Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Antimelanoma differentiation antigen 5-dermatomyositis (MDA5-DM) is a complex and serious systemic autoimmune disease that primarily affects the skin and lungs. In this review, we aimed to provide new insights into the clinical features, pathogenesis, and practical management approach for this disease. RECENT FINDINGS Although lung lesions are prominent in most patients with MDA5-DM, they are now recognized as heterogeneous diseases. Peripheral blood lymphocyte count can serve as a simple and reliable laboratory parameter for categorizing MDA5-DM into three subgroups: mild, medium, and severe. Recent studies have implicated viral infection, genetic factors, autoimmunity against MDA5, multiple immune cells, and interferons as significant contributors to MDA5-DM pathogenesis. In addition to traditional treatments with glucocorticoids and immunosuppressants, many new approaches, including new biologics and targeted agents, have been explored. Additionally, infection is a common complication of MDA5-DM, and prophylaxis or treatment of the infection is as important as treating the primary disease. SUMMARY Knowledge of clinical characteristics and pathogenesis of MDA5-DM has grown in recent years. Although many new therapeutic approaches have been explored, further studies are required to confirm their efficacy.

An externally validated clinical-laboratory nomogram for myocardial involvement in adult idiopathic-inflammatory-myopathy patients. Clin Rheumatol 2024; 43:1959-1969. [PMID: 38587715 PMCID: PMC11111495 DOI: 10.1007/s10067-024-06948-x] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/12/2023] [Revised: 01/09/2024] [Accepted: 03/22/2024] [Indexed: 04/09/2024]
Abstract
OBJECTIVES This study aimed at identifying clinical and laboratory risk factors for myocardial involvement (MI) in idiopathic inflammatory myopathies (IIMs) patients as well as constructing a risk-predicted nomogram for prediction and early identification of MI. METHODS An IIMs cohort in southeastern China was constructed, including 504 adult IIMs patients who met the inclusion and exclusion criteria, and were hospitalized at four divisions of the First Affiliated Hospital, Zhejiang University School of Medicine from January 1st 2018 to April 30st 2022. After dividing patients into the training cohort and the validation cohort, risk factors for MI were identified through least absolute shrinkage and selection operator regression and multivariate logistic regression. A risk-predicted nomogram was established and validated internally and externally for discrimination, calibration and practicability. RESULTS In this cohort, 17.7% of patients developed MI and the survival was significantly inferior to that of IIMs patients without MI (P < 0.001). In the training cohort, age > 55 years old (P < 0.001), disease activity > 10 points (P < 0.001), interleukin-17A (IL-17A) > 7.5 pg/ml (P < 0.001), lactic dehydrogenase (LDH) > 425 U/L (P < 0.001), anti-mitochondrial antibodies (AMAs, P = 0.017), and anti-MDA5 antibody (P = 0.037) were significantly correlated with development of MI. A nomogram was established by including the above values to predict MI and was found efficient in discrimination, calibration, and practicability through internal and external validation. CONCLUSION This study developed and validated a nomogram model to predict the risk of MI in adult IIMs patients, which can benefit the prediction and early identification of MI as well as timely intervention in these patients.

Yan L, Shi Y, Wu C, Li Y. Multivariate logistic regression analysis of poor prognosis of dermatomyositis and clinical value of ferritin/Kl-6 in predicting prognosis. Skin Res Technol 2024; 30:e13701. [PMID: 38682785 PMCID: PMC11057051 DOI: 10.1111/srt.13701] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/22/2024] [Accepted: 04/01/2024] [Indexed: 05/01/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Dermatomyositis (DM) is a rare inflammatory disease. Our research focuses on predicting poor prognosis in DM patients and evaluating the prognostic significance of ferritin and Salivary Sugar Chain Antigen-6 (KL-6) through multivariate logistic regression analysis. METHODS Between February 2018 and April 2020, 80 DM patients at our hospital were categorized into MDA5 positive (n = 20) and negative (n = 60) groups. We conducted multivariate logistic regression to determine DM's poor prognosis risk factors and evaluate ferritin/KL-6's predictive value for prognosis. RESULTS Analysis showed no gender, age, body mass index (BMI), or lifestyle (smoking, drinking) differences, nor in dyspnea, muscle weakness, skin ulcers, and acetylcysteine treatment effects (p > 0.05). Significant differences emerged in arrhythmias, interstitial pneumonia, C-reactive protein, albumin, and lactate dehydrogenase levels (p < 0.05). Before treatment, differences were negligible (p > 0.05), but post-treatment, serum KL-6 and ferritin levels dropped. MDA5 positive patients had elevated serum KL-6 and ferritin levels than survivors (p < 0.05), with a strong correlation to DM. Combined diagnosis using serum KL-6 and ferritin for DM prognosis showed area under curves of 0.716 and 0.634, significantly outperforming single-index diagnoses with an area under curve (AUC) of 0.926 (p < 0.05). CONCLUSION Serum KL-6 and ferritin show marked abnormalities in DM, useful as indicators for evaluating polymyositis and DM conditions. However, the study's small sample size is a drawback. Expanding the sample size is essential to monitor serum KL-6 and ferritin changes in DM patients under treatment more closely, aiming to improve clinical assessment and facilitate detailed research.

Prognostic factors of fungal infection in anti-melanoma differentiation-associated gene 5 antibody-positive associated interstitial lung disease. Clin Rheumatol 2024; 43:1381-1392. [PMID: 38345696 DOI: 10.1007/s10067-024-06899-3] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/29/2023] [Revised: 12/31/2023] [Accepted: 02/01/2024] [Indexed: 03/19/2024]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE To investigate the potential risk factors for mortality in fungal infection in anti-melanoma differentiation-associated gene 5 antibody-positive associated interstitial lung disease (MDA5-ILD). METHODS Patients diagnosed with MDA5-ILD from April 2017 to November 2022 were included. The demographic data, laboratory examinations, therapeutic and follow-up information were recorded. Fungal infection diagnosis was established based on a combinations of host factors, clinical features and mycologic evidences. High-dose corticosteroid therapy was defined as the initial corticosteroid doses > 240mg/d. The primary endpoint was mortality. Potential factors for fungal infection occurrence and prognostic factors were analyzed using logistic regression analysis and Cox proportional hazards regression. RESULTS In total, 121 patients with MDA5-ILD were included. During follow-up, 41 (33.9%) patients had suffered fungal infection and 39.0% (16/41) of whom had ever received high-dose corticosteroid therapy. The median interval from corticosteroid use to the occurrence of fungal infection was 29 (10-48) days. The mean survival time of patients with fungal infection was 234.32 ± 464.76 days. The mortality in MDA5-ILD with fungal infection was 85.4% (35/41), which was significantly higher than those without (85.4% VS 56.3%, P < 0.001). High-dose corticosteroid therapy (P = 0.049) was independent risk factor for fungal infection occurrence. Decreased serum albumin level (P = 0.024) and high-dose corticosteroid therapy (P = 0.008) were both associated with increased mortality in MDA5-ILD patients with fungal infection. CONCLUSION Fungal infection is associated with an increased mortality in MDA5-ILD. The serum albumin level and corticosteroid dose should be taken into consideration when treating MDA5-ILD. Key Points • This study showed fungal infection is associated with an increased mortality in MDA5-ILD. In MDA5-ILD patients with fungal infection, the presence of decreased serum albumin level and high-dose corticosteroid therapy were identified as predictors for mortality.

Abstract
Anti-melanoma differentiation-associated protein 5 (MDA5) antibody-positive dermatomyositis (MDA5-DM) is a subtype of dermatomyositis. Although the aetiology and pathology remain unclear, increasing evidence suggests that viral infection is a potential trigger of MDA5-DM. Multiple factors, including T cells, B cells, neutrophils and macrophages, are implicated in the pathophysiology of MDA5-DM. Distinctive skin rashes, rapidly progressive interstitial lung disease, peripheral lymphopenia and elevated serum ferritin levels are the most prominent clinical and laboratory features of MDA5-DM. Concomitant infection is a common complication of MDA5-DM. The proper evaluation of patients with MDA5-DM requires knowledge of the disease heterogeneity and clinical course variability. Several biomarkers, including serum levels of anti-MDA5 antibodies and biomarkers related to macrophage activation, have been identified as useful tools for monitoring disease activity and prognosis. MDA5-DM shows a poor response to conventional glucocorticoid and immunosuppressant therapy and has a poor overall prognosis. Therefore, there is an urgent need to explore the key pathogenic mechanisms of MDA5-DM and develop novel therapeutic options for patients. This Review discusses recent clinical progress and pathogenic findings of MDA5-DM.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Invasive fungal infections (IFIs) are life-threatening opportunistic infections in patients with connective tissue disease CTD) that cause significant morbidity and mortality. We attempted to determine the potential risk factors associated with IFIs in CTD. METHODS We systematically searched PubMed, Embase, and the Cochrane Library databases for relevant articles published from the database inception to February 1, 2023. RESULTS Twenty-six studies were included in this systematic review and meta-analysis. Risk factors identified for IFIs were diabetes (odds ratio [OR], 1.62; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.00 to 2.64), pulmonary diseases (OR 3.43; 95% CI 2.49 to 4.73), interstitial lung disease (ILD; OR, 4.06; 95% CI, 2.22 to 7.41), renal disease (OR, 4.41; 95% CI, 1.84 to 10.59), glucocorticoid (GC) use (OR, 4.15; 95% CI, 2.74 to 6.28), especially moderate to high-dose GC, azathioprine (AZA) use (OR, 1.50; 95% CI, 1.12 to 2.01), calcineurin inhibitor (CNI) use (OR, 2.49; 95% CI, 1.59 to 3.91), mycophenolate mofetil (MMF) use (OR, 2.83; 95% CI, 1.59 to 5.03), cyclophosphamide (CYC) use (OR, 3.35; 95% CI, 2.47 to 4.54), biologics use (OR, 3.43; 95% CI, 2.36 to 4.98), and lymphopenia (OR, 4.26; 95% CI, 2.08 to 8.73). Hydroxychloroquine (HCQ) use reduced risk of IFIs (OR, 0.67; 95% CI, 0.54 to 0.84). Furthermore, 17 of the 26 studies only reported risk factors for Pneumocystis jiroveci pneumonia (PJP) in patients with CTD. Pulmonary disease; ILD; and the use of GC, CNIs, CYC, methotrexate (MTX), MMF and biologics, and lymphopenia increased the risk of PJP, whereas the use of HCQ reduced its risk. CONCLUSION Diabetes, pulmonary disease, ILD, renal disease, use of GC (especially at moderate to high dose) and immunosuppressive drugs, and lymphopenia were found to be associated with significant risk for IFIs (especially PJP) in patients with CTD. Furthermore, the use of HCQ may reduce the risk of IFIs in patients with CTD.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To identify potential risk factors and prognostic factors of Pneumocystis jirovecii pneumonia (PJP) infection in anti-melanoma differentiation-associated gene 5 antibody-positive DM (anti-MDA5+ DM) patients, and to evaluate the diagnostic performance of metagenomic next-generation sequencing (mNGS). METHODS Anti-MDA5+ DM patients who underwent mNGS or real-time PCR for PJP detection were recruited. The potential risk factors for PJP occurrence and death were analysed via Logistic regression and Cox proportional hazards regression, respectively. The diagnostic efficacy of mNGS was compared with the conventional methods. RESULTS 91 patients were enrolled and 44 were assigned to PJP+ group. The PJP detection rate was 48.4%. PJP often occurred in the first 3 months (68.2%) of the disease; this period also showed the highest mortality rate (20.5%). Fever and increased lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) were independent risk factors for PJP occurrence, while trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole (TMP/SMZ) prophylaxis was an independent protective factor (all P < 0.05). Older age and increased LDH were predictors for mortality in patients with anti-MDA5+ DM and PJP (all P < 0.05). In addition, we found that mNGS had a sensitivity of 100.0% and specificity of 90.0% in diagnosing PJP, with the highest area under the curve of 0.95 (P < 0.001). CONCLUSION PJP has high prevalence and mortality in anti-MDA5+ DM. It is crucial for clinicians to identify high-risk patients and promptly institute TMP/SMZ to prevent PJP. mNGS is the preferred approach for pathogen detection in anti-MDA5+ DM when PJP is suspected.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Mortality of dermatomyositis patients positive with anti-melanoma differentiation-related gene 5 antibody (anti-MDA5-DM) is alarming, especially during the first several months. Infection is an important cause of early death. As there are no reports regarding the effect of prophylactic use of compounded sulfamethoxazole (coSMZ; each tablet contains 400 mg of sulfamethoxazole and 80 mg of trimethoprim) in anti-MDA5-DM patients, we conducted this study to evaluate the efficacy of coSMZ in reducing the incidence of Pneumocystis jirovecii pneumonia (PJP). METHODS Consecutive patients with new-onset anti-MDA5-DM from June 2018 to October 2021 in our centre were retrospectively reviewed for >12 months. They were divided into two groups-coSMZ and non-coSMZ-based on the initial use of prophylactic coSMZ. Mortality and the incidence of severe infection within 12 months were compared between two groups. RESULTS Compared with the non-coSMZ group (n = 93), the coSMZ group (n = 121) had lower mortality (18.8% vs 51.1%; P < 0.001) and a lower incidence of PJP (6.8% vs 15.2%; P = 0.040) and fatal infection (16.1% vs 3.3%; P = 0.001) during the first 12 months from diagnosis. After adjusting for age, gender, disease duration, peripheral blood lymphocyte count, anti-MDA5 antibody titres, ground-glass opacity scores and treatments, an inverse association was revealed between the prophylactic use of coSMZ and incidence of PJP [adjusted odds ratio 0.299 (95% CI 0.102-0.878), P = 0.028]. CONCLUSION Prophylactic use of coSMZ is an effective and safe way to improve the prognosis of anti-MDA5-DM patients by preventing the incidence of PJP.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES This study aimed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of tofacitinib for the treatment of anti-melanoma differentiation-associated 5 gene (anti-MDA5) antibody-positive dermatomyositis (DM). METHODS This study included 52 patients with anti-MDA5 antibody-positive DM (MDA5 + DM) who were treated with tofacitinib and followed up. Clinical and laboratory data of these patients were recorded between January 2019 and June 2022. SPSS was used for all statistical analyses. RESULTS The mean age of patients with MDA5 + DM was 45 ± 12.4 years, and the median disease duration was 6.5 months (range, 3-13 months). The mean dosage of glucocorticoids was 34.7 ± 20.9 mg/d at the initiation of tofacitinib therapy. Overall, 47 patients were followed up for a mean duration of 7.8 ± 6.2 months. We found that the clinical symptoms of 28 patients (59.6%) were improved, but 1 patient (2.1%) died because of severe infection. Moreover, complications occurred in 25 patients (53.2%), among whom 19 patients had infections. Older age and C-reactive protein levels close to the upper value in reference range at the initial treatment were found to be the potential risk factors of infection. Furthermore, patients with cutaneous ulcers were found to have a lower risk of infection. CONCLUSION Tofacitinib can be used as a potential therapeutic option for MDA5 + DM. The occurrence of infection requires special attention during treatment, particularly in patients with older age and C-reactive protein levels close to the upper value in reference range.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Dermatomyositis (DM) positive with anti-melanoma differentiation-associated gene 5 (anti-MDA5-DM) is a systemic autoimmune disease with high mortality. This study aimed to explore the risk factors of death in anti-MDA5-DM and validate a prediction model for all-cause mortality in anti-MDA5-DM. METHOD We conducted a retrospective study using a single-centre cohort of patients with newly onset anti-MDA5-DM from June 1, 2018 to August 31, 2021. Patients were divided into four groups according to baseline ground-glass opacity (GGO) score: Group A, GGO ≤ 1; Group B, 1 < GGO ≤ 2; Group C, 2 < GGO ≤ 3; Group D, GGO > 3. The primary outcome was death during the follow-up. Secondary outcomes included death within 3, 6, 12 months, severe infection, and remission during the first 12 months. RESULTS A total of 200 patients were included in the study. Based on multivariable Cox regression, the prognostic factors at baseline were identified as CRP > 5 mg/L, serum ferritin (SF) > 600ng/ml, positive anti-Ro52 antibody, prophylactic use of compound sulfamethoxazole (SMZ Co), four-category GGO score: GGO ≤ 1, 1 < GGO ≤ 2, 2 < GGO ≤ 3, GGO > 3. The final mortality of four groups was 16.4, 22.2, 48.5, 92.0%, respectively. Compared with Group A, the Hazards Ratio (HR) of Group B was 1.408, (p = 0.408), HR of Group C was 3.433 (p = 0.005), HR of Group D was 4.376 (p = 0.001). CONCLUSIONS GGO score is a reliable predictor for risk stratification in anti-MDA5-DM and may provide guidance for individualized managements of patients.

Abstract
A 58-year-old man with anti-melanoma differentiation-associated gene 5-positive dermatomyositis (MDA5-DM) developed Epstein-Barr virus (EBV)-associated malignant lymphoma as other iatrogenic immunodeficiency-associated lymphoproliferative disorders (OIIA-LPD) during the combined immunosuppressive therapy of high-dose prednisolone, tacrolimus, and intravenous cyclophosphamide for MDA5-DM. Serum EBV DNA was detected, and EBV-encoded small RNA was positive in the tissue sample of LPD, indicating that EBV reactivation contributed to the pathogenesis of LPD in our case. The patient underwent chemotherapy, including rituximab, promptly after discontinuation of tacrolimus and cyclophosphamide, resulting in complete remission of the malignant lymphoma, and MDA5-DM has not recurred with 3.5 mg/d of prednisolone monotherapy. We reviewed 19 cases of OIIA-LPD in patients with idiopathic inflammatory myopathies and herein report the first case of MDA5-DM complicated with OIIA-LPD. Among the 19 patients, 7 showed regression of LPD only following withdrawal of immunosuppressants, 9 took chemotherapy for LPD, and 5 died. It should be noted that patients with MDA5-DM-associated rapidly progressive interstitial lung disease could develop OIIA-LPD because they receive aggressive immunosuppressive therapy.

Abstract
Patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) who are being treated with immunosuppressive medications are at risk for developing Pneumocystis jirovecii pneumonia (PCP). We attempted to characterize the clinical aspects of PCP in CKD patients in order to alert high-risk patients with bad prognosis. A retrospective study of CKD patients was conducted from June 2018 to June 2022. Based on PCP diagnostic criteria, these patients were divided into PCP and non-PCP groups. Using univariate and multivariate logistic regression analysis, risk indicators were evaluated, and nomogram and decision tree were developed. Of the CKD patients screened for Pneumocystis carinii nucleic acid, 1512 were included. Two-hundred forty four (16.14%) were diagnosed with PCP. Of the PCP, 88.5% was receiving glucocorticoid (GC) therapy, of which 66.3% received more than 0.5 mg/kg GC. Multivariate analysis showed that membranous nephropathy (OR 2.35, 95% CI 1.45-3.80), immunosuppressive therapy (OR 1.94, 95% CI 1.06-3.69), and ground glass opacity of CT scanning (OR 1.71, 95% CI 1.10-2.65) were associated with increased risk of Pneumocystis carinii infection. The AUC of nomogram based on logistics regression was 0.78 (0.75-0.81). The mortality in patients with PCP was 32.40%. Univariate analysis and decision tree showed that pulmonary insufficiency (PO2: OR 0.98, 95% CI 0.96-1.00), elevated APTT (OR 1.07, 95% CI 1.04-1.11), and reduced hemoglobin (OR 0.97, 95% CI 0.96-0.98) were associated with poor prognosis. PCP is not rare in CKD patients, particularly in those treated with immunosuppressive therapy. Considering the high mortality of the cases, further studies on the prevention and management of these patients are needed.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Anti-melanoma differentiation-associated gene 5 positive (anti-MDA5+) DM has a close relationship with rapidly progressive interstitial lung disease (RPILD) and is associated with high mortality. However, data regarding the time-dependent risk of RPILD and deaths during disease progression are limited. We conducted this study to investigate whether the risk of RPILD and death were time-dependent or not in anti-MDA5+ DM. METHODS We assessed a cohort of 272 patients with anti-MDA5+ DM. The clinical characteristics of patients with anti-MDA5+ were collected, and COX regression was used to analyse independent risk factors for RPILD and death. We also described changes in risk of RPILD and death over time and their potential clinical implications. RESULTS There were 272 anti-MDA5+ DM patients enrolled in this study. According to the multivariate cox regression analysis, short disease course, high CRP level, anti-Ro52 positive and anti-MDA5 titre (++∼+++) were independent risk factors of RPILD. High creatine kinase level, high CRP level and RPILD were independent risk factors for death, and >90% RPILD and 84% mortality occurred in the first 6 months after disease onset. Notably, the first 3 months is a particularly high-risk period, with 50% of RPILD and 46% of deaths occurring. Hazards regarding RPILD and mortality diminished over time during a median follow-up of 12 months. CONCLUSION These results suggest significant, time-dependent changes in RPILD and mortality risk in anti-MDA5+ DM patients, providing a cut-off time window to estimate disease progression and poor prognosis.

Clinical characteristics of and risk factors for Pneumocystis jirovecii pneumonia in anti-melanoma differentiation-associated gene 5 (Anti-MDA5) antibody-positive dermatomyositis patients: a single-center retrospective study. Clin Rheumatol 2023; 42:453-462. [PMID: 36301369 DOI: 10.1007/s10067-022-06403-9] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/01/2022] [Revised: 09/04/2022] [Accepted: 10/04/2022] [Indexed: 01/27/2023]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE Pneumocystis jirovecii pneumonia (PJP) is a serious opportunistic infection mainly diagnosed in patients with rheumatic conditions. However, PJP in anti-melanoma differentiation-associated gene 5-positive dermatomyositis (MDA5 + DM) patients remains poorly understood. We aimed to investigate the 6-month PJP risk in newly diagnosed MDA5 + DM patients. METHODS A retrospective observational study of 105 inpatients with newly diagnosed MDA5 + DM was conducted at Renji Hospital from January 2018 to November 2019. Demographic information, clinical characteristics, and treatment data were recorded. The primary outcome was PJP incidence within 6 months after a MDA5 + DM diagnosis. RESULTS The analysis included 105 patients, including 13 patients diagnosed with PJP during the observation period. The median time from the MDA5 + DM diagnosis to PJP was 89 ± 38 days. Compared with the PJP - patients, the PJP + patients had a significantly greater risk of mortality (69.2% vs. 13.0% P < 0.001). Regarding the baseline comorbidities, hypertension (P = 0.013) and cancer (P = 0.02) were more common in the PJP + group. Additionally, a larger proportion of the PJP + patients received prolonged high-dose steroid therapy (≥ 60 mg/day and ≥ 1 month) (P = 0.022) and double or triple immunosuppressant therapy (P = 0.013). The multivariate analysis showed that PJP was independently associated with lymphopenia (ALC < 500 cells/µl) (OR: 5.434, 95% CI: 2.074-55.155; P = 0.012) and the combined use of cyclophosphamide (CTX) and tacrolimus (TAC) (OR: 10.695, 95% CI: 1.440-20.508; P = 0.005). CONCLUSION There was a high incidence and mortality in the MDA5 + DM patients with PJP, with patients on combined immunosuppressive treatments, particularly CTX and TAC, being at a higher risk. Prolonged high-dose steroid therapy (≥ 60 mg/day and ≥ 1 month) was another risk factor for PJP. Key Points • There was a high incidence and mortality in the MDA5 + DM patients with PJP. • Most PJP cases occurred within 3 months after the MDA5 + DM diagnosis. • The 6-month infection risk of PJP increased with the administration of multiagent immunosuppression, especially the combination of CTX and TAC. • Prolonged high-dose steroid therapy (≥ 60 mg/day and ≥ 1 month) was another risk factor for PJP.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Rapidly progressive interstitial lung disease (RP-ILD) is a frequent and severe manifestation of anti-MDA5 dermatomyositis (MDA5-DM) associated with poor outcome. The optimal treatment regimen for MDA5-DM RP-ILD is yet to be determined. Specifically, the value of adding plasma exchange (PLEX) to corticosteroids and immunosuppressants remains unclear. We aimed to evaluate the effect of PLEX on the outcome of patients with MDA5-DM RP-ILD. METHODS This French nationwide multicentre retrospective study included all MDA5-DM RP-ILD patients from 2012 to 2021 admitted to 18 centres. The primary endpoint was one-year transplant-free survival. RESULTS 51 patients with MDA5-DM RP-ILD (female 67%; mean age at disease onset: 51 ± 11.6 years) were included. Thirty-two (63%) patients required mechanical ventilation and twenty-five (49%) received PLEX. One-year mortality or lung transplant occurred in 63% cases after a median follow-up of 77 [38-264] days. The Cox proportional hazards multivariable model only retained mechanical ventilation but not PLEX (p = 0.7) as independent predictor of the primary endpoint. One-year transplant-free survival rates in PLEX + vs. PLEX-were 20% vs. 54% (p = 0.01), respectively. The Kaplan-Meier estimated probabilities of one-year transplant-free survival was statistically higher in PLEX-compared to PLEX + patients (p = 0.05). PLEX + compared to PLEX-patients more frequently received mechanical ventilation and immunosuppressants suggesting PLEX + patients had a more severe disease. CONCLUSION MDA5-DM RP-ILD is associated with poor rate of one-year transplant-free survival. The use of PLEX was not associated with a better outcome albeit they were mainly given to more severe patients. While our study reports the largest series of MDA5-DM RP-ILD given PLEX, these results needs to be interpreted with caution owing the numerous selection, indication and interpretation bias. Further studies are needed to evaluate their efficacy in this setting.

Front Immunol 2022; 13:987841. [PMID: 36110863 PMCID: PMC9468482 DOI: 10.3389/fimmu.2022.987841] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/08/2022] [Accepted: 08/15/2022] [Indexed: 11/22/2022] Open
Abstract
Objective To explore the clinical features and prognoses of dermatomyositis (DM) associated with a double-positive anti-MDA5 and anti-aminoacyl-tRNA synthetase (anti-ARS) antibody presentation. Methods We retrospectively analyzed 1280 consecutive patients with idiopathic inflammatory myopathy (IIM). Individuals with anti-MDA5 and anti-ARS antibodies (anti-MDA5+/ARS+) were compared to anti-MDA5-/ARS+ and anti-MDA5+/ARS- control individuals based on clinical, pulmonary radiological characteristics, treatment, and follow-up information. Results Six individuals (0.47%) presented with anti-MDA5+/ARS+; of these, 2 (33.3%) were anti-PL-12+, 2 (33.3%) were anti-Jo-1+, 1 (16.7%) was anti-EJ+, and 1 (16.7%) was anti-PL-7+. Hallmark cutaneous manifestations, including Gottron’s sign (100%), heliotrope rash (50%), mechanic’s hand (66.7%), and skin ulcers (16.7%) were common. Anti-MDA5+/ARS+ patients tended to have higher ferritin levels (p = 0.038) than anti-MDA5-/ARS+ group, and higher CD4+ T-cell counts (p = 0.032) compared to the anti-MDA5+/ARS- group. Radiologically, NSIP with OP overlap was predominant (60%). Consolidation (60%), ground-glass attenuation (GGA) (80%), traction bronchiectasis (80%), and intralobular reticulation (100%) were common in anti-MDA5+/ARS+ individuals. All were diagnosed with ILD and 50% were categorized as RPILD. All patients received glucocorticoids combined with one or more immunosuppressants. Most (83.3%) had a good prognosis following treatment, but there was no difference in the survival rate between the three subgroups. Conclusion Presentation with anti-MDA5+/ARS+ DM was rare. The clinical and radiological characteristics of anti-MDA5+/ARS+ DM combined the features of anti-MDA5+ and anti-ARS+ individuals. Individuals with anti-MDA5+/ARS+ antibodies may respond well to glucocorticoid therapy; glucocorticoids combined with one or more immunosuppressants may be considered a basic treatment approach.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Ageing, the accrual of molecular and cellular damage over a lifetime confers progressive physiologic dysfunction of bodily systems, leaving the body in a heightened state of vulnerability to biophysical and psychosocial stressors. The inflection point is frailty which easily leads to disability and death. Interstitial lung disease (ILD) creates biophysical and psychosocial stresses difficult for even optimally fit patients to cope with. With evolving ILD treatment pathways, people with ILD are living longer. RECENT FINDINGS ILD and ageing are bi-directionally influential: ILD, its treatments, complications, and collateral systemic extra-pulmonary damage (hypoxic and oxidative stress) wear on the ageing person and ageing impacts a person's tolerance of ILD. ILD extent may proportionally accelerate age-related vulnerabilities. ILD related to inflammatory systemic diseases, e.g. connective tissue diseases or sarcoidosis, exert an even more complex biophysical impact on the body. SUMMARY The present review stresses goals of preventing frailty in ILD and preserving general health and well being of people living with ILD of any age, from time of diagnosis and as they age. The development of a prediction score is proposed to classify those at risk of frailty and guide interventions that preserve successful ageing for all levels of ILD severity.

[PMID: 35603336 PMCID: PMC9082693 DOI: 10.12998/wjcc.v10.i10.3313] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/30/2021] [Revised: 01/26/2022] [Accepted: 02/20/2022] [Indexed: 02/06/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Pneumocystis jiroveci pneumonia (PJP) is a serious opportunistic infection that occurs mostly in patients with immunodeficiency and long-term immunosuppressive therapy. In non-human immunodeficiency virus-infected patients, the most important risk factor for PJP is the use of glucocorticoids in combination with other immunosuppressive treatments. The management of glucocorticoids during the perioperative period in patients with dermatomyositis requires special care.
CASE SUMMARY We report a case of PJP in the perioperative period. A 61-year-old woman with a history of anti-melanoma differentiation-associated gene 5 (MDA5)-positive dermatomyositis and interstitial pneumonia was administered with long-term oral methylprednisolone and cyclosporine. The patient underwent right total hip arthroplasty in the orthopaedic department for bilateral osteonecrosis of the femoral head. She was given intravenous drip hydrocortisone before anesthesia and on the first day after surgery and resumed oral methylprednisolone on the second postoperative day. On the fifth day after surgery, the patient suddenly developed dyspnea. The computed tomography scan showed diffuse grid shadows and ground glass shadows in both lungs. Polymerase chain reaction testing of bronchoalveolar lavage fluid was positive for Pneumocystis jiroveci. The patient was eventually diagnosed with PJP and was administered with oral trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole. At the 6-mo review, there was no recurrence or progression.
CONCLUSION Continued perioperative glucocorticoid use in patients with anti-MDA5-positive dermatomyositis may increase the risk of PJP.

Rheumatology (Oxford) 2021; 61:3766-3776. [PMID: 34962999 DOI: 10.1093/rheumatology/keab941] [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: 09/21/2021] [Revised: 12/06/2021] [Indexed: 11/13/2022] Open
Abstract
OBJECTIVES To explore clinical features of autoimmune inflammatory rheumatic disease (AIRD) patients with Pneumocystis jirovecii pneumonia (PJP) and identify potential risk factors and prognostic factors. METHODS AIRD patients who had respiratory symptoms and underwent Pneumocystis jirovecii detection were identified from the database in our department from November 2018 to October 2020. These patients were categorized into PJP and non-PJP groups according to the diagnostic criteria of PJP. Univariate and multivariate analysis were conducted. RESULTS 173 patients were enrolled and 46 of them had laboratory confirmed PJP. Glucocorticoid (GC) increased the risk of PJP in a dose-dependent manner. In addition, shorter duration of immunosuppressive therapy (IST), combination therapy with CsA, and chronic pulmonary comorbidities were also strongly associated with a higher risk of PJP. Combination of IgM and IgA could well identify AIRD patients with PJP from other AIRD patients with respiratory symptoms, with the optimal cutoff value of -0.96 g/L. 7 of 46 AIRD patients with PJP died (15.2%). Higher level of serum LDH, dyspnea, ARDS, and the presence of extensive ground glass opacity (GGO) in radiologic examinations were more common in deceased patients. CONCLUSIONS AIRD patients with high-dose GC treatment, recent initiation of IST, combination therapy with CsA, and history of chronic pulmonary diseases were associated with greater risks of PJP infection. PJP patients with a higher level of serum LDH, dyspnea, moderate and severe ARDS, and the presence of extensive GGO in radiologic examinations had poorer prognosis.
