Abstract
BackgroundOcular and Neurobehçet’s Disease (NBD) are the most severe manifestations of Behcet’s disease (1-4). NBD can be classified as a) primary neural parenchymal lesions, also known as parenchymal NBD (p-NBD) or b) secondary to vascular involvement or non-parenchymal NBD (np-NBD) (4). Response to biologic therapy (BT) in these two refractory subtypes of NBD is unknown.ObjectivesTo assess efficacy and safety of BT in refractory subtypes of NBD.MethodsOpen-label multicenter study of refractory NBD from 21 different referral National Hospitals. NBD diagnosis was based on the International Consensus Recommendation criteria (4). Efficacy was determined by complete or partial response and no-response. Complete, partial or no response was defined according to the resolution of the neurological syndrome (signs and/or symptoms) after the BT onset.ResultsWe studied 41 patients (21 women/20 men; mean age: 40.6±10.8 years). NBD was classified as p-NBD (n= 33, 80.5%) and np-NBD (n=17, 41.5%). There were no significant differences in baseline general features and in neurological clinical response in both subgroups (Table 1 and Figure 1). The first BT used in p-NBD were Infliximab (IFX) (n=15), Adalimumab (ADA) (n=11), Golimumab (GLM) (n=3), Tocilizumab (TCZ) (n=2) and Etanercept (ETN) (n=2) and in np-NBD were IFX (n=9), ADA (n=6), TCZ (n=1) and ETN (n=1).Table 1.Main features of p-NBD and np-NBDTotalp-NBDnp-NBDP p-NBD vs np-NBDAge at biological therapy initiation, years (mean±SD)44±13.941.4±9.639.4±10.60.412Gender, n (m/f) (%)21/20 (48.8/52.2)18/15 (54.5/45.5)5/12 (29.4/70.6)0.091HLAB51 +/ patients tested, n (%)15/31 (57.7)14/25 (58.3)4/10 (40)0.391Oral aphthae, n (%)40 (97.6)32 (97)15 (88.2)0.323Cutaneous involvement, n (%)28 (63.4)23 (69.7)10 (58.8)0.603Ocular involvement, n (%)21 (48.8)15 (45.5)9 (52.9)0.616Vascular involvement, n (%)9 (22)10 (30.3)7 (41.2)0.442Articular involvement, n (%)9 (22)7 (21.2)3 (17.6)0.765Previous conventional Immunosuppressive drugs to BTAzathioprine24 (58.5)20 (60.6)10 (58.8)-Methotrexate16 (39.0)12 (36.4)3 (17.6)-Cyclophosphamide13 (31.7)13 (39.4)5 (29.4)-Cyclosporine A9 (22.0)8 (24.2)3 (17.6)-Mycophenolate Mofetil2 (4.9)2 (6.1)0-Figure 1.Response to biological therapy according to NBD subtypes.After an overall mean follow-up of 57.5±50.9 months BT was switched in 22 patients due to inefficacy (n=16) or Adverse Effects (AE) (n=6) and in 4 cases was definitively discontinued because of complete prolonged remission (n=3) or AE (n=1). AE were observed in 7 (17.1%) patients. Severe AE were observed in 2 cases, one due to demyelinating disease and the other due to pulmonary tuberculosis, both in patients undergoing IFX therapy. The other 6 AE were infusion reaction to IFX (n=1), IFX-induced psoriasis (n=1), IFX-induced acneiform eruption (n=1), infusion reaction to TCZ (n=1), intolerance to IFX and recurrent mild infections (n=1) and erosive lichen planus and bullous impetigo (n=1).ConclusionIn our series, BT seems equally effective and safe in both refractory p-NBD and np-NBD.References[1]Martín-Varillas JL, et al.

Abstract
Background:Neuro-Behçet’s disease (NBD) is a severe complication of Behcet’s disease (BD). Despite well-established therapies with glucocorticoids and conventional immunosuppressants (cIS), a significant proportion of patients are refractory.Objectives:To assess efficacy and safety of biologic therapy (BT) in NBD refractory to glucocorticoids and at least one cIS.Methods:Open-label multicenter study of refractory NBD from 23 different referral Spanish Hospitals. Main outcome was neurological response. Secondarily, analytical efficacy was measured by Erythrocyte Sedimentation Rate (ESR), C-Reactive Protein (CRP) and Hemoglobin (Hb) at baseline, 6 months, 1 year and 2 years.Results:We studied 42 patients (21 women/ 21 men; mean age 40.4±10.8 years). HLA B51 was positive in 15 out of 37 (40.5%) patients tested. Non-neurological manifestations were oral ulcers (n=41, 97.6%), genital ulcers (n=31, 73.8%), skin lesions (n=28, 66.7%), arthralgia (n=27, 64.3%), uveitis (n=21, 50.0%), arthritis (n=9, 21.4%), venous thrombosis (n=9, 21.4%) and arterial thrombosis (n=4, 9.5%). The underlying neurologic manifestation were parenchymal (n=34, 81.0 %) and non-parenchymal (n=17, 40.5%) involvement (Table 1). The first BT used was infliximab (n=20), adalimumab (n=13), golimumab (n=3), tocilizumab (n=3) and etanercept (n=2).After 58.2±51.4 months since initiation of BT, neurological response was complete (n=27; 64.3%), or partial (n=11, 26.1%) (Figure 1). Only 4 (9.5%) patients did not respond. After 6 months of BT, ESR improved from.31.5±25.6 to 15.3±11.9 mm/h (p=0.005), CRP from 1.4 [0.2-12.8] to 0.3[0.1-3] mg/dL (p= 0.002) and Hb from 13.1±1.6 to 13.8±1.3 g/dL (p=0.005).Figure 1.Neurological clinical response to biological therapy.Primary failure was observed in 16 (38.1%) patients due to inefficacy (n=11, 68.8%) or adverse effects (n=5, 31.3%). Similarly, causes of secondary failure (n=6, 14.3%) were inefficacy (n=5, 83.3%) and adverse effects (n=1, 16.7%). No serious adverse effects were observed.Conclusion:BT, especially monoclonal anti-TNF drugs, seems to be effective and safe in refractory NBD.Table 1.Neurologic manifestation of 42 patients with refractory neurobehçet's disease treated with biologic therapy.Parenchymal subtype, n (%)34 (81.0)-Hemiparesis8 (19.1)-Polineuropathy8 (19.1)-Encephalopathy6 (14.3)-Cognitive impairments4 (9.5)-Optic neuropathy4 (9.5)-Ophtalmoparesis4 (9.5)-Other cranial nerve involvement3 (7.1)-Hemihypoesthesia3 (7.1)-Cerebellar dysphasia1 (2.4)-Cerebellar involvement1 (2.4)-Non-steroidal psicosis1 (2.4)Non-parenchymal subtype, n (%)17 (40.5)-Aseptic meningitis12(28.6)-Thrombosis4 (9.5)-Intracranial hypertension1 (2.4)Disclosure of Interests:Alba Herrero-Morant: None declared, José Luis Martín-Varillas Grant/research support from: AbbVie, Pfizer, Lilly, Janssen, and Celgene, Santos Castañeda: None declared, Iñigo González-Mazón: None declared, Olga Maiz: None declared, Ana Blanco Speakers bureau: AbbVie, Julio Sánchez: None declared, Norberto Ortego: None declared, Enrique Raya Speakers bureau: MSD, Grant/research support from: AbbVie, Alejandro Olive: None declared, Anahy Brandy-Garcia: None declared, Águeda Prior-Español: None declared, Clara Moriano: None declared, Elvira Diez Alvarez: None declared, Rafael Melero: None declared, Jenaro Graña: None declared, Álvaro Seijas-López: None declared, ANA URRUTICOECHEA-ARANA: None declared, Angel Ramos Calvo: None declared, Concepción Delgado Beltrán: None declared, Marta Loredo Martínez: None declared, Eva Salgado-Pérez: None declared, Francisca Sivera: None declared, Ignacio Torre-Salaberri: None declared, J.

Abstract
Background:Tocilizumab (TCZ) has shown to be effective for large vessel vasculitis including Takayasu arteritis (TAK) (1-3). Most evidence in TAK comes from Asian patients. However, white patients seem to have different clinical and prognostic features.Objectives:Our aims were to: a) assess the efficacy and safety of TCZ in white patients with refractory TAK, b) determine if clinical improvement correlates with imaging outcomes, c) compare TCZ in monotherapy (TCZMONO) vs combined with conventional immunosuppressive drugs (TCZCOMBO)Methods:Multicenter study of white patients with refractory TAK who received TCZ.Outcomes variables were remission, glucocorticoid-sparing effect, improvement in imaging techniques, and adverse events. A comparative study between patients who received TCZMONO and TCZCOMBO was performed.Results:54 patients (46 women/8 men; median age 42.0 [32.5-50.5] years). TCZ was started after 12.0 [3.0-31.5] months since TAK diagnosis. Remission was achieved in 12/54 (22.2%), 19/49 (38.8%), 23/44 (52.3%) and 27/36 (75%) at 1, 3, 6 and 12 months, respectively. Prednisone dose was reduced from 30.0 [12.5-50.0] to 5.0 [0.0-5.6] mg/day at 12 months (Table 1). 10 (26.3%) of the 38 patients in whom an imaging follow-up test was performed showed no radiographic improvement after a median of 9.0 [6.0-14.0] months. 4 of them were in clinical remission.23 (42.6%) patients were on TCZMONO and 31 (57.4%) on TCZCOMBO: MTX (n=28), cyclosporine A (n=2), azathioprine (n=1). Patients on TCZCOMBO were younger (38.0 [27.0-46.0] vs 45 [38.0-57.0] years; p= 0.048), with a trend to longer TAK duration (21.0 [6.0-38.0] vs 6.0 [1.0-23.0] months; p= 0.08) and higher C-reactive protein (2.4 [0.7-5.6] vs 1.3 [0.3-3.3] mg/dL; p=0.16). Despite these differences, similar outcomes were observed in both groups (log rank p=0.862) (Figure 1). Relevant adverse events were reported in 6 (11.1%) patients, but only 3 developed severe events that required TCZ withdrawal.Table 1.Baselinen=54Month 1N=54Month 3N=49Month 6N=44Month 12N=36Clinical remission, n (%)12 (22.2)19 (38.8)23 (52.3)27 (75.0)Laboratory improvementCRP (mg/dL), median [IQR]1.5 [0.5-3.5]0.2 [0.1-0.7]*0.2 [0.5-0.5]*0.2 [0.1-0.5]*0.1 [0.0-0.4]*ESR (mm/1sthour), median [IQR]30.5 [8.7-52.7]7.0 [3.0-14.0]*4.5 [2.0-8.0]*5.0[2.0-6.0]*4.0 [2.0-9.5]*Hemoglobin (g/dL), mean ± SD12.4 ±1.513.0 ±1.2*13.0 ±1.4*13.2 ±1.5*12.9 ±1.6*Prednisone dose, median [IQR]30.0 [12.5-50.0]20.0 [10.0-30.0]*10.0 [5.0-20.0]*5.0 [5.0-10.5]*5.0 [0.0-5.6]*CRP: C-Reactive Protein; ESR: Erythrocyte Sedimentation Rate; IQR: interquartile range; n: number. *p<0.01 vs baseline (Wilcoxon test).Conclusion:TCZ is effective and safe in white patients with refractory TAK.

Abstract
Systemic sclerosis (SSc) is a rare, multisystem disease showing a large individual variability in disease progression and prognosis. In the present study, we assess survival, causes of death, and risk factors of mortality in a large series of Spanish SSc patients. Consecutive SSc patients fulfilling criteria of the classification by LeRoy were recruited in the survey. Kaplan-Meier and Cox proportional-hazards models were used to analyze survival and to identify predictors of mortality. Among 879 consecutive patients, 138 (15.7%) deaths were registered. Seventy-six out of 138 (55%) deceased patients were due to causes attributed to SSc, and pulmonary hypertension (PH) was the leading cause in 23 (16.6%) patients. Survival rates were 96%, 93%, 83%, and 73% at 5, 10, 20, and 30 years after the first symptom, respectively. Survival rates for diffuse cutaneous SSc (dcSSc) and limited cutaneous SSc were 91%, 86%, 64%, and 39%; and 97%, 95%, 85%, and 81% at 5, 10, 20, and 30 years, respectively (log-rank: 67.63, P < 0.0001). The dcSSc subset, male sex, age at disease onset older than 65 years, digital ulcers, interstitial lung disease (ILD), PH, heart involvement, scleroderma renal crisis (SRC), presence of antitopoisomerase I and absence of anticentromere antibodies, and active capillaroscopic pattern showed reduced survival rate. In a multivariate analysis, older age at disease onset, dcSSc, ILD, PH, and SRC were independent risk factors for mortality. In the present study involving a large cohort of SSc patients, a high prevalence of disease-related causes of death was demonstrated. Older age at disease onset, dcSSc, ILD, PH, and SRC were identified as independent prognostic factors.

Off-label use of rituximab in 196 patients with severe, refractory systemic autoimmune diseases. Clin Exp Rheumatol 2010; 28:468-476. [PMID: 20525449] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/12/2009] [Accepted: 01/20/2010] [Indexed: 05/29/2023]
Abstract
OBJECTIVES To analyse the safety and efficacy of the off-label use of rituximab in patients with severe, refractory systemic autoimmune diseases. METHODS In 2006, the Study Group on Autoimmune Diseases of the Spanish Society of Internal Medicine created the BIOGEAS project, a multicenter study devoted to collecting data on the use of biological agents in adult patients with systemic autoimmune diseases refractory to standard therapies (failure of at least two immunosuppressive agents). RESULTS One hundred and ninety-six patients with systemic autoimmune diseases treated with rituximab have been included in the Registry (158 women and 38 men, mean age 43 years). Systemic autoimmune diseases included systemic lupus erythematosus (107 cases), inflammatory myopathies (20 cases), ANCA-related vasculitides (19 cases), Sjögren's syndrome (15 cases) and other diseases (35 cases). A therapeutic response was evaluable in 194 cases: 99 (51%) achieved a complete response, 51 (26%) a partial response and 44 (23%) were classified as non-responders. After a mean follow-up of 27.56+/-1.32 months, 44 (29%) out of the 150 responders patients relapsed. There were 40 adverse events reported in 33 (16%) of the 196 patients. The most frequent adverse events were infections, with 24 episodes being described in 19 patients. Thirteen (7%) patients died, mainly due to disease progression (7 cases) and infection (3 cases). CONCLUSIONS Although not yet licensed for this use, rituximab is currently used to treat severe, refractory systemic autoimmune diseases, with the most favourable results being observed in Sjögren's syndrome, inflammatory myopathies, systemic lupus erythematosus and cryoglobulinemia.

Abstract
A 50-year-old male developed Hydrops of Gallbladder during the course of Epstein-Barr virus infection. The patient had a history of acute encephalitis one month prior to admission. Physical examination revealed jaundice and hepatomegaly. Liver function tests were abnormal and the white blood count was normal with 15% of atypical lymphocytes. Ultrasonography revealed a distended gall-bladder without wall thickening or cholelithiasis. The diagnoses of primary Epstein-Barr infection was made by positivity from EBV VCA IgM serological study. Two weeks later, total clinical, biochemical and ultrasonography resolution were observed. We comment this exceptionally presentation of EBV infection. The great variability of clinical pictures of Infectious Mononucleosis was emphasized.

Abstract
We present a new case of Whipple's disease. The patient have a clinical history of steatorrhea and diarrhea of various years of evolution with hyperpigmentation of skin and mucosae and migratory polyarthralgias with inflammatory sings. The biochemicals analysis for rheumatoid and endocrinological diseases were negatives. A endoscopically yeyunal biopsy was performed and the diagnosis of Whipple's disease was made. We comment this clinical presentation of Whipple's disease with a seronegative inflammatory rheumatological disease. The differential diagnosis with seronegative arthritis was emphasized.

Abstract
The aim of the present work was to assess the prevalence of the endemic goiter in Asturias southwestern area (46,000 inhabitants; 6,638 in school age), after 10 years of iodized salt introduction in diet. 317 schooling children were randomly chosen (stratified by age, sex and geographic area). We evaluated thyroid gland size and urinary iodine excretion (microgram of iodine per gram of creatinine = I/C). Previously, studies of infantile population suggested a 63% of prevalence. Our results indicate a decrease to 16.4% of endemic goiter prevalence. Nevertheless, the success of iodine prophylaxis was heterogeneous and not good in some case: point out Ibias population with a prevalence of 48.5% (2,000 inhabitants and 353 in schooling). Remainder population was prevalences between 6.9% and 19.8%. The mean of urinary iodine excretion increased to I/C = 106 (previously I/C = 53). The smallest index I/C become to Ibias population = 78. (p < 0.01 and p < 0.05 with regard to Cangas del Narcea and Tineo population respectively). Only 2 of the 52 cases of goiter were hypothyroidism (but because of autoimmune thyroiditis). We conclude that iodine prophylaxis with salt was effective generally, in order to diminish the endemic goiter in the area.

Abstract
We conducted a 6-year study of 110 patients with thyroid nodular disease in a previously goitrogenic area. The aim of the present work was to establish its incidence, to determine if multinodular goiter and autonomous thyroid nodule have the same analytical and clinical behaviour and to verify if the iodation campaign had resulted in the development of thyrotoxicosis induced by iodine. The results demonstrated an incidence of 0.4 per 1,000 population and per year. The two modalities of thyroid nodular disease did not present any clinical and analytical differences. 58.2% of the patients had hyperthyroidism, 53.1% of which were T-4 thyrotoxicosis, 12.5% T-3 thyrotoxicosis and 34.4%, subclinical hyperthyroidism. 8.2% of the patients under study had hyperthyroidism induced by iodine (Jod Basedow), with iodide excretion values higher that 3 standard deviations with respect to the population average (> 220 micrograms/g creatinine).

Abstract
Through a percutaneous intrarenal injection of 2 ml cyanoacrylic ester to each kidney, acute renal failure was induced in 10 experimental rabbits. Seven of the animals died as a consequence of uremia before a period of 64 hours. The other three remained alive for 96 hours although suffering from stable renal failure. Cyanoacrylic ester solidifies immediately after injection, leading to a hardened body which fills the renal pelvis, ureters and also the renal vessels. Each injection induces hydronephrosis and necrotic-hemorrhagic lesions, and infarcts in the case of vascular injection. With this simple technique immediate acute renal failure can be obtained experimentally without causing trauma or involving extrarenal structures.
