Abstract
OBJECTIVE To investigate the risk of DM and evaluate the impact of SLE therapies on the risk of developing DM in patients with SLE. METHODS Electronic database searches of PubMed, Embase, Cochrane Library and Web of Science were performed from inception to February 2023. Cohort and cross-sectional studies that analysed the risk of DM in patients with SLE were included. The associations between diabetes and antirheumatic agents, such as antimalarials and glucocorticoids, were analysed in cohort studies. Data were pooled using fixed- or random-effects meta-analysis to estimate pooled odd ratios (OR), relative risks (RR) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs). This study was registered with PROSPERO (CRD42023402774). RESULTS A total of 37 studies (23 cross-sectional and 14 cohort studies) involving 266 537 patients with SLE were included. The pooled analyses from cross-sectional studies and cohort studies did not show an increased risk of DM in SLE patients (OR = 1.05, 95% CI 0.87-1.27; P = 0.63 and RR = 1.32, 95% CI 0.93-1.87; P = 0.12, respectively). However, several cohort studies consistently demonstrated a reduced risk of diabetes with antimalarials, while glucocorticoid use has been associated with an increased risk of developing diabetes. Age, sex, hypertension and immunosuppressants have not been identified as risk factors for DM in SLE patients. CONCLUSION Although there was no increased risk of DM in patients with SLE compared with controls, HCQ users or adherents had a decreased risk, whereas glucocorticoid users had an increased risk.

Abstract
Background Metabolic syndrome (MetS) in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) represents an additional burden and a poor prognostic factor for the onset or worsening of atherosclerosis and cardiovascular complications. In many patients with lupus nephritis (LN), MetS is often already manifested initially. Our work aimed to determine the frequency and characteristics of MetS in patients with LN, as well as the relationship components of MetS and characteristics of disease activity. Methods The clinical study included 67 patients with LN, 54 (80.59%) female and 13 (19.41%) male, with an average age of 42.86±14.46 years. Patients were divided into two groups: with MetS (35.82%) and without MetS (64.18%), active LN had (34 or 50.74%), and LN in remission (33 or 49.25%). We monitored clinical and biochemical parameters of interest. Results Comparing patients with LN collectively, as well as those with MetS and without MetS, we observed that patients with MetS were older (p=0.001), BMI (p<0.001), and systolic arterial pressure was higher (p=0.002), and smokers were more common in this group (p<0.001). In the analysis, increased triglycerides (p<0.001) and creatinine (p=0.027), and decreased albumin (p=0.050) and GFR (p=0.020) were observed in the group with MetS. MetS was present in 44.11% of patients with active LN and in 27.7% with LN in remission. The most common MetS parameter was arterial hypertension (76.6%), which correlated with GFR and creatinine; hypertriglyceridemia (47.8%), which is correlated with anti-ds-DNA Ab, erythrocyturia, proteinuria, and SLEDAI/r index; decreased HDL cholesterol (28.4%) which significantly correlated with albumin, C3 and anti-ds-DNA Ab. Conclusions In our patients with LN, MetS was associated with older age, impaired kidney function, and smoking. The most common parameter of MetS was arterial hypertension and dyslipidemia, which were significantly correlated with disease activity parameters, indicating an increased risk of cardiovascular complications in this group of patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES An association has been suggested between premorbid type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and the risk of multiple sclerosis (MS). However, little is known about the risk of developing T2DM in MS and neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder (NMOSD). This study aimed to determine the T2DM risk in patients with MS and NMSOD. METHODS The Korean National Health Insurance Service database was analyzed, and 1,801 and 1,721 adults with MS and NMOSD, respectively, who were free of T2DM between January 2010 and December 2017, were included. Matched controls were selected based on age, sex, and the presence of hypertension and dyslipidemia. RESULTS The risk of developing T2DM was 1.54 times higher in NMOSD than in the controls (adjusted hazard ratio [aHR], 95 % confidence interval [CI] = 1.20-1.96). However, increased T2DM risk was not observed in MS (aHR = 1.13, 95 % CI = 0.91-1.42). The T2DM risk in patients with NMOSD was higher in those who received steroid treatment (aHR = 1.77, 95 % CI = 1.36-2.30) but not in those who did not (aHR = 0.59, 95 % CI = 0.24-1.43, p for interaction = 0.02). DISCUSSION T2DM risk was increased in NMOSD but not in MS. Administering steroid treatment to patients with NMOSD may increase their T2DM risk.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Although mood disorders are prevalent among systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) patients, they are usually underrecognized. This study aimed to estimate the prevalence of anxiety and depression among Saudi SLE patients. METHODS This cross-sectional study was conducted among SLE patients from July 2022 to June 2023 in the Eastern Province of Saudi Arabia. A self-reported questionnaire was used to collect the data through validated tools including the Hamilton Anxiety Rating Scale-A and the Beck Depression Inventory score. RESULTS There were 133 females (91.7%) and 12 males (8.3%) included in this study. Based on the HAM-A score, 45.5% of participants had an anxiety disorder, and according to the BDI score, 46.2% had a depression disorder. Anxiety and depression were significantly associated with a longer duration of SLE, unemployment status, smoking, and the presence of comorbidities. Moreover, the present study found a significant association between depression and male gender. CONCLUSION This study found that Saudi SLE patients have a high prevalence of both anxiety and depression. Therefore, SLE patients should be screened for neuropsychiatric disorders during routine follow-ups and managed as early as possible.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Observational studies indicate a significant correlation between systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) and endocrine and metabolic disorders, but the causal association between SLE and endocrine and metabolic disorders remains unclear due to the reverse causality and confounding biases commonly presented in conventional observational research. This study endeavors to uncover the causal association between SLE and three common endocrine and metabolic disorders, including Graves' disease (GD), type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), and osteoporosis (OP). METHODS We used genome-wide association study data for SLE and three endocrine and metabolic disorders in an East Asian population, employing bidirectional two-sample Mendelian randomization (MR) analysis and sensitivity analysis to ascertain the causal association between SLE and endocrine and metabolic disorders. RESULTS A multiplicative random-effect inverse-variance weighted approach revealed a significant positive correlation between SLE and an elevated risk of GD with an odds ratio (OR) of 1.12 (95% CI: 1.04-1.22, p < .01), and inverse-variance weighted (IVW) analysis also indicated that SLE increased the risk of OP with an OR of 1.035 (95% CI: 1.003-1.068, p < .05). Additionally, GD causally affected SLE in an IVW analysis after Bonferroni correction, with an OR of 1.33 (95% CI: 1.19-1.49, p < .05/3), but the application of multivariable MR analysis resulted in the absence of a causal association of GD on SLE (OR 1.047, 95% CI: 0.952-1.151, p > .05). Lastly, the robustness and validity of the findings were verified through a sensitivity analysis. CONCLUSIONS We confirmed that SLE has a causal effect on GD as well as OP, but no evidence exists to substantiate a causal link between SLE and T2DM. Our study offers valuable contributions for uncovering the etiology of SLE and endocrine and metabolic disorders and furthering disease risk research while providing potential targets for disease monitoring and therapeutic intervention.

Abstract
New pathophysiological insights are now available on comorbidities in rheumatic diseases (RDs). Several nationwide studies point to the fact that comorbid diabetes mellitus (DM) increases the risk of adverse outcomes in patients with various RDs. Genetic factors, intensity of systemic inflammation, anti-inflammatory potential of therapeutic agents, and duration of RDs have been insufficiently explored in the context of comorbidities. Some disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs (DMARDs) have demonstrated a potential to improve the glycemic control while glucocorticoids (GCs) have worsened it, particularly in systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) and rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Anti-TNFalpha agents in combination with hydroxychloroquine (HCQ) have been associated with a reduced risk of DM in patients with RA, ankylosing spondylitis (AS), Sjögren syndrome (SS), and SLE. Better understanding of confounding factor of currently available antirheumatic therapies in patients with DM and RDs will pave the way for a tailored approach, limiting the severity of clinical manifestations and reducing the mortality risk.

Abstract
Perfluoroalkyl and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFASs) may have a role in impaired health. However, the data on the association between PFASs and Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) have been limited. We designed a population-based case-control study in China and evaluated the association. 100 normal persons (Control) and 100 SLE patients (Case) were obtained from 113 controls and 125 cases according to matching conditions. Serum samples were collected by venipuncture for UHPLC-MRM-MS Analysis to obtain the concentration of five PFASs in participants. Demographic characterization description was performed for the two groups of participants, the PFASs concentration distribution of the two groups was described and compared, then divided into three tiers (< 50th, 50th ~ 75th, > 75th) for subsequent analysis. Conditional logistic regression models were utilized to calculate the odds ratios (ORs) and 95% CIs for SLE. Relationship between changes in the concentration of PFASs and the risk of SLE assessed by restricted cubic spline. As the highest serum levels of the five PFASs tested in this study population, the highest perfluoroundecanoic acid (PFUnA) quartile had a 2.78-fold (95%CI: 1.270, 6.10) compared with the lowest quartile of PFUnA exposure, other types of PFASs also showed high association with SLE as well as PFASs mixture. Additionally, the exposure of PFASs exist a dose-response relationship (ptrend < 0.05). This risk association remained be found after adjusting the covariates in model 1 (adjustment of BMI) and in model 2(adjustment of BMI, smoking, drinking, hypertension and leukocyte). The restricted cubic spline illustrated a gradual increase in the possible risk of SLE with the increasing exposure of PFASs components levels. Our study firstly revealed that PFASs are risk factors for SLE and PFASs exposures are associated with SLE risk in a dose - response manner. Evidence from larger and more adequately powered cohort studies is needed to confirm our results.
