Abstract
It is assumed that the risk of developing type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) in patients with gout is influenced by both generally accepted risk factors and factors related to gout. The aim of the study was to evaluate the impact of various risk factors for T2DM in patients with gout. A total of 444 patients (49 women, 395 men) ≥18 years old with gout and without DM were included. The duration of observation was 5.66 [2.69; 7.64] years. To identify the factors associated with the risk of developing T2DM, multivariate logistic regression was used, which included sex; T2DM in relatives; insufficient physical activity; unbalanced diet; age ≥ 45 years; ≥4 attacks per year; presence of tophi; BMI ≥30 kg/m2; allopurinol, febuxostat, glucocorticoids, diuretics, metformin, colchicine; GFR < 60 mL/min/1.73 m2; serum uric acid level (sUA) ≥ 420 µmol/L and ≥ 480 µmol/L. T2DM developed in 108 (24.3%) patients. According to the multivariate model, the presence of ≥4 attacks of arthritis per year increased the risk of T2DM (OR = 5.23; 95% CI: 2.98-9.19; p = 0.0001); presence of tophi (OR = 2.61; 95% CI: 1.50-4.54; p = 0.001); sUA ≥ 480 µmol/L (OR = 2.26; 95% CI: 1.02-5.00; p = 0.144); diuretics (OR = 2.35; 95% CI: 1.19-4.64; p = 0.014). Febuxostat (OR = 0.31; 95% CI: 0.11-0.84; p = 0.022) and metformin (OR = 0.49; 95% CI: 0.21-1.16; p = 0.107) reduced the risk of developing T2DM. Risk of T2DM in patients with gout is associated with high incidence of arthritis attacks, MK ≥ 480 μmol/L, hypertension, diuretic use, and febuxostat and metformin reduces risk.

Abstract
The role of antiphospholipid antibodies (aPL), which are not included in the Sydney diagnostic criteria, in antiphospholipid syndrome (APS) and systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is poorly understood. The aim of this study was to determine the clinical significance of IgG antibodies for domain 1 of β2-glycoprotein 1 (β2-GP1), IgG anti-β2-GP1DI, in patients with APS with and without SLE. The study included 187 patients with APS with or without SLE, 49 patients formed the comparison group, and 100 apparently healthy individuals formed the control group. IgG/IgM antibodies to cardiolipin (aCL) and IgG/IgM anti-β2-GP1 were determined by enzyme immunoassay (ELISA) in patients with or without APS, and IgG anti-β2-GP1DI was determined by chemiluminescence assay (CLA) in all patients and controls. IgG anti-β2-GP1DI was detected in 37 (71%) of 52 patients with primary APS (PAPS), in 6 (50%) of 12 patients with probable APS, in 42 (71%) of 59 patients with SLE + APS, in 17 (26%) of 64 patients with SLE, in 1 (2%) of the comparison group, and in none of the control group. IgG anti-β2-GP1DI was significantly associated with PAPS and SLE + APS compared with the patients with SLE (p = 0.0002 and 0.0001, respectively). The association of IgG anti-β2-GP1DI with clinical manifestations of APS (thrombosis (p = 0.001) and obstetric pathology (p = 0.04)) was detected. There was a significant association of IgG anti-β2-GP1DI with arterial thrombosis (p = 0.002) and with late gestational obstetric pathology (p = 0.01). High specificity of IgG anti-β2-GP1DI depending on the diagnosis and clinical manifestations of APS despite low sensitivity was noted: specificity was 84% for thrombosis, 94% for obstetric pathology, and 89% for APS. Isolated IgG anti-β2-GP1DI positivity was reported in 2% of 50 aPL-negative patients and was not associated with APS manifestations. The frequency of IgG anti-β2-GP1DI detection was higher in the patients with APS compared to the patients with SLE, comparison group, and control (p < 0.05). Positive IgG anti-β2-GP1DI values were significantly associated with thrombotic complications and with obstetric pathology (p = 0.002 and p = 0.01, respectively). Specificity of IgG anti-β2-GP1DI for APS and its clinical manifestations (thrombosis and obstetric pathology) was higher than sensitivity (89, 94, and 84%, respectively).

Abstract
BACKGROUND The clinical and serologic heterogeneity of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) presents challenges for diagnosis, particularly in the earliest stages of the disease when there are insufficient signs to make a reliable diagnosis. AIM To make a comparative assessment of sensitivity and specificity of various classification criteria of SLE on a cohort of patients of Nasonova Research Institute of Rheumatology. MATERIALS AND METHODS A total of 252 patients were included in the study; 152 (60%) of 252 patients had reliable SLE (mean age 36 [29.5-46] years, duration of disease 9 [3.4-19] years). Of 252 patients, 26 (11%) had PAPS (mean age 36.5 [31-42] years, duration of disease 4.6 [1-10.4] years). Systemic sclerosis was diagnosed in 74/252 (29%) patients, (mean age 51.5 [42-59] years, duration of disease 9 [5-16] years). The quality of the classification function of the criteria was assessed by ROC analysis. RESULTS SLE was diagnosed in 131 (86%) of 152 patients using the American College of Rheumatology - ACR)-1997 criteria, in 145 (95%) using the The Systemic Lupus International Collaborating Clinics (SLICC) 2012 criteria, and in 144 (94.7%) using the European League Against Rheumatism (EULAR)/ACR 2019 criteria. ANF positivity was the least statistically significant of all signs in relation to the diagnosis of SLE. The area under the curve (AUC) for ANF≥1/160 titers was AUC 0.654 for the ACR-97 criteria, AUC 0.616 for the SLICC-12 SLE criteria, and AUC 0.609 for the 2019 EULAR/ACR criteria. ROC analysis of the relationship between the number of criteria/points and a reliable diagnosis of SLE revealed a high diagnostic accuracy - the AUC for all SLE criteria was greater than 0.940. In the ROC analysis of patients with SLE and PAFS, indicating the number of diagnostic criteria, sensitivity was 86% for ACR-1997, 95% for SLICC-2012, 95% for EULAR/ACR 2019, and specificity was 100, 62 and 62%, respectively. CONCLUSION The classification criteria SLICC-2012 and EULAR/ACR 2019 are more sensitive for the diagnosis of SLE in the Russian population, and the criteria ACR-1997 are more specific. All three variants of the SLE classification criteria have sufficient sensitivity and specificity for their use in real clinical practice.

Abstract
AIM To develop an integral index of psoriatic arthritis (PsA) activity. MATERIALS AND METHODS 117 patients with PsA (M/F - 63/54) were included. Patients' age 44±11 years, psoriasis (Ps) duration - 213±153 months, PsA duration - 73.4±78.5 months. Patients underwent standard clinical examination of PsA activity: tender (out of 68) and swollen (out of 66) joint counts (TJC, SJC), LEI, tenderness of the plantar fascia (PF), skin lesion severity (BSA), presence of nail Ps, body mass index (BMI), erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR), C-reactive protein (CRP), DAPSA, FACIT-F. Parametric and nonparametric statistic methods, correlation and ROC analysis were used. RESULTS Mean DAPSA was 38±21, TJC - 14.2±10.6, SJC - 10.6±8.3, ESR - 30.5±29.5 mm/h, CRP - 23.3±29 mg/l, LEI - 1.2±1.5, FACIT-F - 32±11, BMI - 27.4±6.2 kg/m2. The following significant positive correlations were revealed: between DAPSA and BMI, patients' age, ESR, PsA and Ps duration, TJC, SJC, LEI, presence of PF enthesitis, skin lesion severity, presence of nail Ps. A negative correlation between FACIT-F and male sex was found. Based on the predictive model of parameters, the Entesial-Comorbid Index of PsA (ECIPsA) was created: 3.81×LEI+13.72×PF+0.54×Age-0.25×FACIT-F+7.36×BSA+7.94×PsA duration+5.5×Nail Ps+0.32×BMI-3.52, namely LEI - Leeds Enthesial Index; PF - pain in the PF; patient's age; FACIT-F - fatigue scale; BSA<3%=0, ≥3%=1; PsA duration≤2 years=0, >2 years=1; presence of nail Ps=1, absence=0; ECIPsA≥28 corresponds with high PsA activity according to DAPSA≥28. ROC analysis of sensitivity and specificity of the prognostic model demonstrated high correctness of the index: the area under the ROC curve was 0.768, 95% confidence interval (0.624-0.913). CONCLUSION The new PsA activity index corresponds to the existing ones and takes into consideration the clinical heterogeneity and comorbidity of the disease.

Abstract
AIM To evaluate the detection rate of subclinical carotid atherosclerosis in rheumatoid arthritis (RA) patients with low cardiovascular risk (CVR). MATERIALS AND METHODS The study included 182 RA patients with low CVR (mSCORE<1%) and no established cardiovascular diseases and a control group comprising 100 people. Atherosclerotic lesion of the carotid arteries was assessed using Doppler ultrasound of the carotid arteries and was determined by the detection of atherosclerotic plaque (ASP) - the local increase in the thickness of the intima-media complex (IMT) >1.5 mm. RESULTS Carotid ASP were observed more frequently in RA patients with low CVR than in the control group (17% versus 8%; p=0.02). The frequency of ASP in RA patients with low CVR did not depend on the disease's stage or activity and ongoing therapy. In RA, the detection of subclinical atherosclerosis was associated with traditional risk factors: carotid ASP were detected 4 times more often in men than in women (48% versus 12%, p<0.01); carotid IMT correlated with age (R=0.46), body mass index (R=0.17), LDL-C level (R=0.20), systolic blood pressure (R=0.17); p<0.05 in all cases. According to a multivariate model, in RA, the risk of developing ASP increased in the presence of dyslipidemia (odds ratio - OR 2.97; 95% confidence interval - CI 1.36-6.49; p=0.006) and arterial hypertension (OR 2.16; 95% CI 1.03-4.54; p=0.04). In RA patients with carotid ASP, sCD40L level was associated with carotid IMT (R=0.32; p=0.04) and cholesterol concentration (R=0.39; p=0.01). CONCLUSION Subclinical atherosclerotic lesions of the carotid arteries were observed in 24% of RA patients with low cardiovascular risk and were detected almost 2 times more often than in the control group. In RA patients with low CVR, the risk of developing carotid ASP increased by 2-3 times with concomitant hypertension and dyslipidemia. The carotid IMT was associated with traditional risk factors - age, gender, lipid levels and blood pressure indicators, in cases of detection of ASP - with an immunoinflammatory marker - sCD40L.

Abstract
Background. The goal of “treat-to-target” strategy (T2T) in psoriatic arthritis (PsA) is attaining remission or minimal disease activity (MDA). The benefits of T2T are shown recently in the study TICOPA and REMARCA. But prognostic factors for achievement MDA in PsA patients (pts) at the early-stage hasn’t been studied yet.Objective – to determine the prognostic factors associated with achievement of minimal disease activity within 12 months (mo) of treatment according to T2T strategy in early psoriatic arthritis patients.Methods. 77 pts (M/F=36/41) with early PsA fulfilling the CASPAR criteria were included. Mean age 36.9±10.45 years, PsA duration 11.1±10.0 mo, psoriasis duration 82.8±92.1 mo. At baseline (BL) and at 12 mo of therapy PsA activity by tender joins count (TJC) out of 68; swelling joints count (SJC) out of 66; pain; patient global assessment disease activity (PGA) using visual analogue scale; CRP; dactylitis, enthesitis by LEI and plantar fascia; BSA; HAQ and fatigue by FACIT 4 scale were evaluated. A score FACIT <30 indicates severe fatigue, the higher the score – the better the quality of life. All pts were given therapy with Methotrexate (MTX) s/c, 29 pts with ineffectiveness of MTX after 3–9 mo of treatment were added biologic DMARDs. The one-factor model of logistic regression was used to identify a group of features that are associated with achievement MDA.Results. By 12 mo of therapy, the proportion of pts who have reached MDA (5/7) were calculated. Pts were split into 2 groups: MDA+ (n=45) and MDA– (n=32).Comparative analysis of BL features in both groups and one-factor model of logistic regression showed the following features were associated with achievement MDA: TJC and SJC<3 (p<0.001); PGA≤20 mm (p<0.001); pain≤15 mm (p<0.001); CRP≤5 mg/l (p<0.03); HAQ≤0.5 (p<0.001); FACIT>30 points (p<0.021); absent of entesitis (p<0.003), dactylitis (p<0.029) and nail damage (p<0.012). Early PsA pts with combination of these features on first visit have more chance to achieve MDA in comparison to PsA pts without them (OR=9.684 [95% CI: 4.6–20.4]).Conclusion. It is a combination of features on first visit – oligoarthritis, moderate activity, absent of entesitis, dactylitis, nail psoriasis, significant impact on function and fatigue – that constitutes a clinical prognostic factors for achievement MDA after 12 mo of treatment in pts with early PsA according T2T.

Abstract
Lupus nephritis (LN) is the leading cause of death in systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), so its early detection and treatment is of utmost importance. Features of the onset, clinical signs, certain morphological classes, as well as more aggressive therapy make it possible to assign SLE with LN to a distinct disease phenotype.Objective: to characterize the clinical, immunological and morphological features of the SLE phenotype with a predominant kidney involvement based on a comparative analysis of patients with LN and without LN.Patients and methods. The study included 400 patients with SLE who met the 2012 SLICC criteria and were hospitalized to V.A. Nasonova Research Institute of Rheumatology from 2013 to 2021. The diagnosis of LN was established in 192 (48%) patients, of which in 82 (43%) it was confirmed by pathological study of kidney biopsy specimens (the SLE group with LN). In 208 (52%) patients, no kidney damage was observed, and they constituted the SLE group without LN.All patients underwent a standard examination with an assessment of disease activity according to the SLEDAI-2K index, irreversible changes in organs according to the SLICC damage index, immunological disorders, clinical and biochemical blood tests, urinalysis according to unified methods, glomerular filtration rate, as well as pathological examination of kidney biopsy specimens for confirmation of LN in the presence of an appropriate clinical picture. In patients of both groups, a comparative study of the main clinical, laboratory, immunological manifestations of SLE, the features of the disease onset, its first clinical signs, possible trigger factors, and the drugs used was carried out.Results and discussion. In the LN group, insolation was more likely to trigger the development of SLE than in the group without LN (respectively, in 26% and 13% of cases; p=0.007). In turn, SLE without kidney damage more often than SLE with LN debuted during pregnancy or after childbirth.The first signs of the disease in almost 40% of patients with LN were proteinuria and/or changes in urinary sediment, edema, increased blood pressure, the development of LN in some cases was preceded by polyarthritis or combined lesions of the skin and joints, but no later than 6 months, signs of kidney damage appeared. In the SLE group without LN, polyarthritis (in 33%), combined lesions of the skin and joints (in 26%), and Raynaud's syndrome (in 16%; p <0.0001) were more often observed at the onset. In patients with LN, erythematous lesions of the facial skin ("butterfly", in 42%), serositis (exudative pleuritis — in 44%, pericarditis — in 46%, ascites and hydrothorax — in 5%; p<0.0001), as well as hematological disorders such as anemia (in 63%), leukopenia (in 49%) and thrombocytopenia (in 42%) were present more frequently. With the development of LN, an acute course and high activity of the disease occurred significantly more often. In the study of immunological parameters in the group without LN, lupus anticoagulant (in 6%) and antibodies to SS-A/Ro and SS-B/La (in 18 and 9% of patients, respectively) were detected significantly more often, while in the LN group — hypocomplementemia (in 81%; p<0.0001). Therapy also differed significantly: patients with LN received higher doses of glucocorticoids (p<0.0001), mycophenolate mofetil, and cyclophosphamide.Conclusion. SLE with LN can be considered a distinct disease phenotype with a set of characteristics (clinical and laboratory parameters, response to therapy, prognosis) that distinguish it from other SLE variants.

Abstract
Aim – to study 2 years outcomes of the treat-to-target (T2T) strategy in early psoriatic arthritis (ePsA) patients. Material and methods. 68 (33 male/35 female) ePsA patients according to CASPAR criteria (mean age – 37.3±10.8 years; PsA duration – 11.0±9.8 months) were included and were observed till 2 years follow-up. At baseline and every 3 months all patients underwent standard clinical examinations. All patients was given mono-therapy with Methotrexate (MTX) s/c or in combination with biological (b) DMARDs. The number of pts achieved remission (DAPSA≤4), low disease activity (LDA) (5≥DAPSA≤14), minimal disease activity (MDA) (5/7) or very low disease activity (VLDA) (7/7) at least 1 time were calculated. Analysis were performed into three groups depends on type of therapy: 1st group (19 patients) – MTX-monotherapy; 2nd group (11 patients) – combination MTX with bDMARDs; 3rd group – 25 patients who stopped taken bDMARD by the end of the follow-up. Results. By 2 years of follow-up remission by DAPSA/LDA/MDA/VLDA was seen in 51.5%/16.2%/58.8%/42.65% of patients accordingly. In the 1st/2nd groups remission by DAPSA was noted in 68.4%/90% and MDA – in 81.8%/78.9% of patients accordingly. In the 3rd group remission by DAPSA/MDA maintained in 24%/32% of patients accordingly. Conclusion. The T2T strategy is optimal management approach in more than half of the ePsA patients despite of type of treatment within 2 years . The stopped of bDMARD caused a “lost” of remission/MDA in the most of patients.

Abstract
Objective: to identify clinical and immunological variants (phenotypes) of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) using cluster analysis.Patients and methods. The study included 400 patients with diagnosis of SLE according to the 2012 SLICC classification criteria. Patients underwent laboratory and immunological workup according to accepted standards of medical care for patients with SLE, and therapy was prescribed in accordance with disease activity.Results and discussion. Among patients, most were females (ratio of men and women – 1:10), and people of young age (34.2±11.5 years), with an average duration of illness of 6 [3; 12] years. In 98 (25%) patients with SLE, the disease debuted before the age of 18 years. Lupus nephritis (LN) was detected in 192 (48%) patients, SLE with antiphospholipid syndrome (APS) – in 48 (12%), SLE with Sjцgren's syndrome – in 44 (11%). For cluster analysis 30 clinical, 4 laboratory, 12 immunological and 10 therapeutic parameters were selected and a dendrogram was constructed with the calculation of the Euclidean distance using the Ward method. As a result, five clusters of SLE were identified: with the development of LN; with predominantly extrarenal manifestations; SLE combined with APS; SLE combined with Sjцgren's syndrome; SLE with a debut in childhood (up to 18 years of age). Clusters differed in clinical, laboratory and immunological parameters, as well as in therapy.Conclusion. Cluster analysis data made it possible to group the selected signs into five clinical and immunological variants (phenotypes) of SLE. Identification of SLE phenotypes as a set of characteristics that, individually or in combination, make it possible to determine differences between patients based on clinical, laboratory and immunological parameters, variants of the onset and course of the disease, response to therapy and prognosis, will contribute to a personalized approach in choosing the therapy, improving its long-term results, as well as quality of life and prognosis in patients with SLE.

Abstract
AIM To study clinical and laboratory features of panniculitis (Pn) in modern rheumatology. MATERIALS AND METHODS The study included 690 patients with Pn (615 women and 75 men, average age 39.410.26) with the prevailing referral diagnosis of Erythema nodosum (59.2%), Pn (27.5%), Rheumatic disease Rd (9%), other diseases (4.4%),who had been on outpatient and/or inpatient treatment for 10 years. All patients were examined according to our diagnostic algorithm: general clinical, immunological and histological examinations, computed tomography of the chest organs, tuberculin tests. RESULTS Pn with Rd was diagnosed in 140 patients (118 women and 22 men, average age 40.2114.87), average disease duration 31.06 [0.1; 541] months. In most cases (49%) patients had idiopathic lobular Pn which belongs to the group of systematic lesions of connective tissue (M35.6), as well as systemic lupus erythematosus and Behcet disease (13% each), rheumatoid arthritis (8%), dermatomyositis (6.4%), etc. Matching of the referral and final diagnoses was 35% in case of Rd. Among the examined patients prevailed those with a moderate (51.07%) degree of activity of the underlying disease. Within the study group Pn was represented by all forms, but mainly by nodular form (64.02%). Mesenteric form was characteristic only for idiopathic lobular Pn. The main features of Pn associated with Rd were identified. In modern clinical practice the type of Pn and the activity of the underlying disease determine the approaches to treatment.

Abstract
AIM To assess the influence of anxiety and depressive disorders on joint destruction in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA). MATERIALS AND METHODS 128 RA-patients were included, 87% were women with a mean age of 47.411.3 years and a median of RA duration 96 [48; 228] months. At the inclusion most patients had moderate (n=56, 43.7%) and severe (n=48, 37.5%) disease activity according to DAS28. Joint destruction was classified as maximal in patients with radiographic stage III, IV and/or osteonecrosis) and minimal in patients with stage I, II and no osteonecrosis. Pain intensity was measured with the BPI (Brief Pain Inventory) scale, severity of fatigue with fatigue severity scale (FSS), clinically important fatigue was diagnosed in patients with FSS4. Anxiety and depressive disorders (ADD) were diagnosed by a licensed psychiatrist in 123 (96.1%) of RA-patients in accordance with ICD-10 in semi-structured interview. Severity of depression and anxiety was evaluated with Montgomery-Asberg Depression Rating Scale (MADRS) and Hamilton Anxiety Rating Scale (HAM-A). RA-patients with ADD were divided into the following treatment groups: 1 сDMARDs (n=39), 2 сDMARDs+PPT (sertraline or mianserine), n=43, 3 сDMARDs+bDMARDs (n=32), 4 сDMARDs+bDMARDs+PPT (sertraline or mianserine), n=9. Biologics treatment duration varied from 1 to 6 years, antidepressants from 6 to 96 weeks. 83 (67.5%) RA patients were assessed at five-years follow-up. Linear regression analysis was conducted to determine factors associated with maximal join destruction. RESULTS According to linear regression analysis, maximal joint destruction at 5 years follow-up was associated with higher baseline BPImax, longer RA and ADD duration, clinically important fatigue at baseline, baseline extraarticular RA manifestations, recurrent depressive disorder at 5-years follow-up and treatment with cDMARDs only. CONCLUSION Recurrent depressive disorder without antidepressant treatment is an important predictor of progression of joint destruction in patients with rheumatoid arthritis.

Abstract
AIM Analysis of survival on biological therapy in previously bionaive patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) during the first year of therapy in real clinical practice. MATERIALS AND METHODS The retrospective study included 204 adult patients with RA. In the hospital, patients were first prescribed therapy with various biological disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs (bDMARDs): infliximab, adalimumab, etanercept, certolizumab pegol, tocilizumab, abatacept (ABA), rituximab (RTM). Patients were divided by age in accordance with the classification adopted by WHO. Clinical forms of RA were presented: RA, seropositive for rheumatoid factor, RA, seronegative for rheumatoid factor, RA with extra-articular manifestations, adult-oneset Stills disease, juvenile RA. The reasons for the cancellation of bDMARD during the first year of treatment were: insufficient effectiveness (including primary inefficiency), adverse events, administrative reasons, clinical and laboratory remission, death. RESULTS A year after being included in the study, treatment was continued in 92 (45%) patients and was discontinued in 112 patients. The average time of treatment amounted to 0.750.33 years. The longest duration of treatment was in the RTM and ABA groups (0.920.22 and 0.830.29 years, respectively). In 56 (50%) patients, bDMARD was canceled due to insufficient effectiveness (including primary inefficiency), 28 patients (25%) due to the development of adverse reactions, 19 (17%) patients for administrative reasons, 7 (6.25%) patients due to drug remission. During the first year of therapy, there were 2 (1.75%) deaths due to severe comorbid conditions in patients, one of whom received RTM, the other tocilizumab. CONCLUSION Study showed that 45% of patients with RA continue treatment with first-time bDMARD for more than 12 months. The most common reason for discontinuation of therapy was its lack of effectiveness. The best survival rate of bDMARDs was observed in RTM and ABA. When selecting bDMARD in each case, it is necessary to take into account the continuity at all stages of treatment.

Abstract
Panniculitis is a heterogeneous group of diseases that are characterized by a subcutaneous adipose tissue (SAT) lesion and frequently occur with involvement of the musculoskeletal system and viscera in the process. This is a chronic multiple organ disease. The gold standard for its diagnosis is noted to be a morphological study. The paper presents the current classification of panniculitis. OBJECTIVE To study the morphological features of idiopathic lobular panniculitis (ILP) in accordance with the nature of the course and clinical forms of the disease. SUBJECT AND METHODS Biopsy specimens were studied in 62 patients with various clinical forms of ILP. Biopsy and surgical materials were investigated by light optical morphological methods. The results were statistically processed using a statistical analysis software Statistica Version 10 package for Windows ('StatSoft Inc.', USA). The differences were considered statistically significant at an error level of p<0.05. Methods, such as Pearson's c2 test (analysis of contingency tables), Student's t-test, Z-test for comparison of proportions, nonparametric tests, such as Mann-Whitney U-test, Kruskal-Wallis test, were used to assess the results. RESULTS The nature of the morphological parameters of the disease corresponded to the course of ILP. The acute course of the disease was characterized by the predominance of liponecrosis and inflammation concurrent with productive-destructive vasculitis. In the chronic course, there was a preponderance of lymphohistiocytic infiltrate with gigantic macrophages (lipophages) and granuloma-like structures. The above morphological changes were characteristic of the phagocytic morphological stage of node formation. The fibroplastic stage of panniculitis was absent in this study. The morphological features of the disease were shown depending on the form of idiopathic lobular panniculitis, which may be of diagnostic value in the differential diagnosis of panniculitis. CONCLUSION The pathologist must first of all pay attention to the preferential localization of pathological changes (in the SAT septa or slices), the presence or absence of vasculitis and the nature of the infiltrate. The skin in panniculitis is typically intact or has minimal changes following the pattern seen in reactive ones. Panniculitis shows an undulatory course, and therefore all signs of this disease are present in biopsy specimens; however, morphological signs of the acute inflammatory, lipophagic or fibroplastic stage of the disease predominate depending on the stage and activity of the process.

Abstract
The aim of the study was to analyze the factors affecting chronic pain in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA). MATERIALS AND METHODS 128 patients with reliable diagnosis of RA [111 (86.7%) women and 17 (13.3%) men] were examined. The mean age of patients was 47.4±11.3 years, the median duration of the disease was 96 [48; 228] months. When included in the study in most patients, the activity of RA in DAS28 was moderate (n=56; 43.7%) or high (n=48; 37.5%). BPI (Brief Pain Inventory) scale was used to determine the severity of pain and its impact on various aspects of life. The anxiety - depressive spectrum disorders (ADDs) were diagnosed by psychiatrist during a semistructured interview according to ICD-10 criteria in 123 (96.1%) patients. The severity of depression was determined by the Montgomery-Asberg depression rating scale, anxiety - by Hamilton anxiety scale. For the diagnosis of cognitive impairment used clinical and psychological techniques. Psychopharmacotherapy (PPhT) by antidepressants or anxiolytics is offered to all patients with ADDs, 52 of them agreed to treatment, 71 patients refused. The next groups selected depending on the therapy: 1st - with conventional disease - modifying antirheumatic drugs (cDMARDs; n=39), 2nd - with cDMARDs+PPhT (n=43), 3d - with cDMARDs + biologic (b) DMARDs (n=32), 4th - with cDMARD+bDMARDs+PPhT (n=9). The dynamics of ADDs and outcomes of RA in 5 years were evaluated in 83 (67.5%) patients. RESULTS When included in the study, 94 (75.2%) patients with RA had moderate and severe pain. According to the regression analysis, the maximum intensity pain in BPImax after 5 years of follow - up associated not the only factors connected with RA - high DAS28, the serum level of C-reactive protein, the degree of radiological stage and functional insufficiency, duration of RA and a lesser duration of glucocorticoids intake, but also with continuing depressive episodes in the framework of recurrent depression and the initial presence of cognitive impairment. The severity of pain after 5 years of follow - up was higher in RA patients receiving only сDMARDs, without the use of bDMARDs and in the absence of PPhT associated with ADDs. CONCLUSION Depressive episode within recurrent major depression is a significant factor in the chronicity of pain in patients with RA. Timely effective PPhT of depression, selected taking into account depression structure and personal characteristics of the patient, leads to a steady decrease in the severity of pain in patients with RA.

Abstract
AIM To present clinical and laboratory characteristics of various forms of idiopatic lobular panniculitis (ILP) in modern rheumatology practice. MATERIALS AND METHODS The study included 67 people (58 women and 9 men aged 20 to 76) with the referral diagnosis of "Erythema nodosa? Undifferentiated panniculitis?" in 76.2% of cases with a median disease duration of 78.91 [48; 540] months observed in the V.A. Nasonova Research Institute of Rheumatology. In 2007-2017 in addition to general clinical examination immunological, histological and immunohistochemical studies, computed tomography (CT) of the chest organs and tuberculin tests were performed. RESULTS Analysis of clinical manifestations allowed to distinguish four forms of ILP: nodular (n=30), plaque (n=10), infiltrative (n=15) and mesentric (n=12). The minimum median duration of the disease was detected in plaque form (8 [5; 11.5] months), while the median duration in case of infitrative form was 8.25 times longer (66 [36; 102] months, p38 °C and a small number (up to 5) of drain nodes; infiltrative - fever >38 °C, ulceration of nodes with the expiration of oily mass and scarring; mesenteric - pain in the abdominal area, the number of nodes less than 5 and the abdominal cavity CT results (inflammation of the adiopose tissue of the intestinal mesentery, omentum, adipose tissue of the pre - and retroperitoneal areas). CONCLUSION The forms and activity of the disease determine the approaches to treatment in modern clinical practice. There is an obvious need to expand knowledge about this pathology among doctors and conduct further research in order to timely diagnose and search for the most effective methods of ILP treatment.

Abstract
The response rate to therapy for rheumatoid arthritis (RA) rarely exceeds 60%. Mental disorders (MDs) of the anxiety-depressive spectrum (ADS) and cognitive impairment (CI) substantially affect the evaluation of the efficiency of RA therapy. Adequate psychopharmacotherapy is one of the possible approaches to optimizing the treatment of RA. The factors influencing the efficiency of RA therapy with standard disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs (DMARDs) and biological agents (BAs) in combination with adequate psychopharmacotherapy have not been previously identified. Objective: to determine the predictors of response to therapy in patients with RA receiving DMARDs and BAs with or without adequate psychopharmacotherapy for ADS disorders. Subjects and methods. The investigation included 128 patients (13% men and 87% women) with a reliable diagnosis of RA. At baseline, 75.1% of patients received DMARDs; 7.8% – BAs. ADS disorders were detected in 123 (96.1%) patients. Psychopharmacotherapy was offered to all the patients with MDs; 52 patients agreed to treatment and 71 refused. The following therapeutic groups were identified according to the performed therapy: 1) DMARDs (n = 39); 2) DMARDs + psychopharmacotherapy (n = 43); 3) DMARDs + BAs (n = 32); 4) DMARDs + BAs + psychopharmacotherapy (n = 9). The changes of MDs symptoms and the outcomes of RA were assessed in 83 (67.5%) patients at five-year follow-up. The efficiency of RA therapy was evaluated with DAS28 (EULAR criteria). Predictors of response to therapy were determined using linear regression modeling. Results and discussion. At 5 years, 22 (26.5%) and 37 (44.6%) patients were recorded to show good and moderate responses to therapy, respectively; 24 (28.9%) patients were non-respondents. The linear regression model included 14 factors (p<0.001). The high values of DAS28 (β=0.258) at the inclusion; belonging to therapeutic groups 2 (β=0.267), 3 (β=0.235), and 4 (β=0.210), the absence of diabetes mellitus (β=-0.230), and experience in using glucocorticoids (β=-0.230) were associated with a high likelihood of response to therapy; high body mass index (β=-0.200) and long RA duration (β=-0,181), a high level of rheumatoid factor (β=-0.176), a history of myocardial infarction (β=-0.153), schizotypic disorder (β=-0.132), and extra-articular manifestations of RA (β=-0.106), and older age (β=-0.102) were related to a low probability of response. The area under the ROC curve for the model was 0.99 (p><0.001). Conclusion. BA therapy and psychopharmacotherapy, along with younger age, shorter duration and high activity of RA, a low level of rheumatoid factor, lower body mass index, the absence of diabetes mellitus, myocardial infarction, and extra-articular manifestations of RA in the history, schizotypic disorder, and experience in using glucocorticoids are associated with a greater likelihood of a good and moderate treatment response.

Abstract
AIM The study of the course and outcomes of panniculitis (PN) in modern rheumatology practice. MATERIALS AND METHODS We observed 209 patients (pts) (f-185, m-24 in age 17 to 80 years) with the input diagnosis "Erythema nodosum? Undifferentiated panniculitis?" and duration of illness in from 1 week to 25 years, observed in V.A. Nasonova Research Institute of Rheumatology in 2009-2016 years. Along with the general clinical examination, serological, immunological histological and immunohistochemical studies, CT scan of the chest, Doppler (Doppler ultrasound) of the veins of the lower extremities, tuberculin tests and consultations with doctors of other specialties were conducted. Outcomes were assessed after 1-6 years. RESULTS In 23 pts a secondary character of PN was identified and discovered non-rheumatic underlying disease. Of the remaining 186 cases, the most frequent were pts with erythema nodosum (EN) (n=121), lipodermatosclerosis (LDS) (n=38) and panniculitis of Weber-Christian (PWCh)(n=18). For EN average age (AA) amounted to 38.9±12.6 years, the nodes the nodes were located symmetrically in 93% of cases on all surfaces of the lower and upper extremities (LUE). For LDS AA of the pts was 54±13 years, 68% of the pts noted the increase in the average body mass index (BMI), 79% - showed signs of chronic venous insufficiency (CVI). In 60% of the pts the items were located asymmetrically, localized mainly in the medial (92%) of the surface of the tibia (s). For PWCh AA amounted to 48.4 ± 17.6 years, seals were located on all surfaces of LUE and in 14 cases - on the trunk. CONCLUSION To clarify the nature of PN it is necessary to conduct a comprehensive survey. The EN is characterized by symmetric defeat of all surfaces LUE more common in people of young age. A distinctive feature of LDS is asymmetrical lesions of the lower extremities in patients with increased BMI and signs of CVI. For PWCh seals are often localized on the trunk.

Abstract
AIM To determine risk factors for severe cardiovascular (CV) events (CVEs) in male patients with crystal-verified gout. SUBJECTS AND METHODS 251 male patients with crystal-verified gout were prospectively followed up in 2003 to 2013. The mean follow-up period was 6.9±2.0 years. New severe CVE cases and deaths were recorded. Logistic regression was used to analyze the impact of traditional and other risk factors and allopurinol use on the risk for severe CVEs. RESULTS 32 patients died during the follow-up period. Severe CVEs were recorded in 58 (23.1%) patients; CVE deaths were notified in 22 (8.8%) patients. The risk of all severe CVEs was high for hypertension, increased serum high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP) level (>5 mg/l), ≥ stage III chronic kidney disease (CKD) (glomerular filtration rate, <60 ml/min/1.73 m2), alcohol intake (>20 g/day), coronary heart disease (CHD), and a family history of premature CHD. The risk of fatal CVEs was highest for elevated serum hs-CRP level, ≥ stage III CKD, a family history of premature CHD, hypercholesterolemia, upper quartile of serum uric acid levels (>552 µmol/l), and regular intake of allopurinol. CONCLUSION In addition to the traditional risk factors of CV catastrophes, the presence of chronic inflammation and the impact of high serum uric acid levels may explain the high frequency of CV catastrophes.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE to elucidate hemodynamic predictors of clinical deterioration (CD) in patients with pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) associated with systemic scleroderma (SSD). MATERIAL AND METHODS We included into this study 48 patients with PAH-SSD consecutively admitted in 2004-2014. At inclusion all patients underwent right heart catheterization (RHC) and thereafter were under dynamic observation. CD deterioration was diagnosed in the presence of the following: >15% decline in 6-minute walk test distance; worsening of PAH functional class; intensification of symptoms of right ventricular failure; necessity in administration of parenteral diuretics. RHC was used for confirmation of CD. Relative risk (RR) of events was calculated for identification of significant predictors of CD. Cut points were determined with the help of construction of characteristic curves, statistical significance was estimated in Kaplan-Meier analysis. RESULTS During follow-up (duration 46 [23;91] months) 21 patients had 24 CDs confirmed by RHC. Calculation of RR identified a number of hemodynamic parameters related to CD development. ROC analysis confirmed significance of initial right atrial pressure (RAP) 6.5 mm Hg (95% confidence interval [CI] 0.59-0.89, sensitivity 71%, specificity 63%, p<0.004) and dynamics of pulmonary vascular resistance (PVR) -1.06 Wood units (95%CI 0.790.99; sensitivity 76%, specificity 80%, <0.0001). Kaplan-Meier analysis revealed significant differences in times to CD (median 31.5 and 10 months in patients with RAP <6.5 and more or equal 6.5 mm Hg, respectively, p=0.01; 37 and 17months in patients with PVR lowering >1.06 Wood units and no PVR lowering, respectively, p=0.009. CONCLUSION We identified prognostic levels of key hemodynamic predictors of CD in patients with SSD and PAH (RAP 6.5 mm Hg, PVR - 1. 06 Wood units) which can be used for individualization and optimization of therapy.

Abstract
AIM To describe hemodynamic and clinical changes in patients with elevated mean pulmonary artery pressure (MPAP) > 30 mm Hg during exercise and the impact of bosentan therapy on stress-induced pulmonary hypertension (SIPH). SUBJECTS AND METHODS The study included 19 patients with systemic sclerosis (SDS) in whom possible causes of pulmonary hypertension (PH) (lung and left heart injuries and thromboembolism) were excluded. All the patients underwent pulmonary artery catheterization at rest and during exercise. The hemodynamic (right atrial pressure (RAP), systolic and diastolic pressure, MPAP, pulmonary artery wedge pressure (PAWP), cardiac output (CO) by a thermodilution technique), clinical (demographic, immunological, and instrumental) parameters were analyzed and the risk of pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) was also calculated; 5 patients with SIPH received 16-week bosentan therapy according to the conventional regimen. RESULTS Ten of the 19 patients were at increased risk for PAH in accordance with the DETECT scale, but no signs of PH at resting catheterization were found in anybody. In 5 patients, MPAP, was in the range from 21 to 24 mm Hg; in 9 (47%) patients were found to have SIPH, a median MPAP of 35 (32; 41) mm Hg. Seven patients had no diagnostic changes during exercise; 3 patients could not perform an exercise test. There were correlations between MPAP and DETECT risk scores (p < 0.05). The patients with SIPH had significantly higher levels of resting MPAP and exercise pulmonary vascular resistance (PVR) and PAWP. The calculated DETECT risk was significantly higher in the SIPH group. The level of uric acid was also higher in the SIPH group (p < 0.05). There were no changes in NT-proBNP levels, telangiectasias and anti-centromere antibodies, and EchoCG and lung test results. During 16-week bosentan therapy, there was a significant decrease in MPAP and transpulmonary gradient during exercise, but PVR, MPAP/CO ratio and NT-proBNP levels tended to decrease. CONCLUSION In the patients with SDS, SIPH may be a stage of pulmonary vasculopathy that precedes the development of clinical PAH. The use of current PAH-specific drugs used at the preclinical stage of the disease may substantially improve lifetime prognosis in patients with SDS-associated PAH.

Abstract
The spinal pain syndrome appears in cosmonauts on both short and long-duration missions. This untoward factor may affect body systems functioning and complicate the successful accomplishment of space mission. Purpose of the investigation was to examine the lumbar spine and to elucidate whether its condition relates to the spinal pain development and changes in heart rate variability (HRV) in the microgravity environment. The experiment was conducted in dry immersion as a method of microgravity effects simulation. It was shown that in dry immersion locomotion reproduces the patterns peculiar for significant gravitational unloading. Spinal pain intensity, angles and heights of the lumbar intervertebral discs and HRV were measured in 19 selected volunteers. During the experiment, all the volunteers developed pains in the back that abated gradually. Pain dependence on the height of intervertebral discs and cardiac regulatory mechanisms were investigated.

Abstract
UNLABELLED DAS28 index calculated with regard for ESR, the number of swollen/painful joints and evaluation of the patient's condition by VAS is universally used to estimate activity of rheumatoid arthritis (RA). There is a variant of calculation using C-reactive protein (CRP) instead of ESR. Our experience indicates that ESR decreases more slowly than CRP during treatment and better reflects dynamics of patients' condition. From the practical standpoint it is important to estimate activity of RA because therapeutic modalities are chosen based on the DAS28 value. AIM To study the influence of pharmaceutical form of methotrexate on the acute-phase response in rheumatoid arthritis. MATERIALS AND METHODS The study included 32 patients (24 women, 8 men) aged 19-76 (mean 47.5 +/- 28.5) yr with active RA (DAS28 > 3.2) 4-30 months (11.5 +/- 7.4, median 8) in duration. Diagnosis was made using AXR criteria (1987), none of the patients previously received methotrexate injections. Inclusion criteria: initially high ESR (Westegren, mm/hr) and/or CRP (mg/l measured by a highly sensitive method). All patients were given methotrexate subcutaneously for 12 weeks as monotherapy (initial dose 10 mg, maximum one 25 mg/week). The cumulative dose was 211.36 +/- 17.2 mg. RESULTS Side effects did not require withdrawal of methotrexate. CRP level decreased faster than ERS: a 70% decrease of CRP by week 12 was recorded more frequently than that of ESR. Slow dynamics of the number of swollen joints compared with CRP may be due to the low cumulative dose of methotrexate. Duration of the disease had no effect on dynamics of acute phase characteristics. CONCLUSION Methotrexate injections resulted in markedly delayed development of clinical signs of improvement compared with laboratory values. CFP levels fell down much faster than ESR, Remission or low activity of RA (estimated from DAS28) occurred only in 38% of the cases after 3 month monotherapy by methotrexate injections. It is concluded that efficacy of this drug should be estimated no sooner than 4 months after the onset of the treatment.

Abstract
AIM To evaluate the short-term efficacy of the nonselective endothelin receptor antagonist bosentan in the treatment of pulmonary hypertension (PH) associated with diffuse connective tissue diseases (CTD), as well as its effect on survival in both monotherapy and in combination with other PH-specific agents. SUBJECTS AND METHODS The study included 20 CDT-associated PH patients who had been hospitalized in 2009-2013. All the patients had valid diagnoses of scleroderma systematica (SDS) (n = 18) or systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) (n = 2). Bosentan was given in an initial dose of 62.5 mg/day twice for 4 weeks, then 125 mg/day twice. RESULTS Eighteen patents completed therapy at 16 weeks. One patient with Functional Class (FC) IV PH associated with SDS died after 10 weeks of treatment because of PH progression; bosentan was discontinued in another patient following 4 weeks because of the enhanced activity of transaminases. The patients who had completed the investigation showed a significant FC decrease (from 2.9 +/- 1.0 to 2.4 +/- 1.0 following 16 weeks; p = 0.03), an increase in 6-minute walking distance (from 298 +/- 140 to 375 +/- 94 m; p < 0.002), a significant reduction in mean pulmonary artery pressure (from 48.2 +/- 15.0 to 42.8 +/- 12.0 mm Hg; p = 0.002), and pulmonary vascular resistance (PVR) (from 819 +/- 539 to 529 +/- 220 din/sec/cm(-5); p = 0.003). Right atrial pressure fell from 9.8 +/- 7.0 to 8.8 +/- 7.0 mm Hg; however, the changes were insignificant. There was a significant rise in cardiac index from 2.64 +/- 0.95 to 3.26 +/- 0.75 l/min/m2 (p = 0.005) and a significant decrease in uric acid levels from 562 +/- 254 to 469 +/- 194 micromol/l (p = 0.006). Overall 1-, 3-, and 5-year survival rates in patients with PH in the presence of CTD from PH onset were 100, 93, and 72%, respectively, in their treatment with endothelin receptor antagonists and differed significantly from the historical control group (87, 30, and 4%, respectively) when PH-specific therapy was unavailable. CONCLUSION The survival of the bosentan-treated patients with SDS and PH becomes similar to that in the patients with classical SDS. Analysis of the findings revealed the association of survival with lower PVR at 16 weeks of bosentan therapy, which is indicative of the need for hemodynamic monitoring of therapeutic effectiveness.

Abstract
AIM To obtain information on and to study an association between the erosive and destructive changes in the hand and foot joints, bone mineral density (BMD) in different parts of the skeleton and the X-ray alterations in the thoracic and lumbar vertebrae of patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA). SUBJECTS AND METHODS The investigation enrolled 66 women with a valid RA diagnosis, whose mean age was 51.6 +/- 9.6 years and the disease duration was 13.2 +/- 9.1 years. All the patients underwent clinical, laboratory, and X-ray studies assessing the progression of joint changes by the Sharp/van der Heijde method and estimating the vertebral body deformity index by the Genant technique, and BMD in 3 skeletal regions by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry employing a Holovic Discovery A device. RESULTS With X-ray higher-stage RA and higher Sharp total scores, regardless of age, there was a decrease in BMD in all skeletal areas and an increase in the number of patients with deformities of vertebrae and osteoporosis (OP) in at least one of the analyzed skeletal part. Thus, OP was found in 29% of the patients with Stages I and II RA and in 65% of those with Stages IV; deformities of vertebrae were in 12 and 22%, respectively. Comparative analysis of BMD and erosive and destructive changes in the patient groups different in age at onset of the disease has established that its young onset (from 16 to 30 years) and long duration have a negative effect on bone status. Femoral neck BMD in these patients is significantly lower than that in patients who were ill at older age (31-50 or over 50 years) (0.661 +/- 0.080, 0.739 +/- 0.111, and 0.713 +/- 0.120 g/cm2, respectively) and the Sharp total score was higher (181.1 +/- 91.3, 100.5 +/- 71.5 and 103.9 +/- 74.5, respectively). The patients' mean age in these groups at the study inclusion was 46.7 +/- 12.1, 51.9 +/- 6.7, and 60.3 +/- 3.3 years, respectively. CONCLUSION With the longer disease duration, regardless of the age of patients with RA, there are increases in both Sharp total scores, X-ray RA stage, and the number of patients with OP, deformities of thoracic and lumbar vertebrae (however, there is no evidence of significant differences), BMD decrease in all skeletal parts.

Abstract
To reveal the prenosological changes occurred in soldiers' organism the dynamics of blood indices (laboratory-and-clinical method) and physiological system parameters (computer express reflexodiagnostics-programme "Diacoms") were studied. 192 soldiers serving for the fixed period were investigated; the mean age is 20.0 +/- 1.7. The season oscillations of insulin, cortizol, immunoglobulin M, adrenoreactivity levels were detected. The IgG increased level was observed in 38% soldiers and the increased circulating immune complexes--in 56%. The decrease in insulin secretion was also noted. Soldiers born in Moscow and those who were born in other places had different blood indices. Strain of blood indices was accompanied by the decrease in common functional state. The persons with uric acid increased level appeared to be more adapted to chronic stress situation. The results obtained show the necessity to correct the mentioned functional states in order to prevent the pathology development.
