Abstract
BackgroundCurrently there is little information on the efficacy and safety of SARS-CoV-2 vaccination in patients with immune-mediated diseases and/or under immunosuppressive treatment in our country, where different types of vaccines and mix regimens are used. For this reason, the Argentine Society of Rheumatology (SAR) with the Argentine Society of Psoriasis (SOARPSO) set out to develop a national register of patients with rheumatic and immune-mediated inflammatory diseases (IMIDs) who have received a SARS-CoV-2 vaccine in order to assess their efficacy and safety in this population.ObjectivesTo assess SARS-CoV-2 vaccine efficacy and safety in patients with rheumatic and IMIDs.MethodsSAR-CoVAC is a national, multicenter and observational registry. Adult patients with a diagnosis of rheumatic or IMIDs who have been vaccinated for SARS-CoV-2 were consecutively included between June 1st and September 17th, 2021. Sociodemographic data, comorbidities, underlying rheumatic or IMIDs, treatments received and their modification prior to vaccination and history of SARS-CoV-2 infection were recorded. In addition, the date and place of vaccination, type of vaccine applied, scheme and indication will be registered. Finally, adverse events (AE), as well as SARS-CoV-2 infection after the application of the vaccine were documentedResultsA total of 1234 patients were included, 79% were female, with a mean age of 57.8 (SD 14.1) years. The most frequent diseases were rheumatoid arthritis (41.2%), osteoarthritis (14.5%), psoriasis (12.7%) and spondyloarthritis (12.3%). Most of them were in remission (28.5%) and low disease activity (41.4%). At the time of vaccination, 21% were receiving glucocorticoid treatment, 35.7% methotrexate, 29.7% biological (b) Disease Modifying Anti-Rheumatic Drugs (DMARDs) and 5.4% JAK inhibitors. Before vaccine application 16.9% had had a SARS-CoV-2 infection.Regarding the first dose of the vaccine, the most of the patients (51.1%) received Gam-COVID-Vac, followed by ChAdOx1 nCoV-19 (32.8%) and BBIBP-CorV (14.5%). In a lesser proportion, BNT162b2 (0.6%), Ad26.COV2.S (0.2%) and CoronaVac (0.2%) vaccines were used. Almost half of them (48.8%) completed the scheme, 12.5% were mix regimenes, the most frequent being Gam-COVID-Vac / mRNA-1273. The median time between doses was 51days (IQR 53).More than a quarter (25.9%) of the patients reported at least one AE after the first dose and 15.9% after the second. The flu-like syndrome and local hypersensitivity were the most frequent manifestations. There was one case of mild anaphylaxis. No patient was hospitalized. Altogether, the incidence of AE was 246.5 events/1000 doses. BBIBP-CorV presented significantly lower incidence of AE in comparison with the other types of vaccines. (118.5 events/1000 doses, p<0.002 in all cases)Regarding efficacy, 63 events of SARS-CoV-2 infection were reported after vaccination, 19% occurred before 14 days post-vaccination, 57.1% after the first dose (>14 days) and 23.8% after the second. In most cases (85.9%) the infection was asymptomatic or had an outpatient course and 2 died due to COVID-19.ConclusionIn this national cohort of patients with rheumatic and IMIDs vaccinated for SARS-CoV-2, the most widely used vaccines were Gam-COVID-Vac and ChAdOx1 nCoV-19, approximately half completed the schedule and in most cases homologously. A quarter of the patients presented some AE, while 5.1% presented SARS-CoV-2 infection after vaccination, in most cases mild.Disclosure of InterestsNone declared

Abstract
BackgroundComorbidities, particularly cardio-metabolic disorders, are highly prevalent in patients with psoriatic arthritis (PsA) and they were associated with an increased risk of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease, which have been associated with higher morbidity and mortality. Whether PsA enhances the risk of SARS-CoV-2 infection or affects the disease outcome remains to be ascertained.ObjectivesTo describe the sociodemographic, clinical and treatment characteristics of patients with PsA with confirmed SARS-CoV-2 infection from the SAR-COVID registry and to identify the variables associated with poor COVID-19 outcomes, comparing them with those with rheumatoid arthritis (RA).MethodsCross-sectional observational study including patients ≥18 years old, with diagnosis of PsA (CASPAR criteria) and RA (ACR / EULAR 2010 criteria), who had confirmed SARS-CoV-2 infection (RT-PCR or serology) from the SAR-COVID registry. Recruitment period was between August 13, 2020 and July 31, 2021. Sociodemographic variables, comorbidities, and treatments were analyzed. To assess the severity of the infection, the ordinal scale of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID)1 was used, and it was considered that a patient met the primary outcome, if they presented criteria of categories 5 or higher on the severity scale. For this analysis, Chi2 test, Fisher’s test, Student’s test or Wilcoxon test, and binomial logistic regression using NIAID>=5 as dependent variable were performed.ResultsA total of 129 PsA patients and 808 with RA were included. Clinical characteristics are shown in Table 1. Regarding PsA treatment, 12.4% of PsA were receiving IL-17 inhibitors, 5.4% IL12-23 inhibitors, one patient apremilast and one abatacept. The frequency of NIAID≥5 was comparable between groups (PsA 19.5% vs RA 20.1%; p=0.976).

In the multivariate analysis, age (OR 1.06; 95% CI 1.02–1.11) was associated with a worse outcome of the COVID-19 (NIAID≥5) in patients with PsA, while those who received methotrexate (OR 0.34; 95% CI 0.11–0.92) and biological DMARDs (OR 0.28; 95% CI 0.09–0.78) had a better outcome.ConclusionAlthough PsA patients have a higher frequency of cardiovascular and metabolic comorbidities than those with RA, the COVID-19 severity was similar. Most of the patients had mild SARS-CoV-2 infection and a low death rate.References[1]Beigel JH, et al. Remdesivir for the Treatment of Covid-19 - Final Report.

Abstract
BackgroundIn Argentina we have witnessed two COVID 19 waves between 2020 and 2021. The first wave occurred during the spring of 2020 and it was related to the wild type of the virus, the second occurred during the fall/winter of 2021 when the gamma variant showed a clear predominance. During the first wave, patient with rheumatic diseases showed a higher frequency of hospitalization and mortality (4% vs 0.26%) when compared to the general population1; at that time, however, vaccination was not yet available.ObjectivesTo compare sociodemographic and disease characteristics, course and outcomes of SARS-CoV-2 infection in patients with immune-mediated/autoinflammatory diseases (IMADs) during the first and second waves in Argentina.MethodsSAR-COVID is a national, multicenter, longitudinal and observational registry, in which patients ≥18 years of age, with a diagnosis of a rheumatic disease who had confirmed SARS-CoV-2 infection (RT-PCR or positive serology) were consecutively included since August 2020. For the purpose of this report, only patients with IMADs who had SARS-CoV-2 infection during the first wave (defined as cases occurred between March 2020 and March 2021) and the second wave (cases occurred between April and August 2021) were examined. Sociodemographic characteristics, disease diagnosis and activity, comorbidities, immunosuppressive treatment and COVID 19 clinical characteristics, complications and outcomes: hospitalization, intensive care unit (ICU) admission, use of mechanical ventilation and death were compared among groups. Descriptive statistical analysis was performed. Variables were compared with Chi squared test and Student T test or Mann Whitney test. Multivariable logistic regression models with forward and backward selection method, using hospitalization, ICU admission and death as dependent variables were carried out.ResultsA total of 1777 patients were included, 1342 from the first wave and 435 of the second one. Patients had a mean (SD) age of 50.7 (14.2) years and 81% were female. Both groups of patients were similar in terms of socio-demographic features, disease diagnosis, disease activity, the use of glucocorticoids ≥ 10 mg/day and the immunosuppressive drugs (Table 1 below). Patients infected during the first wave have higher frequency of comorbidities (49% vs 41%; p= 0.004). Hospitalizations due to COVID 19 (31% vs 20%; p <0.001) and ICU admissions (9% vs 5%; p= 0.009) were higher during the first wave. No differences in the use of mechanical ventilation (16% vs 16%; p= 0.97) nor in the mortality rate (5% vs 4%; p= 0.41) were observed. In the multivariable analysis, after adjusting for demographics, clinical features and immunosuppressive treatment, patients infected during the second wave were 40% less likely to be hospitalized (OR= 0.6, IC95% 0.4-0.8) and to be admitted to the ICU (OR= 0.6, IC95% 0.3-0.9).Table 1.Variable (% or Mean – SD)First wave(n=1342)Second wave(n=435)p ValueFemale gender81800.7Age (years)51.0 (14.5)50.0 (13.3)0.2Disease diagnosis Rheumatoid arthritis46461 Ankylosing spondylitis10110.8 Systemic lupus erythematosus171850.9 Systemic Scleroderma551 Sjögren´s syndrome650.7 Inflammatory myopathies330.5 Vasculitis430.4Disease activity High430.5Use of immune modulatorsDMARDcs53560.2DMARDts460.1DMARDb82821Use of glucocorticoids ≥10 mg12120.9Comorbidities49410.004ConclusionThe impact of COVID 19 in Argentina, in terms of mortality in patients with IMADs was still higher compared to the general population during the second wave. However, the frequency of hospitalizations and ICU admissions was lower. These findings could be explained by the introduction of the SARS COV 2 vaccination and, probably, by the cumulative knowledge and management improvement of this infection among physicians.References[1]Isnardi CA et al.

Abstract
BackgroundThe goal of targeted treatment in patients with Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE) is to achieve clinical remission or low disease activity, with the best quality of life, low damage rates and better survival 1-4. RELESSAR is a multicenter, cross-sectional study registry of ≥18 years SLE (ACR 97) patients 5.ObjectivesTo describe demographic, clinical characteristics and treatments in SLE patients according to disease activity state. To evaluate the proportion of SLE and refractory SLE patients that are potentially candidates for Belimumab treatment (Active SLE despite standard treatment including increased acDNA autoantibodies and low complement).MethodsWe evaluated demographic and clinical data, treatments, score of damage (SLICC), activity (SLEDAI) and comorbidity (Charlson), hospital admissions and severe infections. The patients were compared according to disease activity: remission (SLEDAI = 0 and without corticosteroids), low disease activity (LDA, SLEDAI> 0 and ≤4 and without corticosteroids) and non-optimal control (SLEDAI> 4 and any dose of corticosteroids). Refractory SLE was defined according to Rituximab (RTX) use, non-response to cyclophosphamide or two or more immunosuppressant or splenectomized patients. Potential use of Belimumab according approved prescription in Argentina was analyzed.ResultsOverall, 1277 patients were analyzed: 299 (23.4%) were in remission, 162 (12.7%) in LDA and 816 (63.9%) with non-optimal control of the disease.Patients in non-optimal control group were younger, less frequently female and they showed less time of disease and lower socioeconomic status (p < 0.001). They were also more prevalent mestizos (p= 0.004), had higher SLEDAI and SLICC indexes (p <0.001) and higher use of immunosuppressant therapy (p <0.001). There was no difference regarding biologic treatment (RTX p= 0.547 and Belimumab p= 0.08). This group had higher proportion of hospital admissions and severe infections (p<0.001, respectively).Two hundred and one SLE patients fulfilled the use of Belimumab prescription criteria but only 45/201 patients (22,3%) received it in the last visit. Malar rash was the only clinical variable associated with the use of Belimumab (72.7% vs 29.8% p= 0.005).Seventy-six patients classified as refractory SLE (15.7%) and 56/76 (75.7%) never received Belimumab. Patients on Belimumab therapy were associated to treatment with lower doses of corticoids (p= 0.018) and lower rate of hospital admission caused by SLE flare (p= 0.027).ConclusionA high percentage of patients had uncontrolled disease upon entry into the registry and were potential candidates for treatment with Belimumab. The patients who received biologic treatment showed the benefit of requiring fewer doses of corticosteroids and having a lower rate of hospitalizations.References[1]Mok CC.

Abstract
BackgroundPersistent symptoms after acute COVID have been described previously. Main symptoms reported are fatigue, arthralgias, myalgias and mental sickness. Definition and methods vary widely.1ObjectivesTo asses prevalence and related factors to long COVID in a retrospective cohort of patients with rheumatic diseases from Argentina.MethodsA total of 1915 patients were registered from August 18th, 2020 to July 29th, 2021. Patients > 18 years old, with rheumatic disease and confirmed infection by SARS-CoV-2 (antigen or RT-PCR) were included. Those dead, with unknown outcome, wrong date or missing data were excluded. Demographic data, comorbidities, rheumatic disease, and characteristics of SARS-CoV-2 infection were recorded.Long COVID was defined according to NICE guidelines (persistent symptoms for more than 4 weeks, without alternative diagnosis). Long COVID symptoms were defined by rheumatologist. Severity of infection was classified according to WHO ordinal scale.We used descriptive statistics, univariate model (Student’s test, chi square test, ANOVA) and multivariate logistic regression analysis.Results230 (12%) had long COVID. Median age was 51 (IQR 40-61]) years, 82% were females, 51% were not caucasian. Median of education was 13.3 years (IQR 12 – 16), 79 % had private health insurance and 55 % were employed. Nearly half (n=762, 46%) had comorbidities, the most prevalent was hypertension (n=396, 24%).The most frequent rheumatic diseases were rheumatoid arthritis (n=719, 42%) and systemic lupus erythematosus (n=280, 16 %). Most were in low activity/remission (79%), used Conventional DMARD (n=773 patients, 45%) and steroids (n=588, 34%) at low dose (n=415, 71%).Main laboratory findings were abnormal D-dimer (n=94, 28%) and leukopenia (n=93, 26%). Most patients had a WHO ordinal scale < 5 (n=1472, 86%). Median of hospitalization at intensive care unit (ICU) was 8 days [IQR 5, 13].

Abstract
BackgroundVaccination for COVID-19 is an essential tool to fight the pandemic. Evidence suggests that patients with immune mediated inflammatory diseases (IMIDs) have less response. The application of a booster shot is a strategy that has been implemented in this population, however there is scarce information about its efficacy.ObjectivesTo assess the humoral and cellular immune response after a third dose of SARS-CoV-2 vaccine in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) with undetectable antibodies titles after primary regimen of two doses.MethodsObservational study. Patients with RA (ACR/EULAR 2010 criteria) from two rheumatology centers, ≥18 years old, with no seroconversion after two doses of SARS-CoV-2 vaccine, who received a third dose of either mRNA or vector-based vaccines (BNT162b2 or ChAdOx1 nCoV-19) were included. Anti-SARS-CoV-2 IgG antibodies, neutralising activity and T cell responses were assessed between 21 and 40 days after the third dose. Sociodemographic data, comorbidities, treatment, vaccine applied and the presence of adverse events (AE) were recorded. Statistical analysis: descriptive analysis. Chi2 or Fischer test and T test.ResultsA total of 21 non-responder patients were included, all of them females with a mean age of 63.7 years (SD 11,6) and mean disease duration of 15.8 years (SD 8). Most of them (81%) reported comorbidities, being the most frequent arterial hypertension, obesity and dyslipidemia. At vaccination time, 6 (28.6%) were receiving glucocorticoids, 3 of them ≥10 mg/day, 17 c-DMARDs (methotrexate 57.1%) and 18 (85.1%) b-DMARDs, 6 abatacept (ABT) and 4 rituximab (RTX).Regarding the primary vaccination regimen, 13 (61.9%) received two doses of BBIBP-CorV, 3 (14.3%) Gam-COVID-Vac, 3 (14.3%) ChAdOx1 nCoV-19 and 2 (9.5%) a mix regimen of Gam-COVID-Vac/mRNA-1273. The majority (95.2%) received BNT162b2 vaccine and only one of them ChAdOx1 nCoV-19, with a mean time between the second and third dose of 151,4 days (SD 46,4). After the third dose, 90.5% of the patients presented detectable anti-SARS-CoV-2 IgG and 76.2% presented neutralizing activity. The median of neutralizing antibodies titers was 1/12 (IQR 1/7-1/48). Both patients who did not present detectable antibodies were obese, recieved BBIBP-CorV during the primary regimen and BNT162b2 as the third dose, one of them was taking methotrexate and ABT and the other one RTX. Compared to other treatments, ABT and RTX was associated with no neutralizing activity in 4 (80%) patients and lower titers of neutralizing antibodies [median 1/3 (IQR 0-1/20) vs median 1/8 (IQR 1/4-1/128), p=0.197].A T-cell response was present in 41.2% of all patients after the second dose, increasing to 75% after the third dose. The use of ABT was associated with a lower frequency of T-cell response (80% vs 20%, p=0.014).Sixteen (76.1%) patients reported at least one AE, 66.7% injection site reaction and 25% flu-like syndrome.ConclusionIn this RA cohort who failed to seroconvert after two doses of SARS-CoV-2 vaccine, 90.5% presented detectable anti-SARS-CoV-2 IgG and 75% T-cell responce after a third dose. The use of ABT was associated with a lower frequency of T-cell response. This data highlights the importance of a third vaccine in this group of patients.Disclosure of InterestsNone declared

Abstract
BackgroundHigh disease activity, treatment with glucocorticoids (GC) and rituximab (RTX), have been related to worse outcomes of COVID-19.ObjectivesTo assess the clinical characteristics and severity of the SARS-CoV-2 infection in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) included in the SAR-COVID registry and to identify factors associated with poor outcomes.MethodsSAR-COVID is a national, longitudinal and observational registry. Patients of ≥18 years old, with diagnosis of RA (ACR-EULAR criteria 2010) who had confirmed SARS-CoV-2 infection (RT-PCR or positive serology) were included between 13-8-20 and 31-7-21. Sociodemographic and clinical data, comorbidities, disease activity and treatment at the moment of the SARS-CoV-2 infection were collected. Additionally, infection symptoms, complications, medical interventions and treatments for COVID-19 were registered. Infection severity was assessed using the WHO-ordinal scale (WHO-OS)1. A cut-off value of ≥5 identified patients with severe COVID-19 and those who died.Statistical analysis: Descriptive statistics. Chi2 or Fischer test, Student T test or Mann-Whitney and Kruskal Wallis or ANOVA, as appropriate. Multiple logistic regression model.ResultsA total of 801 patients were included, with a mean age of 53.1 ± 12.9 years, most of them were female (84.5%) and the median (m) disease duration was 8 years (IQR 4-14). One third were in remission and 46.4% had comorbidities, being the most frequent, hypertension (26.9 %), dyslipidemia (13.5 %), obesity (13.4 %) and diabetes (8.9%). Moreover, 3.2% had interstitial lung disease (ILD) associated with RA. At SARS-CoV-2 diagnosis, 42.5% were receiving glucocorticoids (GC), 73.9% conventional (c) disease modifying antirheumatic drugs (DMARD), 24% biologic (b) DMARD and 9.1% targeted synthetic (ts) DMARD. Among bDMARD, the most frequently used were TNF inhibitors (17%), followed by abatacept (2.8%), IL-6 inhibitors (2.4%) and rituximab (RTX) (2.1%). During the SARS-CoV-2 infection, 95.8% had symptoms, 27% required hospitalization, 7.9% presented complications and 4.4% died due to COVID-19. Severe disease and death (WHO-OS≥5) was present in 7.5% of the patients. They were older (62.9±12.5 vs 52.2±12.7, p<0.001), and they had more frequently ILD (18.5% vs 2%, p<0.001), comorbidities (82.5% vs 43.7%, p<0.001), ≥2 comorbidities (60.3% vs 25.8%, p<0.001), treatment with GC (61% vs 40.7%, p=0.04) and RTX (8.3% vs 1.6%, p=0.007). Conversely, the use of cDMARD and TNF inhibitors was more frequent in patients with WHO-OS<5, nevertheless this difference was not significant. Disease activity was comparable between groups. In multivariable analysis, older age, the presence of diabetes, ILD, the use of GC and RTX were significantly associated with WHO-OS≥5 (Figure 1). Furthermore, older age (65.7±10.8 vs 52.4±12.8, p<0.001), the presence of comorbidities (87.9% vs 44.7%, p<0.001), chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (21.9% vs 5.2%, p=0.002), diabetes (30.3% vs 7.9%, p<0.001), hypertension (57.6% vs 25.6%, p<0.001), cardiovascular disease (15.6% vs 3.2%, p=0.005), cancer (9.1% vs 1.3%, p=0.001), ILD (23.3% vs 2.4%, p<0.001) and the use of GC (61.8% vs 41.4%, p=0.02) were associated with mortality. Older age [OR 1.1 IC95% 1.06-1.13] and the use of GC 5-10 mg/day [OR 4.6 IC95% 1.8-11.6] remained significantly associated with death due to COVID-19.Figure 1.Factors associated with severe disease and death due to COVID-19 (WHO-OS≥5) in patients with rheumatoid arthritis. Multivariable analysis. (ref.: reference; PDN: prednisone; OR: odds ratio; CI: confidence interval)ConclusionTreatment with RTX and GC, as well as older age, the presence of diabetes and ILD were associated with poor COVID-19 outcomes in this national cohort of patients with RA. Older patients and those taking GC had a higher mortality rate.References[1]World Health Organization coronavirus disease (COVID-19) Therapeutic Trial Synopsis Draft 2020.Disclosure of InterestsNone declared

Abstract
BackgroundAdvances in rheumatology and new therapeutic options have certainly impacted patient survival, changing the age range, from youth to seniors. The differences between the age groups could influence the evolution of the disease and the adverse events (AEs) related to the treatments. There are few real-world data on the safety and efficacy of treatments in different age groups.ObjectivesTo evaluate the frequency of AEs and the survival of treatments according to the age in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA), psoriatic arthritis (PsA) or ankylosing spondylitis (AS).MethodsRetrospective, observational, multicenter study of real-life data of patients included in the BIOBADASAR 3.0 registry; exposed and not exposed to original biological treatments (b-DMARDs), biosimilars, targeted synthetic drugs (ts-DMARDs). The unexposed group received treatment with conventional disease-modifying drugs (cDMARDs). A Kaplan-Meier and Log Rank Test analysis was performed to study AEs-free survival and treatment in different age groups (young people <25; young adults 25-34; mature adults 34-65; old adults >65). Factors related to treatment survival were evaluated using Cox regression models.Results5,297 patients were included, 80.3% female, mean age 43.7 years (SD 15.6) and median disease progression 14.3 [IQR 11.5]. RA 4658 (87.9%); APs 490 (9.25%) and EA 149 (2.8%). The main reason for treatment discontinuation was ineffectiveness, in 624 patients in the exposed group and in 53 (2.5%) patients in control group, followed by the presence of AEs in 352 (11.2%) and 83 (3.9%), respectively (p=0.001).A mean Charlson Score of 0.268 (SD 0.6) in the exposed group and 0.306 (SD 0.7) in the control group (p=0.095). Median EAs-free survival in the exposed group was 12.5 years [IQR 16.6] while in controls was 28 years [IQR 11], p<0.0001. Median AEs-free survival was 12 years (IQR 11) in young people, 11.5 years [IQR: 4.9] in young adults, 10 years [IQR: 3.25] in mature adults and 7.6 years [IQR: 6] in old adults with a difference statistically significant (p>0.017). The exposed group presented a median treatment survival in years of 11.25 years [IQR: 10] in young people; 12.5 years [IQR: 4.7] in young adults, 7.5 years [IQR: 12.1] in mature adults and 4.5 years [IQR: 1.14] in old adults (p>0.0001). Considering only the first line of treatment, a median survival of 11.5 years [IQR: 10] was evidenced in the age group <25; 12 years [IQR: 2.6] between 25-34 years old, 10 years [IQR: 12] in the group between 34-65 years old and 5.5 years [IQR: 1.14] in the group > 65 years old (p>0.004). (Figure 1). Considering the second line of treatment, the differences between the groups were not statistically significant (p=0.57). In the multivariate regression model for patients with RA, the factors with the greatest impact on treatment survival were female sex (HR 1.3, 95% CI 1.2-1.4), old age (HR 1.01, 95% CI 1.008-1.01), treatment with steroids (HR 1.19, 95% CI1.1-1.2) and longer disease duration (HR 1.01, 95% CI1.01 – 1.02).ConclusionIn the present study we were able to demonstrate a greater occurrence of AEs in old adults and mature adults compared to young people and young adults. Conversely, survival for b-DMARDs and ts-DMARDs were greater in youth and young adults. In patients with RA, female sex, corticosteroid therapy, old aged and longer disease duration were associated with treatment discontinuation.References[1]Souto A, et al.

Abstract
BackgroundSome factors associated with severe COVID-19 outcomes have been identified in patients with psoriasis (PsO) and inflammatory/autoimmune rheumatic diseases, namely older age, male sex, comorbidity burden, higher disease activity, and certain medications such as rituximab. However, information about specificities of patients with PsO, psoriatic arthritis (PsA) and axial spondyloarthritis (axSpA), including disease modifying anti-rheumatic drugs (DMARDs) specifically licensed for these conditions, such as IL-17 inhibitors (IL-17i), IL-23/IL-12 + 23 inhibitors (IL-23/IL-12 + 23i), and apremilast, is lacking.ObjectivesTo determine characteristics associated with severe COVID-19 outcomes in people with PsO, PsA and axSpA.MethodsThis study was a pooled analysis of data from two physician-reported registries: the Psoriasis Patient Registry for Outcomes, Therapy and Epidemiology of COVID-19 Infection (PsoProtect), comprising patients with PsO/PsA, and the COVID-19 Global Rheumatology Alliance (GRA) registry, comprising patients with PsA/axSpA. Data from the beginning of the pandemic up to 25 October, 2021 were included. An ordinal severity outcome was defined as: 1) not hospitalised, 2) hospitalised without death, and 3) death. A multivariable ordinal logistic regression model was constructed to assess the relationship between COVID-19 severity and demographic characteristics (age, sex, time period of infection), comorbidities (hypertension, other cardiovascular disease [CVD], chronic obstructive lung disease [COPD], asthma, other chronic lung disease, chronic kidney disease, cancer, smoking, obesity, diabetes mellitus [DM]), rheumatic/skin disease (PsO, PsA, axSpA), physician-reported disease activity, and medication exposure (methotrexate, leflunomide, sulfasalazine, TNFi, IL17i, IL-23/IL-12 + 23i, Janus kinase inhibitors (JAKi), apremilast, glucocorticoids [GC] and NSAIDs). Age-adjustment was performed employing four-knot restricted cubic splines. Country-adjustment was performed using random effects.ResultsA total of 5008 individuals with PsO (n=921), PsA (n=2263) and axSpA (n=1824) were included. Mean age was 50 years (SD 13.5) and 51.8% were male. Hospitalisation (without death) was observed in 14.6% of cases and 1.8% died. In the multivariable model, the following variables were associated with severe COVID-19 outcomes: older age (Figure 1), male sex (OR 1.53, 95%CI 1.29-1.82), CVD (hypertension alone: 1.26, 1.02-1.56; other CVD alone: 1.89, 1.22-2.94; vs no hypertension and no other CVD), COPD or asthma (1.75, 1.32-2.32), other lung disease (2.56, 1.66-3.97), chronic kidney disease (2.32, 1.50-3.59), obesity and DM (obesity alone: 1.36, 1.07-1.71; DM alone: 1.85, 1.39-2.47; obesity and DM: 1.89, 1.34-2.67; vs no obesity and no DM), higher disease activity and GC intake (remission/low disease activity and GC intake: 1.96, 1.36-2.82; moderate/severe disease activity and no GC intake: 1.35, 1.05-1.72; moderate/severe disease activity and GC intake 2.30, 1.41-3.74; vs remission/low disease activity and no GC intake). Conversely, the following variables were associated with less severe COVID-19 outcomes: time period after 15 June 2020 (16 June 2020-31 December 2020: 0.42, 0.34-0.51; 1 January 2021 onwards: 0.52, 0.41-0.67; vs time period until 15 June 2020), a diagnosis of PsO (without arthritis) (0.49, 0.37-0.65; vs PsA), and exposure to TNFi (0.58, 0.45-0.75; vs no DMARDs), IL17i (0.63, 0.45-0.88; vs no DMARDs), IL-23/IL-12 + 23i (0.68, 0.46-0.997; vs no DMARDs) and NSAIDs (0.77, 0.60-0.98; vs no NSAIDs).ConclusionMore severe COVID-19 outcomes in PsO, PsA and axSpA are largely driven by demographic factors (age, sex), comorbidities, and active disease. None of the DMARDs typically used in PsO, PsA and axSpA, were associated with severe COVID-19 outcomes, including IL-17i, IL-23/IL-12 + 23i, JAKi and apremilast.AcknowledgementsWe thank all the contributors to the COVID-19 PsoProtect, GRA and EULAR Registries.Disclosure of InterestsNone declared

Abstract
Background:SARS CoV-2 infection has recently burst onto the global scene, and the knowledge of the course of this infection in patients with rheumatic diseases receiving immunomodulatory treatment is still insufficient. The Argentine Society of Rheumatology (SAR) designed a national registry called SAR-COVID in order to get to assess our reality.Objectives:To identify the particular characteristics of patients with rheumatic diseases and COVID-19 in Argentina (SAR-COVID Registry), and to compare them with the data reported at the Latin American and Global level (Global International Alliance Rheum-COVID Registry).Methods:A national, multicenter, prospective and observational registry was carried out. Patients older than 18 years, with a diagnosis of rheumatic disease and SARS-CoV-2 infection by PCR or serology, were included between August 13, 2020 and January 17, 2021. Demographic data, underlying rheumatic disease (activity of the disease, current treatment), comorbidities, clinical-laboratory characteristics of the SARS-CoV-2 infection, as well as received treatments (pharmacological, oxygen therapy / ventilatory support) and outcomes (hospitalization, mortality) were recorded. The characteristics of the included patients were compared with the data reported at the Latin American and global level. Descriptive statistics were performed. Comparisons between groups were made using ANOVA, chi2 or Fisher’s test, according to the type of variable.Results:Four hundred sixty-five patients from Argentina, 74 patients from Latin America and 583 from the rest of the world were included, mostly women (79.6%, 73% and 71% respectively), with a mean age of 50.2 (SD 15.3), 53.5 (DE 15.6) and 55.8 (15.5), years respectively. The most frequent rheumatic diseases in the three groups were rheumatoid arthritis (43.9%, 35%, and 39%) and systemic lupus erythematosus (16.1%, 22%, and 14%) (Table 1).In Argentina, fewer patients received specific pharmacological treatment for COVID-19 (40.9%, 68% and 43% respectively, p <0.0001), and there was a lower requirement of NIMV / IMV (Non-Invasive Mechanical Ventilation/Invasive Mechanical Ventilation) than in the rest of Latin America and the world (10.5% vs 31% vs 13%, p <0.0001).Hospitalization was lower in Argentina than in the rest of Latin America (37.4% vs 61% p 0.0002) and of the world (37.4% vs 45% p 0.0123), and mortality was numerically lower in Argentina, but without statistically significant differences between the three groups (6.9%, 12% and 11%; p 0.6311). Most of the patients, (86.9%) did not present any complications in Argentina, with a statistically significant difference with the rest of the groups (62% and 77%, p <0.0001) (Graph 1).Conclusion:The patients with rheumatic diseases and SARS-CoV-2 infection reported in this argentinian registry received less specific pharmacological treatment for COVID-19, presented fewer complications and required less ventilatory support, than those reported in the Latinoamerican and Global registry. However, no statistically significant differences were observed in terms of mortality.Graph 1.Main outcomes and evolution of patients with rheumatic disease and COVID-19.References:[1]Stokes, Erin K, Zambrano, Laura D, Anderson, Kayla N, et al.

Abstract
Background:SARS-CoV-2 infection can present with a broad clinical spectrum, from asymptomatic to lethal. Different risk factors have been recognized. Socio-economic status and educational level may affect access to the healthcare system and therefore COVID-19 infection outcome.Objectives:The aim of this study was to assess the association between socio-demographic status and educational level and SARS-CoV-2 outcomes, such as hospitalization, ICU admission, need for mechanical ventilation and death, in Argentinean patients with rheumatic diseases from the SAR-COVID Registry.Methods:We performed a cross-sectional study of consecutive adult patients with rheumatic diseases and SARS-CoV-2 infection included in the multicentric Argentinean SAR-COVID Registry. The following variables were included: gender, ethnicity, age, health insurance, educational level (under or over 12 years of education), socio-economic level according to Graffar Scale in high, medium-high, medium, medium-low, low; underlying rheumatic disease, its duration and treatment at the time of infection.SARS-CoV-2 infection outcomes were: hospitalization, admission to ICU, mechanical ventilation requirement and death.Statistical analysis was performed using Chi2, Fisher, T-test, ANOVA.Results:Five hundred and twenty-five patients were included, 422 (80.4%) were female, with a mean age of 51.3 years (SD 15.2). Most of them were caucasians (48%) or mestizos (43%) and 96.8% lived in an urban environment. Almost half of the patients (47%) were categorized as middle-class, 24% middle-high or high class, 21% middle-low or low. 48.4% of the patients were employed. Regarding educational level, 54% had more than 12 years of education.The most prevalent rheumatic disease was Rheumatoid Arthritis (40.4%), followed by Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (14.9%), Sjögren (5.5%) and Psoriatic Arthritis (5.5%). Treatments used at the time of SARS-CoV-2 infection were corticosteroids (19%), cs-DMARDs (49%), and b- and ts-DMARDs (16%).Overall hospitalization frequency was 35%, median hospital stay was 10 days (IQR 10 days), 11.6% were admitted to the ICU, 10% required mechanical ventilation and the global mortality was 8%.Notably, patients with less than 12 years of education required mechanical ventilation more frequently than the more educated ones (11.9% vs. 5.6%, p=0.026) and showed a higher mortality due to COVID-19 (9% vs. 2.8%, p=0.0004).Patients categorized as upper social classes (middle-high and high) were admitted to the hospital on a more frequent basis (74.4% of cases), when compared with middle class (64.4%) and middle-low and low class (58%) (p=0.77). Median duration of hospitalization for the aforementioned groups was 12.5 (IQR 17.3), 10 (IQR 9) and 10.5 (IQR 9.3) days respectively (p=0.60).Patients with health insurance were found to be hospitalized more frequently in comparison to those without insurance (42.4% vs. 33.7%, p=0.14), but showed similar admission rates to the ICU (11.8% vs. 12.8%; p=0.78), need for mechanical ventilation (10.7% vs. 8.7%; p=0.70) and mortality (7.1% vs. 6.5%; p=0.99).Caucasian patients had fewer hospital admissions when compared against other ethnicities (mestizos mostly) (26.1% vs. 43.4%; p<0.0001), but showed no statistically significant difference in need for mechanical ventilation 10.3% vs. 9.9% (p=0.99) or mortality 8.7% vs. 5.1% (p=0.15).Conclusion:Patients with lower educational level needed twice the frequency of mechanical ventilation, and showed thrice the mortality than those with more than 12 years of education.Albeit patients in upper social stratus and those with health insurance were admitted to the hospital in a more frequent manner, no statistically significant differences were found regarding the need for ICU, mechanical ventilation or mortality.Caucasians were hospitalized less frequently than mestizos, but had no significant differences in the other measured outcomes.Disclosure of Interests:Laura Sorrentino Grant/research support from: Unrestricted grants: Pfizer, Abbvie, Elea Phoenix.

Abstract
Background:In the last time, many papers about SARS-CoV-2 have been published in the world. However, data from latinamerican patients is still scarce. In order to assess the impact of SARS-CoV-2 infection in patients with rheumatic diseases in our country and contribute to the global knowledge about the effect of immunosuppressive therapies in this group, the Argentine Society of Rheumatology has developed the National Registry of Patients with Rheumatic Diseases and COVID-19 (SAR-COVID).Objectives:The aim of this study was to evaluate clinical characteristics and outcomes of SARS-CoV-2 infection in patients with rheumatic diseases, treated or not with immunomodulators and/or immunosuppressants.Methods:SAR-COVID is a national, multicenter, prospective and observational registry, in which patients, ≥18 years of age, with a diagnosis of a rheumatic disease who had SARS-CoV-2 infection (PCR or positive serology) are consecutively included between August 13, 2020 and January 17, 2021. Sociodemographic data, comorbidities, underlying rheumatic disease and treatment, clinical characteristics, complications, laboratory and treatment of the SARS-CoV-2 infection were recorded. Hospitalization, mechanical ventilation requirements and death were assessed to evaluate COVID-19 outcome. Statistical analysis: Descriptive analysis. Chi2 or Fischer test and T test or Mann-Whitney U test or ANOVA, as appropriate. Multiple logistic regression.Results:A total of 525 patients were included, 80.4% were female, with a median age of 52 years (IQR 40-62). Comorbidities were reported in half of them (53.3%). The most frequent rheumatological diseases were rheumatoid arthritis (40.4%) and systemic lupus erythematosus (14.9%). At the time of the infection, most of them were in remission or in minimal/low disease activity (68.2%) and 72.9% were receiving immunosuppressive or immunomodulatory treatment.Symptoms were present in 96% of the patients, the most frequent being fever (56.2%), cough (46.7%) and headache (39.2%). During infection, 35.1% received some pharmacological treatment, dexamethasone (20%) the most frequently used. One third (35.1%) of the patients were hospitalized, 11.6% were admitted to the ICU, 10.1% needed mechanical ventilation and 6.9% died due to COVID-19. Complications were reported in 12.4%, being acute respiratory distress syndrome the most prevalent (8.8%).Patients over 65 years of age were more frequently hospitalized, admitted to the ICU, needed mechanical ventilation and died due to COVID-19 (50% vs 31.4%, 22% vs 9%, 16.3% vs 5.2%, 14% vs 5%, respectively; p<0.001 in all cases). Similar results were seen in patients with vasculitis (57.7% vs 33.9%, 46.2 vs 9.8%, 34.6% vs 6 %; 30.8% vs 5.6%, respectively; p< 0.001 in all cases) and those with moderate/high disease activity (55.7% vs 26.5%, 21.3 vs 7.8%, 17.2% vs 4.2 %; 17.2% vs 4.2 %, respectively; p< 0.001 in all cases). Patients with APS were more frequently admitted to the ICU (29.4% vs 11%, p= 0.037). The presence of comorbidities was associated with higher hospitalization (46% vs 22.6%, p<0.001), admission to the ICU (17.2% vs 5.9%, p<0.001) and mechanical ventilation (10.2% vs 4.6%, p= 0.028). Immunosuppressive treatment was not associated with worse outcomes.Conclusion:In this cohort of patients with a wide distribution of rheumatic diseases, we have found clinical characteristics similar to those reported by other international cohorts. Compared with national data, the mortality reported in these patients is higher. However, it should be noted that these are early data collected during isolation and that there may be an underreporting of asymptomatic patients or with mild symptoms who do not attend the rheumatologist.Older patients, those with comorbidities, with vasculitis and with higher disease activity showed poor COVID-19 outcomes.Disclosure of Interests:Carolina Ayelen Isnardi Speakers bureau: Janssen, BMS, Grant/research support from: Unrestricted grants: Pfizer, Abbvie, Elea Phoenix.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Primary ovarian insufficiency (POI) and diminished ovarian reserve are two conditions that affect women’s fertility. Oocyte donation remains an option for these patients; however, the development of certain novel technologies, such as in vitro activation of ovarian cortex (IVA), enables the possibility of activating the pool of resting primordial follicles, increasing the chance of pregnancy. OBJECTIVE AND RATIONALE Here, we review the main pathways (PI3K and Hippo signaling) that govern the activation of primordial follicles and its application through the development of culture systems that support ovarian cortex for autologous transplantation. We also review the available data from case reports regarding outcomes of pregnancy and live birth rates with IVA. SEARCH METHODS A PubMed search was conducted using the PubMed-NCBI database to identify literature pertinent to the pathways involved in the activation of primordial follicles and the outcomes of IVA techniques from 2013 to the present. OUTCOMES Women with POI have around a 5% chance of spontaneous pregnancy. Recently, novel techniques involving the activation of primordial follicles through molecular pathways have been developed, thus increasing the odds of these patients. More recently, the introduction of a drug-free IVA technique has shown to increase the number of antral follicles with successful oocyte maturation after gonadotropin treatment, reaching pregnancy rates over 30%, either through spontaneous conception or by the implementation of assisted reproductive technology. LIMITATIONS The evidence of this review is based on a few small series, so data should be interpreted with caution, and only randomized controlled trials could estimate the real magnitude and success of the procedure. REASONS FOR CAUTION IVA technique remains an experimental strategy, with limited available data and the requirement of invasive procedures. Moreover, possible carcinogenic effects not yet determined after transplantation require special caution. WIDER IMPLICATIONS In view of the results achieved, IVA could provide a promising option for the preservation of fertility in some cancer patients and prepuberal girls where the only alternative is tissue cryopreservation. STUDY FUNDING/COMPETING INTERESTS The authors received no specific funding for this work and declared no potential conflicts of interest with respect to the research, authorship, and/or publication of this article.

Abstract
PURPOSE The state of limited resource settings that Coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic has created globally should be taken seriously into account especially in healthcare sector. In oncofertility, patients should receive their fertility preservation treatments urgently even in limited resource settings before initiation of anticancer therapy. Therefore, it is very crucial to learn more about oncofertility practice in limited resource settings such as in developing countries that suffer often from shortage of healthcare services provided to young patients with cancer. METHODS As an extrapolation during the global crisis of COVID-19 pandemic, we surveyed oncofertility centers from 14 developing countries (Egypt, Tunisia, Brazil, Peru, Panama, Mexico, Colombia, Guatemala, Argentina, Chile, Nigeria, South Africa, Saudi Arabia, and India). Survey questionnaire included questions on the availability and degree of utilization of fertility preservation options in case of childhood cancer, breast cancer, and blood cancer. RESULTS All surveyed centers responded to all questions. Responses and their calculated oncofertility scores showed different domestic standards for oncofertility practice in case of childhood cancer, breast cancer, and blood cancer in the developing countries under limited resource settings. CONCLUSIONS Medical practice in limited resource settings has become a critical topic especially after the global crisis of COVID-19 pandemic. Understanding the resources necessary to provide oncofertility treatments is important until the current COVID-19 pandemic resolves. Lessons learned will be valuable to future potential worldwide disruptions due to infectious diseases or other global crises.

Abstract
AIMS To provide information on the current evidence regarding the diagnostic performance of ultrasound and MRI for assessing parametrial involvement in cervical cancer using the histological report as the reference standard. MATERIAL AND METHODS Meta-analysis. An extensive search of papers comparing ultrasound and MRI in assessing parametrial infiltration in cervical cancer using pathologic analysis as a reference standard was performed in Medline (Pubmed) and Web of Science from January 1990 to September 2019. Quality was assessed using the QUADAS-2 tool. RESULTS Our extended search identified 205 citations but after exclusions we finally included 9 articles in the meta-analysis. The risk of bias for most studies was low for four domains were assessed in QUADAS-2. Overall, for ultrasound pooled estimated sensitivity and specificity for diagnosing parametrial infiltration was 78% (95% confidence interval [CI]:48%-93%) and 96% (95% CI=89%-99%), respectively. For MRI these figures were 68% (95% CI=54%-80%) and 91% (95% CI=84%-95%), respectively. No statistical differences were found when comparing both methods (p=0.548). Heterogeneity was low/moderate for MRI and high for ultrasound. CONCLUSION Ultrasound and MRI have similar diagnostic performance for detecting parametrial infiltration in women with cervical cancer. This might have relevance from the clinical point of view, since ultrasound is cheaper than MRI.

Abstract
Writing a good essay typically involves students revising an initial paper draft after receiving feedback. We present eRevise, a web-based writing and revising environment that uses natural language processing features generated for rubricbased essay scoring to trigger formative feedback messages regarding students’ use of evidence in response-to-text writing. By helping students understand the criteria for using text evidence during writing, eRevise empowers students to better revise their paper drafts. In a pilot deployment of eRevise in 7 classrooms spanning grades 5 and 6, the quality of text evidence usage in writing improved after students received formative feedback then engaged in paper revision.

Abstract
Aim The aim of this study was to identify factors predictive of serious infections over time in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). Methods A multi-ethnic, multi-national Latin American SLE cohort was studied. Serious infection was defined as one that required hospitalization, occurred during a hospitalization or led to death. Potential predictors included were sociodemographic factors, clinical manifestations (per organ involved, lymphopenia and leukopenia, independently) and previous infections at baseline. Disease activity (SLEDAI), damage (SLICC/ACR Damage Index), non-serious infections, glucocorticoids, antimalarials (users and non-users), and immunosuppressive drugs use; the last six variables were examined as time-dependent covariates. Cox regression models were used to evaluate the predictors of serious infections using a backward elimination procedure. Univariable and multivariable analyses were performed. Results Of the 1243 patients included, 1116 (89.8%) were female. The median (interquartile range) age at diagnosis and follow-up time were 27 (20–37) years and 47.8 (17.9–68.6) months, respectively. The incidence rate of serious infections was 3.8 cases per 100 person-years. Antimalarial use (hazard ratio: 0.69; 95% confidence interval (CI): 0.48–0.99; p = 0.0440) was protective, while doses of prednisone >15 and ≤60 mg/day (hazard ratio: 4.18; 95 %CI: 1.69–10.31; p = 0.0019) and >60 mg/day (hazard ratio: 4.71; 95% CI: 1.35–16.49; p = 0.0153), use of methylprednisolone pulses (hazard ratio: 1.53; 95% CI: 1.10–2.13; p = 0.0124), increase in disease activity (hazard ratio: 1.03; 95% CI: 1.01–1.04; p = 0.0016) and damage accrual (hazard ratio: 1.22; 95% CI: 1.11–1.34; p < 0.0001) were predictive factors of serious infections. Conclusions Over time, prednisone doses higher than 15 mg/day, use of methylprednisolone pulses, increase in disease activity and damage accrual were predictive of infections, whereas antimalarial use was protective against them in SLE patients.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE We tested the ability of a type 1 diabetes (T1D) genetic risk score (GRS) to predict progression of islet autoimmunity and T1D in at-risk individuals. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS We studied the 1,244 TrialNet Pathway to Prevention study participants (T1D patients' relatives without diabetes and with one or more positive autoantibodies) who were genotyped with Illumina ImmunoChip (median [range] age at initial autoantibody determination 11.1 years [1.2-51.8], 48% male, 80.5% non-Hispanic white, median follow-up 5.4 years). Of 291 participants with a single positive autoantibody at screening, 157 converted to multiple autoantibody positivity and 55 developed diabetes. Of 953 participants with multiple positive autoantibodies at screening, 419 developed diabetes. We calculated the T1D GRS from 30 T1D-associated single nucleotide polymorphisms. We used multivariable Cox regression models, time-dependent receiver operating characteristic curves, and area under the curve (AUC) measures to evaluate prognostic utility of T1D GRS, age, sex, Diabetes Prevention Trial-Type 1 (DPT-1) Risk Score, positive autoantibody number or type, HLA DR3/DR4-DQ8 status, and race/ethnicity. We used recursive partitioning analyses to identify cut points in continuous variables. RESULTS Higher T1D GRS significantly increased the rate of progression to T1D adjusting for DPT-1 Risk Score, age, number of positive autoantibodies, sex, and ethnicity (hazard ratio [HR] 1.29 for a 0.05 increase, 95% CI 1.06-1.6; P = 0.011). Progression to T1D was best predicted by a combined model with GRS, number of positive autoantibodies, DPT-1 Risk Score, and age (7-year time-integrated AUC = 0.79, 5-year AUC = 0.73). Higher GRS was significantly associated with increased progression rate from single to multiple positive autoantibodies after adjusting for age, autoantibody type, ethnicity, and sex (HR 2.27 for GRS >0.295, 95% CI 1.47-3.51; P = 0.0002). CONCLUSIONS The T1D GRS independently predicts progression to T1D and improves prediction along T1D stages in autoantibody-positive relatives.

The setup was primarily designed for coatings intended to perform in dynamic marine environments but can be also used for evaluation using fresh water. The concept is based on an in-line flow test cell and modular design allowing good flexibility of varying testing parameters. The flow rate that can be achieved depends on the flow cell geometry and can reach 28 km/h (15 kn) with the presented setup. Temperature may be adjusted between 15 and 35 °C. Particle and metal ion filters are parts of this setup. The dimensions of the apparatus including all components do not exceed 2 m × 2 m × 2 m. The use of the apparatus is illustrated with the results of evaluation of self-polishing anti-fouling coatings and model, silicon wafer grafted layers.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To assess the indications and possible underlying causes of emergency peripartum hysterectomy (EPH) at the present hos- pital during the 2001-2011 period. MATERIALS AND METHODS A revision of the charts and pathology reports corresponding to 42,728 parturients. RESULTS During the study period, 25 peripartum hysterectomies were performed (0.61/1.000), of which 23 were EPHs (0.54/1.000) and two were planned cesarean hysterectomies. The indication for EPH was acute postpartum hemorrhage in 22 of 23 instances (95.7%). Roughly two-thirds of the operated uteri (16/25, 64%) showed placental site anomalies, half corresponding to different degrees of placental accretism and half to anomalies derived from the implantation site intermediate trophoblast. In five cases (31%), the anomaly was an exaggerated placental site and three cases corresponded to placental site trophoblastic tumors. Of the 16 cases showing placental site anomalies, ten (62.5%) were associated with one or more previous cesarean sections. CONCLUSIONS Roughly one-third of EPHs performed at the present center during the last ten years were associated with placental site anomalies originating in the implantation site intermediate trophoblast (exaggerated placental site and placental site trophoblastic tumor). This association has not been described before, and should be taken into consideration when facing acute peripartum hemorrhage predisposing to EPH.

Abstract
An area near the city of Chihuahua has been traditionally irrigated with wastewater to grow forage crops. It has been hypothesized that metal levels could be found in these soils high enough to cause potential health problems to the population. The objective of this study was to determine heavy metal concentrations in different soils due to irrigation practices. Four soil types were evaluated; a soil with a past and present history of wastewater irrigation (S1), a soil with a history of wastewater irrigation until 2003 (S2), a soil with no irrigation history (S3), and a soil similar to S1 and adjacent to the river where the wastewater is transported (S11). Three soil depths were evaluated; 0-15, 15-30 and 30-50 cm. Consequently, a total of 150 soil samples were analyzed evaluating pH, EC, OM and the following elements; Na, K, Cd, Pb, Ni, Cr, Cu and Fe. The pH (P=0.000) and EC (P=0.000) were different for each soil type but no differences were noted for soil depth and the interaction. Maximum pH levels were noted in S3 with a value of 8.74 while maximum EC was observed in S1 with a value of 0.850 dSm-1. The OM level was different for soil type (P=0.000), soil depth (P=0.005) and the interaction (P=0.014). S1 and S11 obtained maximum levels of OM while minimum levels were noted in S3. Maximum OM levels were observed at the 0-15 cm depth followed by the 15-30 cm depth and finally at the 30-50 cm depth. The highest concentration of metals was as follows: K in S1 (359.3 mg kg-1); Cd in S1 (4.48 mg kg-1); Pb in S11 (155.83 mg kg-1); Ni in S1 (10.74 mg kg-1); Cu in S1 (51.36 mg kg-1); B in S3 (41.5 mg kg-1); Fe in S3 (20,313.0 mg kg-1), Cr in S3 (44.26 mg kg-1) and Na in S3 (203.0 mg kg-1). The conclusion is that some metals are present in the soils due to anthropogenic activities but others are present in natural forms.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The aim of this study was to evaluate the concentration of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) in follicular fluid and in granulosa cell cultures in relation to the degree of apoptosis in granulosa cells from patients with different types of ovarian response to controlled ovarian hyperstimulation. METHODS We studied 30 women who underwent controlled ovarian hyperstimulation and oocyte retrieval. Group A comprised patients with 1-4 follicles (n = 10), group B patients with 5-14 follicles (n = 10) and group C patients with >15 follicles (n = 10). RESULTS Mean (+/-SD) VEGF concentrations in follicular fluid were 1232 +/- 209, 813 +/- 198 and 396 +/- 103 pg/ml for groups A, B and C respectively (P > 0.01). Concentrations of VEGF in granulosa cell supernatant were 684 +/- 316, 1101 +/- 295 and 1596 +/- 227 pg/ml respectively (P < 0.05). Percentages of apoptotic cells in granulosa cells culture was 55.02 +/- 7.5, 23.98 +/- 4.4 and 14.2 +/- 2.3% respectively (A versus B, P < 0.01, A versus C, P < 0.006, B versus C, NS). CONCLUSIONS Our findings showed that in patients with decreased ovarian response to controlled ovarian hyperstimulation, follicular fluid VEGF concentration is elevated, the concentration from granulosa cells culture supernatant is decreased and the percentage of apoptotic granulosa cells is increased, while opposite findings occurred in patients with normal or hyper-responses.

Abstract
In orthotopic animal models of human lung cancer, bone and lymph node metastases have been observed with high frequency after periods of a few weeks, but metastases to other organs are rare. This study evaluated development of distant metastases over a six-month period in a model of orthotopic lung carcinoma in immunocompromised mice. Human A549 lung adenocarcinoma cells were stably transfected to express high levels of green fluorescent protein. Suspensions of 1 x 10(6) cells were instilled into the lungs of athymic and SCID mice to produce orthotopic human lung carcinomas. All animals had primary tumors at termination of the experiment six months later. Splenic metastases and lymph node metastases were present in 70% of the animals and two of the three SCID mice had thymic metastases. Three animals had bony metastases. Thus, a high percentage of immunocompromised mice with orthotopic lung carcinomas ultimately develop metastases.
