Abstract

Purpose: In this real‐world observational study, we analyzed the effects of different drugs on the quality of life (QoL) of patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). Method: We identified patients in our prospective SLE Registry who received new medications. We measure QoL with MOS 36‐Item Short‐Form Health Survey (SF‐36), a generic health questionnaire, and SLEQOL, a disease‐specific instrument. We compared the patients' scores before and after initiation of treatment. Results: We identified 259 episodes of drug initiation in 193 SLE patients. SLEQOL registered statistically significant changes with intravenous cyclophosphamide (total score and the domains of physical functioning, activities, and self‐image), mycophenolate (total score, treatment, mood, and self‐image) and azathioprine (total score, activities, and mood), but not with cyclosporin A and hydroxychloroquine. Two SF‐36 subscales (general health and physical functioning) showed statistically significant improvement in the patients who received intravenous cyclophosphamide. Both instruments have floor effect. There was weak correlation between changes in the QoL instruments and the patient assessment of disease activity or an objective disease activity index. Conclusion: SLEQOL distinguishes the differential effects on QoL of the various drugs. Treatment with intravenous cyclophosphamide and mycophenolate impacted the highest numbers of domains of SLEQOL, followed by azathioprine, cyclosporin A, and hydroxychloroquine. SLEQOL may be a useful outcome measure in SLE clinical trials. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Abstract

Introduction Musculoskeletal disorders are one of the most common reasons military servicemen seek medical care during their line of duty. This study aims to review the clinical profile and outcomes of military personnel with inflammatory arthritis (IA) referred to a specialist rheumatology center in Singapore. Materials and Methods Consecutive new case referrals from the Singapore Armed Forces medical centers during the study period January 1, 2010, to December 31, 2019, were retrospectively studied. Results There were 123 referrals, comprising 112 (91.1%) males, with the majority being Chinese (110, 89.4%). The mean age was 25.5 ± 11.1 years. The most common diagnoses were gout (including chronic tophaceous gout; 34, 27.6%), spondyloarthritis (18, 14.6%), palindromic rheumatism (8, 6.5%), rheumatoid arthritis (4, 3.3%), and juvenile idiopathic arthritis (4, 3.3%). Among servicemen with gout, all were male, the majority (31, 91.3%) were Chinese, and mean age was 34.1 ± 8.8 years. Mean body mass index (BMI) was 27.5 ± 3.9 kg/m2, of which 41.2% had moderate-risk and 47.1% high-risk BMI for cardiovascular disease and diabetes mellitus (DM). Comorbidities included hyperlipidemia (14), hypertension (6), and type 2 DM (3). Urate lowering therapy was initiated in 27 (79.4%) patients, comprising allopurinol (85.2%), probenecid (11.1%), and their combination (3.7%). One patient developed allopurinol-induced hepatitis; none had severe cutaneous adverse reactions. Among the remaining patients with IA, conventional synthetic disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs (DMARDs) used were sulfasalazine (8), methotrexate (4), hydroxychloroquine (4), and leflunomide (2). Biologic DMARDs used in five patients comprised adalimumab (3) and golimumab (2). Conclusion Servicemen with IA and good functional status can still be physically fit and deployable into certain combat and service support vocations. This will optimize manpower resources in military organizations with a shrinking young workforce. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

46. Superior Mesenteric Artery Syndrome: A Potentially Fatal but Reversible Gastrointestinal Manifestation of Systemic Sclerosis

Abstract

Superior mesenteric artery syndrome (SMAS) is a rare gastrointestinal disorder characterised by vascular compression of the third part of the duodenum, in the angle between the superior mesenteric artery (SMA) and the abdominal aorta. It presents as an uncommon cause of upper gastrointestinal obstruction. In patients with systemic sclerosis (SSc), gastrointestinal involvement may result in oesophageal dysmotility, gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), gastroparesis, small intestinal bacterial overgrowth (SIBO), chronic intestinal pseudoobstruction (CIPO), and fecal incontinence. Malnutrition may thus result in weight loss and reduced mesenteric and retroperitoneal adipose tissue, decreasing the angle between the SMA and aorta causing SMAS. Enteral or parenteral feeding can potentially reverse SMAS in SSc. We report a case of SMAS in an elderly female with SSc and concurrent gastrointestinal involvement, and discuss the important management considerations and potential adverse outcomes when untreated.

Abstract

Air pollution, climate change, and reduced biodiversity are major threats to human health with detrimental effects on a variety of chronic noncommunicable diseases in particular respiratory and cardiovascular diseases. The extent of air pollution both outdoor and indoor air pollution and climate change including global warming is increasing-to alarming proportions particularly in the developing world especially rapidly industrializing countries worldwide. In recent years, Asia has experienced rapid economic growth and a deteriorating environment and increase in allergic diseases to epidemic proportions. Air pollutant levels in many Asian countries especially in China and India are substantially higher than are those in developed countries. Moreover, industrial, traffic-related, and household biomass combustion, indoor pollutants from chemicals and tobacco are major sources of air pollutants, with increasing burden on respiratory allergies. Here we highlight the major components of outdoor and indoor air pollutants and their impacts on respiratory allergies associated with asthma and allergic rhinitis in the Asia-Pacific region. With Asia-Pacific comprising more than half of the world's population there is an urgent need to increase public awareness, highlight targets for interventions, public advocacy and a call to action to policy makers to implement policy changes towards reducing air pollution with interventions at a population-based level.

Abstract

Currently, testing for immunoglobulin E (IgE) sensitization is the cornerstone of diagnostic evaluation in suspected allergic conditions. This review provides a thorough and updated critical appraisal of the most frequently used diagnostic tests, both in vivo and in vitro. It discusses skin tests, challenges, and serological and cellular in vitro tests, and provides an overview of indications, advantages and disadvantages of each in conditions such as respiratory, food, venom, drug, and occupational allergy. Skin prick testing remains the first line approach in most instances; the added value of serum specific IgE to whole allergen extracts or components, as well as the role of basophil activation tests, is evaluated. Unproven, non-validated, diagnostic tests are also discussed. Throughout the review, the reader must bear in mind the relevance of differentiating between sensitization and allergy; the latter entails not only allergic sensitization, but also clinically relevant symptoms triggered by the culprit allergen.
