New-onset of rheumatic diseases following COVID-19 vaccination: the report of three cases and a literature review. Immunol Med 2024; 47:205-216. [PMID: 38627989 DOI: 10.1080/25785826.2024.2339542] [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: 01/19/2024] [Accepted: 03/26/2024] [Indexed: 08/23/2024] Open
Abstract
Vaccines against coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) have been distributed in most countries for the prevention of onset and aggravation of COVID-19. Recently, there have been increasing numbers of reports on new-onset autoimmune and autoinflammatory diseases following COVID-19 vaccination, however, only little information is available on the long-term safety of these vaccines. Here, we experienced three cases of new-onset rheumatic diseases following COVID-19 vaccination, one case each of rheumatoid arthritis (RA), anti-neutrophil cytoplasmic antibody (ANCA)-associated vasculitis (AAV) and systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). The symptom onset ranged from one day to a few days following vaccination. The patients of AAV and SLE were treated successfully with glucocorticoid therapy, and the patient of RA died due to COVID-19. In the literature review of new-onset rheumatic diseases following COVID-19 vaccination, which including seven cases of RA, 37 cases of AAV and 18 cases of SLE, the mean time from vaccination to onset was approximately 11 to 12 days. Most cases improved with glucocorticoid, immunosuppressive drugs and biologic agents. Although such adverse effects are rare, and vaccines are useful in prevent onset and severity of infections, continued accumulation of similar cases is important in terms of examining the long-term safety and understanding pathogenic mechanism of rheumatic diseases.

Abstract
Adult-onset Still's disease (AOSD) is an uncommon autoinflammatory disorder without a clear etiology that primarily affects young adults. New-onset disease at > 80 years of age is uncommon. We present the case of an 82-year-old woman with AOSD which developed after receiving a messenger ribonucleic acid (mRNA) coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) vaccine. COVID-19 vaccines are known to cause overproduction of cytokines, systemic inflammation, and some immune-mediated adverse events, such as rheumatoid arthritis, systemic lupus erythematosus, dermatomyositis, vasculitis, and polymyalgia rheumatica after the vaccination has been reported. A handful of cases of AOSD after the vaccination have also been reported and the median age was 40s. However, AOSD related to COVID-19 vaccination can develop even in older individuals.

Abstract
We present the case of a 42-year-old woman with rheumatoid arthritis and Sjögren's syndrome treated with adalimumab who developed immune-mediated necrotizing myopathy (IMNM) and trigeminal neuropathy after severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) mRNA vaccination. Trigeminal neuralgia and elevated serum creatine kinase levels emerged 12 days post-vaccination, followed by myalgia in the femoral muscles. IMNM was histologically diagnosed. The pathogenesis may involve molecular mimicry between the SARS-CoV-2 spike glycoprotein and autologous tissues triggered by vaccination. This case emphasizes the association between SARS-CoV-2 vaccination, tumor necrosis factor inhibitor, IMNM, and trigeminal neuropathy, as well as the importance of monitoring immune-mediated adverse events following SARS-CoV-2 vaccination in patients with autoimmune disease.

New-Onset Rheumatic Immune-Mediated Inflammatory Diseases Following SARS-CoV-2 Vaccinations until May 2023: A Systematic Review. Vaccines (Basel) 2023; 11:1571.

Abstract
A comprehensive, up-to-date systematic review (SR) of the new-onset rheumatic immune-mediated inflammatory diseases (R-IMIDs) following COVID-19 vaccinations is lacking. Therefore, we investigated the demographics, management, and prognosis of new R-IMIDs in adults following SARS-CoV-2 vaccinations. A systematic literature search of Medline, Embase, Google Scholar, LitCovid, and Cochrane was conducted. We included any English-language study that reported new-onset R-IMID in adults following the post-COVID-19 vaccination. A total of 271 cases were reported from 39 countries between January 2021 and May 2023. The mean age of patients was 56 (range 18-90), and most were females (170, 62.5%). Most (153, 56.5%) received the Pfizer BioNTech COVID-19 vaccine. Nearly 50% of patients developed R-IMID after the second dose of the vaccine. Vasculitis was the most prevalent clinical presentation (86, 31.7%), followed by connective tissue disease (66, 24.3%). The mean duration between the vaccine's 'trigger' dose and R-IMID was 11 days. Most (220, 81.2%) received corticosteroids; however, 42% (115) received DMARDs such as methotrexate, cyclophosphamide, tocilizumab, anakinra, IV immunoglobulins, plasma exchange, or rituximab. Complete remission was achieved in 75 patients (27.7%), and 137 (50.6%) improved following the treatment. Two patients died due to myositis. This SR highlights that SARS-CoV-2 vaccines may trigger R-IMID; however, further epidemiology studies are required.

Abstract
Hepatitis A virus (HAV) represents a global burdening infectious agent causing in the majority of cases a self-limiting acute icteric syndrome, the outcome is related to the hepatic substrate and the potential pre-existing damage, whereas a plethora of extra-hepatic manifestations has also been reported. Despite the absence of post- HAV chronicity it has been associated with an additional burden on existing chronic liver diseases. Moreover, the induced immune response and the antigenic molecular mimicry are considered as triggering factors of autoimmunity with regional and distal impact. Diseases such as autoimmune hepatitis, Guillain-Barré syndrome, rheumatoid arthritis, Still's syndrome, Henoch-Schönlein purpura, autoimmune hemolytic anemia, antiphospholipid syndrome, systematic lupus erythematosus or cryoglobulinemic vasculitis have been described in patients with HAV infection. Although the exact mechanisms remain unclear, this review aims to accumulate and clarify the pathways related to this linkage.

Abstract
Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), has resulted in more than 670 million infections and almost 7 million deaths globally. The emergence of numerous SARS-CoV-2 has heightened public concern regarding the future course of the epidemic. Currently, the SARS-CoV-2 Omicron variant has rapidly become globally dominant in the COVID-19 pandemic due to its high infectivity and immune evasion. Consequently, vaccination implementation is critically significant. However, growing evidence suggests that COVID-19 vaccination may cause new-onset autoimmune diseases, including autoimmune glomerulonephritis, autoimmune rheumatic diseases, and autoimmune hepatitis. Nevertheless, the causal relationship between COVID-19 vaccines and these autoimmune diseases remains to be demonstrated. In this review, we provide evidence that vaccination induces autoimmunity and summarize possible mechanisms of action, such as molecular mimicry, activation by bystanders, and adjuvants. Our objective is not to refute the importance of vaccines, but to raise awareness about the potential risks of COVID-19 vaccination. In fact, we believe that the benefits of vaccination far outweigh the possible risks and encourage people to get vaccinated.

Abstract
Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) vaccine has effectively suppressed the spread of the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) and alleviated its symptoms, but there are also many adverse events. Joint diseases caused by COVID-19 vaccine have been reported in many studies. Some are well-controlled arthritis patients who developed arthritis after COVID-19 vaccination, while others are new-onset joint pain and swelling problems after COVID-19 vaccination. The purpose of this systematic review is to examine the literature reports in existing databases and analyze the incidence of new-onset arthritis after COVID-19 vaccination. We included 31 eligible articles and described 45 patients, ranging in age from 17 to over 90, with more females than males. The majority (84.4%) of patients received the adenovirus vector vaccine (ChAdOx1) and the mRNA-based vaccine (BNT126b2 and mRNA-1273). Most (64.4%) patients developed joint-related symptoms after the first dose of vaccine, and 66.7% developed symptoms within the first week of vaccination. The joint symptoms involved were mainly joint swelling, joint pain, limited range of motion, and so on. A total of 71.1% of the patients involved multiple joints, both large and small; 28.9% of patients involved only a single joint. Some (33.3%) patients were confirmed by imaging, and the most common diagnoses were bursitis and synovitis. Two nonspecific inflammatory markers, erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR) and C-reactive protein (CRP), were monitored in almost all cases, and all patients showed varying degrees of increase in these two markers. Most of the patients received the treatment of glucocorticoid drugs or nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs). Clinical symptoms markedly improved in most patients, with 26.7% making a full recovery and no relapse after a few months of follow-up. To determine whether there is a causal relationship between COVID-19 vaccination and the triggering of arthritis, large-scale and well-controlled research studies are needed in the future to verify this relationship and to further study its pathogenesis in detail. Clinicians should raise awareness of this complication with a view to early diagnosis and appropriate treatment.

Abstract
Sowohl nach COVID-Infektion als auch nach ein oder mehreren COVID-Impfungen können rheumatische Beschwerden beginnen. In beiden Fällen scheint der Mechanismus ähnlich zu sein und mit dem Coronavirus oder seinen spezifischen Folgen zusammenzuhängen. Zumeist wird von einer reaktiven Arthritis gesprochen, wenngleich die Bezeichnung COVID-19-assoziierte Arthritis für das Beschwerdebild eher zutreffen dürfte. In Relation zur Zahl der COVID-Infizierten und der COVID-geimpften ist die Zahl der Fälle, in denen es zu COVID-assoziierten Beschwerden kommt, außerordentlich gering und die Prognose scheint eher gut zu sein.
