Abstract
The autoimmune inflammatory myopathy disease spectrum, commonly known as myositis, is a group of systemic diseases that mainly affect the muscles, skin and lungs. Biomarker assessment helps in understanding disease mechanisms, allowing for the implementation of precise strategies in the classification, diagnosis, and management of these diseases. This review examines the pathogenic mechanisms and highlights current data on blood and tissue biomarkers of autoimmune inflammatory myopathies.

Zhang X, Lyu X. Pyomyositis Secondary to Localized Cellulitis in a Dermatomyositis Patient: A Case Report and Review of Infectious Complications in Dermatomyositis. Clin Cosmet Investig Dermatol 2023; 16:2201-2209.

Abstract
Dermatomyositis (DM) is an autoimmune disorder characterized by proximal muscle weakness and distinct cutaneous features. Unfortunately, infection is a frequent and potentially life-threatening complication in patients with DM. Here, we present a case of pyomyositis in a patient with DM resulting from localized cellulitis. The patient also presented with subcutaneous calcification nodules and dermatomyositis-associated lipodermatosclerosis nodules. To our knowledge, there have been no reports of pyomyositis in patients with DM to date. Furthermore, we reviewed the infectious complications related to DM and polymyositis (PM). We found that idiopathic inflammatory myopathy (IIM) patients exhibit a considerable infection-related mortality rate, ranging from 4.3% to 7.2%. In IIM, infections were identified as the primary cause of mortality in a substantial proportion of cases, accounting for 22.0-83.3% of deaths. These findings have implications for the importance of identifying and managing infections in IIM patients and suggest the need for further research into infection-related complications in these patients.

Kinetics of SuPAR hemoadsorption in critical COVID-19 patients on renal replacement therapy. BMC Nephrol 2022; 23:371. [PMCID: PMC9673197 DOI: 10.1186/s12882-022-03003-2] [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: 02/17/2022] [Accepted: 11/09/2022] [Indexed: 11/19/2022] Open
Abstract
Background SARS-CoV-2 viral infection is associated with a rapid and vigorous systemic inflammatory response syndrome. Soluble urokinase-type plasminogen activator receptor (suPAR) is a novel biomarker, both indicative of inflammation and propagating it. Hemoadsorption has been proposed as a potential therapy in COVID-19 patients, therefore the aim of this study is to determine suPAR kinetics during hemoadsoprtion. Methods This was a prospective observational study of critical COVID-19 patients, enrolled when hemoperfusion therapy was initiated. Hemoadsorber was integrated into the continuous renal replacement therapy circuit. The first series of suPAR measurements was performed 10 minutes after the start of the session, sampling both incoming and outgoing lines of the adsorber. A second series of the measurements was performed beforefinishing the session with the same adsorber. Statistical significance level was set < 0.05. Results This study included 18 patients. In the beginning of the session the fraction of suPAR cleared across the adsorber was 29.5% [16-41], and in the end of the session it decreased to 7.2% [4-22], 4 times lower, p = 0.003. The median length of session was 21 hours, with minimal duration of 16 hours and maximal duration of 24 hours. The median suPAR before the procedure was 8.71 [7.18-10.78] and after the session was 7.35 [6.53-11.28] ng/ml. There was no statistically significant difference in suPAR concentrations before and after the session (p = 0.831). Conclusions This study concluded that in the beginning of the hemoadsorption procedure significant amount of suPAR is removed from the circulation. However, in the end of the procedure there is a substantial drop in adsorbed capacity. Furthermore, despite a substantial amount of suPAR cleared there is no significant difference in systemic suPAR concentrations before and after the hemoadsorption procedure.

Abstract
Background Heat shock proteins (Hsp) are chaperones playing essential roles in skeletal muscle physiology, adaptation to exercise or stress, and activation of inflammatory cells. We aimed to assess Hsp90 in patients with idiopathic inflammatory myopathies (IIM) and its association with IIM-related features. Methods Hsp90 plasma levels were analyzed in a cross-sectional cohort (277 IIM patients and 157 healthy controls [HC]) and two longitudinal cohorts to assess the effect of standard-of-care pharmacotherapy (n=39 in early disease and n=23 in established disease). Hsp90 and selected cytokines/chemokines were measured by commercially available ELISA and human Cytokine 27-plex Assay. Results Hsp90 plasma levels were increased in IIM patients compared to HC (median [IQR]: 20.2 [14.3–40.1] vs 9.8 [7.5–13.8] ng/mL, p<0.0001). Elevated Hsp90 was found in IIM patients with pulmonary, cardiac, esophageal, and skeletal muscle involvement, with higher disease activity or damage, and with elevated muscle enzymes and crucial cytokines/chemokines involved in the pathogenesis of myositis (p<0.05 for all). Plasma Hsp90 decreased upon pharmacological treatment in both patients with early and established disease. Notably, Hsp90 plasma levels were slightly superior to traditional biomarkers, such as C-reactive protein and creatine kinase, in differentiating IIM from HC, and IIM patients with cardiac involvement and interstitial lung disease from those without these manifestations. Conclusions Hsp90 is increased systemically in patients with IIM. Plasma Hsp90 could become an attractive soluble biomarker of disease activity and damage and a potential predictor of treatment response in IIM.

Abstract
In modern rheumatology, the problem of differential diagnosis of bacterial infection and active rheumatic process still retains its relevance. At the same time, it is very important to search for a biomarker - the gold standard for the diagnosis of an infection in patients with rheumatic diseases (RDs) in order to rapidly determine a treatment policy. This review analyzes the diagnostic significance and possibility of using some laboratory markers for bacterial infections in modern rheumatology. It emphasizes the importance of a multimarker approach that allows increasing the significance of individual parameters in the diagnosis of infections in RD.

Risk factors and outcomes of urosepsis in patients with calculous pyonephrosis receiving surgical intervention: a single-center retrospective study. BMC Anesthesiol 2019; 19:61. [PMID: 31039739 PMCID: PMC6492395 DOI: 10.1186/s12871-019-0729-3] [Citation(s) in RCA: 9] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/31/2018] [Accepted: 04/04/2019] [Indexed: 12/03/2022] Open
Abstract
Background Urosepsis is a catastrophic complication, which can easily develop into septic shock and lead to death if not diagnosed early and effectively treated in time. However, there is a lack of evidence on the risk factors and outcomes in calculous pyonephrosis patients. Therefore, this study was conducted to identify risk factors and outcomes of intra- and postoperative urosepsis in this particular population. Methods Clinical data of 287 patients with calculous pyonephrosis were collected. In the univariate and multivariate analysis, all patients were divided into urosepsis group and non-urosepsis group. The diagnosis of urosepsis was mainly on the basis of the criteria of American College of Chest Physicians (ACCP)/Society of Critical Care Medicine (SCCM). Patient characteristics and outcomes data were analyzed, and risk factors were assessed by binary logistic regression analysis. Results Of 287 patients, 41 (14.3%) acquired urosepsis. Univariate analysis showed that white blood cell (WBC > 10*10^9/L) before surgery (P = 0.027), surgery types (P = 0.009), hypotension during surgery (P < 0.001) and urgent surgery (P < 0.001) were associated with intra- and postoperative urosepsis for calculous pyonephrosis patients. In multivariate analysis, hypotension during surgery and urgent surgery were closely related to intra- and postoperative urosepsis. Outcome analysis suggested that patients developing urosepsis had a longer intensive care unit (ICU) stay and postoperative hospital stay and higher mortality. Conclusions Hypotension during surgery and urgent surgery were risk factors of intra- and postoperative urosepsis for calculous pyonephrosis patients, which may lead to a prolonged ICU stay, postoperative hospital stay and higher mortality.

Patients with anti-Jo1 antibodies display a characteristic IgG Fc-glycan profile which is further enhanced in anti-Jo1 autoantibodies. Sci Rep 2018; 8:17958. [PMID: 30560888 PMCID: PMC6298993 DOI: 10.1038/s41598-018-36395-z] [Citation(s) in RCA: 10] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/20/2018] [Accepted: 11/19/2018] [Indexed: 01/27/2023] Open
Abstract
IgG Fc-glycans affect IgG function and are altered in autoimmune diseases and autoantibodies. Anti-histidyl tRNA synthetase autoantibodies (anti-Jo1) are frequent in patients with idiopathic inflammatory myopathies (IIM) and anti-synthetase syndrome (ASS) with associated interstitial lung disease (ILD). Thus, we hypothesized that the total-IgG Fc-glycans from Jo1+ versus Jo1− patients and anti-Jo1-IgG would show characteristic differences, and that particular Fc-glycan features would be associated with specific clinical manifestations. By proteomics based mass spectrometry we observed a high abundance of agalactosylated IgG1 Fc-glycans in ASS/IIM patients (n = 44) compared to healthy age matched controls (n = 24). Using intra-individual normalization of the main agalactosylated glycan (FA2) of IgG1 vs FA2-IgG2, ASS/IIM and controls were distinguished with an area under the curve (AUC) of 79 ± 6%. For Jo1+ patients (n = 19) the AUCs went up to 88 ± 6%. Bisected and afucosylated Fc-glycans were significantly lower in Jo1+ compared to Jo1− patients. Anti-Jo1-IgG enriched from eleven patients contained even significantly lower abundances of bisected, afucosylated and galactosylated forms compared to matched total-IgG. ASS and ILD diagnosis, as well as lysozyme and thrombospondin correlated with Jo1+ characteristic Fc-glycan features. These results suggest that the anti-Jo1+ patient Fc-glycan profile contains phenotype specific features which may underlie the pathogenic role of Jo1 autoantibodies.
