Abstract
OBJECTIVES To explore prevalence, characteristics and risk factors of COVID-19 breakthrough infections (BIs) in idiopathic inflammatory myopathies (IIM) using data from the COVID-19 Vaccination in Autoimmune Diseases (COVAD) study. METHODS A validated patient self-reporting e-survey was circulated by the COVAD study group to collect data on COVID-19 infection and vaccination in 2022. BIs were defined as COVID-19 occurring ≥14 days after 2 vaccine doses. We compared BIs characteristics and severity among IIMs, other autoimmune rheumatic and non-rheumatic diseases (AIRD, nrAID), and healthy controls (HC). Multivariable Cox regression models assessed the risk factors for BI, severe BI and hospitalisations among IIMs. RESULTS Among 9449 included response, BIs occurred in 1447 (15.3%) respondents, median age 44 years (IQR 21), 77.4% female, and 182 BIs (12.9%) occurred among 1406 IIMs. Multivariable Cox regression among IIMs showed age as a protective factor for BIs [Hazard Ratio (HR)=0.98, 95%CI = 0.97-0.99], hydroxychloroquine and sulfasalazine use were risk factors (HR = 1.81, 95%CI = 1.24-2.64, and HR = 3.79, 95%CI = 1.69-8.42, respectively). Glucocorticoid use was a risk factor for severe BI (HR = 3.61, 95%CI = 1.09-11.8). Non-White ethnicity (HR = 2.61, 95%CI = 1.03-6.59) was a risk factor for hospitalisation. Compared with other groups, patients with IIMs required more supplemental oxygen therapy (IIM = 6.0% vs AIRD = 1.8%, nrAID = 2.2%, and HC = 0.9%), intensive care unit admission (IIM = 2.2% vs AIRD = 0.6%, nrAID, and HC = 0%), advanced treatment with antiviral or monoclonal antibodies (IIM = 34.1% vs AIRD = 25.8%, nrAID = 14.6%, and HC = 12.8%), and had more hospitalisation (IIM = 7.7% vs AIRD = 4.6%, nrAID = 1.1%, and HC = 1.5%). CONCLUSION Patients with IIMs are susceptible to severe COVID-19 BI. Age and immunosuppressive treatments were related to the risk of BIs.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Flares of autoimmune rheumatic diseases (AIRDs) following COVID-19 vaccination are a particular concern in vaccine-hesitant individuals. Therefore, we investigated the incidence, predictors and patterns of flares following vaccination in individuals living with AIRDs, using global COVID-19 Vaccination in Autoimmune Diseases (COVAD) surveys. METHODS The COVAD surveys were used to extract data on flare demographics, comorbidities, COVID-19 history, and vaccination details for patients with AIRDs. Flares following vaccination were identified as patient-reported (a), increased immunosuppression (b), clinical exacerbations (c) and worsening of PROMIS scores (d). We studied flare characteristics and used regression models to differentiate flares among various AIRDs. RESULTS Of 15 165 total responses, the incidence of flares in 3453 patients with AIRDs was 11.3%, 14.8%, 9.5% and 26.7% by definitions a-d, respectively. There was moderate agreement between patient-reported and immunosuppression-defined flares (K = 0.403, P = 0.022). Arthritis (61.6%) and fatigue (58.8%) were the most commonly reported symptoms. Self-reported flares were associated with higher comorbidities (P = 0.013), mental health disorders (MHDs) (P < 0.001) and autoimmune disease multimorbidity (AIDm) (P < 0.001).In regression analysis, the presence of AIDm [odds ratio (OR) = 1.4; 95% CI: 1.1, 1.7; P = 0.003), or a MHD (OR = 1.7; 95% CI: 1.1, 2.6; P = 0.007), or being a Moderna vaccine recipient (OR = 1.5; 95% CI: 1.09, 2.2; P = 0.014) were predictors of flares. Use of MMF (OR = 0.5; 95% CI: 0.3, 0.8; P = 0.009) and glucocorticoids (OR = 0.6; 95% CI: 0.5, 0.8; P = 0.003) were protective.A higher frequency of patients with AIRDs reported overall active disease post-vaccination compared with before vaccination (OR = 1.3; 95% CI: 1.1, 1.5; P < 0.001). CONCLUSION Flares occur in nearly 1 in 10 individuals with AIRDs after COVID vaccination; people with comorbidities (especially AIDm), MHDs and those receiving the Moderna vaccine are particularly vulnerable. Future avenues include exploring flare profiles and optimizing vaccine strategies for this group.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The aims of the study were to (1) describe types of pain in cancer patients, (2) examine the predictors and consequences of pain, (3) investigate the association between type of pain and survival, and (4) examine potential biological mediators of pain and survival. METHODS This was a secondary analysis of baseline data from patients diagnosed with cancer. Patients answered questionnaires that assessed sociodemographic characteristics, pain, depression, sleep, and fatigue. Blood was collected and cytokine assays were performed. Analysis of variance, Kaplan-Meier, and Cox regression survival analyses were used to test the aims. RESULTS Of the 779 patients diagnosed with cancer, the mean age was 63.5 years, 57.8% male, and 90.6% White. Of those who reported pain (total 70.3%), 46.5% stated their pain was cancer-related while 53.5% stated their pain was non-cancer-related. While both cancer and non-cancer-related pain was associated with depressive symptoms, fatigue, and sleep duration, those with cancer-related pain had significantly higher rates of depressive symptoms (F(1,516) = 21.217, p < 0.001) and fatigue (F(1,516) = 30.973, p < 0.001) but not poorer sleep (F(1,497) = 0.597, p = 0.440). After adjusting for sociodemographic, disease-related characteristics, depression, sleep duration, and morphine milligram equivalent, patient reports of cancer-related pain were significantly associated with poorer survival (HR = 0.646, 95% CI = 0.459-0.910, p = 0.012) compared to those with non-cancer-related pain, which was not associated with survival (HR = 1.022, 95% CI = 0.737-1.418, p = 0.896). Cytokines did not significantly mediate the link between pain and survival. CONCLUSION While nearly half of the pain reported was cancer-related, both types of pain resulted in greater symptom burden, but only cancer-related pain was associated with survival.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To determine COVID-19 vaccine-related adverse events (AEs) in the seven-day post-vaccination period in patients with SLE vs autoimmune rheumatic diseases (AIRDs), non-rheumatic autoimmune diseases (nrAIDs), and healthy controls (HC). METHODS Data were captured through the COVID-19 Vaccination in Autoimmune Diseases (COVAD) questionnaire (March-December 2021). Multivariable regression models accounted for age, gender, ethnicity, vaccine type and background treatment. RESULTS Among 9462 complete respondents, 583 (6.2%) were SLE patients (mean age: 40.1 years; 94.5% females; 40.5% Asian; 42.9% Pfizer-recipients). Minor AEs were reported by 83.0% of SLE patients, major by 2.6%, hospitalization by 0.2%. AE and hospitalization frequencies were similar between patients with active and inactive SLE. Rashes were more frequent in SLE patients vs HC (OR; 95% CI: 1.2; 1.0, 1.5), chills less frequent in SLE vs AIRDs (0.6; 0.4, 0.8) and nrAIDs (0.5; 0.3, 0.8), and fatigue less frequent in SLE vs nrAIDs (0.6; 0.4, 0.9). Pfizer-recipients reported higher overall AE (2.2; 1.1, 4.2) and injection site pain (2.9; 1.6, 5.0) frequencies than recipients of other vaccines, Oxford/AstraZeneca-recipients more body ache, fever, chills (OR: 2.5, 3.0), Moderna-recipients more body ache, fever, chills, rashes (OR: 2.6, 4.3). Hospitalization frequencies were similar across vaccine types. AE frequencies were similar across treatment groups, although chills were less frequent in antimalarial users vs non-users (0.5; 0.3, 0.9). CONCLUSION While COVID-19 vaccination-related AEs were reported by four-fifths of SLE patients, those were mostly minor and comparable to AEs reported by healthy individuals, providing reassurance regarding COVID-19 vaccination safety in SLE.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The COVID-19 vaccination in autoimmune diseases (COVAD) study aimed to assess short-term COVID-19 vaccination-related adverse events (AEs) in RA patients. METHODS An online self-reported questionnaire (March-December 2021) was used to capture data related to COVID-19 vaccination-related AEs in RA, other autoimmune rheumatic diseases (AIRDs) (excluding RA and inflammatory myositis), non-rheumatic autoimmune diseases (nrAIDs) and healthy controls (HCs). Descriptive and multivariable regression analyses were performed. RESULTS Of the 9462 complete respondents, 14.2% (n = 1347) had been diagnosed with RA; they had a mean (s.d.) age of 50.7 (13.7) years, 74.2% were women and 49.3% were Caucasian. In total, 76.9% and 4.2% of patients with RA reported minor and major AEs, respectively. Patients with active and inactive RA had similar AE and hospitalization frequencies. Overall, AEs were reported more frequently by BNT162b2 and mRNA-1273 recipients and less frequently by BBV152 recipients compared with the rest. Major AE and hospitalization frequencies were similar across recipients of different vaccines. Patients receiving methotrexate and hydroxychloroquine reported fewer minor AEs than those patients not on them. Compared with HCs and patients with other AIRDs, patients with RA reported similar total AEs, overall minor AEs, and hospitalizations. Compared with nrAIDs, patients with RA reported lower frequencies of overall AEs, minor AEs (both odds ratio [OR] = 0.7; 95% CI: 0.5, 0.9), and injection site pain (OR = 0.6; 95% CI: 0.5, 0.8) with similar major AE and hospitalization frequencies. CONCLUSION Despite the differences in AE frequency across different COVID-19 vaccines, all were well tolerated in patients with RA and were comparable to HCs, providing reassurance as to the safety of COVID-19 vaccination.

Abstract
The safety profile of COVID-19 vaccines is understudied in patients with systemic sclerosis (SSc). We compared short-term adverse events (AEs) 7 days following vaccination in patients with SSc vs other rheumatic (AIRDs), non-rheumatic autoimmune diseases (nrAIDs), and healthy controls (HCs). The COVID-19 Vaccination in autoimmune diseases (COVAD) self-reporting e-survey was circulated by a group of > 110 collaborators in 94 countries from March to December 2021. AEs were analyzed between different groups using regression models. Of 10,679 complete respondents [73.8% females, mean age 43 years, 53% Caucasians], 478 had SSc. 83% had completed two vaccine doses, Pfizer-BioNTech (BNT162b2) (51%) was the most common. Minor and major AEs were reported by 81.2% and 3.3% SSc patients, respectively, and did not differ significantly with disease activity or different vaccine types, though with minor symptom differences. Frequencies of AEs were not affected by background immunosuppression, though SSc patients receiving hydroxychloroquine experienced fatigue less commonly (OR 0.4; 95% CI 0.2-0.8). Frequency of AEs and hospitalisations were similar to other AIRDs, nrAIDs, and HC except a higher risk of chills (OR 1.3; 95% CI 1.0-1.7) and fatigue (OR 1.3; 95% CI 1.0-1.6) compared to other AIRDs. COVID-19 vaccines were largely safe and well tolerated in SSc patients in the short term. Background immunosuppression and disease activity did not influence the vaccination-related short-term AEs.

Abstract
Introduction The mechanisms leading to chronic kidney disease (CKD) in patients with idiopathic inflammatory myopathies (IIMs) are poorly understood. We assessed the prevalence of subclinical renal injury in patients with IIMs, through elevation in biomarker levels of tubular injury and fibrosis (NGAL, KIM1, Activin A, CD163, and Cys-c), and assessed differences between subtypes of IIMs, and the effect of disease activity and duration. Materials and methods Clinical data, core set measures, sera and urine were prospectively collected from all patients enrolled in the MyoCite cohort from 2017 to 2021. Twenty healthy subjects (HC) and 16 patients with acute kidney injury (AKI) were included as controls. Baseline and follow up data for IIMs were included. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was used to measure urine NGAL (Human Lipocalin-2/NGAL Duoset ELISA, Cat no: DY1757), KIM1 (Human TIM-1/KIM 1/HAVCR Duoset ELISA, Cat.no: DY1750B), Activin A (Human Activin A Duoset ELISA, Cat no: DY338), CD163 (Human CD163 Duoset ELISA,Cat no: DY1607-05), and Cys-c (Human Cystatin C Duoset ELISA, Cat. no.: DY1196) levels, while eGFR (unit mL/min/1.73 m2) was calculated by the Cockcroft-Gault formula and CKD-EPI formula. Results Analysis of 201 visits of 110 adult patients with IIMs indicated higher normalized biomarker levels compared to HCs, and comparable to patients with AKI, with the exception of NGAL, which was higher in the AKI group. Notably 72 (49%) patients with IIMs had eGFR<90; the levels of the 5 biomarkers were comparable between active and inactive IIMs, and different subtypes of IIMs. Similarly, a poor correlation between urine biomarker levels and core set measures of activity and damage was found. Changes in biomarker levels on follow-up did not correlate with eGFR changes. Discussion This exploratory analysis of urinary biomarkers identified low eGFR and elevated biomarkers of CKD in nearly half of the patients with IIMs, comparable to patients with AKI and higher than HCs, indicative of potential renal damage in IIMs that may have a lead to complications in other systems.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To compare pain intensity among individuals with idiopathic inflammatory myopathies (IIMs), other systemic autoimmune rheumatic diseases (AIRDs), and without rheumatic disease (wAIDs). METHODS Data were collected from the COVID-19 Vaccination in Autoimmune Diseases (COVAD) study, an international cross-sectional online survey, from December 2020 to August 2021. Pain experienced in the preceding week was assessed using numeral rating scale (NRS). We performed a negative binomial regression analysis to assess pain in IIMs subtypes and whether demographics, disease activity, general health status, and physical function had an impact on pain scores. RESULTS Of 6988 participants included, 15.1% had IIMs, 27.9% had other AIRDs, and 57.0% were wAIDs. The median pain NRS in patients with IIMs, other AIRDs, and wAIDs were 2.0 (interquartile range [IQR] = 1.0-5.0), 3.0 (IQR = 1.0-6.0), and 1.0 (IQR = 0-2.0), respectively (P < 0.001). Regression analysis adjusted for gender, age, and ethnicity revealed that overlap myositis and antisynthetase syndrome had the highest pain (NRS = 4.0, 95% CI = 3.5-4.5, and NRS = 3.6, 95% CI = 3.1-4.1, respectively). An additional association between pain and poor functional status was observed in all groups. Female gender was associated with higher pain scores in almost all scenarios. Increasing age was associated with higher pain NRS scores in some scenarios of disease activity, and Asian and Hispanic ethnicities had reduced pain scores in some functional status scenarios. CONCLUSION Patients with IIMs reported higher pain levels than wAIDs, but less than patients with other AIRDs. Pain is a disabling manifestation of IIMs and is associated with a poor functional status.

Abstract
Enthesitis-related arthritis (ERA) is a category of juvenile idiopathic arthritis which belongs to the spectrum of diseases that are included in juvenile spondyloarthropathy. In recent years, there have been significant advances in understanding pathogenesis, tools to assess disease activity, early recognition of the axial disease, and targeted therapy using IL-17 inhibitors and small molecule inhibitors. The current narrative review highlights these new advances. Among many hypotheses linking HLA B27 to ERA, one of them is the effect of HLA B27 on gut dysbiosis. However, recent data suggest that gut dysbiosis is probably not determined by HLA B27. Though children present with arthritis and enthesitis, axial disease is present in 50-60% on MRI. Using data-driven approach, discriminative MRI finding for active and chronic diseases has been defined for children. This will help in the early recognition of disease. An abridged version of juvenile spondyloarthropathy disease activity (JSpADA) score without the need for acute phase reactants and Schober test performed as well as the original score may increase its acceptance in routine practice. Secukinumab (anti-IL-17 antibody) has shown a more than 75% response rate in children with ERA and may be a good alternative to anti-TNF therapy. Initial data with tofacitinib also look promising. All these will translate into better outcomes for children with ERA.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Retinal changes are the window to systemic vasculature. Therefore, we explored retinal changes in patients with Idiopathic inflammatory myopathies (IIM) as a surrogate for vascular health. METHODS Adult and Juvenile IIM patients (2017 ACR/EULAR criteria), visiting a tertiary care center in 2021 were enrolled for detailed ophthalmic examination in comparison with healthy controls (HC). Patients with conditions that precluded thorough posterior chamber examination were excluded. Scale variables are expressed as median (IQR). Multivariate analysis (binary logistic regression-BLR) was conducted, adjusting for age, gender, and comorbidities besides factors significant in univariate analysis. RESULTS 43 patients with IIM [31 females; age 36 (23-45) years; disease duration 5.5 (2-12) months] were enrolled for participation. DM (44%) was the most common diagnosis. IIM patients exhibited frequent attenuation of retinal vessels (32.6 vs. 4.3%, p < 0.001), AV nicking (14 vs. 2.2%, p = 0.053), and vascular tortuosity (18.6 vs. 2.2%, p = 0.012), besides decreased visual acuity (53.5 vs. 10.9%, p<0.001) and immature cataracts (34.9 vs. 2.2%, p < 0.001). Attenuation of vessels [OR 10.9 (1.7-71), p = 0.004] emerged as significantly different from HC after adjusting for covariates in BLR. Notably, adults with IIM were more predisposed to retinal abnormalities [21 (57%) vs. 1 (16%), p = 0.068], especially attenuation of vessels [14(38%) vs. 0(0), p = 0.067] than jIIM. However, no difference was found in retinal features amongst the subtypes of adult IIM, nor did they correlate with MDAAT, MDI, or HAQ-DI. CONCLUSION Retinal microvasculopathy and diminution of vision occur in nearly one-thirds to half of the patients with IIM. Microvasculopathy occurs across subtypes of IIM, and more so in adults, calling for further investigation as a surrogate for damage assessment and potentially even systemic vascular health.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The assessment of physical function is fundamental in the management of patients with idiopathic inflammatory myopathies (IIMs). We aimed to investigate the physical function of patients with IIMs compared with those with non-IIM autoimmune rheumatic diseases (AIRDs) utilizing Patient-Reported Outcome Measurement Information System (PROMIS) Physical Function (PF) data obtained in the COVAD study, an international self-reported e-survey assessing the safety of COVID-19 vaccines in AIRDs. METHODS Demographics, AIRD diagnosis, disease activity, and PROMIS PF short form-10a data were extracted from the COVAD database. PROMIS PF-10a scores were compared between disease categories and stratified by disease activity. Factors affecting PROMIS PF-10a scores other than disease activity were identified by multivariable regression analysis in patients with inactive disease. RESULTS A total of 1057 IIM patients, 3635 non-IIM AIRD patients and 3981 healthy controls (HCs) responded to the COVAD e-survey from April to August 2021. Using a binomial regression model, the predicted mean of PROMIS PF-10a scores was significantly lower in IIM patients compared with non-IIM AIRD patients or HCs [36.3 (95% CI 35.5, 37.1) vs 41.3 (95% CI 40.2, 42.5) vs 46.2 (95% CI 45.8, 46.6), P < 0.001], irrespective of disease activity. The independent factors for lower PROMIS PF-10a scores in patients with inactive disease were older age, female, longer disease duration, and a diagnosis of inclusion body myositis or polymyositis. CONCLUSION Physical function is significantly impaired in IIMs compared with non-IIM AIRDs or HCs, even in patients with inactive disease. Our study highlights a critical need for better strategies to minimize functional disability in patients with IIMs.

Abstract
Introduction/Aims In this study we investigated COVID‐19 vaccination–related adverse events (ADEs) 7 days postvaccination in patients with idiopathic inflammatory myopathies (IIMs) and other systemic autoimmune and inflammatory disorders (SAIDs). Methods Seven‐day vaccine ADEs were collected in an international patient self‐reported e‐survey. Descriptive statistics were obtained and multivariable regression was performed. Results Ten thousand nine hundred respondents were analyzed (1227 IIM cases, 4640 SAID cases, and 5033 healthy controls [HCs]; median age, 42 [interquartile range, 30‐455] years; 74% female; 45% Caucasian; 69% completely vaccinated). Major ADEs were reported by 76.3% of the IIM patients and 4.6% reported major ADEs. Patients with active IIMs reported more frequent major (odds ratio [OR], 2.7; interquartile range [IQR], 1.04‐7.3) and minor (OR, 1.5; IQR, 1.1‐2.2) ADEs than patients with inactive IIMs. Rashes were more frequent in IIMs (OR, 2.3; IQR, 1.2‐4.2) than HCs. ADEs were not impacted by steroid dose, although hydroxychloroquine and intravenous/subcutaneous immunoglobulins were associated with a higher risk of minor ADEs (OR, 1.9; IQR, 1.1‐3.3; and OR, 2.2; IQR, 1.1‐4.3, respectively). Overall, ADEs were less frequent in inclusion‐body myositis (IBM) and BNT162b2 (Pfizer) vaccine recipients. Discussion Seven‐day postvaccination ADEs were comparable in patients with IIMs, SAIDs, and HCs, except for a higher risk of rash in IIMs. Patients with dermatomyositis with active disease may be at higher risk, and IBM patients may be at lower risk of specific ADEs. Overall, the benefit of preventing severe COVID‐19 through vaccination likely outweighs the risk of vaccine‐related ADEs. Our results may inform future guidelines regarding COVID‐19 vaccination in patients with SAIDs, specifically in those with IIMs. Studies to evaluate long‐term outcomes and disease flares are needed to shed more light on developing future COVID‐19 vaccination guidelines.

Abstract
Objective: To evaluate and compare the effect of high-intensity light-emitting diode (LED) light-curing unit at different curing times on the shear bond strength (SBS), surface enamel loss, and degree of polymerization of a light-cure and dual-cure adhesive system. Materials and Methods: One hundred and twenty extracted human premolar teeth were divided into 2 groups— group 1 (light cure) and group 2 (dual cure), depending on the adhesive system used. These groups were further subdivided into 3 subgroups with 20 teeth each, depending on the duration of curing. A high-intensity LED curing unit was used to bond metal brackets onto the teeth. The samples were tested on a universal testing machine to measure the SBS. The samples were then observed under a simple microscope and modified adhesive remnant index scores were assigned. The bracket bases were mapped with energy-dispersive X-ray spectrometry to evaluate the amount of enamel present. Cured adhesive was scraped and was subjected to Fourier-Transform Infrared Spectroscopy to assess the degree of cure (%DC). Results: An increase in curing durations increased mean SBS values, %DC, and calcium-phosphorous ratios (Ca:P). Similarly, these parameters were higher for dual-cure subgroups when compared to light-cure subgroups. Conclusion: High-intensity LEDs can be used successfully for bonding orthodontic brackets with reduced curing duration. These LEDs help to reduce chairside time and can minimize damage to enamel without compromising bond strength.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Idiopathic inflammatory myopathies (IIMs) form a heterogeneous group of disorders with a deficit of quality evidence regarding its management. Therefore, we aimed to explore the prevalent treatment practices in the MyoCite cohort from India. METHODS Drug usage patterns, their predictors, drug retention rates, efficacy, and adverse drug reactions were analyzed for adults and children newly diagnosed with IIM (2017-2020) and followed prospectively and compared with real-world data by performing a medical records review. GraphPad Prism version 8.4.2 was used for statistical analysis. RESULTS Of 181 adults (male-to-female ratio, 1:4.6) and 30 children (M:F, 1.3:1), dermatomyositis (41% adults, 93% children) was the most common subtype. Methotrexate (MTX) was the drug of choice (67% adult, 90% children) followed by azathioprine (AZA) and mycophenolate mofetil (MMF). The MMF, AZA, cyclophosphamide, and rituximab (RTX) were preferred for those with antisynthetase syndrome (ASSD) and those with lung involvement, whereas MTX was avoided in them. Functional class and family income did not determine drug preferences. Glucocorticoids were initiated at a lower dose in overlap myositis (45% vs 80%, p = 0.001), and the time to achieve the lowest dose of glucocorticoids was longer than 24 months for ASSD (77% vs 14%, p = 0.002).Over a median of 35 months, the overall retention rate was the highest for RTX (75%) followed by MTX (58%). Relapse-free survival was the highest for RTX followed by MTX. The most common reasons for discontinuation were adverse drug reactions for MTX and MMF, inefficacy for AZA, and cost for RTX. CONCLUSIONS In this first analysis of drug usage and retention in patients with IIM in Northern India, MTX emerged as the most preferred drug in both adults and children, with the exception of those with ASSD or lung disease. Organ involvement and subtype of IIM are key determinants of drug preference. Overall, RTX and MTX were well-tolerated with high retention rates, followed by AZA and MMF.

Abstract
PURPOSE Myositis as a rare manifestation of COVID-19 is only recently being reported. This review examines the current literature on COVID-19-induced myositis focusing on etiopathogenesis, clinical presentations, diagnostic practices, and therapeutic challenges with immunosuppression, and the difficulties experienced by rheumatologists in established myositis in the COVID-19 era. RECENT FINDINGS COVID-19 is associated with a viral myositis attributable to direct myocyte invasion or induction of autoimmunity. COVID-19-induced myositis may be varied in presentation, from typical dermatomyositis to rhabdomyolysis, and a paraspinal affliction with back pain. It may or may not present with acute exponential elevations of enzyme markers such as creatine kinase (CK). Virus-mediated muscle inflammation is attributed to ACE2 (angiotensin-converting enzyme) receptor-mediated direct entry and affliction of muscle fibers, leading on to innate and adaptive immune activation. A greater recognition of the stark similarity between anti-MDA5-positive myositis with COVID-19 has thrown researchers into the alley of exploration - finding common etiopathogenic basis as well as therapeutic strategies. For patients with established myositis, chronic care was disrupted during the pandemic with several logistic challenges and treatment dilemmas leading to high flare rates. Teleconsultation bridged the gap while ushering in an era of patient-led care with the digital transition to tools of remote disease assessment. COVID-19 has brought along greater insight into unique manifestations of COVID-19-related myositis, ranging from direct virus-induced muscle disease to triggered autoimmunity and other etiopathogenic links to explore. A remarkable shift in the means of delivering chronic care has led patients and caregivers worldwide to embrace a virtual shift with teleconsultation and opened doorways to a new era of patient-led care.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION There is paucity of data on tuberculosis in Indian patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). We retrospectively studied clinical features and outcome of tuberculosis in SLE. METHODS Medical records of patients who developed tuberculosis simultaneous or after the diagnosis of SLE were retrospectively reviewed. All patients fulfilled 1997 ACR and/or SLICC 2012 classification criteria for SLE. A diagnosis of tuberculosis required bacteriological, histopathological or CT/MRI suggestive of tuberculosis and initiation of four drug antituberculous therapy. Baseline parameters were compared with the rest of cohort to identify predictors of tuberculosis. RESULTS In our cohort of 1335 SLE patients, 48 (3.6%) developed tuberculosis. Incidence of tuberculosis was calculated to be 733 per 100,000 patient years and occurred after a mean disease duration of 3.0 ± 4.1 years. Extrapulmonary tuberculosis (n = 37) was commoner than pulmonary tuberculosis (n =11). Most common radiological pattern in pulmonary tuberculosis was miliary and musculoskeletal TB was most common extrapulmonary TB. A microbiological diagnosis was obtained in 52.1% patients. Male gender was associated with higher risk of tuberculosis [OR 3.30 (1.55-7.05)]. Mortality was 14.5% and all patients who died had either disseminated (n = 5) or central nervous system (CNS) tuberculosis (n = 2). CONCLUSION Incidence of tuberculosis in SLE is higher than general population and is associated with different phenotype and higher mortality. Male gender was associated with increased risk of tuberculosis in SLE.

Abstract
AIM Infections are the leading cause of morbidity and mortality in idiopathic inflammatory myositis (IIM) with India being endemic for Tuberculosis (TB). We compared and contrasted the prevalence, clinical profile and outcomes of active TB in IIM with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). METHODS Medical records were reviewed for adults and children with IIM (Bohan and Peter criteria) and SLE (ACR criteria) at a tertiary care hospital in India from January 2015 to October 2017. Follow-up was recorded until February 2020 for all those who had developed active TB. RESULTS Of 167 (132 adults and 35 juvenile) IIM and 280 (131 adults and 149 juvenile) SLE, active TB occurred in 24 (14.4%) IIM (22 (16.7% of 132) adults; 2 (5.71% of 35) juvenile) and 18 (6.4%) SLE [(8 (6.1% of 131) adults; 10 (6.7% of 149) juvenile, p-value < 0.01]. Patients with IIM had higher odds of developing TB as compared with SLE [OR 2.24 (CI 1.5-5.5), p=0.007]. The risk of developing active TB was 68-fold and 30.4-fold higher in patients with IIM and SLE, respectively, as compared with the general population. Extrapulmonary forms were more common (14/24). Nearly half developed TB during active IIM, at a glucocorticoid dose of 0.25 (0-1.5) mg/kg/day. Over a follow-up duration of 27 months (8-184), all were cured of TB, though prolonged course of anti-tuberculous treatment was required in 25%, and five IIM relapsed during treatment. CONCLUSION Patients with IIM have increased risk of active TB, with common extrapulmonary forms, slow response, and relapses during treatment.

Abstract
Poor obstetric outcomes are described in rheumatic diseases (RDs) such as systemic sclerosis (SSc). We assessed the effect of the disease in Indian women and compared with those in developed countries and other RDs. Women with SSc (ACR/EULAR 2013 criteria) registered at a tertiary care centre (2010-2016) were interviewed by teleconsultation. Pregnancies occurring after disease onset were compared with those occurring prior to it. Maternal complications included antepartum hemorrhage, postpartum hemorrhage, spontaneous abortion, preterm rupture of membrane, oligohydramnios, infection, prolonged labour, and foetal complications including low birth weight (LBW), intrauterine death (IUD), preterm delivery, and neonatal infection. Results were expressed as median (Interquartile range). Of 200 SSc, 75 patients aged 31 (22-38) years and disease duration 41 (32-50) months were interviewed. Diffuse cutaneous SSc was the most common (42.56%). 127 conceptions before the onset of SSc were compared with 15 after. Among post-diagnosis, 9 (60%) were live births, 3 (20%) spontaneous abortions 1 (6.7%) induced abortion, 2 (13.3%) IUD. Of the live births, 4 (26.7%) were preterm and 3 (20%) were LBW. Pregnancies after disease onset had a higher rate of maternal (OR - 4.9) and foetal (OR - 9.9) complications compared to pregnancies before SSc. Compared to the Italian cohort, Indian SSc patients had a higher abortion rate (OR - 5.8), frequent lower section ceaserean section (OR - 9.4) and lower live births (OR - 0.05). More frequent caesarean deliveries (OR - 93), preterm deliveries (OR - 20) when compared with lupus and favourable maternal outcomes (OR - 0.15), higher preterm deliveries (OR - 9.6) in comparison with Takayasu arteritis were noted. SSc incurs a higher risk of poor maternal as well as the foetal outcome.

Abstract
Overlap myositis (OM), an important subset of idiopathic inflammatory myopathies (IIM), is being increasingly recognized with wider myositis-specific autoantibody (MSA) testing. We studied the differences in clinical characteristics and long-term outcomes of OM with Dermatomyositis (DM), Polymyositis (PM), anti-synthetase syndrome (ASSD), and Cancer-associated IIM (CAM). Data from the MyoCite registry (Dec2017-May2020), a prospective dataset of IIM was extracted for the clinical profile, and MSAs, immunosuppressants received, disease activity (relapses and incomplete response), and treatment-related (drugs ADRs and infections) adverse events (DRAE and TRAE) were collected and analyzed between groups. Of 214 adults (58-OM,89-DM,27-ASSD,33-PM,7-CAM), OM had a greater female preponderance (13.5:1). Raynaud's and sclerodactyly were the prime distinguishing features of OM. OM could be distinguished from PM by frequent arthritis (OR-3.2) and infrequent dysphagia (OR-0.17); DM with greater nephritis (OR-20), infrequent dysphagia (OR-0.24) and rashes (OR-0.02); and ASSD by infrequent ILD (OR-0.07), and mechanic's hand (OR-0.05). 50% fulfilled the classification criteria for ASSD in the absence of MSA testing. ANA was positive more often (PM/DM: OR-6.7) and anti-Ro52 (OR-4.5) frequent in OM. Baseline serum creatinine and acute phase reactants were higher. OM received lower glucocorticoids (0 mg/kg, p < 0.001). Overall, 90% and 84% of OM at 12 and 24 months, respectively, achieved remission, with similar DRAE and TRAE as other IIM subsets. OM can be misdiagnosed as ASSD in the absence of MSA testing. Raynaud's, sclerodactyly, and a positive ANA may identify OM and prevent overtreatment.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The Idiopathic Inflammatory Myositis (IIM) are heterogenous with distinct clinical phenotypes associated with specific myositis specific antibodies (MSA) and myositis associated antibodies (MAA). OBJECTIVES To evaluate the frequency, pattern and associations of MSA/MAA in a large Indian cohort of IIM. METHODS Adult and juvenile IIM (2017 ACR/EULAR criteria), were recruited in the MyoCite cohort between 2017and 2020 at a tertiary center in Northern India. Standardized clinical and laboratory variables were extracted from the database archive. Serum samples were evaluated for the presence of MSAs/MAAs by Line immunoassay and anti-nuclear antibodies (ANA) by Immunofluorescence assay (IFA). The prevalence and clinical associations of different MSA/MAAs were assessed. RESULTS MSA and MAAs were tested in 250 IIM patients (214 adults, 36 children) of age [40 (30-49), 13 (7.5-16) years] and disease duration [ 7 (3-17), 6 (2-17) months] comprising predominantly of Dermatomyositis (DM) followed by Overlap myositis (OM). MSAs/MAAs were found in 148 (59.2%, 60.7% adults and 50% JIIM), of which two-thirds were MSA (95, 64% overall). Two cases (0.8%) had more than one MSA. In adult IIM, the most common MSA was anti-Jo-1 (10%), whereas it was anti-MDA5 and anti-NXP2 4 (11%) each in Juvenile IIM (JIIM). 76.0% (172/226) were ANA positive, with speckled pattern being the most common (37%,). Nearly two-thirds (54, 61%) of those with negative ANA had MSA/ MAA. Nearly half (18/54, 54.6%) had MSA associated with cytoplasmic patterns. ARS (anti-aminoacyl-tRNA synthetase) were associated with mechanic's hands (OR-7.06), ILD (OR-4.4), and arthritis (OR-2.23). Clinical associations of anti-Jo-1 and non-Jo-1 Anti synthetase syndrome (ASS) did not differ. Anti-MDA-5 associated with oral ulcers (OR-8.3), fever (OR-8.6) and weight loss (OR-7.35) in adults, and arthritis (OR-11.5), and periungual rash (OR-9.6) in children. Anti-TIF-1γ associated with photosensitivity (OR-10.44) and malignancy (OR-34) in adults, and cuticular overgrowth (OR-11.2) in children. CONCLUSION Myositis autoantibodies are seen in two-thirds IIMs and are associated with distinct clinical subsets. Jo-1 and non-Jo-1 ASS exhibit similar characteristics. The association of anti-TIF1 γ with malignancy was confirmed in adults. MSA/MAA were present in two-thirds of those with negative ANA and MSA were nearly always mutually exclusive.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Mortality in SLE has a bimodal peak with early deaths mainly related to disease activity and infection. Although mortality has reduced over years, it is still two to three folds compared to the general population. In India due to increased burden of infection and limited access to health care, the causes may be different. METHODS Retrospective, review of records of all adult SLE patients fulfilling ACR 1997 criteria, who died in hospital between 2000-2019 at a teaching hospital in India was done. In addition, baseline clinical features were extracted for all adult SLE patients seen during this period.Infections were either bacteriologically proven or based on clinicradiological or serologic evidence. Active disease was defined as SLEDAI 2k ≥ 5. Logistic regression was performed to ascertain risk factors for mortality. RESULTS A total of 1337 (92% females) patient records were reviewed .The mean age at presentation was 29.9 ± 9 years.60-75% of patients had fever, mucocutaneous disease and arthritis, while nephritis, hematologic, serositis and neurologic involvement was seen in 48.6%, 43.2%, 16% and 10.3% respectively as presenting mainfestations. There were 80 in hospital deaths .Infection was the most common cause of death, with 37 due to infection alone and in 24 disease activity also contributed. Only 18 deaths were due to active disease. Among bacterial infections lung was the most common site and gram negative organism were the most common pathogens. There were 10 deaths due to Tuberculosis(TB) and half of them had disseminated disease. Patients with disease activity had a SLEDAI of 14.8 ± 6.4, with neurological, renal and cardiovascular involvement being the major contributors to mortality in 11, 7 and 6 cases respectively. Higher age at onset, male gender, fever, myositis, neurological, cardiovascular, gastrointestinal involvement, vasculitis, elevated serum creatinine at baseline were independent predictors of death. CONCLUSION Infections are the most common cause of in-hospital mortality in SLE and TB still accounts for 15% of deaths related to infection. Vasculitis, myositis, cardiovascular and gastrointestinal involvement emerged as novel predictors of mortality in our cohort.

Abstract
Background Histoplasmosis is an endemic mycosis caused by Histoplasma Capsulatum, a thermally dimorphic fungus with mycelial and yeast forms. Muscle involvement is infrequent in Histoplasmosis. Case A 49-year-old lady presented with generalized myalgia and arthritis of two-year duration, which had responded partly to glucocorticoids. The lady reported to us two years into the illness with ulcerative eyelid lesions, worsening myalgia, and painful skin nodules. Eventually, it turned out that anti-synthetase syndrome was the primary diagnosis with Histoplasma infection in the muscles, subcutaneous tissue, and eye. We herewith present the course of her illness and a review of Histoplasmosis of the muscle in literature. Conclusion The differential diagnosis of painful muscle weakness is broad. Histoplasma capsulatum infection should be considered in immunosuppressed myositis patient presenting with orbital ulcers, skin nodules and worsening muscle weakness.

Abstract
Teleconsultation has assumed a central role in the management of chronic and disabling rheumatic diseases, such as the idiopathic inflammatory myopathies (IIM), during COVID-19. However, the feasibility, challenges encountered, and outcomes remain largely unexplored. Here, we describe our teleconsultation experience in a prospectively followed cohort of adult and juvenile IIM. 250 IIM enrolled into the MyoCite cohort (2017-ongoing) were offered the option of audio/visual teleconsultation using WhatsApp during the nationwide lockdown. Clinical outcomes (major/minor relapse) and prescription changes were compared between IIM subsets. Socio-demographic and clinico-serological characteristics of those who sought teleconsultation were compared with those who did not. 151 teleconsultations were sought over a 93 day period by 71 (52.2%) of 136 IIM (median age 38 years, F:M 4.5:1). Nearly one-third (38%) consulted on an emergency basis, with voice consultations being the primary medium of communication. Over a quarter (26.8%) reported relapse (15.5% minor, 11.3% major), these being more common in JDM [71.4%, OR 8.9 (1.5-51)] as compared with adult IIM, but similar across various antibody-based IIM subtypes. Patients who relapsed required more consultations [2(2-3) vs 1(1-2), p 0.009]. The demographic and socioeconomic profile of the patients seeking consultation (n = 71) was not different from those who did not (n = 65). Voice-based teleconsultations may be useful to diagnose and manage relapses in IIM during the pandemic. Patient education for meticulous and timely reporting may be improve care, and larger multicentre studies may identify subsets of IIM that require greater care and early tele-triage for effective management of the condition.

Abstract
The idiopathic inflammatory myopathies (IIM) are heterogeneous and lead to high morbidity and mortality. Knowledge deficits among healthcare professionals could be detrimental to clinical care. Identifying areas of deficient Knowledge, Attitude and Practice (KAP) of IIM can improve physician education and patient outcomes. To assess the proportion of physicians treating IIM with poor KAP and identify the key areas of deficit. An anonymised and validated e-survey (57 questions) was circulated among physicians treating IIM (purposive sampling). Responses were evaluated using the Likert scale for good (> 70% correct response), poor (> 20% chose > 2 answers) and the rest as intermediate consensus. Descriptive statistics were used. Intergroup comparisons were done using non-parametric tests. Of 80 (9.1% of 883) respondents, 90% were rheumatologists and 37.5% academicians. The knowledge base of treating physicians was good in specific domains such as triggers (80-90%), clinical presentation (MDA5, statin myositis, steroid myopathy, anti-synthetase syndrome) (82-92%), IIM mimics (41-89%), investigations (23-92%) and risk of osteoporosis in IIM (79%). There is also an intermediate knowledge base/consensus for outcome measures (30-56%) and response criteria (30-53%). There was poor knowledge and consensus on trials (27-34%), EULAR/ACR criteria (31%) and exercise-based interventions (17-62%). While 90% agree on the need for muscle biopsy to diagnose polymyositis, only one-third advocated it for juvenile and adult DM. Physicians have a good understanding of the triggers, clinical presentation and mimics of IIM. Poor to intermediate knowledge and consensus exists regarding muscle biopsy, outcome measures, response criteria and exercise-based interventions, which could be addressed through future focussed educational initiatives.

Abstract
Introduction: Interbracket distance (IBD) plays a key role in load deflection and frictional resistance in the biomechanics of tooth movement. Aim: The aim of this study was to assess the influence of load deflection and friction between the bracket and archwire for a specific load on different bracket designs. Materials and Methods: IBD brackets ( n = 60), Sondhi Mini Uni-Twin brackets ( n = 60), low profile brackets ( n = 60), and Victory conventional brackets ( n = 60) were selected for the study. Load deflection was measured using a universal testing machine on 0.016″ nickel-titanium (NiTi) wire. A universal testing machine was used to measure the frictional resistance on 0.019″ × 0.025″ stainless steel wire. Results: The load deflection of 0.016″ NiTi wire was the highest in IBD followed by Sondhi Mini Uni-Twin, Sondhi conventional, and Victory conventional. Static friction and kinetic friction were the highest in Victory conventional brackets followed by low profile brackets, Sondhi Mini Uni-Twin, and IBD brackets. Conclusions: Load-deflection property will increase with increase in IBD, and frictional resistance will decrease with increase in IBD.

Abstract
Background: Plantation industries in India employ over 1 million people and are among the largest private employers in India. Plantations employ both skilled and un-skilled labour’s. The risks of occupational accidents are higher among this population due to the unfavorable working conditions.Objectives: To study the profile of occupational accidents and to describe the time trend of these occupational accidents. To assess changes if any in the profile of occupational accidents reporting to a rural plantation hospital over the last decade.Methodology: A descriptive hospital record review of all the patients presenting with occupational accident from January 2008 to December 2009.Results: 439 patients were registered with history of accidents; among them 196 were occupational accidents. Majority of the victims of the accident were in the age group of 21 – 40 years and were among males. Most common type and site of injuries were superficial injuries on the upper limbs. There is no significant change in the profile on occupational accidents over the last decade. DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.3126/ijosh.v3i2.6138

Abstract
Remote regions such as the Antarctic have become increasingly important for investigations into far-reaching anthropogenic impacts on the environment, most recently in regard to the global mercury cycle. Spatial patterns of mercury availability in four regions of the Antarctic Peninsula were investigated using three species of sympatrically breeding Pygoscelis penguins as biomonitors. Eggshells with intact membranes from Adélie, Gentoo, and Chinstrap penguins were collected at 24 breeding colonies in the South Orkney Islands, South Shetland Islands, eastern Antarctic Peninsula, and western Antarctic Peninsula during the 2006/2007 austral summer. In addition, we compared eggshell membrane mercury concentrations with eggshell stable isotope values (δ(15)N and δ(13)C) to determine if species-specific trophic or foraging habitat preferences influenced female mercury exposure prior to breeding. With few exceptions, mercury concentrations were found to be fairly homogeneous throughout the Antarctic Peninsula suggesting little spatial variation in the risk of exposure to dietary mercury in this food web. Mercury concentrations in Gentoo and Adélie penguins were similar while Chinstrap penguins tended to have higher eggshell membrane mercury concentrations than their congeners. However, inter and intra-specific differences in eggshell membrane mercury concentration were not related to eggshell δ(15)N or δ(13)C values, a likely result of all three species foraging at similar trophic positions. The lack of regional-scale differences in mercury availability in this marine ecosystem may be a reflection of generally uniform atmospheric deposition and upwelling of regionally homogeneous deep water rather than from geographically distinct point sources.
