[PMID: 37781682 PMCID: PMC10538620 DOI: 10.2478/rir-2023-0019] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/25/2023] [Accepted: 08/19/2023] [Indexed: 10/03/2023]
Abstract
Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), a prevalent autoimmune disease predominantly affecting women of childbearing age, presents ongoing challenges despite notable advances in diagnosis and treatment. Although survival rates for SLE patients have significantly improved, pregnancy continues to pose a considerable obstacle. Addressing this critical need for enhanced reproductive and prenatal care, there is a pressing imperative to establish standardized protocols for peri-gestational monitoring and treatment in SLE patients. This guideline is jointly sponsored by the National Clinical Research Center for Dermatologic and Immunologic Diseases (NCRC-DID), the Chinese Systemic Lupus Erythematosus Treatment and Research Group (CSTAR), and the Chinese Research Committee of Pregnancy and Reproduction in Autoimmune Rheumatic Diseases (CHOPARD). Thirteen pertinent clinical questions have been generated through several rounds of rigorous clinical and methodological expert discussions and selections for a comprehensive understanding of key aspects in this domain. Guided by thorough examination of research evidence and expert perspectives, the formulated recommendations aim to optimize pregnancy success rates, reduce maternal and infant mortality rates, and ultimately enhance the overall well-being of SLE patients.

Clin Exp Med 2022; 23:457-463. [PMID: 35612692 PMCID: PMC9130966 DOI: 10.1007/s10238-022-00832-1] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/18/2022] [Accepted: 04/14/2022] [Indexed: 11/26/2022]
Abstract
Vaccination is key in mastering the COVID-19 pandemic. Data on attitudes towards and safety of the SARS-CoV-2 inactivated vaccines in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) are limited. A post-vaccination cross-sectional survey was conducted to obtain data on attitudes towards and safety of the SARS-CoV-2 inactivated vaccines in SLE patients compared to healthy controls. A post-vaccination cross-sectional survey was conducted in 188 patients with SLE and in 190 healthy controls who had received at least one dose of SARS-CoV-2 inactivated vaccine to find out post-vaccination adverse event (AE) or SLE flares. A total of 188 patients with SLE and 190 healthy controls vaccinated with the two-dose regimen SARS-CoV-2 inactivated vaccine were enrolled in the study. The two groups were matched in age, sex, medical background, income, and education level. All the SLE patients were in disease remission or with low disease activity with a median age of 35 years, a sex constituent ratio of 87.4% female, and a median disease duration of 4 years. SLE patients had much more concerns about vaccination safety (44.7% vs. 15.8%, P < 0.001), and were much less willing to get vaccinated (57.4% vs. 88.4%, P < 0.001). SLE patients had more mild adverse events after the first vaccine dose (43.6% vs. 25.3%, P = 0.008), and less mild adverse events after the second vaccine dose (19.8% vs. 34.9%, P = 0.024), compared with healthy controls. The AEs were minor and there were no serious or major adverse events in both groups. In patients with SLE, the post-vaccination disease activity remained stable. One previously undiagnosed female progressed into symptomatic SLE after one week of vaccination. Although SLE patients had concerns about the safety of the SARS-CoV-2 vaccines, the inactivated vaccination was safe in patients with stable SLE.

Vaccines (Basel) 2021; 9:944. [PMID: 34579181 PMCID: PMC8470727 DOI: 10.3390/vaccines9090944] [Citation(s) in RCA: 53] [Impact Index Per Article: 17.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/26/2021] [Revised: 08/20/2021] [Accepted: 08/24/2021] [Indexed: 02/07/2023] Open
Abstract
(1) Background: Numerous vaccines are under preclinical and clinical development for prevention of severe course and lethal outcome of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). In light of high efficacy rates and satisfactory safety profiles, some agents have already reached approval and are now distributed worldwide, with varying availability. Real-world data on cutaneous adverse drug reactions (ADRs) remain limited. (2) Methods: We performed a literature research concerning cutaneous ADRs to different COVID-19 vaccines, and incorporated our own experiences. (3) Results: Injection site reactions are the most frequent side effects arising from all vaccine types. Moreover, delayed cutaneous ADRs may occur after several days, either as a primary manifestation or as a flare of a pre-existing inflammatory dermatosis. Cutaneous ADRs may be divided according to their cytokine profile, based on the preponderance of specific T-cell subsets (i.e., Th1, Th2, Th17/22, Tregs). Specific cutaneous ADRs mimic immunogenic reactions to the natural infection with SARS-CoV-2, which is associated with an abundance of type I interferons. (4) Conclusions: Further studies are required in order to determine the best suitable vaccine type for individual groups of patients, including patients suffering from chronic inflammatory dermatoses.
