Abstract
BACKGROUND some patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) treated with antiTNF develop drug-induced psoriasis (antiTNF-IP). Several therapeutic strategies are possible. AIMS to assess the management of antiTNF-IP in IBD, and its impact in both diseases. METHODS patients with antiTNF-IP from ENEIDA registry were included. Therapeutic strategy was classified as continuing the same antiTNF, stopping antiTNF, switch to another antiTNF or swap to a non-antiTNF biologic. IP severity and IBD activity were assessed at baseline and 16, 32 and 54 weeks. RESULTS 234 patients were included. At baseline, antiTNF-IP was moderate-severe in 60 % of them, and IBD was in remission in 80 %. Therapeutic strategy was associated to antiTNF-IP severity (p < 0.001). AntiTNF-IP improved at week 54 with all strategies, but continuing with the same antiTNF showed the worst results (p = 0.042). Among patients with IBD in remission, relapse was higher in those who stopped antiTNF (p = 0.025). In multivariate analysis, stopping antiTNF, trunk and palms and soles location were associated with antiTNF-IP remission; female sex and previous surgery in Crohn´s disease with IBD relapse. CONCLUSION skin lesions severity and IBD activity seem to determine antiTNF-IP management. Continuing antiTNF in mild antiTNF-IP, and swap to ustekinumab or switch to another antiTNF in moderate-severe cases, are suitable strategies.

Abstract
Psoriasis is a chronic inflammatory skin disease. It is associated with many autoimmune diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis, Crohn's disease and thyroid diseases. Graves' disease (GD) is a common organ-specific autoimmune disease characterized by diffuse goitre and thyrotoxicosis. Management of psoriasis patients with GD is challenging. This current report presents the case of a 34-year-old female patient with refractory psoriasis with GD who was hospitalized for drug eruption and then experienced new-onset erythema and scaling following treatment with adalimumab and secukinumab. Despite the sequential move to phototherapy, tofacitinib and ustekinumab, the erythema and scaling continued unabated and exacerbated. Finally, switching to guselkumab resulted in the psoriasis lesions significantly improving. These findings suggest that guselkumab might be an effective treatment option for refractory psoriasis combined with GD.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Tumor necrosis factor α (TNF) inhibitors are used to treat different inflammatory diseases. Although these biologics have an adequate safety profile, they have been associated with paradoxical reactions. MATERIAL AND METHODS Retrospective review of patients on TNF inhibitor therapy who developed a paradoxical skin reaction and were seen at the dermatology department of Hospital Universitari Parc Taulí in Sabadell, Spain. RESULTS We collected data on 30 patients under treatment with a TNF inhibitor who developed an immune-mediated skin reaction in the form of psoriasis (90%), alopecia (6.7%), or neutrophilic dermatitis (3.3%). The most common drugs involved were adalimumab (56.7%) and infliximab (40%). Psoriasiform reactions mostly manifested as generalized plaques (62.9%) or palmoplantar pustulosis (37%). Thirteen patients (43.3%) continued on the same TNF inhibitor and 12 of them (92.3%) achieved partial or complete resolution of lesions. Five patients were switched to a different TNF inhibitor, but none of them achieved complete resolution. Eight patients were switched to a biologic with a different target, and 5 of them (62.5%) achieved partial or complete resolution. CONCLUSIONS Paradoxical reactions during TNF inhibitor therapy do not always require a change of treatment. In our series, the addition of a topical and/or systemic treatment resolved the skin lesions in more than half of the patients, and switching to a drug with a different target was more effective. A change of strategy should be contemplated in more serious cases.

Abstract
Ankylosing spondylitis (AS) is a chronic immune-mediated inflammatory disorder involving the sacroiliac (SI) joints, the spine and often the hips. Biologic therapy has been shown to be efficacious in patients with AS and could improve patients' quality of life. With the increased use of tumor necrosis factor-ɑ (TNF-ɑ) inhibitors, more paradoxical reactions have been revealed. However, the treatment option for patients with AS is still a challenge when refractory paradoxical palmoplantar pustulosis appeared after the use of TNF-ɑ inhibitors. We reported the case of a 45-year-old male patient with AS treated with adalimumab treatment who developed a refractory paradoxical palmoplantar pustulosis after failure of prior secukinumab treatment. A dramatic improvement was seen in all skin and low back pain after the use of ixekizumab. We conclude that, in TNF-α inhibitors induced refractory paradoxical palmoplantar pustulosis, ixekizumab should be considered as an alternative option to choose from.

Abstract
Today, anti-12/IL23, anti-IL17, and anti-IL23 provide more efficacious and/or safer treatment options for psoriasis. Though, anti-TNF remains a gold standard in the therapy of chronic inflammatory diseases. Paradoxical psoriasis has been reported to occur in patients treated with TNF-α inhibitors. According to the existing literature, including case reports, most patients with paradoxical psoriasis chose to stop the treatment immediately. This article presents a case series involving 150 patients with psoriasis who received treatments with TNF-α inhibitors. We observed 10 (6.7%) patients developing paradoxical psoriasis, and they rejected the recommendation of immediate discontinuation and decided to continue the original treatment. Surprisingly, 80% of them achieved remission again after the aggravation of symptoms and did not have any other serious adverse event. However, there is currently little research that has clarified the mechanism of paradoxical psoriasis. Therefore, we also presented a review of the literature to determine the pathogenesis of paradoxical psoriasis and speculated on the possible causes of the observed transient exacerbation cases. Investigation of the pathogenesis of this paradoxical adverse reaction not only is helpful to guide clinicians to better manage patients, but also may contribute to the discovery of new therapeutic targets in the future.

Abstract
The past 2 decades have seen a revolution in our approach to therapeutic immunosuppression. We have moved from relying on broadly active traditional medications, such as prednisolone or methotrexate, toward more specific agents that often target a single receptor, cytokine, or cell type, using monoclonal antibodies, fusion proteins, or targeted small molecules. This change has transformed the treatment of many conditions, including rheumatoid arthritis, cancers, asthma, and inflammatory bowel disease, but along with the benefits have come risks. Contrary to the hope that these more specific agents would have minimal and predictable infectious sequelae, infectious complications have emerged as a major stumbling block for many of these agents. Furthermore, the growing number and complexity of available biologic agents makes it difficult for clinicians to maintain current knowledge, and most review articles focus on a particular target disease or class of agent. In this article, we review the current state of knowledge about infectious complications of biologic and small molecule immunomodulatory agents, aiming to create a single resource relevant to a broad range of clinicians and researchers. For each of 19 classes of agent, we discuss the mechanism of action, the risk and types of infectious complications, and recommendations for prevention of infection.

Abstract
Introduction Biologic agents form an indispensable part of modern therapeutic regimens for the treatment of severe inflammatory diseases, especially in the fields of rheumatology, dermatology and gastroenterology. They are favoured by both physicians and patients due to their high effectiveness, good patient tolerance and safety. However, interference in the regulation and dynamics of inflammatory cytokines can on occasion lead to an onset of a dermatological condition also known as paradoxical skin reaction. Here, we present a case of paradoxical skin reaction induced by certolizumab. Case Report A young woman with ankylosing spondylitis developed a severe and complex cutaneous reaction after 6 months of otherwise successful treatment with certolizumab. The diagnosis of a rare paradoxical cutaneous reaction post anti-tumour necrosis factor alpha treatment was based on overlapping features of pyoderma gangrenosum and palmoplantar pustular psoriasis. Alopecia developed and there was also nail involvement. Treatment proved to be challenging as the disease did not remit after the patient ceased treatment with certolizumab. The patient was started on a combination of secukinumab and methotrexate to control the symptoms, with a promising outcome. Conclusion Paradoxical skin reactions are an emerging clinical entity that require further research in order to establish risk factors and best personalized treatment.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Epidemiological studies have established an association between psoriasis and inflammatory bowel disease [IBD], i.e. ulcerative colitis [UC] and Crohn's disease [CD], but results are inconsistent. The aim of this study was therefore to quantify the prevalences and association between IBD and psoriasis. METHODS PubMed, Web of Science, and EMBASE were searched from database inception through April 2018 for studies reporting data on psoriasis among patients with IBD and vice versa. Meta-analysis was performed to estimate, respectively, the prevalences and association between IBD and psoriasis. Data extraction was according to the PRISMA guideline, and quality assessment was made using the Newcastle-Ottawa Scale. The main outcomes were the proportion of psoriasis patients with IBD and vice versa, as well as the association (odds ratio [OR]) of IBD in psoriasis and psoriasis in IBD, respectively. RESULTS Based on quantitative analysis of 93 studies, the prevalence of psoriasis in CD and in UC was 3.6% (95% confidence interval [CI] 3.1%-4.6%) and 2.8% [95% CI 2.0%-3.8%] respectively. The prevalence of CD and UC was 0.7% [95% CI 0.2%-1.3%] and 0.5% [95% CI 0.3%-0.8%], respectively, among patients with psoriasis. Presence of CD or UC was significantly associated with psoriasis, with OR 2.0 [95% CI 1.4-2.9] and OR 1.5 [95% CI 1.2-2.0], respectively. Presence of psoriasis was significantly associated with CD: OR 2.2 [95% CI 1.6-3.1] and with UC: OR 1.6 [95% CI 1.3-2.0]. CONCLUSIONS We found significant bidirectional associations between psoriasis and IBD, warranting increased awareness among clinicians in the diagnostic process, especially in children and adolescents with IBD. Last, this study showed an increased frequency of paradoxical psoriasis in patients treated with biologics.

Abstract
Medications to treat children with rheumatic disease include disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs, glucocorticosteroids, and biologic response modifiers that target mediators and cells involved in autoimmunity and inflammation. Although usually well-tolerated, such medications have many possible side effects, of which primary care and emergency providers should be aware. Both disease and immunosuppression contribute to susceptibility to unusual and opportunistic infections, in addition to usual childhood infections for which these children should receive all applicable nonlive vaccines. Close coordination between the rheumatologist and other medical care providers is essential, because medication side effects, infections, and disease flares are difficult to distinguish, and may occur together.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Both muscle-related complaints and elevated serum creatine kinase (CK) levels have been reported in patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) treated with infliximab (IFX), mainly as case reports. The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of IFX therapy on serum CK levels in a cohort of Greek IBD patients. METHODS Demographic, clinical (including muscle complaints), and laboratory data of consecutive IBD patients undergoing IFX treatment and a matched control group of IBD patients without any use of biological treatment were retrospectively analyzed. In both groups, patients having at least 3 CK measurements, with at least 10 days' interval among them, were included. RESULTS The IFX-treated IBD patient group included 82 individuals (75.6% Crohn's Disease [CD]; mean age, 44.7 ± 13.3 years; 60.9% men; median [interquartile range {IQR}] duration of IFX treatment, 27 [12-84] months). Eighty-two patients without treatment with any biological agent formed the control group (62.2% CD; mean age, 50.4 ± 16.4 years; 59.8% men). Twenty-five IFX-treated patients (30.5%) had elevated mean serum CK levels (>180 U/L), compared with 9 (11%) in the control group (P = 0.0003). The median CK value in the IFX group (123.5 U/L; IQR, 91-190.75) was significantly higher than that of the control group (81 U/L; IQR, 57-112.75; P < 0.0001). In the logistic regression analysis, the presence of hyperCKemia was independently correlated with the use of IFX (odds ratio, 4.03; IQR, 1.64-9.90; P = 0.002). No patient with hyperCKemia in both groups reported any persistent symptom of myopathy. CONCLUSIONS More than 30% of IBD patients on IFX present asymptomatic persistent and treatment-related hyperCKemia. Further relevant prospective investigation is needed. 10.1093/ibd/izy088_video1izy088.video15778459427001.
