Abstract
The objective of the study is to determine the importance of the mode of onset as prognostic factor in systemic sclerosis (SSc). Data were collected from the Spanish Scleroderma Registry (RESCLE), a nationwide retrospective multicenter database created in 2006. As first symptom, we included Raynaud's phenomenon (RP), cutaneous sclerosis, arthralgia/arthritis, puffy hands, interstitial lung disease (ILD), pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH), and digestive hypomotility. A total of 1625 patients were recruited. One thousand three hundred forty-two patients (83%) presented with RP as first symptom and 283 patients (17%) did not. Survival from first symptom in those patients with RP mode of onset was higher at any time than those with onset as non-Raynaud's phenomenon: 97 vs. 90% at 5 years, 93 vs. 82% at 10 years, 83 vs. 62% at 20 years, and 71 vs. 50% at 30 years (p < 0.001). In multivariate analysis, factors related to mortality were older age at onset, male gender, dcSSc subset, ILD, PAH, scleroderma renal crisis (SRC), heart involvement, and the mode of onset with non-Raynaud's phenomenon, especially in the form of puffy hands or pulmonary involvement. The mode of onset should be considered an independent prognostic factor in systemic sclerosis and, in particular, patients who initially present with non-Raynaud's phenomenon may be considered of poor prognosis.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Interstitial lung disease (ILD) is one of the major causes of death in systemic sclerosis (SSc). This study investigated exhaled breath (EB) and exhaled breath condensate (EBC) biomarkers in patients with SSc and analyzed their role as a prognostic tool in SSc-related ILD. METHODS Fraction exhaled nitric oxide (FeNO) and exhaled carbon monoxide (eCO) measured in EB, together with pH, nitrite, nitrate and interleukin-6 levels measured in EBC were prospectively analyzed in 35 patients with SSc. Twelve patients had established ILD by chest high-resolution computed tomography (HRCT), and 23 patients showed no evidence of ILD. EB and EBC biomarkers were determined at inclusion, and pulmonary function tests were annually performed during 4 years of follow-up. RESULTS No differences at baseline biomarkers levels were found between groups. In all patients studied, low EBC pH levels were associated with a decreased diffusing capacity for carbon monoxide (DLCO) during follow-up. Low FeNO levels were correlated with lower forced vital capacity (FVC) at baseline, 4years of follow-up and with a decrease in FVC and DLCO during monitoring. Among ILD patients, high eCO levels were correlated with lower baseline FVC. In the global cohort, a worse progression-free survival was identified in patients with EBC pH values lower than 7.88 and FeNO levels lower than 10.75ppb (Log Rank P=.03 and P<.01, respectively). CONCLUSIONS EB and EBC could help to detect patients likely to present a deterioration on lung function during follow up.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The objective of this article was to establish the clinical course of interstitial lung disease (ILD) in scleroderma related to the presence of anti-PM/Scl antibody compared with anti-Scl-70 in a Spanish cohort. Furthermore, no study has thoroughly investigated the outcome of pulmonary function test in the first group of patients. METHODS A total of 63 Spanish patients with scleroderma and ILD were selected in a retrospective observational study. Among them, 14 were positive for anti-PM/Scl antibodies and 49 for anti-Scl-70. Clinical assessments, including pulmonary function test, were collected. Variations equal or greater than 10% in forced vital capacity (FVC) were considered significant. Progression-free survival of disease was defined as the period of stable illness since pulmonary fibrosis diagnosis. RESULTS Anti-Scl-70 patients had a higher frequency of diffuse SSc subset, peripheral vasculopathy, and gastrointestinal involvement. Inflammatory myopathy was associated to anti-PM/Scl antibody. Anti-PM/Scl patients presented more improvement in FVC during follow-up, 30.8% compared to a 7.1% in Scl-70 group (P = 0.04), with less worsening of this parameter (15.4% vs 52.4% in Scl-70 patients, P = 0.01), and secondary less frequency of severe restrictive pattern (FVC < 50%) (7.7% compared to 42.9% in the other group, P = 0.02). Regarding treatment, more anticalcineurinics were used in anti-PM/Scl patients, while cyclophosphamide and mycophenolate were mainly used in anti-Scl-70 patients. The progression-free survival of disease was higher in anti-PM/Scl patients, with 76% at 10 years from diagnosis of ILD against a 29% in the Scl-70 group. CONCLUSIONS Several features and prognosis of ILD in SSc may be modified depending on the identified immunological profile.
