproportion. A unique homozygous missense ZMPSTE24 mutation (c.281T>C, p.Leu94Pro) was identified and predicted to produce two possible ZMPSTE24 conformations, leading to a partial loss of function. Western blot analysis revealed a major reduction of ZMPSTE24, together with the presence of unprocessed prelamin A and decreased levels of lamin A, in the patient's primary skin fibroblasts. These cells exhibited significant reductions in lifespan associated with major abnormalities of the nuclear shape and structure. This is the first report of MAD presenting with confirmed myopathic abnormalities associated with ZMPSTE24 defects, extending the clinical spectrum of ZMPSTE24 gene mutations. Moreover, our results suggest that defective prelamin A processing affects muscle regeneration and development, thus providing new insights into the disease mechanism of prelamin A-defective associated syndromes in general.
