Abstract
Background Biologic disease-modifying drugs have revolutionised the treatment of a number of chronic inflammatory diseases (CID). However, up to 60% of the patients do not have a sufficient response to treatment and there is a need for optimization of treatment strategies. Objective To investigate if the treatment outcome of biological therapy is associated with the habitual dietary intake of fibre and red/processed meat in patients with a CID. Methods In this multicentre prospective cohort study, we consecutively enrolled 233 adult patients with a diagnosis of Crohn's Disease, Ulcerative Colitis, Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA), Axial Spondyloarthritis, Psoriatic Arthritis and Psoriasis, for whom biologic therapy was planned, over a 3 year period. Patients with completed baseline food frequency questionnaires were stratified into a high fibre/low red and processed meat exposed group (HFLM) and an unexposed group (low fibre/high red and processed meat intake = LFHM). The primary outcome was the proportion of patients with a clinical response to biologic therapy after 14-16 weeks of treatment. Results Of the 193 patients included in our primary analysis, 114 (59%) had a clinical response to biologic therapy. In the HFLM group (N = 64), 41 (64%) patients responded to treatment compared to 73 (56%) in the LFHM group (N = 129), but the difference was not statistically significant (OR: 1.48, 0.72-3.05). For RA patients however, HFLM diet was associated with a more likely clinical response (82% vs. 35%; OR: 9.84, 1.35-71.56). Conclusion Habitual HFLM intake did not affect the clinical response to biological treatment across CIDs. HFLM diet in RA patients might be associated with better odds for responding to biological treatment, but this would need confirmation in a randomised trial. Trial registration (clinicaltrials.gov), identifier [NCT03173144].

Abstract
Objectives Surfactant protein-D (SP-D), an innate immune defence molecule of the collectin family, is expressed in lungs and additional extrapulmonary epithelia. SP-D has immune modulatory and anti-microbial effects depending on its oligomerization. The ratio of high molecular weight (HMW): low molecular weight (LMW) SP-D in serum is mainly determined by the Met11Thr polymorphism (SNP rs721917). We aimed to study the SP-D serum level and the molecular size distribution in patients with untreated axial spondyloarthritis (axSpA) as compared with control subjects. Methods Thirty-four patients with disease modifier untreated axSpA according to the ASAS criteria, age 19-63 years, disease duration 3.9 (2.2-5.6) years were included. Demographics, smoking habits, HLA-B27 status, ASDAS, BASDAI, BASFI, BASMI and visual analogue scale scores were recorded. SP-D in serum was measured by ELISA. DNA was isolated from whole blood and single nucleotide polymorphism rs721917 was genotyped. SP-D molecular size distribution was determined using gel filtration chromatography. Results SP-D in serum did not differ between patients with axSpA and healthy controls, 1177 (869, 1536) vs 910 (494, 1682) (P = 0.35) and SP-D did not correlate with disease activity. However, the HMW/LMW ratio of SP-D in serum was significantly lower in axSpA, 0.38 (0.18, 0.53) compared with controls 1.49 (0.37, 3.24) when adjusting for the Met11Thr polymorphism, gender, age, BMI and smoking (P = 0.0004). There was no correlation between HMW/LMW ratio and CRP or composite diseases outcome measures. Conclusion We suggest that predominance of LMW oligomeric variants of SP-D may enhance local or systemic inflammatory responses in axSpA.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The aim of this investigation was to estimate the heritability of circulating collagen IIA N-terminal propeptide (PIIANP) by studying mono- and dizygotic healthy twin pairs at different age and both genders. DESIGN 598 monozygotic (MZ) and dizygotic (DZ) twin individuals aged 18-59 years were recruited from the Danish Twin Registry. PIIANP was measured by competitive ELISA. The similarity of circulating PIIANP among MZ and DZ twins was assessed by intraclass correlations according to traits. The heritability was estimated by variance component analysis accounting for additive and dominant genetic factors as well as shared and non-shared environment but ignoring epistasis (genetic inter-locus interaction) and gene-environment interaction. RESULTS The intraclass correlation of PIIANP in MZ and DZ twins was 0.69 (0.60-0.76) and 0.46 (0.34-0.58) respectively indicating a significant genetic impact on PIIANP in serum. Additive genetic effects explained 45% (21-70%), shared environment 24% (7-53%) and non-shared environment 31% (24-39%) of the total variance. The heritability estimate did not differ across ages and between genders. CONCLUSIONS The study shows that approximately 45% of the collagen IIA synthesis as assessed by the collagen IIA N-terminal propeptide in serum is attributable to genetic effectors while individual and shared environment account for 24% and 31% respectively. The heritability does not differ between genders or according to age.
