Systematic literature review informing the EULAR recommendations for the non-pharmacological management of systemic lupus erythematosus and systemic sclerosis. RMD Open 2023; 9:e003297. [PMID: 37532469 PMCID: PMC10401222 DOI: 10.1136/rmdopen-2023-003297] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/09/2023] [Accepted: 06/28/2023] [Indexed: 08/04/2023] Open
Abstract
Through this systematic literature review, we assembled evidence to inform the EULAR recommendations for the non-pharmacological management of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) and systemic sclerosis (SSc). We screened articles published between January 2000 and June 2021. Studies selected for data extraction (118 for SLE and 92 for SSc) were thematically categorised by the character of their intervention. Of 208 articles included, 51 were classified as robust in critical appraisal. Physical activity was the most studied management strategy and was found to be efficacious in both diseases. Patient education and self-management also constituted widely studied topics. Many studies on SLE found psychological interventions to improve quality of life. Studies on SSc found phototherapy and laser treatment to improve cutaneous disease manifestations. In summary, non-pharmacological management of SLE and SSc encompasses a wide range of interventions, which can be combined and provided either with or without adjunct pharmacological treatment but should not aim to substitute the latter when this is deemed required. While some management strategies i.e., physical exercise and patient education, are already established in current clinical practice in several centres, others e.g., phototherapy and laser treatment, show both feasibility and efficacy, yet require testing in more rigorous trials than those hitherto conducted.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Monotherapy with Infliximab (IFX) can be as efficient as combotherapy with immunomodulators in the treatment and maintenance of remission for children with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) if an early proactive therapeutic drug monitoring strategy is adequately performed. This strategy may allow optimization of blood levels of IFX in order to obtain a sustained clinical response.
Purpose
This study demonstrated that with appropriate early trough levels of IFX before dose #3 and dose #4 , monotherapy was very efficient in inducing remssion at week 52 .
Method
A retrospective study was conducted at CHU Sainte-Justine, Montréal,Canada .Children with IBD 2 to 18 years old diagnosed between 01/2018 and 06/2020 and treated with IFX less than 30 days after diagnosis were included .IFX blood levels were collected before the 3rd and/or 4th dose of IFX and regularly thereafter. Adjustments were done in IFX dose per infusion according to blood levels and clinical response. The primary outcome was clinical remission at one year after diagnosis.The secondary outcomes included: (1) At 52 weeks, the median (IQR) dose of IFX (mg/kg) and the intervals between IFX infusions ; (2) the median (IQR) number of IFX dose changes and the median (IQR) number of blood trough levels of IFX done.
Result(s)
101 patients were included : 56.4% males; 81CD; 18 UC; 2 IBDU. Mean age at diagnosis was 13.2 years (IQR = 11.20 to 15. 20).
Median time to IFX initiation after diagnosis was 5 days (IQR :3-14).Median IFX dose #1: was 8.4 mg/kg (IQR = 5. 8 to 10).
90% of patient had an IFX optimisation (increasing dose and/or shortening intervals) after dose 3 or dose 4. At week 52, 36,5% of patients were receiving IFX infusion every 4 weeks and 30,6% every 6 weeks. The median IFX dose per infusion was 8,9mg/kg (IQR = 7.4- 9,8 ). The IFX doses at week 52 varied greatly according to age at diagnosis The median number of IFX blood level dosage was 4 per patient over a year (IQR=3-5).At week 52, 83 patients (84.6%) achieved clinical remission with a median IFX level of 10.96 (7.05-15.59). 74 /83 (89%) were on monotherapy and 9/83(10.8%) on combotherapy

Conclusion(s)
Early treatment for IBD with IFX as monotherapy and an early proactive optimization strategy is associated with a good sustained steroid free clinical remissionAt week 52, 83 patients (84.6%) achieved clinical remission with a median IFX level of 10.96 (7.05-15.59). 74 /83 (89%) were on monotherapy and 9/83(10.8%) on combotherapy.The majority of the patients required IFX optimization during their first year of treatment. We therefore recommend to proactively monitor blood levels of IFX before the third and fourth dose of IFX and thereafter, in order to lower the risk of treatment failure and anti-infliximab antibodies occurrence.

Abstract
BackgroundThe heterogeneity and complexity of the chronic autoimmune diseases systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) and systemic sclerosis (SSc) necessitate comprehensive person-centred management, including non-pharmacological approaches. Recommendations for non-pharmacological management are currently lacking.ObjectivesTo perform a systematic literature review to inform the EULAR task force for recommendations/points to consider for the non-pharmacological management of adult patients with SLE and SSc. Among research questions formulated by the task force, we aimed at identifying (i) non-pharmacological interventions that have been evaluated and (ii) their target health domains or organ systems.MethodsWe searched the Medline, Embase, Web of Science Core Collection and CINAHL for articles published between January 2000 and June 2021. From the initial search (n=15,803), 2 researchers independently performed the article selection. Conflicts were discussed until consensus with 2 additional researchers. Subsequent data extraction from the selected articles was performed by 4 researchers, with an overarching guidance by 2 additional researchers. Risk of bias assessment was performed according to Joanna Briggs Institute Critical Appraisal Checklists.ResultsA total of 111 articles for SLE and 75 for SSc were selected for analysis.Non-pharmacological interventions identified for SLE included physical exercise (n=34), psychological support (n=21), dietary therapy and nutrition (n=15), patient education and self-management (n=14), photoprotection (n=5), medication adherence interventions (n=5), complementary and alternative medicine (CAM) e.g., Chinese medicine (n=5), multidisciplinary care (n=4), and phototherapy/laser modalities (n=4).Interventions identified for SSc included physical exercise e.g., hand, oral and general exercise (n=21), phototherapy/laser modalities or shockwave therapy (n=15), patient education and self-management (n=10), CAM (n=8), hand-bathing e.g., in paraffin (n=5), manual therapy e.g., osteopathic manipulative treatment (n=5), dietary therapy and nutrition (n=5), oral hygiene (n=2), hyperbaric oxygen or ozone therapy (n=2) and multidisciplinary care (n=2).Target health domains and organ systems identified within SLE included (in descending order) (i) disease activity, (ii) health-related quality of life (HRQoL), (iii) depression/anxiety, (iv) fatigue, (v) organ damage, (vi) inflammatory markers, (vii) psychological stress, (viii) pain, (ix) body composition/anthropometry, and (x) aerobic capacity.Intervention targets in SSc included (i) functional impairment e.g., hand mobility, (ii) skin sclerosis including microstomia, (iii) HRQoL, (iv) pain, (v) circulation e.g., Raynaud’s phenomena and telangiectasias, (vi) skin ulcers, (vii) oral hygiene, (viii) fatigue, (ix) digestion, and (x) depression/anxiety.ConclusionPhysical exercise was a frequently researched non-pharmacological intervention within both SLE and SSc. While psychological support and dietary therapy/nutrition were frequently investigated in SLE, phototherapy modalities were common in SSc. Patient education and self-management was advocated in both SLE and SSc literature. HRQoL was a frequent target domain in both diseases; while disease activity and psychosocial domains emerged as important targets in SLE, functional impairment and skin-related aspects constituted predominant targets in SSc. Efficacy of interventions varied considerably across studies. Current evidence is limited by the overall small study populations, and the lack of large RCTs.Table 1.Studies categorised by design.Study designSLESScMeta-analysis of RCTs51RCT (including long-term follow-up or post-hoc analysis)4128Non-randomised longitudinal controlled/cohort studies287Retrospective cohort study, cross-sectional or case-control study162Case series or open pilot studies2137AcknowledgementsThe authors would like to thank the members of the EULAR task force for recommendations/points to consider for the non-pharmacological management of systemic lupus erythematosus and systemic sclerosis (in alphabetical order by family name) i.e., Helene Alexanderson, Laurent Arnaud, Oliver Distler, Andrea Domján, Els van den Ende, Kim Fligelstone, Agnes Kocher, Maddalena Larosa, Martin Lau, Alexandros Mitropoulos, Mwidimi Ndosi, Gunilla von Perner, Janet Poole, Anthony Redmond, Valentin Ritschl, Yvonne Sjöberg, Tillmann Uhlig, Cecília Varjú, Joke Vriezekolk, Elisabet Welin, and Rene Westhovens, for their contribution to the formulation of the research questions together with IP, CG, TS and CB.Disclosure of InterestsNone declared

Abstract
Background Acral pustular disease within the pustular psoriasis/psoriasis‐like spectrum mainly includes palmoplantar pustulosis (PPP) and acrodermatitis continua of Hallopeau (ACH). Scarce data argue for a distinction between these two entities, but no study has compared the clinical and epidemiologic characteristics of ACH and PPP. Objectives We aimed to perform a comparative description of the epidemiological and clinical characteristics of PPP and ACH in a multicentre retrospective cohort. Methods In this multicentre national retrospective cohort study, we compared the epidemiological characteristics, comorbidities and psoriasis characteristics of patients with PPP and ACH. Results A total of 234 patients were included: 203 (87%) with PPP, 18 (8%) with ACH and 13 (6%) with both, according to 2017 ERASPEN criteria. As compared with ACH, PPP was associated with female sex, smoking activity and higher median BMI (P = 0.01, P = 0.02 and P = 0.05 respectively). A family background of psoriasis was more frequent in PPP than ACH. Age of onset of palmoplantar disease was similar between PPP and ACH patients, median age 44 and 48 years respectively. Peripheral joint inflammatory involvement was the only rheumatic disease associated with ACH. The association with another psoriasis type was similar in PPP and ACH (57.6% and 61.1% respectively). Conclusion Our study confirms in a large PPP cohort the predominance of females and a high prevalence of smoking and elevated body mass index but also shows an association of these features in PPP as compared with ACH. In addition, it highlights peripheral arthritis as the only arthritis endotype associated with ACH. Increased knowledge of the immunogenetic backgrounds underlying these two entities is warranted to better stratify pustular psoriasis or psoriasis‐like entities for precision medicine.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Oral lichen is a chronic inflammatory disease for which diagnostic management and follow-up are heterogeneous given the absence of specific guidelines in France. Our objective was to develop French multidisciplinary guidelines for the management of oral lichen. MATERIALS AND METHODS Working groups from the Groupe d'Etude de la Muqueuse Buccale (GEMUB) formulated a list of research questions and the corresponding recommendations according to the "formal consensus" method for developing practice guidelines. These recommendations were submitted to a group of experts and the degree of agreement for each recommendation was assessed by a scoring group. RESULTS Twenty-two research questions, divided into 3 themes (nosological classification and initial assessment, induced oral lichenoid lesions, and follow-up) resulted in 22 recommendations. Initial biopsy for histology is recommended in the absence of reticulated lesions. Biopsy for direct immunofluorescence is recommended for ulcerated, erosive, bullous types and for diffuse erythematous gingivitis. Management should include a periodontal and dental check-up, and investigation for extra-oral lesions. Hepatitis C testing is recommended only if risk factors are present. Definitions, triggering factors and the management of "induced oral lichenoid lesions" were clarified. Oral lichen must be monitored by a practitioner familiar with the disease at least once a year, using objective tools. CONCLUSION This formalised consensus of multidisciplinary experts provides clinical practice guidelines on the management and monitoring of oral lichen.

Abstract
Background Crohn’s disease (CD) triggers are incompletely understood and the incidence of the disease has been increasing. Aims The aims of this study were to describe the trends in the clinical, endoscopic, histological, and laboratory characteristics of pediatric CD during the last decade and to describe the seasonal variation of disease presentation at diagnosis. Methods Patients under 18 years old and diagnosed between 2009 and 2019 were included. Patients clinical, endoscopic, histological, and laboratory data were collected from the medical records. Data were analyzed for the cohort as a whole and according to diagnostic periods (2009–2014 and 2015–2019) and seasons. Results 654 patients were included in the study. The total number of incident CD cases significantly increased yearly. Patients diagnosed between 2015 and 2019 were younger at diagnosis (OR: 2.30, p<0.0001), had more perianal diseases (OR= 2.30, p<0.001) and more intestinal biopsy granulomas (OR= 1.61, p=0.003) as compared to the 2009–2014 cohort. Also, there was a strong association between intestinal biopsy granulomas, young age at diagnosis and perianal fistulas or abscesses; the presence of granulomas was associated with greater perianal involvements (OR= 2.25, p<0.001) and younger age at diagnosis (OR = 0.90, p=0.0002). PCDAI and SES-CD scores at diagnosis, disease location and behavior and laboratory markers did not change over time. There were fewer CD diagnosis during winter. The highest vitamin D levels in patients occurred in summer and fall, but the majority of patients had, regardless of the season of diagnosis, severe vitamin D deficiency (the median vitamin D level was 60.0 nmol/L in summer and fall compared to 47.0 nmol/L in winter-spring, p=0.003). Vitamin D levels at diagnosis are inversely correlated with PCDAI (Pearson correlation coefficient = -0.19, p=0.03) and SES-CD (-0.20, p=0.04). Patients diagnosed in fall had lower PCDAI and SES-CD scores, less failure to thrive, less digestive symptoms and less extensive digestive involvement. Colonic disease was significantly more frequent during summer and fall (27.3% of patients diagnosed in summer and fall versus 18.2% of cases in winter and spring, p=0.01). Conclusions The disease phenotype has changed over the years and there are important seasonal trends in the frequency and severety of the disease suggesting possible disease triggers. Our findings provide interesting avenues for future research, such as identifying the clinical significance of granulomas, vitamin D deficiency and microbiota on pediatric CD activity. ![]()

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Few risk factors are associated with the risk of relapses of Crohn’s disease in children.
Aims
The aims of this retrospective cohort study were to describe the rate of relapses in children with Crohn’s disease, its evolution over the past decade and to determine risk factors associated with relapse.
Methods
Patients under 18 years old and diagnosed between 2009 and 2019 were included. Patients clinical, endoscopic, histological, and laboratory characteristics, as well as their treatments, where collected from their medical records and the prospective CHU Sainte-Justine inflammatory bowel disease registry. Survival analyses and Cox regression models were used to assess the impact of those risk factors on relapse.
Results
639 patients were included. There was a decrease in the clinical relapse rate over the past decade: 70.9% of patients diagnosed between 2009 and 2014 experienced a relapse compared to 49.1% of patients diagnosed between 2015 and 2019 (p<0.0001). The following variables were associated with clinical relapse: female sex (adjusted hazard ratio (aHR)= 1.51, p=0.0009), high PCDAI (aHR= 1.02, p=0.04) and SES-CD (aHR= 1.03, p=0.03) scores at diagnosis, upper digestive tract involvement (aHR= 1.59, p=0.0003), exposure to oral 5-ASA (aHR= 1.91, p=0.0003), use of immunomodulatory agents compared to TNF-alpha inhibitors (methotrexate aHR= 1.91, p=0.0006; thiopurines aHR= 2.06, p<0.0001), presence of granulomas (aHR= 1.27, p=0.04) and increased eosinophils on intestinal biopsies (aHR= 1.34, p=0.02), high levels of C-reactive protein (aHR= 1.01, p<0.0001) and fecal calprotectin (aHR=1.09, p<0.0001) during clinical remission and low serum infliximab levels during maintenance (aHR for mean serum infliximab level under 7ug/mL = 2.48, p=0.005).
Conclusions
Relapse risk was significantly associated with baseline clinical, endoscopic, histological and laboratory data and treatment strategies. These results could help better select treatment options for pediatric Crohn’s disease at induction and maintenance.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
The natural evolution of Crohn’s disease is incompletely understood in the pediatric population. Data on factors influencing time-to-remission are very limited in the literature.
Aims
The aim of this retrospective cohort study was to describe the time to clinical remission in children with Crohn’s disease as well as changes over the past decade and to identify factors associated with time to clinical remission.
Methods
Patients under 18 years old diagnosed between 2009 and 2019 were included. All data were collected from the patients’ medical records and the CHU Sainte-Justine inflammatory bowel disease registry. Survival analyses and linear regression models were used to assess the impact of clinical, laboratory, endoscopic, histological and therapeutic factors on time to clinical remission.
Results
654 patients were included in the study. There was no change in the time to clinical remission over the past decade. Female sex in adolescents (ajusted bêta regression coefficient (aβ)= 31.8 days, p= 0.02), upper digestive tract involvement (aβ= 46.4 days, p= 0.04), perianal disease (aβ= 32.2 days, p= 0.04), presence of active inflammation on biopsies (aβ= 46.7 days, p= 0.01) and oral 5-ASA exposure (aβ=56.6 days, p= 0.002) were all associated with longer time to clinical remission. However, antibiotic exposure (aβ= -29.3 days, p=0.04), increased eosinophils on biopsies (aβ= -29.6 days, p=0.008) and combination of exclusive enteral nutrition and TNF- alpha inhibitors as induction therapy (aβ= -36.8, p=0.04) were associated with shorter time to clinical remission.
Conclusions
Time to clinical remission did not improve during the decade and was associated with baseline clinical and histological data and treatment strategies. Combination of enteral nutrition and TNF-alpha inhibitors was associated with faster clinical remission.

Differences in obstetrical care and outcomes associated with the proportion of the obstetrician's shift completed. Am J Obstet Gynecol 2021; 225:430.e1-430.e11. [PMID: 33812810 DOI: 10.1016/j.ajog.2021.03.033] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/09/2021] [Revised: 03/14/2021] [Accepted: 03/26/2021] [Indexed: 10/21/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Understanding and improving obstetrical quality and safety is an important goal of professional societies, and many interventions such as checklists, safety bundles, educational interventions, or other culture changes have been implemented to improve the quality of care provided to obstetrical patients. Although many factors contribute to delivery decisions, a reduced workload has addressed how provider issues such as fatigue or behaviors surrounding impending shift changes may influence the delivery mode and outcomes. OBJECTIVE The objective was to assess whether intrapartum obstetrical interventions and adverse outcomes differ based on the temporal proximity of the delivery to the attending's shift change. STUDY DESIGN This was a secondary analysis from a multicenter obstetrical cohort in which all patients with cephalic, singleton gestations who attempted vaginal birth were eligible for inclusion. The primary exposure used to quantify the relationship between the proximity of the provider to their shift change and a delivery intervention was the ratio of time from the most recent attending shift change to vaginal delivery or decision for cesarean delivery to the total length of the shift. Ratios were used to represent the proportion of time completed in the shift by normalizing for varying shift lengths. A sensitivity analysis restricted to patients who were delivered by physicians working 12-hour shifts was performed. Outcomes chosen included cesarean delivery, episiotomy, third- or fourth-degree perineal laceration, 5-minute Apgar score of <4, and neonatal intensive care unit admission. Chi-squared tests were used to evaluate outcomes based on the proportion of the attending's shift completed. Adjusted and unadjusted logistic models fitting a cubic spline (when indicated) were used to determine whether the frequency of outcomes throughout the shift occurred in a statistically significant, nonlinear pattern RESULTS: Of the 82,851 patients eligible for inclusion, 47,262 (57%) had ratio data available and constituted the analyzable sample. Deliveries were evenly distributed throughout shifts, with 50.6% taking place in the first half of shifts. There were no statistically significant differences in the frequency of cesarean delivery, episiotomy, third- or fourth-degree perineal lacerations, or 5-minute Apgar scores of <4 based on the proportion of the shift completed. The findings were unchanged when evaluated with a cubic spline in unadjusted and adjusted logistic models. Sensitivity analyses performed on the 22.2% of patients who were delivered by a physician completing a 12-hour shift showed similar findings. There was a small increase in the frequency of neonatal intensive care unit admissions with a greater proportion of the shift completed (adjusted P=.009), but the findings did not persist in the sensitivity analysis. CONCLUSION Clinically significant differences in obstetrical interventions and outcomes do not seem to exist based on the temporal proximity to the attending physician's shift change. Future work should attempt to directly study unit culture and provider fatigue to further investigate opportunities to improve obstetrical quality of care, and additional studies are needed to corroborate these findings in community settings.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION When a patient treated by immune checkpoint inhibitors for metastatic melanoma presents with pulmonary symptoms, several diagnoses are possible. We report a case of acute granulomatous lung disease secondary to repeated kayexalate inhalations, and probably stimulated by immunotherapy. CASE REPORT A patient treated with pembrolizumab and then ipilimumab presented with fever and acute shortness of breath. His pulmonary symptoms got progressively worse, leading to an acute respiratory distress syndrome. Chest CT displayed a pattern of non-specific organized pneumonia. Pulmonary infection, tumor progression, specific immune-related lung toxicity and immunotherapy-induced sarcoidosis were discussed. Histopathological examination of a lung biopsy showed a foreign body granulomatous macrophage reaction associated with crystalline, basophilic, purple and laminated elements, evoking kayexalate particles. These elements helped rewrite the diagnosis and confirmed a kayexalate-induced granulomatous lung disease secondary to repeated aspiration. The patient's respiratory condition got better following discontinuation of kayexalate together with systemic corticosteroids. Symptoms relapsed with resumption of the immunotherapy but were controlled with the addition of a new course of prolonged systemic corticosteroid therapy. We can hypothesize that immunotherapy played a role in the recurrence of the granulomatous lung reaction, or that there was an association between an aspiration pneumonia and an immunotherapy-induced lung toxicity. CONCLUSION Facing respiratory symptoms during immunotherapy, the treatment may be the cause, but lung biopsy should be performed rapidly to arrive to a certain diagnosis.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To describe the clinical presentation, treatments and prognosis of gastrointestinal (GI) involvement in adult IgA vasculitis (IgAV). METHODS Data from 260 adults with IgAV included in a French multicentre retrospective survey were analysed. Presentation and outcomes of patients with (GI+) and without (GI-) GI involvement were compared. RESULTS One hundred and thirty-seven (53%) patients had GI involvement. Initial manifestations were abdominal pain in 99%, intestinal bleeding in 31%, diarrhoea in 26% and acute surgical abdomen in only 4%. Abdominal imaging revealed thickening of intestinal wall in 61%, and endoscopies revealed abnormalities in 87%, mostly mucosal ulcerations. GI+ vs GI- patients were younger (46 ± 18 vs 54 ± 18 years; P = 0.0004), had more constitutional symptoms (43% vs 23%; P = 0.0005) and joint involvement (72 vs 50%; P = 0.0002), and higher CRP levels (3.7 vs 1.9 mg/dl; P = 0.001). Clinical response and relapse rates were comparable between groups, and all causes mortality (2 vs 4%) and IgAV-related mortality (1% vs 2%) as well. GI-related deaths were due to intestinal perforation and mesenteric ischaemia. CONCLUSION GI involvement is frequent in adult IgAV. GI involvement is frequent in adult IgAV. Mortality is not uncommon but does not seem to be specifically related to GI. Immunosuppressants should not be preferred as first-line therapy for GI+ patients but may be required in case of acute surgical abdomen.

Abstract
Background:An alert regarding about the tolerance of Interleukin 17 (IL-17) inhibitors has been issued from data of randomized controlled trials showing cases of de novo inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD). In a recent analysis of pooled data from 21 clinical trials, cases of IBD events (including Crohn’s disease (CD), ulcerative colitis (UC) and inflammatory bowel disease unclassified (IBDU)) were uncommon (1). Yet, real-world data are lacking.Objectives:To describe real-world data about patients treated by IL-17 inhibitors developing new onset IBD (CD or UC).Methods:A French national registry called MISSIL was started in February 2018 to collect the cases of patients treated by IL-17 inhibitors developing new onset IBD. This registry is conducted by rheumatologist, dermatologist and gastroenterologist learned societies specialized on immune-mediated inflammatory diseases. In France, secukinumab (SEK) has been granted market authorization since June 2016 and ixekizumab since April 2018.Results:24 cases under SEK were reported between February 2018 and January 2020: 3 patients with psoriasis and 21 patients with spondylwoarthritis. There were 20 patients with new onset CD and 4 with UC. Mean age was 51.7 ± 15.7 years old and 12/24 were female; 10 presented an axial spondyloarthritis, 5 a peripheral spondyloarthritis and 6 both,13/17 were HLA-B27 positive,7/19 had a radiographic sacroiliitis and 11/17 a MRI sacroiliitis. Only 2 were biological Disease-modifying antirheumatic drug (bDMARD)-naïve. Crohn’s disease was mainly located at the ileum, colon and rectum. The median time to onset of symptoms was 2 (1-6) months. The main symptoms were diarrhea, nausea and vomiting and loss of weight. Median CRP at the onset of symptoms was 68 mg/L (41-140.5); 21 patients underwent biopsies, 12 were in favor of CD. IL-17 inhibitors were consistently stopped. Patients were treated by corticosteroids (16/24), mesalazine (7/24), methotrexate (3/24), thiopurines (2/24), infliximab (9/243), adalimumab (3/24), golimumab (2/24), ustekinumab (5/24). The evolution was favorable under treatment with complete resolution (4/24), improvement (11/24) or stabilization (5/24). 3 patients worsened under treatment and 1 died (massive myocardial infarction).Conclusion:IBD flare in patients treated with IL-17 inhibitors are rare and lead to discuss the potential iatrogenic role of IL-17 inhibitor drugs. Further cases are needed to better characterize this complication. A case-control study will be conducted to identify patients at risk to develop IBD under IL-17 inhibitor.References:[1]Reich et al.

Abstract
Arginase is involved in a wide range of pathologies including cardiovascular diseases and infectious diseases whilst it is also a promising target to improve cancer immunotherapy. To date, only a limited number of inhibitors of arginase have been reported. Natural polyphenols, among them piceatannol, are moderate inhibitors of arginase. Herein, we report our efforts to investigate catechol binding by quantum chemistry and generate analogues of piceatannol. In this work, we synthesized a novel series of amino-polyphenols which were then evaluated as arginase inhibitors. Their structure-activity relationships were elucidated by deep quantum chemistry modelling. 4-((3,4-Dihydroxybenzyl)amino)benzene-1,2-diol 3t displays a mixed inhibition activity on bovine and human arginase I with IC50 (K i) values of 76 (82) μM and 89 μM, respectively.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Rituximab (RTX), currently recommended as first-line treatment in moderate to severe pemphigus vulgaris (PV) and superficial pemphigus (PS) along with initial systemic steroids, may also be used as second-line or subsequent treatment, and this therapeutic strategy was investigated in a real-life monocentre retrospective survey. MATERIAL AND METHODS All patients treated between January 2010 and March 2018 with RTX as second-line or subsequent treatment for moderate to severe PV or PS and followed for at least one year were included. The main objective was to evaluate rates and times of complete clinical remission (CCR) after a first course of RTX. The secondary objectives consisted mainly of treatment safety, and frequency and time to relapse after the initial CCR. RESULTS The 24 patients selected received on average 2 cycles of RTX (i.e. 24 initial cycles and 24 additional cycles in all) over a mean follow-up period of 45 months. 18/24 (75%) patients achieved initial CCR within a mean 7.7 months. Despite at least one relapse in 13/18 initially responding patients regardless of relapse time, 59% (14/24) and 33% (8/24) were either in CCR and off treatment, or in partial remission, whether treated or untreated, according to the latest patient news, with an overall response rate of 92%. Safety was fair in these fragile patients. DISCUSSION AND CONCLUSION This survey of the practical use of RTX confirms its interest in moderate to severe pemphigus as a second-line or subsequent treatment, a situation that probably remains relevant even if this molecule is increasingly used as first-line therapy.

Abstract
Cutaneous melanoma is one of the most aggressive cancers characterized by a high plasticity, a propensity for metastasis, and drug resistance. Melanomas are composed of phenotypically diverse subpopulations of tumor cells with heterogeneous molecular profiles that reflect intrinsic invasive abilities. In an attempt to identify novel factors of the melanoma invasive cell state, we previously investigated the nature of the invasive secretome by using a comparative proteomic approach. Here, we have extended this analysis to show that PTX3, an acute phase inflammatory glycoprotein, is one such factor secreted by invasive melanoma to promote tumor cell invasiveness. Elevated PTX3 production was observed in the population of MITFlow invasive cells but not in the population of MITFhigh differentiated melanoma cells. Consistently, MITF knockdown increased PTX3 expression in MITFhigh proliferative and poorly invasive cells. High levels of PTX3 were found in tissues and blood of metastatic melanoma patients, and in BRAF inhibitor-resistant melanoma cells displaying a mesenchymal invasive MITFlow phenotype. Genetic silencing of PTX3 in invasive melanoma cells dramatically impaired migration and invasion in vitro and in experimental lung extravasation assay in xenografted mice. In contrast, addition of melanoma-derived or recombinant PTX3, or expression of PTX3 enhanced motility of low migratory cells. Mechanistically, autocrine production of PTX3 by melanoma cells triggered an IKK/NFκB signaling pathway that promotes migration, invasion, and expression of the EMT factor TWIST1. Finally, we found that TLR4 and MYD88 knockdown inhibited PTX3-induced melanoma cell migration, suggesting that PTX3 functions through a TLR4-dependent pathway. Our work reveals that tumor-derived PTX3 contributes to melanoma cell invasion via targetable inflammation-related pathways. In addition to providing new insights into the biology of melanoma invasive behavior, this study underscores the notion that secreted PTX3 represents a potential biomarker and therapeutic target in a subpopulation of MITFlow invasive and/or refractory melanoma.

Abstract
Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) often affects extra-articular structures. Treatments used for arthritis are often also effective on the extra-articular manifestations, but exceptions are numerous, particularly for cardiovascular and pulmonary problems. Cardiovascular disorders mainly include complications related to atherosclerosis : they are probably the main contributor to the increased mortality observed in RA, must be specifically taken into account and largely determine the choice of treatments used to treat RA. The most problematic pulmonary complications are the different types of interstitial lung disease ; they too must be specifically managed and condition the choice of treatments.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Studies of early-term birth after demonstrated fetal lung maturity show that respiratory and other outcomes are worse with early-term birth (370-386 weeks) even after demonstrated fetal lung maturity when compared with full-term birth (390-406 weeks). However, these studies included medically indicated births and are therefore potentially limited by confounding by the indication for delivery. Thus, the increase in adverse outcomes might be due to the indication for early-term birth rather than the early-term birth itself. OBJECTIVE We examined the prevalence and risks of adverse neonatal outcomes associated with early-term birth after confirmed fetal lung maturity as compared with full-term birth in the absence of indications for early delivery. STUDY DESIGN This is a secondary analysis of an observational study of births to 115,502 women in 25 hospitals in the United States from 2008 through 2011. Singleton nonanomalous births at 37-40 weeks with no identifiable indication for delivery were included; early-term births after positive fetal lung maturity testing were compared with full-term births. The primary outcome was a composite of death, ventilator for ≥2 days, continuous positive airway pressure, proven sepsis, pneumonia or meningitis, treated hypoglycemia, hyperbilirubinemia (phototherapy), and 5-minute Apgar <7. Logistic regression and propensity score matching (both 1:1 and 1:2) were used. RESULTS In all, 48,137 births met inclusion criteria; the prevalence of fetal lung maturity testing in the absence of medical or obstetric indications for early delivery was 0.52% (n = 249). There were 180 (0.37%) early-term births after confirmed pulmonary maturity and 47,957 full-term births. Women in the former group were more likely to be non-Hispanic white, smoke, have received antenatal steroids, have induction, and have a cesarean. Risks of the composite (16.1% vs 5.4%; adjusted odds ratio, 3.2; 95% confidence interval, 2.1-4.8 from logistic regression) were more frequent with elective early-term birth. Propensity scores matching confirmed the increased primary composite in elective early-term births: adjusted odds ratios, 4.3 (95% confidence interval, 1.8-10.5) for 1:1 and 3.5 (95% confidence interval, 1.8-6.5) for 1:2 matching. Among components of the primary outcome, CPAP use and hyperbilirubinemia requiring phototherapy were significantly increased. Transient tachypnea of the newborn, neonatal intensive care unit admission, and prolonged neonatal intensive care unit stay (>2 days) were also increased with early-term birth. CONCLUSION Even with confirmed pulmonary maturity, early-term birth in the absence of medical or obstetric indications is associated with worse neonatal respiratory and hepatic outcomes compared with full-term birth, suggesting relative immaturity of these organ systems in early-term births.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To provide physicians with an understanding of the factors behind significant delays in the diagnosis of hidradenitis suppurativa (HS) in France. PATIENTS AND METHODS This prospective multicentre national study conducted from October 2015 to March 2016 included all patients consulting for HS. Patient data were collected by means of a standardized questionnaire. Univariate and multivariate analyses were conducted to collect factors associated with a significant time to diagnosis of at least 5.5years, defined as the period between the onset of initial clinical signs and the time of formal diagnosis. RESULTS The 16 participating centres enrolled 312 patients (62% women), of average age 35years. The average age at onset of HS was 22years. Before formal diagnosis by a dermatologist (64% of cases), 170 (54%), 114 (37%) and 45 (15%) patients had previously consulted at least 3, 5 and 10 general physicians, respectively. The average time between the initial clinical signs of HS, the first dermatology visit and the definitive diagnosis was 6.2 and 8.4 years, respectively. Active smoking (OR adjusted 1.85; P=0.027) and disease onset at a younger age (adjusted OR 0.92; P<0.001) were both associated with significant delays in diagnosis. CONCLUSION These results emphasized misdiagnosis among HS patients but did not evidence any association between either sociodemographic or economic characteristics and the existence of significant times to diagnosis.

Distinctive cutaneous and systemic features associated with specific antimyositis antibodies in adults with dermatomyositis: a prospective multicentric study of 117 patients. J Eur Acad Dermatol Venereol 2018; 32:1164-1172. [PMID: 29237090 DOI: 10.1111/jdv.14759] [Citation(s) in RCA: 21] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/18/2017] [Accepted: 11/29/2017] [Indexed: 12/12/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Identification of myositis-specific autoantibodies (MSAs) for dermatomyositis (DM) could allow the characterization of an antibody-associated clinical phenotype. OBJECTIVE We sought to define the clinical phenotype of DM and the risk of cancer, interstitial lung disease (ILD) and calcinosis based on MSA. METHODS A 3.5-year multicentre prospective study of adult DM patients was conducted to determine the clinical phenotype associated with MSAs and the presence of cancer, ILD and calcinosis. RESULTS MSAs were detected in 47.1% of 117 included patients. Patients with antimelanoma differentiation-associated protein-5 antibodies (13.7%) had significantly more palmar violaceous macules/papules [odds ratio (OR) 9.9], mechanic's hands (OR 8), cutaneous necrosis (OR 3.2), articular involvement (OR 15.2) and a higher risk of ILD (OR 25.3). Patients with antitranscriptional intermediary factor-1 antibodies (11.1%), antinuclear matrix protein-2 antibodies (6.8%) and antiaminoacyl-transfer RNA synthetase (5.1%) had, respectively, significantly more poikiloderma (OR 5.9), calcinosis (OR 9.8) and articular involvement (OR 15.2). Cutaneous necrosis was the only clinical manifestation significantly associated with cancer (OR 3.1). CONCLUSION Recognition of the adult DM phenotype associated with MSAs would allow more accurate appraisal of the risk of cancer, ILD and calcinosis.

Inflammasome Adaptor ASC Suppresses Apoptosis of Gastric Cancer Cells by an IL18-Mediated Inflammation-Independent Mechanism. Cancer Res 2017; 78:1293-1307.

Abstract
Inflammasomes are key regulators of innate immunity in chronic inflammatory disorders and autoimmune diseases, but their role in inflammation-associated tumorigenesis remains ill-defined. Here we reveal a protumorigenic role in gastric cancer for the key inflammasome adaptor apoptosis-related speck-like protein containing a CARD (ASC) and its effector cytokine IL18. Genetic ablation of ASC in the gp130F/F spontaneous mouse model of intestinal-type gastric cancer suppressed tumorigenesis by augmenting caspase-8-like apoptosis in the gastric epithelium, independently from effects on myeloid cells and mucosal inflammation. This phenotype was characterized by reduced activation of caspase-1 and NF-κB activation and reduced expression of mature IL18, but not IL1β, in gastric tumors. Genetic ablation of IL18 in the same model also suppressed gastric tumorigenesis, whereas blockade of IL1β and IL1α activity upon genetic ablation of the IL1 receptor had no effect. The specific protumorigenic role for IL18 was associated with high IL18 gene expression in the gastric tumor epithelium compared with IL1β, which was preferentially expressed in immune cells. Supporting an epithelial-specific role for IL18, we found it to be highly secreted from human gastric cancer cell lines. Moreover, IL18 blockade either by a neutralizing anti-IL18 antibody or by CRISPR/Cas9-driven deletion of ASC augmented apoptosis in human gastric cancer cells. In clinical specimens of human gastric cancer tumors, we observed a significant positive correlation between elevated mature IL18 protein and ASC mRNA levels. Collectively, our findings reveal the ASC/IL18 signaling axis as a candidate therapeutic target in gastric cancer.Significance: Inflammasome activation that elevates IL18 helps drive gastric cancer by protecting cancer cells against apoptosis, with potential implications for new therapeutic strategies in this setting.
