Abstract
OBJECTIVES Osimertinib is a standard treatment for patients with EGFR-mutant non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and is highly effective for brain metastases (BMs). However, it is unclear whether local treatment (LT) for BMs prior to osimertinib administration improves survival in EGFR-mutant NSCLC. We aimed to reveal the survival benefit of upfront local treatment (LT) for BMs in patients treated with osimertinib. MATERIALS AND METHODS This multicenter retrospective study included consecutive patients with EGFR mutation (19del or L858R)-positive NSCLC who had BMs before osimertinib initiation between August 2018 and October 2021. We compared overall survival (OS) and central nervous system progression-free survival (CNS-PFS) between patients who received upfront LT for BMs (the upfront LT group), and patients who received osimertinib only (the osimertinib-alone group). Inverse-probability treatment weighting (IPTW) analysis was performed to adjust for potential confounding factors. RESULTS Of the 121 patients analyzed, 57 and 64 patients had 19del and L858R, respectively. Forty-five and 76 patients were included in the upfront LT group and the osimertinib-alone groups, respectively. IPTW-adjusted Kaplan-Meier curves showed that the OS of the upfront LT group was significantly longer than that of the osimertinib-alone group (median, 95 % confidence intervals [95 %CI]: Not reached [NR], NR-NR vs. 31.2, 21.7-33.2; p = 0.021). The hazard ratio (HR) for OS and CNS-PFS was 0.37 (95 %CI, 0.16-0.87) and 0.36 (95 %CI, 0.15-0.87), respectively. CONCLUSIONS The OS and CNS-PFS of patients who received upfront LT for BMs followed by osimertinib were significantly longer than those of patients who received osimertinib alone. Upfront LT for BMs may be beneficial in patients with EGFR-mutant NSCLC treated with osimertinib.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The data on bosentan were lacking for the treatment of exercise-induced elevation of pulmonary artery pressure (eePAP) or less severe PH in COPD. This study was conducted to investigate long-term efficacy and safety of bosentan for the treatment of eePAP or less severe PH in COPD. METHODS COPD patients diagnosed at this hospital as having COPD (WHO functional class II, III or IV) with eePAP or less severe PH whose respiratory symptoms were stable but remained and gradually progressed even after COPD therapy were randomly assigned in a 1:1 ratio to receive either bosentan or no PH treatment for two years and assessed at baseline and every 6 months for respiratory failure, activities of daily living (ADL), lung and heart functions by right heart catheterization (RHC), and other parameters. RESULTS A total of 29 patients who underwent RHC for detail examination were enrolled in the current study between August 2010 and October 2018.No death occurred in drug-treated group (n = 14) for 2 years; 5 patients died in untreated group (n = 15). Significant differences were noted between the 2 group in hospital-free survival (686.00 ± 55.87 days vs. 499.94 ± 53.27 days; hazard ratio [HR], 0.18; P = 0.026) and overall survival (727 days vs. 516.36 ± 55.38 days; HR, 0.095; P = 0.030) in all causes of death analysis, but not in overall survival in analysis of respiratory-related death. Bosentan was not associated with increased adverse events including requiring O2 inhalation. CONCLUSIONS This study suggested that the prognosis for COPD patients with eePAP or less severe PH presenting with respiratory symptoms was very poor and that bosentan tended to improve their prognosis and suppress ADL deterioration without worsening respiratory failure. TRIAL REGISTRATION This study was registered with UMIN-CTR Clinical Trial as UMIN000004749 . First trial registration at 18/12/2010.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Rechallenge with platinum-combination chemotherapy in patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) after disease progression on platinum-combination chemotherapy occasionally leads to a favorable response. The efficacy and safety of platinum-combination chemotherapy with or without immune-checkpoint inhibitor (ICI) for patients with recurrent NSCLC after surgery followed by adjuvant platinum-doublet chemotherapy remains uncertain. METHODS Patients who relapsed after surgery plus adjuvant platinum-doublet chemotherapy and received platinum-combination chemotherapy with or without ICI between April 2011 and March 2021 at four Nippon Medical School hospitals were retrospectively analyzed. RESULTS Among 177 patients who received adjuvant platinum-doublet chemotherapy after surgery, a total of 30 patients who received platinum-combination rechemotherapy with or without ICI after relapse were included in this study. Seven patients received ICI-combined chemotherapy. The median disease-free survival (DFS) after surgery was 13.6 months. The objective response rate and disease-control rate were 46.7% and 80.0%, respectively. The median progression-free survival and overall survival were 10.2 and 37.5 months, respectively. Patients with longer DFS (≥12 months) had a better prognosis than others. The most common grade ≥3 toxicity associated with this treatment was neutropenia (33%). Grade ≥3 immune-related adverse events were pneumonitis (14%) and colitis (14%). Treatment-related deaths did not occur in this study. CONCLUSION Platinum-combination chemotherapy with or without ICI for patients with postoperative recurrent NSCLC who previously received adjuvant platinum-doublet chemotherapy was effective and safe. In particular, this therapy may be promising for patients with longer DFS.

Abstract
We present a case of a drug-induced sarcoidosis-like reaction (DISR) in a 34-year-old female patient who had been receiving dupilumab for eosinophilic rhinosinusitis, for seven months. Computerized tomography scans revealed multiple lymphadenopathies, and biopsies performed on the lung and skin lesions showed the presence of non-caseating granulomas. The patient's serum levels of soluble interleukin-2 receptor and angiotensin-converting enzyme were elevated. There were no findings of Mycobacterium spp, or any other bacterial infections. Based on these findings, it was suspected that the sarcoidosis-like reaction observed in this patient was caused by dupilumab. Switching the patient's treatment from dupilumab to mepolizumab improved the DISR.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The hospitalisation rate for work-related injuries among older workers is double that of younger workers; however, the risk factors for same-level fall fractures sustained during industrial accidents remain unclear. This study aimed to estimate the influence of worker age, time of day and weather conditions on the risk of same-level fall fractures in all industrial sectors in Japan. STUDY DESIGN This was a cross-sectional study. METHODS This study used the population-based national open database of worker death and injury reports in Japan. In total, 34,580 reports of occupational same-level falls between 2012 and 2016 were used in this study. Multiple logistic regression analysis was performed. RESULTS In primary industries, workers aged ≥55 years had a 1.684 times greater risk of fracture (95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.167-2.430) compared with workers aged ≤54 years. In tertiary industries, relative to the odds ratio (OR) of injuries recorded at 0:00-2:59 a.m., the ORs recorded at 6:00-8:59 p.m., 6:00-8:59 a.m., 9:00-11:59 p.m. and 0:00-2:59 p.m. were 1.516 (95% CI: 1.202, 1.912), 1.502 (95% CI: 1.203-1.876), 1.348 (95% CI: 1.043-1.741) and 1.295 (95% CI: 1.039-1.614), respectively. The risk of fracture increased with a 1-day increase in the number of snowfall days were per month in secondary (OR = 1.056, 95% CI: 1.011-1.103) and tertiary (OR = 1.034, 95% CI: 1.009-1.061) industries. The risk of fracture decreased with every 1-degree increase in the lowest temperature in primary (OR = 0.967, 95% CI: 0.935-0.999) and tertiary (OR = 0.993, 95% CI: 0.988-0.999) industries. CONCLUSIONS With the increasing number of older workers and changing environmental conditions, the risk of falls in the tertiary sector industries is increasing, particularly just before and just after shift change hours. These risks may be associated with environmental obstacles during work migration. It is also important to consider the weather-associated risks of fracture.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Platinum-based combination therapy plus a programmed cell death 1/programmed cell death ligand 1 (PD-1/PD-L1) inhibitor is a standard treatment for patients with stage IV non-small cell lung cancer. However, necitumumab is used with gemcitabine and cisplatin as a first-line treatment option for squamous cell lung cancer (SqCLC). Furthermore, the combination of necitumumab with immune checkpoint inhibitors has the potential to enhance tumor immunity and improve the therapeutic effect. Thus, we planned and initiated this phase I/II study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of necitumumab plus pembrolizumab, nanoparticle albumin-bound (nab)-paclitaxel), and carboplatin therapy for patients with previously untreated SqCLC. PATIENTS AND METHODS In phase I, the primary endpoint is the tolerability and recommended dose of necitumumab combined with pembrolizumab plus nab-paclitaxel and carboplatin. In phase II, the primary endpoint is the overall response rate. Secondary endpoints are disease control rate, progression-free survival, overall survival, and safety. Forty-two patients will be enrolled in phase II. CONCLUSION This is the first study to investigate the efficacy and safety of necitumumab plus pembrolizumab combined with platinum-based chemotherapy in patients with previously untreated SqCLC.

Abstract
UNLABELLED We examined the effects of the coordinator-based intervention on quality of life (QOL) in the aftermath of a fragility fracture, as well as factors predictive of post-fracture QOL. The coordinator-based interventions mitigated the decrease in QOL. Secondary fracture after primary fracture, however, was a significant predictor of lower QOL. PURPOSE This study aimed to determine the effects of the coordinator-based intervention on QOL in the aftermath of a fragility fracture, as well as factors predictive of post-fracture QOL, in an Asian population. METHODS Patients with new fractures in the intervention group received the coordinator-based intervention by a designated nurse certified as a coordinator, within 3 months of injury. QOL was evaluated using the Japanese version of the EuroQol 5 Dimension 5 Level (EQ-5D-5L) scale before the fracture (through patient recollections) and at 0.5, 1, and 2 years after the primary fracture. RESULTS Data for 141 patients were analyzed: 70 in the liaison intervention (LI) group and 71 in the non-LI group. Significant intervention effects on QOL were observed at 6 months after the fracture; the QOL score was 0.079 points higher in the LI group than in the non-LI group (p=0.019). Further, the LI group reported significantly less pain/discomfort at 2 years after the fracture, compared to the non-LI group (p=0.037). In addition, secondary fractures were found to significantly prevent improvement and maintenance of QOL during the recovery period (p=0.015). CONCLUSION Short-term intervention effects were observable 6 months after the primary fracture, with the LI group mitigated the decrease in QOL. Few patients in the LI group reported pain/discomfort 2 years after the fracture, but there is uncertainty regarding its clinical significance. Secondary fracture after initial injury was a significant predictor of lower QOL after a fracture.

Abstract
BackgroundRecently, the disease activity of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) was improved due to the ‘treat-to-target’ strategy. However, some patients remain various symptoms despite recommended treatment was performed. Then, the term of ‘difficult-to-treat RA (D2TRA)’ is widely recognized. Janus kinase inhibitor (JAKi) might be effective for D2TRA patients, because JAKi can simultaneously block the function of multiple cytokines.ObjectivesThe aim of this study was to evaluate drug retention rate and effectiveness of JAKi in patients with D2TRA.MethodsThis study included 220 RA patients (tofacitinib 101, baricitinib 83, upadacitinib 20, peficitinib 14, filgotinib 2) treated with JAKi. Sixty-two patients were treated as first line bDMARDs/JAKi (1st group), 57 patients were treated as second line bDMARDs/ JAKi (2nd group), 101 patients were treated as third and more bDMARDs/ JAKi. In these 101 patients, 25 patients did not met D2TRA criteria (non-D2TRA group) and 76 patients met D2TRA criteria (D2TRA group). Drug retention rate and effectiveness of JAKi were evaluated during 24 weeks in each group.ResultsUsage rate of methotrexate was lower and dosage of glucocorticoid was higher in D2TRA group than in other groups (Table 1). Drug retention rate at 24 weeks was 87.1% (54/62) in 1st group, 80.1% (46/57) in 2nd group, 88% (22/25) in non-D2TRA group, 61.8% (47/76) in D2TRA group. Drug retention rate was lower in D2TRA group compared to 1st group, 2nd group and non-DT2RA group (p<0.01, p=0.03, p=0.01). DAS28-CRP was 4.4, 4.0, 3.9, 4.4 at baseline, 3.0, 3.0, 3.3, 3.5 at 4 weeks, 2.5, 2.9, 2.7, 3.3 at 12 weeks, 2.5, 3.0, 2.9, 3.2 at 24 weeks in 1st group, 2nd group, non-D2TRA group and D2TRA group, respectively. Improvement ratio of DAS28-CRP was 32.9, 27.6, 20.4, 19.3 % at 4 weeks, 40.8, 26.5, 28.1, 19.5 % at 12 weeks, 40.8, 24.6, 18.7, 24.7 % at 24 weeks. DAS28-CRP was improved in all groups. Altough 1st group showed higher improvement ratio of DAS28-CRP at 24 weeks compared to 2nd group, non-DT2RA group and D2TRA group (p<0.01, p<0.01, p<0.01), there was no differences between DT2RA group and 2nd group or non-D2TRA group (p=0.95, p=0.48). SDAI was 22.9, 19.9, 18.3, 23.9 at baseline, 11.8, 11.9, 13.3, 14.4 at 4 weeks, 7.9, 11.3, 8.4, 13.3 at 12 weeks, 8.5, 11.5, 9.7, 12.6 at 24 weeks.

Abstract
BackgroundThe treatment option including biological DMARDs (BIO) and JAK inhibitor (JAK) was expanded, and the number of patients reached to the treatment target are increasing in rheumatoid arthritis (RA). On the other hand, it is also true that some patients are still using prednisolone (PSL). Recently, ultrasound has played a role of sensitive imaging modality in the diagnosis and follow-up of patients with RA. It is known that residual synovitis was found in ultrasound even in patients with clinical remission.ObjectivesWe investigated the differences of ultrasonographic intra-articular synovitis findings between treatment drugs in patients with RA.MethodsFrom January 2017 to August 2020, 750 RA patients who underwent ultrasound examination were included. A US examination was performed at the bilateral first to fifth metacarpophalangeal (MCP) joints, first interphalangeal (IP) and second to fifth proximal interphalangeal (PIP) joints, wrist joints (three part of radial, medial and ulnar) and first to fifth metatarsophalangeal (MTP) joints, by using HI VISION Ascendus (Hitachi Medical Corporation, Japan) with a multifrequency linear transducer (18-6 MHz). The gray scale and power Doppler findings were assessed by the semi-quantitative method (0-3). All patients were divided into with or without BIO / JAK, methotrexate (MTX) and PSL. Then, patients were matched using the propensity score adjusted for gender, age, RA disease duration, disease activity, CRP value, and MMP-3 value. The total gray scale and power Doppler score (GSUS / PDUS) were compared between treatment drugs of RA by using propensity score matching methods.ResultsThe average age of 750 RA patients were 64.5 years and an average disease duration of RA was 13.9 years and females were 581 (77.5%). There were 517 patients (68.9%) treated with BIO/JAK and 233 patients treated without BIO/JAK. The 205 patients in each group were matched. GSUS were 10.6±11.1 vs 9.2±10.4 (p=0.218) and PDUS 7.4±9.2 vs 6.5±9.0 (p=0.328). Ultrasound residual synovitis was not different between with or without BIO/JAK in matched patients. There were 525 patients (70.0%) treated MTX, the average MTX dose was 9.3 mg, and 225 patients treated without MTX. The 203 patients with or without MTX in each group were matched. GSUS were 9.7±10.6 vs 11.4±12.0 (p=0.119) and PDUS 6.6±8.8 vs 8.1±10.1 (p=0.117). Ultrasound residual synovitis was not different between with or without MTX in matched patients. There were 111 patients (14.8%) treated PSL, the average dose was 4.0mg, and 639 patients treated without PSL. The 105 patients with or without PSL in each group were matched. GSUS were 15.7±13.9 vs 11.6±10.6 (p=0.018) and PDUS 11.5±11.4 vs 8.1±9.6 (p=0.021). Ultrasound residual synovitis was more severe treated with PSL than without PSL in matched patients.ConclusionIn a comparison between RA patients matched backgrounds such as disease activity, there was no difference in ultrasound residual synovitis between patients with or without BIO/JAK and MTX. However, there was significant difference in patients with or without PSL. This suggests that PSL use suppresses clinical symptoms but does not improve synovitis. Thus, it should be noted that joint destruction may progress in patients treating with PSL.References[1]Grassi W, Okano T, Di Geso L, Filippucci E.

Abstract
BackgroundIn patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) who have residual synovitis even after using biological disease modified anti-rheumatic drug (bDMARDs), joint destruction may progress1,. The enhanced treatment such as shortening the dosing interval or dose escalation of bDMARDs are recommended for these patients, if allowed in package inserts 2, 3.ObjectivesWe investigated the effects of enhanced treatment in RA patients with residual synovitis under treatment with standard dose of bDMARDs.MethodsForty RA patients treated with standard dose of infliximab, tocilizumab or golimumab were included in this study. Ultrasound (US) examination was performed at the bilateral first to fifth metacarpophalangeal (MCP) joints, first interphalangeal (IP) and second to fifth proximal interphalangeal (PIP) joints, wrist joints (three parts of radial, medial and ulnar) and first to fifth metatarsophalangeal (MTP) joints, by using HI VISION Ascendus (Hitachi Medical Corporation, Japan) with a multifrequency linear transducer (18-6 MHz). Residual synovitis was defined as Power Doppler score (PD) ≥2. In patients with residual synovitis, we recommended enhanced treatment. The patients were divided into 3 groups, PD≥2/ET+ group (patients agreed enhanced treatment), PD≥2/ET- group (patients rejected enhanced treatment), and PD<2 group. We assessed ultrasound (PD score), laboratory data (CRP, MMP-3), disease activity (Simplified Disease Activity Index; SDAI), physical function (Health Assessment Questionnaire; HAQ), and joint destruction (modified Total Sharp Score; mTSS) at baseline and 1-year follow-up.ResultsThere were 9 patients in PD≥2/ET+ group and 31 patients in PD<2 group. PD≥2/ET+ group had significantly higher SDAI (p=0.027), MMP-3 (p=0.005), and PD (p<0.001) at baseline compared with PD<2 group, but their MMP-3 (p=0.019) and PD (p=0.042) were significantly decreased over 1 year. PD≥2/ET+ group had joint destruction before ET (p=0.022), but it was suppressed after ET and there was no significance in change in mTSS compared with PD<2 group (p>0.99) (Figure 1).Figure 1.Disease activity, ultrasound assessment and radiographic change from baseline (BL) to 1-year follow-up in RA patients with residual synovitis who had enhanced treatment (PD≥2/ET+) and those without active synovitis (PD<2).*Each parameter at BL and 1-year was statistically analyzed by Wilcoxin signed rank test only in PD≥2/ET+ group.**Difference in two groups at BL was statistically analyzed by Student t test or Mann-Whitney U test.SDAI: simplified disease activity index, HAQ: health assessment questionnaire, PD: Power Doppler, MMP-3: matrix metalloproteinase 3, mTSS: modified Total Sharp Score.ConclusionIn RA patients with the residual synovitis under treatment with standard dose of bDMARDs, enhanced treatment decreased the synovitis and suppressed the joint destruction.References[1]Nguyen H, Ruyssen-Witrand A, Gandjbakhch F, Constantin A, Foltz V, Cantagrel A.

Abstract
BackgroundPatients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) who have muscle weakness and stiff or painful joints might be at increased risk of falls and fractures.ObjectivesThe present study prospectively investigates correlations between decreasing doses of glucocorticoid (GC) and the incidence of clinical fractures in patients with RA based on the ten-year findings of the TOMORROW study (UMIN000003876) that started in 2010.MethodsWe evaluated anthropometric parameters, bone mineral density, disease activity, RA medication, and the incidence of clinical fractures over a period of ten years in 202 patients with RA (mean age, 58.6 years; mean disease duration, 14.0 years). We also investigated the effects of GC doses on the incidence of clinical fractures over the same period in patients with RA using multivariate regression analysis.ResultsThe incidence of clinical fractures for ten years in patients with RA was 0.036/person-year. There were 89 patients (44.1%) treated with GC at least once during ten years. The incidences of clinical fractures in patients with RA treated with and without GC during ten years were 0.052 and 0.026/person-year, respectively. After adjusting for fracture risk factors including age, sex, smoking, and body mass index, cox proportional hazard model revealed that GC dose of ≥ 2 mg/day at baseline was a significant risk factor for clinical fractures (Hazard ratio [HR]:2.430; 95%CI, 1.040-5.675, p=0.040). Although the risk for clinical fractures did not decrease by just reducing the dose of GC (HR:4.505; 95%CI, 0.589-34.457, p=0.147), it was significantly lower if the dose of GC could be reduced to zero during ten years (HR:0.407; 95%CI, 0.194-0.857, p=0.018).ConclusionMedication with even low dose of GC are apparently significantly associated with an increased frequency of clinical fractures among patients with RA. However, if the dose of GC was reduced to free during ten years, the clinical fracture risk could become lower. We concluded that we should decrease the dose of GC to free after controlling disease activity of RA.Disclosure of InterestsNone declared

Abstract
BackgroundRecently, the disease activity of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) was improved due to the ‘treat-to-target’ strategy. However, some patients remain various symptoms despite recommended treatment was performed. Then, the term of ‘difficult-to-treat RA (D2TRA)’ is widely recognized. It is unknown how the difference of type of biological disease-modifying anti rheumatic dugs (bDMARDs)/Janus kinase inhibitor (JAKi) will affect clinical efficacy in patients with D2TRA. Moreover, the risk factor to inhibit the clinical response in patients with D2TRA is unknown.ObjectivesThe aim of this study was to evaluate the treatment response in patients with D2TRA who were treated with interleukin 6 receptor inhibitor (IL-6Ri), abatacept and JAKi.MethodsThis study used the multicenter database included 673 RA patients treated with bDMARDs/JAKi (tocilizumab 240, sarilumab 67, abatacept 146, tofacitinib 101, baricitinib 83, upadacitinib 20, peficitinib 14, filgotinib 2). Two hundred forty-two patients were treated as first line bDMARDs/JAKi (IL-6Ri 117, abatacept 63, JAKi 62), 211 patients were treated as second line bDMARDs/JAKi (IL-6Ri 117, abatacept 37, JAKi 57), 220 patients were treated as third and more bDMARDs/JAKi. In these 220 patients, 82 patients did not meet D2TRA criteria (IL-6Ri 42, abatacept 15, JAKi 25) and 138 patients met D2TRA criteria (IL-6Ri 31, abatacept 31, JAKi 76). In all patients, we analyzed 138 patients with D2TRA (113 female, mean age was 63.1 ± 13.7 years). Drug retention rate and effectiveness of bDMARDs/JAKi in patients with D2TRA were evaluated for 24 weeks. Multivariate linear regression analysis was performed to clarify the risk factors to inhibit the clinical response.ResultsDrug retention rate of patients with D2TRA at 24 weeks was 67.7% in IL-6Ri group, 74.2% in abatacept group, 61.8% in JAKi group. Drug retention rate in patients with D2TRA was not different between groups (IL-6Ri vs abatacept: p=0.86, IL-6Ri vs JAKi group: p=0.39, abatacept vs JAKi group: p=0.33). DAS28-CRP at 4, 12, 24 weeks decreased in all group (Figure 1). Abatacept showed lower improvement ratio of DAS28-CRP at 24 weeks compared to IL-6Ri group (IL-6Ri vs abatacept: p<0.01, IL-6Ri vs JAKi: p=0.1, abatacept vs JAKi: p=0.07). Good responder (defined as decrease in DAS28-CRP score > 1.2 with a score < 3.2) was 52.4% patients in IL-6Ri, 17.4% patients in abatacept, 29.8% patients in JAKi. SDAI and CDAI at 4, 12, 24 weeks decreased in all group (Figure 1). There were no diferences between the groups in improvement ratio of SDAI (IL-6Ri vs abatacept: p=0.11, IL-6Ri vs JAKi: p=0.81, abatacept vs JAKi: p=0.08) and CDAI (IL-6Ri vs abatacept: p=0.31, IL-6Ri vs JAKi: p=0.82, abatacept vs JAKi: p=0.13) at 24 weeks. HAQ was 1.42, 1.15, 1.39 at baseline, 1.27, 1.07, 1.22 at 4 weeks, 1.17, 1.07, 1.17 at 12 weeks, 1.26, 1.06, 1.14 at 24 weeks in IL-6Ri group, abatacept and JAKi, respectively. Multivariate linear regression analysis revealed that high HAQ (β=0.28, p=0.02) and high dosage of glucocorticoid (β=0.67, p<0.01) inhibited the improvement of DAS28-CRP. Type of bDMARDs/JAKi (β=-0.09, p=0.36) did not affect the DAS28-CRP improvement for 24 weeks.Table 1.Multivariate linear regression analysis of risk factor to inhibit the clinical response in patients with D2TRA.β95% CIpAge (years)-0.037-0.025, 0.0170.74male-0.047-0.788, 0.4860.64Disease durations (years)-0.048-0.028, 0.0170.63RF (IU/ml)-0.082-0.0004, 0.00020.41Anti CCP antibody (U/ml)0.111-0.0005, 0.0020.26DAS28-CRP-0.063-0.265, 0.1420.55HAQ0.2790.059, 0.7170.02MTX (mg/day)0.136-0.018, 0.0810.21Glucocorticoid dose (mg/day)0.6690.174, 0.324< 0.01Type of bDMARDs/JAKi-0.088-0.415, 0.1510.36ConclusionDrug retention rate and clinical efficacy of D2TRA patients were not different among IL-6Ri, abatacept and JAKi.

Abstract
BackgroundMyeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSCs) are heterogeneous immature myeloid cells with suppressive functions (1). It is known that MDSCs are expanded in inflammatory sites after migrating from bone marrow (BM) or spleen. Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is an autoimmune disease characterized as polyarthritis. Although previous reports indicate that MDSCs are increased in BM and spleen of arthritis model mice, detailed analysis of MDSCs in inflammatory joints is limited.ObjectivesThe purpose of this study is to characterize the MDSCs in the joints of autoimmune arthritis.MethodsWe isolated CD11b+Gr1+ cells as MDSCs from joints (Jo-MDSCs), bone marrow (BM-MDSCs) and spleen (Sp-MDSCs) of arthritis-induced SKG mice, and investigated differential expressed genes (DEGs) among MDSCs from three tissues by microarray expression analysis. Furthermore, we analyzed the suppressive function of each MDSCs by investigating the effect of them on T cell -proliferation and the osteoclast differentiation of each MDSCs stimulated by M-CSF and RANKL.ResultsMicroarray analysis revealed that Jo-MDSCs highly expressed immunosuppressive DEGs (Pdl1, Arg1, Egr2 and Egr3) compared to BM MDSCs or Sp MDSCs. In addition, Jo-MDCSs highly expressed NF-κB non-canonical pathway DEGs (Nfkb2 and Relb), which are related to osteoclast differentiation. BM-MDSCs differentiated into osteoclasts but didn’t suppress T cell-proliferation and Sp-MDSCs suppressed T cell-proliferation but didn’t differentiate into osteoclasts. On the other hand, Jo-MDSCs was found to have both functions: T cell suppression and osteoclast differentiation potential.ConclusionJo-MDSCs have a strong inhibitory effect on T cell proliferation and have the ability osteoclast differentiation potential.References[1]Veglia F, Perego M, Gabrilovich D.

Abstract
BackgroundTo investigate if FRAX in patients with RA can predict the incidence of new clinical fractures for 10 years by using the 10-year data of the TOMORROW study (UMIN000003876) which is a prospective cohort study.ObjectivesTo investigate if FRAX in patients with RA can predict the incidence of new clinical fractures for 10 years by using the 10-year data of the TOMORROW study (UMIN000003876) which is a prospective cohort study.MethodsWe calculated ten-year probability of major osteoporotic fracture (FRAX) in 208 RA patients and 205 sex- and age-matched volunteers (Vo), and compared FRAX with the incidence of clinical fractures for 10 years.ResultsThe mean FRAX were 14.5 and 8.8% in 175 RA patients and 168 Vo, respectively, in whom we could calculate FRAX at baseline and complete to investigate the incidence of clinical fractures for 10 years from baseline. The mean FRAX in RA patients was significantly higher than that in Vo (P<0.001). The actual incidence of clinical fractures for 10 years in RA patients was significantly higher than that in Vo (33.9 vs 22.9%, P=0.031). In both groups, the actual incidence of clinical fractures was higher than FRAX prediction. Logistic regression analysis revealed that FRAX and FRAX≧15% were the significant risk factors for clinical fractures for 10 years in both groups (Odds ratio (OR), 1.055, P<0.001, 2.943, P=0.043, respectively). The mean FRAX in RA patients with and without clinical fractures for 10 years were 18.5 and 12.5%, respectively (P=0.002). In RA patients, FRAX was also the significant risk factor for clinical fractures (OR, 1.046, P=0.004).ConclusionFRAX and the incidence of clinical fractures for 10 years were significantly higher in RA patients than them of Vo. We confirmed that FRAX was the risk factor for clinical fractures in actual clinical practice.Disclosure of InterestsNone declared

Abstract
BackgroundClinical feature of Janus kinase (JAK) inhibitor is recognized as not only suppress inflammation but also improve patient-reported outcomes (PRO) such as pain and health assessment questioner (HAQ) in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA). This representative clinical feature was known as a results of phase 3 trial compared to TNF inhibitor. One of the mechanisms of JAK in RA is to suppresses interleikin-6 (IL-6). However, the effect for PRO in JAK inhibitor compared to IL-6 inhibitor have not been known.ObjectivesWe investigated the effect for patient-reported outcomes such as pain and HAQ in patients with RA treated with JAK inhibitor compared to IL-6 inhibitor.MethodsThis study was analysed a multicenter database included RA patients treated with biological disease-modifying anti rheumatic dugs (bDMARDs) and JAK inhibitors. In 307 patients treated with IL-6 inhibitor (tocilizumab 240 and sarilumab 67) and 220 patients with JAK inhibitor (tofacitinib 101, baricitinib 83, upadacitinib 20, peficitinib 14 and filgotinib 2), 155 patients were treated as first-line bDMARDs/JAK inhibitor (IL-6R inhibitor 104 and JAK inhibitor 51). In this first-line patients, patients treated with IL-6R inhibitor and JAK inhibitor were matched using the propensity score adjusted for gender, age, RA disease duration, baseline charactristics of disease activity, CRP level, and MMP-3 level. The beaseline data and the change of clinical and laboratory data at 4, 12 and 24 weeks were compared between IL-6 inhibitor and JAK inhibitor.ResultsThirty-six patients in each group were matched and analyzed. The average age was 62.4 and 62.6 years and the average disease duration of RA was 13.2 and 10.1 years in IL-6 inhibitor and JAK inhibitor. The baseline characteristics were not significantly different in both groups. At week 4, tender joint count (TJC) was significantly improved in JAK inhibitor than IL-6 (IL-6: -1.86 vs JAK: -4.12, p= 0.036) and HAQ was significantly improved in JAK inhibitor than IL-6 (IL-6: -0.04 vs JAK: -0.27, p= 0.041). Moreover, Clinical Disease Activity Index (CDAI) was also improved in JAK inhibitor than IL-6 (IL-6: -6.6 vs JAK: -10.9, p= 0.026) at week 4. However, pain VAS and patient global VAS were not significantly different in each group in week4. TJC, HAQ and CDAI was not different in both groups at week 12 and week 24. On the other hand, ESR was significantly decreased in IL-6 inhibitor than JAK inhibitor at week 4, 12 and 24 (IL-6: -26.6 vs JAK: -14.1, p=0.018 at week 4, IL-6: -32.7 vs JAK: -16.5 p=0.004 at week 12, IL-6: -31.3vs JAK: -17.7 p=0.014 at week 24).ConclusionIn a comparison between IL-6 inhibitor and JAK inhibitor as a first-line molecular-targeted drug matched baseline charactristics of disease activity, TJC and HAQ was improved in JAK inhibitor earlier than IL-6 inhibitors. JAK inhibitor suppress multi cytokine that might be the reason why JAK inhibitor improve pain. Improvement of patient reported outcome in JAK inhibitor was found also in comparison with IL-6 inhibitor.References[1]Taylor PC, Keystone EC, van der Heijde D, et al.

Abstract
BackgroundSome cases of creatine kinase (CK) elevation caused by Janus kinase (JAK) inhibitor treatment for rheumatoid arthritis (RA) have been reported in clinical trials1. However, the frequency and patients’ background characteristics in clinical practice are unknown.ObjectivesThe correlation between JAK inhibitor treatment for RA and changes in CK levels in clinical practice were investigated using a multicenter database.MethodsThe multicenter database of JAK inhibitors was used, and 103 (tofacitinib 46, baricitinib 44, upadacitinib 11, peficitinib 1, filgotinib 1) of 265 RA patients were followed up at 24 weeks, and their CK levels were evaluated. The time-dependent change of CK was evaluated by sex and analyzed by the Wilcoxon signed-rank test. The percentage abnormal from the standard titer was calculated. The factors related to an elevated CK at 24 weeks were investigated using patients’ background characteristics at the time of starting JAK inhibitors by univariate analysis.ResultsWomen accounted for 85.4% of the patients, the median age was 68 years, disease duration was 15 years, and the mean DAS28ESR was 5.00. The CK levels of both men and women were significantly elevated at 4 weeks and maintained until 24 weeks (men, women: 63, 62 (0 weeks), 101, 95 (4 weeks), 119, 96 (12 weeks), 155, 99 (24 weeks), U/L, P<0.001) (Figure 1). The percentage abnormal was also significantly increased at 4 weeks and maintained until 24 weeks (5.8% (0 weeks), 20.7% (4 weeks), 26.3% (12 weeks), 24.3% (24 weeks), P=0.002). The factors significantly positively related to elevated CK levels at 24 weeks were male, CK, creatinine, and lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), and stage, class, modified health assessment questionnaire, estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR), and glucocorticoid use were significantly negatively correlated (Table 1). There were no significant differences in CK elevation among the agents.Table 1.Characteristics at the time of starting JAK inhibitors related to elevated creatine kinase levels at 24 weeksUnivariateData at stating JAK inhibitorsR valueP valueCreatine kinase0.653<0.001Gender, men0.2470.012Steinbrocker stage-0.2150.039Steinbrocker class-0.2770.008modified health assessment questionnaire-0.2680.008Creatinine0.2890.003eGFR-0.2310.019LDH0.2010.041Glucocorticoid use-0.4090.008Analyzed by Spearman rank correlation coefficientFigure 1.Time-dependent changes of CK in all RA patientsConclusionCK was significantly elevated at 4 weeks and maintained until 24 weeks. However, no patients complained of muscle pain and stopped JAK inhibitors. Patients with high CK, low eGFR, high LDH, or maintained activities of daily living at the time of starting JAK inhibitors tended to have high CK levels at 24 weeks.References[1]Fleischmann, R. et al.

Abstract
BackgroundRomosozumab, a monoclonal antibody that binds sclerostin, increases bone formation and decreases bone resorption. Romosozumab has an excellent therapeutic effect on patients with osteoporosis. However, there are few reports investigated the efficacy and the effect of various factors relative to osteoporosis in real-world.ObjectivesWe evaluated bone mineral density (BMD) and bone metabolism marker (BMM) change in osteoporosis patients treated with romosozumab, and assessed the effect of various factors, such as preosteoporosis treatment, history of fragility fracture and combination of vitamin D.MethodsThis study included 141 osteoporosis patients (132 female, mean age: 78.8 ± 7.5 years, mean hight: 151.1 ± 7.5 cm, mean weight: 50.9 ± 8.9 kg) treated with romosozumab. BMD measurements using dual energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) and BMM measurements using N-terminal propeptide of type 1 collagen (P1NP) were evaluated at 0, 4, 6, and 12 months after treatment. DXA were performed at the lumbar spine (n=92), at proximal femoral and femoral neck (n=92), and at distal third radius (n=49). We evaluated the influence of preosteoporosis treatment, history of fragility fracture and combination of vitamin D for BMD change.ResultsBMD at lumbar spine (5.2%: p<0.01, 9.2%: p<0.01, 10.8%: p<0.01), proximal femoral (1.3%: p=0.02, 2.8%: p<0.01, 4.5%: p<0.01) and femoral neck (2.0%: p=0.03, 2.7%: p=0.06, 5.0%: p=0.01) were significantly increased at 4, 8, 12 months after treatment. BMD at distal third radius (-1.5%: p<0.01, -0.8%: p=0.17, -1.0%: p=0.13) were not increased at 4, 8, 12 months after treatment. P1NP chane were 63% (p<0.01), 6.4% (p=0.55), -2.3% (p=0.2) at 4, 8, 12 months after treatment. There were no significant differences in 1 year improvement ratio of BMD at lumbar spine, proximal femoral and femoral neck between 38 patients with pretreatment of osteoporosis and 54 patients without pretreatment of osteoporpsis (13.5 vs 9.5%: p=0.1, 4.9 vs 4.4%: p=0.7, 6.1 vs 4.6%: p=0.67), between 33 patients with a history of fragility fracture and 59 patients without a history of fragility fracture (7.3 vs 11.7%: p=0.42, 0.8 vs 5.5%: p=0.08, -0.7 vs 6.6%: p=0.14), between 50 patients with romosozumab alone and 42 patients with romosozumab plus vitamin D (11.3 vs 10.0%: p=0.93, 4.1 vs 5.3%: p=0.59, 6.8 vs 2.3%: p=0.47). There were no significant differences in 1 year improvement ratio of BMD at distal third radius between 33 patients with pretreatment of osteoporosis and 16 patients without pretreatment of osteoporpsis (-1.1 vs -0.9%: p=0.63), between 31 patients with a history of fragility fracture and 18 patients without a history of fragility fracture (-1.5 vs -0.5%: p=0.3).ConclusionRomosozumab improved BMD at lumbar and femoral independently regardless of preosteoporosis treatment, history of fragility fracture and combination of vitamin D.References[1]Felicia Cosman et al.

Abstract
BackgroundButyric acid is known to improve chronic inflammation such as inflammatory bowel disease and arthritis [1, 2]. Dendritic cells activate in inflammatory condition, migrate to regional lymph nodes, and activate naive T cells.ObjectivesIn this study, we investigated the effect of butyric acid on the migration ability of monocyte-derived dendritic cells (moDC).MethodsHuman CD14+ Monocytes were purified by positive selection from PBMC using CD14 magnetic beads. Cells were cultured in the presence of GM-CSF (50 ng/ml) and IL-4 (20 ng/ml) for 5 days. After culturing for 5 days, cells were matured with LPS (1ug/ml) for 24 hours. Butyric acid was administered at different dose or period. Surface antigen on moDC was analyzed by flow cytometry (BD FACS VERSE). Migration assay was performed on Boyden chamber CytoSelect 24-Well Cell Migration Assay (5um). Actin was stained with Alexa Fluor 488 Phalloidin before and after migration assay. After administration with butyric acid assigned to each period and concentration, moDC were lysed for western blot analysis for evaluating signaling. Chemiluminescent signals were detected and calculated by Amersham Imager.ResultsWe demonstrated that butyric acid decreased the CCR7 expression of moDC, which has a key role in DC homing to the lymph nodes and intestinal Peyer’s patches. We also showed that butyric acid decreased the migration ability of moDC. Furthermore, moDCs cultured with butyric acid showed a round shape and poor formation of dendrites and pseudopodia. Then we studied the effect of butyric acid on cytoskeleton, which plays an important role in migration and pseudopodia formation of DCs. Polymerized Actin (F-Actin) staining revealed that butyrate suppressed actin polymerization of moDC in a dose dependent manner. CDC42 works important role of lamellipodia and membrane protrusions. RhoA is upstream of mDia1, and mDia1 was reported to accelerate actin nucleation and elongation. We revealed that butyrate decreased the protein expression of mDia1, RhoA, and CDC42, while beta actin was not downregulated, by Western blot analysis. Our results suggested that butyric acid suppresses migration of moDCs by inhibiting mDia1-medicated actin polymerization.ConclusionButyric acid suppresses migration of moDCs by inhibiting mDia1-medicated actin polymerization.References[1]Mafalda R Couto 1, Pedro Gonçalves 2, Fernando Magro 3, Fátima Martel, et al.

Abstract
BackgroundPatients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) who have sarcopenia and stiff or painful joints might be at increased risk of falls and fractures.ObjectivesThe present study aimed to prospectively identify the incidence of clinical fractures and associated risk factors in patients with RA in a cohort study named the TOMORROW (UMIN000003876) that started in 2010.MethodsWe evaluated anthropometric parameters, bone mineral density (BMD), disease activity, RA medication at entry and observed the incidence of clinical fractures during ten years in 202 patients with RA (mean age, 58.6 y; medication with biological agents, 54.9%) and 202 age- and sex-matched non-RA volunteers (Vo) (mean age, 57.4 y). We compared the incidence of clinical fractures between patients with RA and Vo for ten years, and analyzed the risk factors for clinical fractures using Cox proportional hazard model.ResultsThe incidences of clinical fractures were 0.036 and 0.024/person-year in patients with RA and Vo, respectively. Cox proportional hazard model revealed that low BMD at the thoracic vertebrae (< 0.7 g/cm2) and history of fractures at entry were significantly associated with the incidence of clinical fractures (Hazard ratio [HR]1.737, p=0.020 and HR1.514, p=0.047, respectively) in all participants. RA morbidity, however, was not (HR1.398, p=0.112). In patients with RA, medication with GC at entry was a significant risk factor for clinical fractures (HR1.898, p=0.017). Additionally, a mean GC dose (≥ 2 mg/day) at entry and during the ten-year period increased risk for fractures (HR 2.189, p=0.004, 1.866, p=0.022, respectively).ConclusionRA per se was not a risk factor for clinical fractures in this cohort. Low BMD at the thoracic vertebrae at entry and the use of GC with even low dose at entry and during ten years were significantly associated with an increased frequency of clinical fractures among patients with RA.Disclosure of InterestsNone declared

Abstract
BackgroundDifficult-to-treat rheumatoid arthritis (D2T RA) is defined as RA in which disease activity is uncontrolled despite the use of two or more biologics or Janus kinase inhibitors (JAKi) with different mechanisms of action (MOA).ObjectivesTo explore the optimal treatment strategy for D2T RA, we evaluated the drug retention, efficacy, and reasons for discontinuation of biologics or JAKi used for patients with D2T RA in a longitudinal multicenter cohort.MethodsRA patients with clinical disease activity index (CDAI) >10 despite the use of at least two biologics or JAKi with different MOA and further treated with biologics or JAKi were included. The drug retention rates of biologics (TNFi, IL-6Ri, and CTLA4-Ig) or JAKi were estimated at 12 months using the Kaplan-Meier method and adjusted for potential confounders (age, sex, disease duration, concomitant MTX and PSL use, and the number of switched biologics or JAKi) using Cox proportional hazards models.ResultsA total of 251 treatment courses (TCs) from 167 patients were included (TNFi: 97 TCs, IL-6Ri: 67 TCs, CTLA4-Ig: 27 TCs, JAKi: 60 TCs). Baseline characteristics showed no difference in age, sex, disease duration, ACPA positivity, CDAI, and concomitant MTX and PSL use between the four groups. Drug retention excluding non-toxic reasons and remission was significantly higher in patients treated with JAKi or IL-6Ri than in patients treated with TNFi or CTLA4-Ig (P=0.00172). Multivariate analysis using Cox proportional hazards models demonstrated that discontinuation of the drug was associated with the use of TNFi or CTLA4-Ig (HR: 3.29, 95%CI: 1.15-9.42, P=0.027) and concomitant PSL use (HR: 1.14, 95%CI: 1.04-1.26, P=0.0084). In terms of disease activity evaluated with CDAI, no difference was observed between the four groups at 3 months (P=0.90), at 6 months (P=0.77), and at 12 months (P=0.75).ConclusionIn patients with D2T RA, JAKi or IL-6Ri may have treatment advantages compared with TNFi or CTLA4-Ig.References[1] EULAR definition of difficult-to-treat rheumatoid arthritis.Nagy G, Roodenrijs NMT, Welsing PM, Kedves M, Hamar A, van der Goes MC, Kent A, Bakkers M, Blaas E, Senolt L, Szekanecz Z, Choy E, Dougados M, Jacobs JW, Geenen R, Bijlsma HW, Zink A, Aletaha D, Schoneveld L, van Riel P, Gutermann L, Prior Y, Nikiphorou E, Ferraccioli G, Schett G, Hyrich KL, Mueller-Ladner U, Buch MH, McInnes IB, van der Heijde D, van Laar JM.Ann Rheum Dis. 2021 Jan;80(1):31-35.[2] Prevalence and predictive factors of difficult-to-treat rheumatoid arthritis: the KURAMA cohort.Watanabe R, Hashimoto M, Murata K, Murakami K, Tanaka M, Ohmura K, Ito H, Matsuda S.Immunol Med. 2021 May 25:1-10.Disclosure of InterestsRyu Watanabe Speakers bureau: Eli Lilly, Mitsubishi Tanabe, Pfizer, Sanofi, AbbVie, Asahi Kasei, Eisai, Bristol-Myers Squibb, UCB Japan, Chugai, Janssen, Astellas, Nippon Shinyaku, Daiichi Sankyo, Gilead Sciences Japan, and Boehringer ingelheim., Tadashi Okano Speakers bureau: Asahi Kasei, Astellas, Abbvie, Amgen, Ayumi, Chugai, Daiichi-Sankyo, Eisai, Eli Lilly, Gilead Sciences, Janssen, Kyowa Kirin, Mitsubishi Tanabe, Novartis, Ono, Pfizer, Sanofi, Takeda, UCB, Grant/research support from: Asahi Kasei, Abbvie, Chugai, Eisai, Mitsubishi Tanabe, Shinsuke Yamada: None declared, Wataru Yamamoto: None declared, Koichi Murata Speakers bureau: Eisai Co., Ltd., Chugai Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd.; Asahi Kasei Pharma Corp.; and Mitsubishi Tanabe Pharma Co., and Daiichi Sankyo Co.

Abstract
Although adjuvant tegafur/uracil (UFT) is recommended for patients with completely resected stage I non‐small‐cell lung cancer (NSCLC) in Japan, only one‐third of cases has received adjuvant chemotherapy (ADJ) according to real‐world data. Therefore, robust predictive biomarkers for selecting ADJ or observation (OBS) without ADJ are needed. Patients who underwent complete resection of stage I lung adenocarcinoma with or without adjuvant UFT were enrolled. The status of ACTN4 gene amplification was analyzed by FISH. Statistical analyses to determine whether the status of ACTN4 gene amplification affected recurrence‐free survival (RFS) were carried out. Formalin‐fixed, paraffin‐embedded samples from 1136 lung adenocarcinomas were submitted for analysis of ACTN4 gene amplification. Ninety‐nine (8.9%) of 1114 cases were positive for ACTN4 gene amplification. In the subgroup analysis of patients aged 65 years or older, the ADJ group had better RFS than the OBS group in the ACTN4‐positive cohort (hazard ratio [HR], 0.084, 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.009‐0.806; P = .032). The difference in RFS between the ADJ group and the OBS group was not significant in ACTN4‐negative cases (all ages: HR, 1.214; 95% CI, 0.848‐1.738; P = .289). Analyses of ACTN4 gene amplification contributed to the decision regarding postoperative ADJ for stage I lung adenocarcinomas, preventing recurrence, improving the quality of medical care, preventing the unnecessary side‐effects of ADJ, and saving medical costs.

Abstract
Background
Prognostic impact of Sodium-Glucose Cotransporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitors on cardiovascular and renal outcome was unknown in patients with type-2 diabetes mellitus (DM) and severely impaired renal function.
Methods
From July 2015 to December 2020, patients with type-2 DM who were taken SGLT2 inhibitors for more than six months were retrospectively screened. Patients with estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) over 60ml/min/1.73m2 were excluded. We divided those patients into two groups by eGFR; less than 45ml/min/1,73m2 were group A and 46–60ml/min/m2 were group B. Randomly selected patients with DM not taking SGLT2 inhibitors and having severe renal dysfunction: eGFR less than 45ml/min/m2 (Group C) were set as controls. The primary outcome was a composite of cardiovascular/renal death, initiation of dialysis, doubling of the serum creatine level, decline in the eGFR more than 30%, nonfatal myocardial infraction, nonfatal stroke, and hospitalization for heart failure.
Results
Totally 418 patients were enrolled. Median age was 71 years (group A, n=106), 64 years (group B, n=115), and 77 years (group C, n=201) (p<0.001). After median 24 months follow-up, primary endpoints were observed 24.5% in group A, 4.3% in group B, 36.8% in group C (p<0.001). In Kaplan-Meier analysis, significantly lower incidence of primary endpoints were observed in SGLT2 groups (group A and B) than controls (p<0.001, Figure 1). In patients with severe renal dysfunction, taking SGLT2 inhibitors tended to decrease future renal event (Figure 2). The incidence of SGLT2 related adverse events was not different between 2 groups (A and B).
Conclusions
Even in patients with severe renal dysfunction, SGLT2 inhibitors would have cardio-renal protective effects without drug-related adverse effects.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Polypharmacy would be associated with poor prognosis in patients with heart failure (HF).
Methods
In 863 patients who discharged after treatment for HF were prospectively enrolled. Number of tablets prescribed at discharge was counted. Death, non-fatal myocardial infarction, non-fatal stroke, and hospitalization for HF were tracked.
Results
In our study cohort (median age, 78), 447 patients experienced adverse events during median 503 days follow-up. In Kaplan-Meier analysis, a greater number of prescribed tablets was associated with future adverse cardiac events in the crude population. Although patients with the greater number of non-HF medications showed worse outcome, those of HF medications were not associate with the outcome (Figure). Furthermore, the number of tablets was an independent predictor of future cardiovascular events after adjustment for age, gender, B-type natriuretic peptide, hemoglobin, albumin, estimated glomerular filtration rate, and left ventricular ejection fraction (HR 95% CI: 1.295 (1.066–1.573), p=0.009).
Conclusions
Polypharmacy was associated with poor prognosis. Although the numbers of tablets and non-HF medications were significantly associated with worse out come in HF patients, the number of HF medications was not.

Abstract
Background:The Global Leadership Initiative on Malnutrition (GLIM) criteria, the first international criteria for diagnosis of malnutrition, was released in 2018 [1]. Patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) are thought to be prone to malnutrition due to decreased food intake and increased muscle catabolism caused by chronic inflammation or pain. However, there has been no report to assess the nutritional status of RA patients in accordance with the GLIM criteria. In addition, commonly used blood nutrient indicators such as albumin might not be appropriate as nutritional indicators for RA because these values are affected by inflammation.Objectives:This study aims to examine the rates of malnutrition in RA patients according to GLIM criteria, and the relationship between blood nutrient indicators and the severity of malnutrition.Methods:In this study, we conducted a cross-sectional survey of 135 female RA patients in 2020. According to the GLIM criteria, patients were considered to be malnourished if patients had one of the following phenotypic: (1) low body mass index, (2) non-volitional weight loss, (3) reduced muscle mass, and one of the following etiologic: (1) reduced food intake or assimilation, (2) disease burden/inflammatory condition. Reduced muscle mass was evaluated by measuring calf circumference, and inflammatory condition was evaluated by Disease Activity Score (DAS) 28. In accordance with the GLIM criteria, the severity of malnutrition was judged as three levels: no problem, moderate, and severe malnutrition. Albumin, transthyretin, transferrin, retinol binding protein, zinc, iron, ceruloplasmin, and total cholesterol were assessed as blood nutrition indicators. Also grip strength was assessed. We compared each nutritional indicator among the three groups according to the severity of malnutrition using age-adjusted analysis of covariance, and examined the relationship between each nutritional indicator and the severity of malnutrition using receiver operating characteristic (ROC) analysis.Results:In RA patients, 20% were classified as severe malnutrition, and 40% were moderate or more. Serum iron levels were significantly lower in the severe malnutrition group compared to the no problem group (p = 0.001). In ROC analysis, serum iron, zinc, albumin, and grip strength (area under curve; AUC; 0.680, 0.696, 0.636, 0.790, respectively) were significant parameters for classification of moderate and severe malnutrition. Serum iron and grip strength (AUC for respective parameters were 0.741, 0.747) were significant parameters for classification of severe malnutrition.Conclusion:Evaluation based on the GLIM criteria showed that about 40% of RA patients were under moderate or severe malnutrition. It was suggested that serum iron and grip strength might be useful to predict the severity of malnutrition.References:[1]Cederholm T, Jensen GL, Correia MITD, Gonzalez MC, Fukushima R, Higashiguchi T, et al.

Abstract
Background:We previously reported that ultrasound assessment of enthesitis (US enthesitis) is not consistent with tenderness of the enthesis (clinical enthesitis) in patients with psoriatic arthritis (PsA). Although US enthesitis reflects inflammatory condition and clinical enthesitis is associated with disease activity and physical function, each of them was not associated with joint destruction by cross-sectional analysis1. It is reported that the utility of US for predicting joint destruction remains unclear among patients with PsA2.Objectives:This study is aimed to longitudinally investigate the relationships between enthesitis or synovitis and joint damage progression in patients with PsA.Methods:Forty-seven patients with PsA (average age of 56.5 years) underwent US and clinical examination of wrist and finger joints and 14 entheses (the bilateral humeral medial epicondyles and insertions of the triceps, distal quadriceps, proximal/distal patella, Achilles tendons, and plantar fascia). Tender or swollen joint count (TJC/SJC), Gray Scale (GS) and Power Doppler (PD) score of the joints, and US/clinical enthesitis counts were calculated. The relationships between the yearly progression in modified total sharp score (ΔmTSS) at two-time points (baseline and average follow-up of 20.4 months) and US or clinical findings were investigated.Results:ΔmTSS was significantly correlated with age (r=0.44, p=0.01), joint GS score (r=0.44, p=0.01), and joint PD score (r=0.38, p=0.03). TJC, SJC, inflammatory marker, and disease activity showed no associations with ΔmTSS. US/clinical enthesitis counts also showed no associations with ΔmTSS (Table 1). The joint PD score, adjusted by age, was significant factor for ΔmTSS by multiple regression analysis (b=0.50, p<0.001).Conclusion:The joint PD score or US synovitis, unlike clinical joint assessment, was significant predictive factor for joint damage progression. It is important to assess joints by US as well as clinical examination.References:1) Yutaro Yamada et al.

Abstract
Background:Previous cohort studies showed that the use of prednisolone (PSL) was a risk factor for clinical fractures in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA). However, there are few reports on relationship between PSL dose and clinical fractures.Objectives:The present study aimed to determine the effect of PSL dose on the incidence of clinical fractures in the RA patients treated with PSL.Methods:We evaluated anthropoetric parameters, bone mineral density (BMD), disease activity score 28-erythrocyte sedimentation rate (DAS28-ESR), RA medication (methotrexate (MTX) dose, use of biologic disease modified anti-rheumatic-drugs (bDMARDs), and PSL dose) and the incidence of clinical fractures during nine years in RA patients who participant the TOMORROW study (UMIN000003876), which is a 10-years prospective cohort study. Data on clinical fracture was self-reported on the questionnaires. In this analysis, the data of RA patients treated with PSL at least once during nine-year period were evaluated. We analyzed the average dose of PSL until the incidence of the clinical fractures. The risk factor for clinical fractures were analyzed by using Cox proportional hazard model with adjustment for age, sex, body mass index (BMI), and smoking history.Results:We analyzed the data of 67 RA patients treated with PSL. Among them, median age was 61.8 year, 56 patients (83.6%) were female, 47 patients (70.1%) were never smoker and median disease duration was 12.1 year. The number of patients treated with PSL at baseline was 48 (69.1%). During 9 years, 23 clinical fractures were observed in 67 patients, and the incidence of clinical fracture was 0.046/person-year. In 19 patients, who were not treated with PSL at baseline but treated with PSL at least once during 9 years, 5 clinical fractures were observed. In 67 RA patients, Cox proportional hazard analysis revealed that baseline disease activities, BMD at thoracic vertebrae and medication were not significant risk factors for clinical fractures. However, average PSL dose of more than only 1 mg/day was a significant risk factor for the incidence of clinical fracture (hazard ratio (HR): 2.80; p=0.03) (Table 1).Table 1.Adjusted hazard ratio for clinical fractures in patients with rheumatoid arthritis treated with PSL.* Adjusted Hazard ratio95% Confidence intervalP valueCRP (mg/dL)1.290.88-1.910.19RF (IU/mL)0.990.99-1.000.07ACPA (U/mL)0.990.98-1.000.18DAS28-ESR0.990.71-1.390.97BMD at thoracic vertebrae (mg/cm2)0.020.00-1.000.05bDMARDs use0.550.23-1.320.18Bisphosphonate use2.330.95-5.710.07average dose of MTX (mg/week)1.020.92-1.120.74average score of DAS28-ESR1.150.76-1.750.52average dose of PSL more than 1mg/day2.81.09-7.240.03*Hazard ratio was adjusted for age, sex, body mass index (BMI), and smoking history.

Abstract
Background:Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) patients have a high frequency of sarcopenia, and they commonly have reduced physical function. We previously reported that the prevalence of sarcopenia was 28%, that of frailty was 18.9%, and that of pre-frailty was 38.9% in RA patients1,2, and 13.2% of RA patients developed sarcopenia within a year 3.Objectives:To investigate the risk factors for new onset of sarcopenia, locomotive syndrome, and frailty in patients with RA and the course of each disease.Methods:Two-year follow-up data from the rural group of the prospective, observational CHIKARA study were used. Sarcopenia was diagnosed using the criteria of the Asian Working Group for Sarcopenia 2014, locomotive syndrome was diagnosed using locomotive 5, and frailty was diagnosed using the basic checklist. New onset of the disease over the 2-year follow-up period was studied, excluding cases that had the disease at baseline. Improvement was defined as cases with disease at baseline that no longer met the diagnostic criteria after 2 years. Differences in the characteristics of each disease were tested using the Chi-squared test and the paired t-test.Results:The 81 patients with RA (82.7% female) had mean age 66.9±11.5 years, mean DAS28-ESR 2.9±1.2, methotrexate use in 81.5% (with a dose of 9.9±2.7 mg/week), and glucocorticoid (GC) use in 22.2% (with a dose of 3.1±1.7 mg/week). The baseline prevalence was 44.4% for sarcopenia, 35.8% for locomotive syndrome, and 25.9% for frailty, and the new onset rate was 4.4% for sarcopenia, 15.4% for locomotive syndrome, and 13.3% for frailty. Of the patients with each disease at baseline, 36.1% had sarcopenia, 20.7% had locomotive syndrome, and 33.3% had frailty, and of those with each disease at 2 years, 36.1% had sarcopenia, 20.7% had locomotive syndrome, and 33.3% had frailty. The new onset sarcopenia and locomotive syndrome groups had significantly higher rates of GC use (p=0.036, p=0.007, paired t-test) and significantly higher doses (p=0.01, p=0.001, paired t-test) than the groups without new onset sarcopenia and locomotive syndrome. High baseline disease activity was an independent predictor of new onset of locomotive syndrome on multivariate logistic regression analysis (OR=3.21, p=0.015).Conclusion:The new onset rates at 2 years were 4.4% for sarcopenia, 15.4% for locomotive syndrome, and 13.3% for frailty. In the new onset sarcopenia and locomotive syndrome groups, both GC use and dosage were significantly higher.References:[1]Tada M, et al.

Abstract
Background:In rheumatoid arthritis (RA), biologics treatment is one of the effective treatment options. Usually, there is no difference in therapeutic effect regardless of which biologics is used, but the effect for joint synovitis is unknown. Recently, ultrasound (US) has played a role of sensitive imaging modality in the diagnosis and follow-up of patients with RA.Objectives:The aim of this study was to compare the improvement of US findings between TNF inhibitors and non-TNF inhibitors at first biologics in patients with RA.Methods:Fifty-four RA patients who started the first biologics from September 2016 to December 2018 were included in this longitudinal study (SPEEDY study, UMIN000028260). All the patients were performed clinical examination, blood test and US examination at baseline, 4, 12, 24, 36 and 52 weeks. A US examination was performed at the bilateral first to fifth metacarpophalangeal (MCP) joints, first interphalangeal (IP) and second to fifth proximal interphalangeal (PIP) joints, wrist joints (three part of radial, medial and ulnar) and first to fifth metatarsophalangeal (MTP) joints, by using HI VISION Ascendus (Hitachi Medical Corporation, Japan) with a multifrequency linear transducer (18-6 MHz). The gray scale (GS) and power Doppler (PD) findings were assessed by the semi-quantitative method (0-3). GS score and PD score (both 0-108 points) were defined as the sum of each score. The change of disease activity and US findings were compared between TNF group and non-TNF group.Results:Among 54 cases, 32 patients were used TNF inhibitor and 22 were non-TNF inhibitor. Age and duration of RA were significantly higher in the non-TNF group, and MTX dose was significantly lower in the non-TNF group. The baseline inflammatory markers tended to be higher in the non-TNF group and the disease activity was also higher in the non-TNF group. However, the US findings showed no significant difference in both GS and PD between two groups at baseline. US improvement ratio was no difference between TNF group and non-TNF group at 4, 12, 24, 36 and 52 weeks in both GS and PD score. Regardless of the type of biologics, patients with long-term disease duration tended to have poor improvement in US synovial fingings.Table 1.Baseline patient and disease characteristicsTNF (n=32)non-TNF (n=22)P valueFemale patients, n (%)21 (65.6)16 (72.7)0.767Age (years)63.5±15.471.0±9.00.030Disease duration (years)6.5±8.213.0±11.70.032CRP (mg/dl)1.8±2.53.0±3.20.170DAS28-ESR5.0±1.45.8±1.20.022GS score26.1±18.831.8±21.10.313PD score17.6±11.423.1±14.60.150Figure 1.GS and PD improvement ratio at 4, 12, 24, 36 and 52 weeksConclusion:There was no difference in the US findings improvement between patients with TNF inhibitor and non-TNF inhibitor at first biologics in patients with RA.References:[1]Grassi W, Okano T, Di Geso L, Filippucci E.

Abstract
Background:C-reactive protein (CRP), an objective marker of inflammation, can be used to monitor treatment response to biologics in patients with axial spondyloarthritis (axSpA) in addition to evaluating signs & symptoms. CRP is not elevated in all patients with active axSpA questioning its validity as a universal biomarker of response. Ixekizumab (IXE) demonstrated efficacy in axSpA treatment irrespective of baseline (BL) CRP levels. However, response to IXE categorized on CRP change from BL is unknown.Objectives:To evaluate response to IXE treatment from BL through week (wk) 16 in patients with axSpA categorized according to change in high sensitivity (hs) CRP.Methods:COAST-V (NCT 02696785),-W (NCT02696798), & -X (NCT02757352), were phase 3, multicentre, randomized, controlled trials, investigating the efficacy of IXE 80 mg every 4 & 2 wks in patients with: r-axSpA naïve to biologic disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs (bDMARDs; COAST-V); or who were inadequate responders/intolerant to tumour necrosis factor inhibitors (TNFi; COAST-W); or who fulfilled Assessment of SpondyloArthritis International Society (ASAS) criteria for non-radiographic (nr)axSpA (COAST-X).This post hoc analysis focuses on approved dosing regimens. Depending on BL and wk 16 hsCRP values, patients were categorised as stable low (hsCRP ≤5 mg/L at BL & ≤5 mg/L at wk 16), normalized (hsCRP >5 mg/L at BL & ≤5 mg/L at wk 16) or elevated (hsCRP >5 mg/L at wk 16, irrespective of BL hsCRP). An absolute cutoff of 5 mg/L was used as the stratification factor in all COAST studies. Data were analyzed by treatment arm. Each trial was analyzed separately.For hsCRP subgroups, patient demographics & other characteristics at BL, as well as trajectory over time for the endpoints ASAS40 & Bath Ankylosing Spondylitis Disease Activity Index (BASDAI) 50 are described. Non-responder imputation was used for missing values.Results:In all studies at BL, disease activity & MRI SPARCC score were higher in normalized & elevated subgroups compared to the stable low subgroup - a.In COAST-V, ASAS40 & BASDAI50 response was observed in IXE-treated patients regardless of hsCRP change status by wk 16 vs placebo. The highest ASAS40 & BASDAI50 response rate was reported in patients with normalized hsCRP - b. Similar findings were observed in COAST-W & -X.Table 1.Baseline Patient demographics & other characteristics - ITT population, per CRP subgroupCOAST-V(r-axSpA, bDMARD naive)COAST-W(r-axSpA, inadequate responders /intolerant to TNFi)COAST-X(non-radiographic axSpA, bDMARD naïve)Stable low (n=79)Norma-lized (n=80)Elevated (n=98)Stable low(n=58)Norma-lized (n=34)Elevated (n=126)Stable low (n=78)Norma-lized(n=40)Elevated (n=81)ParameterAge (years)43.7 (12.1)38.9 (10.9)42.7 (12.0)50.4 (13.3)46.1 (13.8)45.7 (12.5)44.0 (12.8)37.2 (14.6)38.7 (12.8)Male gender, n (%)63 (79.7)71.0 (88.8)78 (79.6)39.0 (67.2)30 (88.2)109 (86.5)35 (44.9)23 (57.5)34 (42)Duration of symptoms since axSpA onset (years)17.5 (11.2)14.4 (9.3)16.1 (9.9)21.7 (12.9)16.8 (11.6)18.9 (10.9)12.1 (9.9)10.3 (9.7)9.5 (9.0)HLA-B27 positive, n (%)69 (87.3)75.0 (93.8)89 (90.8)31.0 (91.2)101 (80.2)101 (80.2)48 (61.5)31 (77.5)67 (82.7)BASDAI Total Score6.5 (1.4)6.7 (1.5)7.0 (1.1)7.4 (1.5)7.3 (1.3)7.4 (1.3)6.9 (1.5)7.1 (1.6)7.2 (1.5)ASDAS Total Score3.1 (0.5)3.9 (0.6)4.2 (0.7)3.5 (0.6)4.3 (0.6)4.4 (0.8)3.2 (0.6)4.2 (0.8)4.2 (0.9)Spinal Pain due to AS7.0 (1.5)7.0 (1.5)7.5 (1.3)7.8 (1.5)7.7 (1.5)7.9 (1.4)7.2 (1.7)7.5 (1.7)7.5 (1.6)Patients with peripheral articular manifestations (>=1 TJC or >=1 SJC)47 (59.5)40 (50)62 (63.3)43 (74.1)24 (70.6)86 (68.3)56 (71.8)33 (82.5)66 (81.5)MRI Spine SPARCC ScoreMRI SIJ SPARCC ScoreMRI SPARCC Score6.7 (11.2)21.8 (27.3)20.7 (25.7)1.2 (2.3)7.0 (7.6)10.4 (17.0)5.2 (6.6)6.1 (8.2)6.2 (10.5)Conclusion:IXE reduced clinical disease activity in patients with axSpA irrespective of hsCRP change from BL to wk 16.

Abstract
Background:Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a chronic inflammatory arthritis that primarily affects the joints of hands, wrists, and feet. Anatomical damage (at bone, cartilage and tendon level) occurs as a consequence of a persistent synovial inflammation (1). In RA, periarticular soft tissues, including nerves, may also be involved. In particular, there is a high prevalence of neuropathic conditions such as carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS) in RA patients. In fact, the presence of inflammatory changes can frequently be documented by ultrasound (US) at the level of median nerve (2). Currently available very-high frequency US transducers allow high spatial resolution of small anatomical structures, including the palmar digital nerves.Objectives:The objectives of this study were: to document the presence of dimensional alterations of the palmar digital nerves, particularly in terms of increased cross-sectional area (CSA), and to determine the variables associated with increased CSA, in RA patients.Methods:From September 2020 to December 2020, adult RA patients from a tertiary outpatient clinic were consecutively included regardless of disease activity status. Patients underwent a clinical assessment to determine disease activity using the Clinical Disease Activity Index (CDAI), functional capacity using the QuickDASH, and the presence of neuropathic pain features using the PainDetect Questionnaire (PDQ). In the same visit, patients underwent a US examination of the 2nd to 5th metacarpophalangeal joints (MCPj) of the clinically more involved hand by an operator blinded to the clinical assessment. The presence/absence and US grading of synovitis was recorded for each joint. A third operator, blinded to the clinical and joint US assessment, measured the CSA of each pair of palmar digital nerves from 2nd to 5th finger scanned for assessment joint involvement. The CSA of the palmar digital nerves was measured at the MCPj. The US examinations were conducted with a MyLab Class C (Esaote, Genoa, Italy), with a 6-18 MHz probe for the articular examination, and with an 10-22 MHz probe for the examination of the palmar digital nerves. The serological status, respectively rheumatoid factor (RF) and anti-citrullinated peptide antibodies (ACPA), and the presence of radiographic erosive disease were also recorded for each patient. Statistical analysis was conducted by considering the sum of the CSA for each nerve pair of each finger. CSA was compared with respect to body mass index (BMI), disease duration, disease activity, US synovitis grading, functional capacity, neuropathic pain features, serological characteristics, and erosive status.Results:Sixty-three patients with RA were included, 48 women, 15 men, with a mean age of 62.2 (11.8, standard deviation [SD]) years, a mean disease duration of 10.9 (8.2) years, for a total of 252 MCPj and 504 palmar digital nerves. The CSA of the palmar digital nerves taken individually was 2.3 (0.9) mm2, ranging from 1 mm2 to 8 mm2, and 4.2 (1.5) mm2 as a pair for finger. There was a statistically significant association with disease activity as assessed by the CDAI (p <0.001), and with the grading of US synovitis (p <0.001), while there were no significant associations with any of the other variables.Conclusion:The presence of active RA, both in terms of clinical and ultrasonographic indices, correlates with an increased CSA of the palmar digital nerves. This alteration is probably due to inflammatory mechanisms of the perineural tissues at the level of the MCPj. Active synovitis during RA can somehow be framed as a condition capable of causing neuropathic damage to the palmar digital nerves.References:[1]Filippucci E, Cipolletta E, Mashadi Mirza R, et al.

Abstract
Background:Patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) who have sarcopenia and stiff or painful joints might be at increased risk of falls and fractures.Objectives:The present study aimed to prospectively identify the incidence of clinical fractures and associated risk factors in patients with RA in a cohort study named the TOMORROW (UMIN000003876) that started in 2010.Methods:We evaluated anthropometric parameters, bone mineral density (BMD), disease activity, RA medication at baseline and observed the incidence of clinical fractures during nine years in 202 patients with RA (mean age, 58.6 y; medication with biological agents, 54.9%) and 202 age- and sex-matched non-RA volunteers (mean age, 57.4 y). We compared the incidence of clinical fractures between patients with RA and controls for nine years, and analyzed the risk factors for fractures using Cox proportional hazard model.Results:The incidence of clinical fractures in RA patients was significantly higher compared to controls (27.5 vs 18.3%, p=0.04). However, Cox proportional hazard model, adjusted by age, sex, smoking and body mass index, revealed that low BMD at thoracic vertebrae (< 0.7 g/cm2) significantly associated to the incidence of clinical fractures (hazard ratio [HR], 1.86, p=0.02), but not RA morbidity (HR 1.47, p=0.10) (Table 1). Among patients with RA, low BMD at the thoracic vertebrae (< 0.7 g/cm2) was the most prominent risk factor for clinical fractures (HR, 2.66, p=0.02) (Table 1). Although the use of glucocorticoid (GC) at baseline (HR, 1.68, p=0.09) was not a significant risk factor for fractures, a mean GC dose (≥ 2 mg/day) at entry increased risk for clinical fractures in the patients (HR, 1.91, p=0.04) (Table 1).Conclusion:RA per se was not a risk factor for clinical fractures in this cohort. Low BMD at the thoracic vertebrae and the use of GC with even low dose at entry were apparently significant risk factors for the incidence of clinical fractures among patients with RA.Disclosure of Interests:Kenji Mamoto: None declared, Tatsuya Koike Grant/research support from: Takeda Pharmaceutical, Mitsubishi Tanabe Pharma Corporation,Chugai Pharmaceutical, Eisai, Abbott Japan, Teijin Pharma, Banyu Pharmaceutical and Ono Pharmaceutical, Yutaro Yamada: None declared, Tadashi Okano: None declared, Yuko Sugioka: None declared, Masahiro Tada: None declared, Kentaro Inui Speakers bureau: Daiichi Sankyo Co.

Abstract
UNLABELLED We examined the effectiveness of coordinators' interventions to prevent secondary fractures in patients with fragility fractures. These coordinator-based interventions improved bone density assessment implementation and treatment rates, and enhanced treatment persistence rates in the early stages following fractures. INTRODUCTION This study aimed to determine the efficiency of coordinator-based osteoporosis intervention in fragility fracture patients during a 2-year period. METHODS A prospective intervention randomized control study was conducted at seven medical facilities from January 2015 to March 2017. Postmenopausal women and men over 50 years old with fragility fractures were randomly divided into the coordinator intervention (LI; 70 patients) and without intervention (non-LI; 71 patients) groups. The osteoporosis treatment rate, osteoporosis treatment persistence rate, fall rate, fracture incidence rate, and bone density measurement rate 3 months, 6 months, 1 year, and 2 years after registration were compared between the two groups. Non-parametric tests were used to analyze data at each inspection period. RESULTS The osteoporosis treatment initiation rate was significantly higher in the LI group than in the non-LI group (85.7% vs. 71.8%; p = 0.04). The LI group had significantly higher bone density assessment implementation rates than the non-LI group at the time of registration (90.0% vs. 69.0%; p = 0.00) and 6 months after registration (50.0% vs. 29.6%; p = 0.01), but not 1 or 2 years after registration. In addition, no significant differences in fall or fracture incidence rates were found between the two groups. CONCLUSION The coordinator-based interventions for fragility fractures improved bone density assessment implementation and treatment rates and enhanced treatment persistence rates in the early stages following bone fractures. The findings suggest that liaison intervention may help both fracture and osteoporosis physicians for the evaluation of osteoporosis and initiation and continuation of osteoporosis medication.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Free-Fat Mass Index (FFMI) is an indicator of malnutrition and sarcopenia. We hypothesized that low FFMI would be associated with worse prognosis in elderly patients with heart failure.
Methods
In 800 patients who discharged after treatment for HF were prospectively enrolled from 13 medical centers. Free-Fat Mass Index was calculated dividing the square of the patients heights in meters into lean body mass. All-cause mortality (cardiovascular, non-cardiovascular) was followed-up by telephone interview and chart review.
Results
In our study cohort (median age, 78 [range 72–87]), FFMI was 16.7 [15.2, 18.0]. All-cause mortality was observed in 211 patients during 631 [266, 983] days follow-up. In Kaplan-Meier analysis, lower FFMI was associated with all-cause mortality. Furthermore, FFMI was an independent predictor of mortality after adjustment for age, gender, albumin, hemoglobin, creatinine, brain natriuretic peptide, and left ventricular ejection fraction (HR 95% CI: 0.841 (0.745–0.944), p=0.004). In subgroup analysis, low FFMI was associated with both cardiac and non-cardiac mortality in patients with HF with reduced ejection fraction (EF) (Log-rank p=0.002, p=0.013, respectively) (Figure). Furthermore, low FFMI was significantly associated non-cardiac death in patients with preserved EF (Log-rank p=0.033) (Figure).
Conclusions
Free-Fat Mass Index was significantly associated with mortality in elderly patients with HF.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Sarcopenia and malnutrition are associated with mortality in elderly patients with heart failure (HF). However, impact of phenotypic difference of sarcopenia on mortality is not well investigated. We hypothesized that evaluation using both body mass index (BMI) and free-fat mass index (FFMI) enabled distinction of phenotypic difference of sarcopenia and risk stratification for mortality in elderly patients with heart failure.
Methods
In 800 patients who discharged after treatment for HF were prospectively enrolled from 13 medical centers. Body mass index and FFMI was evaluated. Free-fat mass index was calculated dividing the square of the patients' heights in meters into lean body mass. All-cause mortality was followed-up. Patients were divided into 3 subgroups according to BMI and FFMI values, and compared incidence of mortality among them.
Results
In our study cohort (median age, 78 [range 72–87]), BMI was 21.1 [18.9, 23.8] and FFMI was 16.7 [15.2, 18.0]. 211 patients were experienced all-cause mortality during 631 [266, 983] days follow-up. In Kaplan-Meier analysis, lower BMI and lower FFMI was associated with all-cause mortality (Log-rank p<0.001, p<0.001, respectively). Furthermore, FFMI was an independent predictor of adverse events after adjustment for age, gender, albumin, hemoglobin, creatinine, brain natriuretic peptide, and left ventricular ejection fraction (HR 95% CI: 0.841 (0.745–0.944), p=0.004). In subgroup analysis, comparing with low-BMI and low-FFMI subgroup, better prognosis was observed in the other 2 subgroups (Log-rank p<0.001, p=0.022, Figure 1).
Conclusions
Phenotypic difference was evident in elderly patients with HF. A combination of BMI and FFMI would be useful for risk stratification of mortality in those patients.

Abstract
Background:Leptin and adiponectin have been thought to be adipocytokines that promote or suppress inflammation, respectively.Objectives:The aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between adipocytokine and inflammatory markers or disease activity in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) by using 5-year data of TOMORROW study which is a cohort study and started from 2010.Methods:We evaluated inflammatory markers, disease activity score (DAS)-CRP, medication and levels of adipocytokines in 202 patients with RA (mean age, 58.6 y; medication with biological agents, 54.9%) and 202 age- and sex-matched healthy volunteers (controls; mean age, 57.4 y). We eventually compared leptin or adiponectin concentrations in 183 RA patients and 190 controls from 2010 (BL) to 2015 (5Y) and investigated the relationship between adipocytokines and CRP or DAS in patients by using Spearman correlation analysis.Results:The levels of leptin and adiponectin in patients were significantly higher than controls at all time points. Adiponectin level of patients significantly increased from BL to 5Y compared to controls (Table 1). In patients, adiponectin showed significant negative correlation with CRP at both of BL and 5Y (BL:R=-0.174, 5Y:R=-0.240; p<0.05), however, not with DAS at BL and 5Y. Leptin positively correlated with CRP at 5Y(R=0.207; p<0.05), but not with CRP at BL or DAS at any time. Adiponectin levels at BL and 5Y were significantly higher in biologics users at BL and significantly increased from BL to 5Y compared to patients without biologics. No association between leptin levels and the use of biologics (Table 2).Conclusion:The level of adiponectin in RA patients with continuous treatments for 5 years increased, and the trend was more pronounced in biologics users. These results might indicate that adiponectin is a cytokine involved in anti-inflammatory effects.Disclosure of Interests:Kenji Mamoto: None declared, Kentaro Inui Grant/research support from: Janssen Pharmaceutical K.K., Astellas Pharma Inc., Sanofi K.K., Abbvie GK, Takeda Pharmaceutical Co.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Recently, structural reverse remodeling (SRR) and electrical reverse remodeling (ERR) after cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) have been reported in patients of heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF). However the relationship between ERR and subsequent adverse cardiac events is still unknown. We aimed to elucidate the impact of ERR after CRT on the occurrence of heart failure events and ventricular arrhythmias.
Methods
A total of 36 HFrEF patients who underwent newly CRT implantation were investigated retrospectively. The intrinsic QRS duration (iQRSd) had been recorded before and more than 6 months after CRT implantation. Biventricular pacing was temporarily turned off during measurement of iQRSd. ERR was defined as positive shortening of iQRSd and SRR was defined as reduction of left ventricular end systolic volume by more than 15% after CRT implantation. The primary endpoint was a composite of all cause death, heart failure hospitalizations and ventricular tachyarrhythmia events.
Results
ERR was observed in 17 patients (47.2%) and SRR in 22 patients (61.1%). The group with ERR included more patients with lower NYHA class prior to CRT and patients with SRR. The primary endpoint was observed in 15 patients (51.4 %) for a median of 181 [63, 367] days during follow-up. Kaplan-Meier analysis revealed that the group without ERR was poor prognosis compared with the group with ERR (p = 0.022, Log-rank test).
Conclusion
Patients of HFrEF with ERR after CRT may have fewer adverse cardiac events such as worsening heart failure or ventricular arrhythmia events from this short-term study.

Abstract
Background:In rheumatoid arthritis (RA), biologics treatment is one of the effective treatment options. On the other hand, the effects of biologics cannot be obtained satisfactorily in all patients, and there are some cases in which treatment is interrupted due to ineffective or adverse events. However, the useful predictive markers of the biologics have not been found in the early phase of treatment in RA. Recently, ultrasound (US) has played a role of sensitive imaging modality in the diagnosis and follow-up of patients with RA.Objectives:In this study, we investigated whether continuation of biologics treatment can be predicted by ultrasonographic findings in the early phase.Methods:Fifty-four RA patients who started the first biologics from September 2016 to December 2018 were included. All the patients were performed clinical examination, blood tests and US examination of hand and foot at baseline, 4, 12, 24, 36 and 52 weeks. US examination was performed on MCP joints, PIP joints, wrist and MTP joints.Results:Among 54 cases, 42 cases were able to continue treatment until one year later, and the continuation rate was 80.8%. Of the 12 patients who discontinued first biologics treatment, 5 were changes to other biologics due to inadequate response, 4 were their wishes, and 3 were adverse events. Multiple regression analysis was performed with treatment continuation as the dependent variable and improvement of CRP, MMP-3, DAS28-CRP, grayscale score and power Doppler score in 4 weeks as explanatory variables. Only improvement of power Doppler score was extracted as a significant predictor (p = 0.045). In the continuation group, the improvement of the power Doppler signal at week 4 was 36% compared with the baseline, compared with 10% in the discontinuation group.Conclusion:The early improvement of power Doppler signal in 4 weeks could be a predictive factor for the continuation of 1-year biological treatment.References:[1]Grassi W, Okano T, Di Geso L, Filippucci E.

Abstract
Background:Immunometabolism is now recognaized to be crucial in the pathogenesis of rheumatoid arthritis (RA). We have recently shown that the expression of glutaminase 1 (GLS1), a key enzyme in glutaminolysis, is upregulated in fibroblast-like synoviocytes from RA patients (RA-FLS) and that GLS1 inhibition suppresses RA-FLS proliferation (1). However, glutaminolysis has been known to suppress autophagy by activating mTORC1 or counteracting ROS production (2). Given the possibility of autophagy upregulation following glutamiolysis inhibition, therapies targeting both autophagy and glutaminolysis may be more effective in suppressing cell growth of RA-FLS, yet the relation between glutaminolysis and autophagy in RA-FLS has not been investigated.Objectives:To examine the effects of inhibiting both glutaminolysis and autophagy on RA-FLS and autoimmune arthritis in SKG mice.Methods:GLS1 inhibitor, compound 968 (C968), was used to suppress glutaminolysis, and Chloroquine (CQ) was used to inhibit autophagy. To detect autophagy, the expression of ATG5 and LC3B was measured by real-time PCR and the production of LC3-II was analyzed by Western blotting. The formation of autophagic vacuoles was identified by immunfluorescense. Cell growth was evaluated by BrdU assay. Apoptosis was analyzed by flow cytometry staining with Annexin V-FITC and PI. C968 and CQ were administered subcutaneously to Zymosan A-injected SKG mice.Results:C968 upregulated the expression of ATG5 and LC3B, and increased the protein level of LC3-II in RA-FLS. C968 also facilitated autophagosome formation. These results suggested that inhibition of glutaminolysis promoted autophagy in RA-FLS. The combined treatment with C968 and CQ significantly suppressed cell proliferation of RA-FLS more strongly than did C968 or CQ alone. In addition, C968 combined with CQ increased the apoptosis rate, whereas either C968 or CQ alone did not. Furthermore, combination of C968 and CQ significantly attenuated the degree of arthritis in SKG mice, while C968 or CQ monotherapy did not (Figure).Conclusion:The GLS1 inhibitor C968 promotes autophagy in RA-FLS. C968 in combination with CQ reduces proliferation and enhances apoptosis in RA-FLS, and ameliorates the arthritis in SKG mice. Suppressing C968-induced autophagy may be a promising therapy for arthritis.References:[1] Takahashi S., et al. Arthritis Res Ther. 2017 Apr 11;19(1):76.[2] Villar VH., et al.

Abstract
Background:Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) patients present with variable clinical features ranging from mild joint and skin involvement to life-threatening organ involvement such as nephritis, neuropsychiatric involvement, diffuse alveolar hemorrhage, and hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis (HLH). HLH is rare, but fatal complication of SLE. Recently, European League Against Rheumatism, the American College of Rheumatology, and the Pediatric Rheumatology International Trials Organization was to develop a set of classification criteria for MAS complicating systemic juvenile idiopathic arthritis (PRINTO criteria) [1]. Sung Soo Ahn and his colleagues reported PRINTO criteria predicted mortality of adult SLE patient, but they followed only one year [2].Objectives:To reveal association PRINTO criteria with long term mortalities in SLE patient in our Hospital.Methods:We performed a retrospective analysis of SLE patients who received moderate dose glucocorticoid therapy (>0.4mg/kg/d) in our hospital between April 2008 and April 2019. Patients were evaluated for HLH using the 2016 PRINTO classification criteria for MAS. Clinical features and laboratory findings were compared and overall survival rate was analyzed.Results:Among 164 episode (144 patients) with SLE, 31 episode (31 patients) 5.2% were considered to have MAS on admission.The overall survival rate was significantly lower in patients with MAS than without MAS (86.2% vs. 95.3%, p = 0.048). Interestingly, SLEDAI had no association with mortality, relapse rate, and MAS complication. SLEDAI more focused on renal and neuropsychiatric symptoms than hematologic features. So SLEDAI might not be associated with MAS secondary to SLE. Furthermore, we observed no death patient with MAS after one year, and only 1 case relapse in MAS patient. So MAS might have fatal but less relapsing property compared with other lupus cases.Conclusion:PRINTO criteria may be useful to differentiated fatal MAS patients from others. Further investigations are required to confirm our findings.Limitation The main limitations of our study include its retrospective design, single center site, and that the number of admitted patients with SLE was small.Limitation:The main limitations of our study include its retrospective design, single center site, and that the number of admitted patients with SLE was small.Limitation:Limitation The main limitations of our study include its retrospective design, single center site, and that the number of admitted patients with SLE was small.References:[1]Wulffraat N, Schneider R, Filipovic L, et al. 2016 Classification Criteria for Macrophage Activation Syndrome Complicating Systemic Juvenile Idiopathic Arthritis.

Abstract
Background:Falling is a multicausal phenomenon resulting from complex interactions between intrinsic and extrinsic or environmental factors. Patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) who have muscle weakness and stiff or painful joints might be at increased risk of falling. However, little is known about the exact properties of risk factors for falling in patients with RA. Recently, the disease activity of RA has been more satisfactorily controlled by the ‘‘treat-to-target’’ strategy, including the use of biologics. Given this new era, it is important to accurately estimate the incidence of falling in patients with RA and to elucidate contributing risk factors.Objectives:The objective of this study was to evaluate the incidence of falling and associated risk factors in 208 patients with RA and in age- and sex-matched 205 controls (Co) who participated in the TOMORROW (TOtalManagementOfRisk factors inRheumatoid arthritis patients to lOWer morbidity and mortality) study, a 10-year cohort study that started in 2010 in Japan. This research was conducted using TOMORROW study data for 9 years.Methods:We evaluated the incidence of falling by self-administered questionnaire every year and confirmed them by medical records. We also collected information about general health status, body composition including bone mineral density, lean body mass, fat mass and laboratory data. We compared the frequency of the incidence of falling in RA patients and Co for 9 years and analyzed risk factors for falling.Results:A total of 157 patients with RA (mean age: 57.1 ± 12.5 years, female: 84.7%, mean disease duration 13.9 ± 12.0 years) and 169 Co (mean age: 57.6 ± 12.5 years, female: 84.0%) completed 9 years observation. The rate of individuals who fell did not differ between two groups (RA: 66.9%, Co: 59.2%, p=0.19). However, number of falls was higher in RA than Co (0.35 vs 0.21/person-year, p=0.03). Multivariate logistic regression analysis adjusted for age, sex and BMI, revealed that RA was not a risk factor for the incidence of falling (OR: 1.36, 95%CI: 0.8-2.32, p=0.26) and the history of falling was a risk factor for the incidence of falling (OR: 3.27, 95%CI: 1.78-7.0, p<0.001). Multivariate linear regression analysis adjusted for age, sex and BMI, revealed that mHAQ (β=0.17, p=0.04), mean DAS28-CRP over 9 years (β=0.19, p=0.02) and mean dosage of glucocorticoid over 9 years (β=0.18, p=0.03) were the risk factors for number of falls (table 1).Table 1.Multivariate linear regression analysis of risk factors associated with number of falls sustained by patients RA.RAN=157Number of fallsβpAt the entryAnti-CCP antibody (U/mL)0.0160.835RF (IU/ml)0.0200.803History of falling0.1030.201DAS28-CRP0.0780.333mHAQ0.1690.039Dose of GC (mg/day)0.0280.7239 yearsAverage DAS28-CRP0.1850.024Average dose of GC (mg/day)0.1790.025RA, rheumatoid arthritis; CCP, cyclic citrullinated peptide; RF, Rheumatoid factor; DAS28-CRP, disease activity score 28 with C-reactive protein; mHAQ, modified Health Assessment Questionnaire; GC, glucocorticoid.Conclusion:There was no difference in the incidence of falling between RA and Co.

Abstract
Background:We have previously reported that nutritional intake status might relate to disease activity (1). Nutritional survey on prospective cohort study in rheumatoid arthritis (RA) patients and information about relationship between nutritional intake status and disease activity was very limited.Objectives:This study aimed to obtain data from a cohort study for new nutritional therapy in RA patients.Methods:We used TOMORROW cohort study data which conducted from years of 2010 to 2020. Two hundred and eight RA patients, and 205 non-RA sex and age matched controls were investigated, and we analyzed data from 2011 to 2017. Nutritional intake status was compared between who maintain lower disease activity during 2011 to 2017 (LDA group) and being higher disease activity even once in 2011 to 2017 (non-LDA group). Disease activity was evaluated by DAS28-ESR in every year and nutritional intake status was surveyed by brief self-administered diet history questionnaire (BDHQ) in 2011 and 2017.Results:In RA patients, the change value from 2011 to 2017 of iron (odds ratio; 2.37), thiamin (OR; 2.96) and folic acid (OR; 3.16) intake which adjusted by energy intake, age, rheumatoid factor and medication status were extracted as independent factors for maintain LDA by multivariate logistic regression. These nutrients intake in RA patients was significantly lower than control both in 2011 and 2017. In RA patients, iron and folic acid intake in LDA group was significantly lower than non-LDA group in 2011. Folic acid intake was increased in LDA group and decreased in non-LDA group over time, and these nutrients showed significant differences in change value between LDA group and non-LDA group (p<0.05).Conclusion:The overtime change value in iron, thiamin and folic acid related to maintain six years low disease activity in RA patients.References:[1] Matsumoto Y, Sugioka Y, Tada M, Okano T, Mamoto K, Inui K, et al.

Abstract
Background:Recent advances of treatment for rheumatoid arthritis (RA) realizes us to set the treatment goal as remission. As the results, health assessment questionnaire (HAQ) has been also becoming better in these years. On the other hand, progress in ageing has been a major issue in Japan, including the patients with RA. which is thought as one of the factors affecting HAQ.Objectives:To evaluate the impact of ageing on HAQ in RA patients.Methods:The data of 208 RA patients used in this study was collected over a 7-year period from 2010 to 2017 as part of a prospective cohort study (TOMORROW Study: UMIN000003876) that included RA patients and age- and sex-matched volunteers recruited through mass media as controls. The data of RA patients included anthropometric, blood test data, disease activity score28-CRP (DAS28) and modified HAQ (mHAQ), together with baseline (BL) characteristics. The course of mHAQ for 7 years were analyzed by repeated measure ANOVA, and association between the changes of mHAQ at year-7 from BL (ΔmHAQ) and BL factors were analyzed by multiple regression analysis.Results:Two hundred and eight RA patients (153 women; mean age 58.1 years) were enrolled in the present study. Modified HAQ decreased significantly over the 7-year study period in RA patients. When the patients were stratified into 3 groups (lower than 2.7, between 2.7 and 4.1, over 4.1) by DAS28 at BL, mHAQ of the patients with high disease activity (DAS28: over 4.1) at BL was significantly worse than other groups (p=0.018; repeated measure ANOVA). There was no interaction between time and 3 groups (p=0.118; repeated measure ANOVA). Multiple regression analysis with ΔmHAQ as the outcome variable and ACPA, age, BMI, CRP, DAS28, MMP-3 at BL as independent variables revealed that age (p=0.034) and DAS28 (p=0.042) were independently related with ΔmHAQ.Conclusion:Ageing in RA patients impacted worsening of mHAQ over a 7-year period independently from disease activity. On assessing mHAQ in elderly RA patients, we must consider the age as well as the disease activity.Disclosure of Interests:Kentaro Inui Grant/research support from: Janssen Pharmaceutical K.K., Astellas Pharma Inc., Sanofi K.K., Abbvie GK, Takeda Pharmaceutical Co.

Abstract
Background:Osteoporosis is one of the major comorbidities in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA). There are a lot of evidence that denosumab increase bone mineral density (BMD) in patients with osteoporosis. However, there are few reports investigated the influence of denosumab in patients with RA.Objectives:We evaluated the BMD change in patients with RA treated denosumab and assessed the effect of various factors, such as disease activity, biological disease-modifying anti-rheumatic drugs (bDMARDs) use, concomitant medications of osteoporosis and pretreatment of osteoporosis.Methods:This study included 140 consecutive RA patients (135 female, mean age was 70.6 ± 8.6 years) who fullfilled the criteria of osteoporosis and treated with denosumab. BMD at the lumbar spine, proximal femoral and femoral neck were evaluated by dual energy X-ray absorptiometry at baseline and one year after treatment. We evaluated the influence of disease activity, bDMARDs use, the concomitant type of vitamin D and pretreatment of osteoporosis for BMD change.Results:BMD change at the lumbar spine, proximal femoral and femoral neck were 5.9% (p<0.01), 4.0% (p<0.01), and 1.2% (p=0.36) durling one year. There were no differences in improvement ratio of BMD between each parameters (fig 1). Disease activity: 75 patients in remission or low disease activity and 65 patients in moderate or high disease activity were 6.4 vs 5.3% (p=0.91), 3.0 vs 5.1% (p=0.73), 2.0 vs 0.3% (p=0.1). bDMARDs: 45 patients with bDMARDs (anti-tumor necrosis factor inhibitors (TNF): 23, tocilizmab (TCZ): 13, abatacept (ABT): 7, Tofacitinib: 2) and 93 patients without bDMARDs were 6.0 vs 5.8% (p=0.31), 4.3 vs 4.1% (p=0.57), -0.2 vs 1.8% (p=0.18). Type of vitamin D: 47 patients taking active form vitamin D and 60 patients taking native form vitamin D were 5.5 vs 6.8% (p=0.82), 3.1 vs 3.8% (p=0.93), 0.4 vs 1.9% (p=0.14). Pretreatment of osteoporosis: 74 patients with pretreatment of osteoporosis (bisphosphonate:58, teriparatide:16) and 66 patients without pretreatment of osteoporosis were 6.9 vs 5.4% (p=0.41), 0.9 vs 4.0% (p=0.22), 2.0 vs 1.2% (p=0.68). Moreover, BMD change were not different in bDMARDs type, 5.0, 6.4, 0.5% in TNF group, 4.8, 0.7, -1.9% in TCZ group, 9.7, 4.9, 0.2% in ABT group (TNF vs TCZ: p=0.83, 0.98, 0.81, TNF vs ABT: p=0.83, 0.41, 0.97, TCZ vs ABT: p=0.98, 0.43, 0.9). There were no difference between bisphosphonate and teriparatide (6.2 vs 6.9%: p=0.49, 4.8 vs 0.9%: p=0.35, 0.9 vs 2.0%: p=0.49).Conclusion:Denosumab improved BMD in patients with RA independently regardless of disease activity, bDMARDs, the concomitant type of vitamin D and pretreatment of osteoporosis.References:[1]Y Nakamura et al, Arch Osteoporos: 2017; 12:80.[2]K Kaneko et al, Journal of Experimental Orthopaedics: 2019; 6:41.[3]T Suzuki et al, Therapeutics and Clinical Risk Management: 2018; 14:453–459.Acknowledgments:We wish to thank Atsuko Kamiyama, Tomoko Nakatsuka, Masato Uematsu and all participants in this study.Disclosure of Interests:Shohei Anno: None declared, Tadashi Okano Grant/research support from: AbbVie, Eisai, Mitsubishi Tanabe Pharma Corporation and Nipponkayaku, Speakers bureau: AbbVie, Asahikasei, Astellas Pharma Inc, Ayumi Pharmaceutical, Bristol-Myers Squibb, Chugai Pharmaceutical, Daiich Sankyo, Eisai, Janssen, Lilly, Mitsubishi Tanabe Pharma Corporation, Novartis Pharma, Ono Pharmaceutical, Pfizer, Sanofi, Takeda Pharmaceutical, Teijin Pharma and UCB, Kentaro Inui Grant/research support from: Janssen Pharmaceutical K.K., Astellas Pharma Inc., Sanofi K.K., Abbvie GK, Takeda Pharmaceutical Co.

Background / Introduction
Although sick sinus syndrome(SSS) can be associated with atrial fibrillation(AF), predictive factors of SSS following catheter ablation(CA) of persistent atrial fibrillation(perAF) are not well known.
Purpose
We investigated echocardiographic parameters to predict occurrence of SSS after restoration of sinus rhythm by CA for perAF patients.
Methods
Ninety-eight consecutive perAF patients from June 2014 to May 2018 treated with CA were retrospectively reviewed. Twelve patients(12%, SSS group) developed SSS after successful CA and 86 patients(88%, non-SSS group) did not. Baseline characteristics, blood exam, and echocardiographic findings(RA area size, LA area size, EF, etc) before AF CA were analyzed using Student’s t test, Mann-Whitney test, Chi-square test and Univariate analysis. Multivariate logistic analysis was then performed using those parameters. The atrial area size was calculated from 4 chamber view at the atrial end- systole.
Results
The multivariate analysis for predictive factors of SSS is shown in the table. Right atrium(RA) area could predict SSS(17.3 ± 4.8cm2 vs. 14.7 ± 3.6cm2, odds ratio 1.468; 95% confidence interval 1.088 to 1.981, p = 0.012). Gender (female) was also an independent predictor(4/12 (33%) vs. 8/86 (9%), odds ratio 39.832; 95% confidence interval 2.589 to 612.938, p = 0.008). The other echocardiographical findings(LA area size, EF, etc), baseline characteristics and blood exam results were not related to SSS after successful CA of perAF patients.
Conclusions
The large RA area size and gender (female) could predict SSS in perAF patients after restoration of sinus rhythm by successful CA. We may need to inform possible SSS after CA to female patients with a large RA before CA.
Multivariate Logistic analysis Total(N = 98) SSS group (N = 12) Non SSS group (N = 86) Odds ratio 95% CI P-value Age 64(58-69) 68(60-72) 63(57-69) 1.032 0.929-1.145 0.560 Gender/Female 12(12%) 4(33%) 8(9%) 39.832 2.589-612.938 0.008 CKD 27(28%) 6(50%) 21(24%) 1.264 0.179-8.945 0.814 BNP 91(53-180) 206(167-304) 82(48-169) 1.003 0.993-1.012 0.609 RDW 45.1 ± 3.9 46.4 ± 4.8 44.9 ± 3.8 1.242 0.971-1.588 0.085 RA area 15.1 ± 3.8 17.3 ± 4.8 14.7 ± 3.6 1.468 1.088-1.981 0.012 LA area 24.2(17.0-24.9) 24.4(17.7-26.3) 24.1(16.8-24.4) 0.967 0.803-1.165 0.726 Right atrium area and gender were the independent predictor of SSS in persistent atrial fibrillation patients after restoration of sinus rhythm

Abstract
The aim of the present study was to investigate epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) mutations as a prognostic factor for postoperative patients with positive EGFR mutations treated with postoperative platinum-based adjuvant chemotherapy (PBAC), and whether two common EGFR mutations exhibit different responses to PBAC. A total of 110 patients who underwent complete surgical resection were enrolled, and overall survival (OS) and disease-free survival (DFS) were investigated based on EGFR mutation status and PBAC. The 3 year OS rate in patient groups were as follows: Patients with EGFR mutations (MT) undergoing PBAC, 89.3%; MT patients without PBAC, 83.3%; wild-type (WT) patients with PBAC, 82.3%; and WT patients without PBAC, 62.2%. Statistically significant differences were observed between WT patients based on PBAC (P=0.026). No statistically significant differences were observed between MT patients with PBAC and MT patients without PBAC. On the basis of mutation subtypes, the 3 year OS rate of patient groups were as follows: Patients with in-frame deletions in exon19 (19 del) with PBAC, 92.3%; patients with 19 del without PBAC, 85.7%; patients with the point mutation L858R inexon21 (21L858R) with PBAC, 86.7%; and patients with 21L858R without PBAC, 81.5%; the respective 3-year DFS rates were 53.8, 14.3, 40.2 and 26.9%. Statistically significant differences were observed in the DFS rates in 19 del patients, which was dependent on PBAC (P=0.040). EGFR mutation-positive patients exhibited a decreased benefit from PBAC for increasing in survival rate compared with WT patients. It may be necessary to consider postoperative strategies based on EGFR mutations and their subtype in the future.
