article 18 Citação(ões) na Scopus High prevalence of metabolic syndrome in antisynthetase syndrome(2018) ARAUJO, P. A. O.; SILVA, M. G.; BORBA, E. F.; SHINJO, S. K.Objective A high frequency of metabolic syndrome (MetS) has been recently described in different idiopathic inflammatory myopathies, but not in antisynthetase syndrome (ASS). Therefore, the aim of the present study was to determine the prevalence of MetS in ASS and also its possible association with cardiovascular the risk factors and ASS-related disease characteristics. Methods A cross-sectional single centre study of 42 consecutive ASS patients was conducted from 2012 to 2015 and compared to 84 healthy individuals matched for gender, age, ethnicity and body mass index-matched (control group). MetS was defined according to the 2009 Join Interim Statement. Clinical and laboratory data were assessed according to a standardised protocol. Results ASS patients had a median age of 41.1 years with a predominance of female gender and white race. ASS patients had a higher frequency of MetS (42.9% vs. 13.1%; p<0.001) as well as of insulin resistance than controls. Moreover, ASS patients had higher resistin, lower leptin and similar adiponectin levels in serum than controls. Further analysis of ASS patients with (n=18) and without (n=24) MetS revealed that older age at disease onset (48.7 vs. 35.4 years; p<0.001) was identified in those with the syndrome but were similar regarding disease duration, disease status, treatment, insulin resistance and serum adipocytokine levels. Conclusion The prevalence of MetS was high in ASS patients that also had serum resistin and low leptin levels. As also identified in other idiopathic inflammatory myopathies, MetS in ASS is more prevalent in older patients.- Immunogenicity and safety of primary fractional-dose yellow fever vaccine in autoimmune rheumatic diseases(2021) TONACIO, Adriana Coracini; PEDROSA, Tatiana do Nascimento; BORBA, Eduardo Ferreira; AIKAWA, Nadia Emi; PASOTO, Sandra Gofinet; FERREIRA FILHO, Julio Cesar Rente; BARROS, Marilia Mantovani Sampaio; LEON, Elaine Pires; LOMBARDI, Suzete Cleusa Ferreira Spina; MENDRONE JUNIOR, Alfredo; AZEVEDO, Adriana de Souza; SCHWARCZ, Waleska Dias; FULLER, Ricardo; YUKI, Emily Figueiredo Neves; LOPES, Michelle Remiao Ugolini; PEREIRA, Rosa Maria Rodrigues; BARROS, Percival Degrava Sampaio; ANDRADE, Danieli Castro Oliveira de; MEDEIROS-RIBEIRO, Ana Cristina de; MORAES, Julio Cesar Bertacini de; SHINJO, Samuel Katsuyuki; MIOSSI, Renata; DUARTE, Alberto Jose da Silva; LOPES, Marta Heloisa; KALLAS, Esper Georges; SILVA, Clovis Artur Almeida da; BONFA, EloisaBackground Brazil faced a yellow fever(YF) outbreak in 2016-2018 and vaccination was considered for autoimmune rheumatic disease patients(ARD) with low immunosuppression due to YF high mortality. Objective This study aimed to evaluate, prospectively for the first time, the short-term immunogenicity of the fractional YF vaccine(YFV) immunization in ARD patients with low immunossupression. Methods and Results A total of 318 participants(159 ARD and 159 age- and sex-matched healthy controls) were vaccinated with the fractional-dose(one fifth) of 17DD-YFV. All subjects were evaluated at entry(D0), D5, D10, and D30 post-vaccination for clinical/laboratory and disease activity parameters for ARD patients. Post-vaccination seroconversion rate(83.7%vs.96.6%, p = 0.0006) and geometric mean titers(GMT) of neutralizing antibodies[1143.7 (95%CI 1012.3-1292.2) vs.731 (95%CI 593.6-900.2), p< 0.001] were significantly lower in ARD compared to controls. A lower positivity rate of viremia was also identified for ARD patients compared to controls at D5 (53%vs.70%, p = 0.005) and the levels persisted in D10 for patients and reduced for controls(51%vs.19%, p = 0.0001). The viremia was the only variable associated with seroconvertion. No serious adverse events were reported. ARD disease activity parameters remained stable at D30(p>0.05). Conclusion Fractional-dose 17DD-YF vaccine in ARD patients resulted in a high rate of seroconversion rate(> 80%) but lower than controls, with a longer but less intense viremia. This vaccine was immunogenic, safe and did not induce flares in ARD under low immunosuppression and may be indicated in YF outbreak situations and for patients who live or travel to endemic areas.
conferenceObject PERIPHERAL NERVOUS SYSTEM DISEASE IN SYSTEMIC LUPUS ERYTHEMATOSUS: THE ROLE OF PREDISPOSING CONDITIONS(2018) FARGETTI, S.; BONFA, E.; SHINJO, S. K.; PASOTO, S. G.; SEGURO, L. P. C.; LOPES, M. R. U.; GONCALVES, C. R.; BORBA, E. F.- Immunogenicity and safety of the 2009 non-adjuvanted influenza A/H1N1 vaccine in a large cohort of autoimmune rheumatic diseases(2011) SAAD, Carla G. S.; BORBA, Eduardo F.; AIKAWA, Nadia E.; SILVA, Clovis A.; PEREIRA, Rosa M. R.; CALICH, Ana Luisa; MORAES, Julio C. B.; RIBEIRO, Ana C. M.; VIANA, Vilma S. T.; PASOTO, Sandra G.; CARVALHO, Jozelio F.; FRANCA, Ivan L. A.; GUEDES, Lissiane K. N.; SHINJO, Samuel K.; SAMPAIO-BARROS, Percival D.; CALEIRO, Maria T.; GONCALVES, Celio R.; FULLER, Ricardo; LEVY-NETO, Mauricio; TIMENETSKY, Maria do Carmo S.; PRECIOSO, Alexander R.; BONFA, EloisaBackground Despite the WHO recommendation that the 2010-2011 trivalent seasonal flu vaccine must contain A/California/7/2009/H1N1-like virus there is no consistent data regarding its immunogenicity and safety in a large autoimmune rheumatic disease (ARD) population. Methods 1668 ARD patients (systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), rheumatoid arthritis (RA), ankylosing spondylitis (AS), systemic sclerosis, psoriatic arthritis (PsA), Behcet's disease (BD), mixed connective tissue disease, primary antiphospholipid syndrome (PAPS), dermatomyositis (DM), primary Sjogren's syndrome, Takayasu's arteritis, polymyositis and Granulomatosis with polyangiitis (Wegener's) (GPA)) and 234 healthy controls were vaccinated with a non-adjuvanted influenza A/California/7/2009(H1N1) virus-like strain flu. Subjects were evaluated before vaccination and 21 days post-vaccination. The percentage of seroprotection, seroconversion and the factor increase in geometric mean titre (GMT) were calculated. Results After immunisation, seroprotection rates (68.5% vs 82.9% p < 0.0001), seroconversion rates (63.4% vs 76.9%, p < 0.001) and the factor increase in GMT (8.9 vs 13.2 p < 0.0001) were significantly lower in ARD than controls. Analysis of specific diseases revealed that seroprotection significantly reduced in SLE (p < 0.0001), RA (p < 0.0001), PsA (p=0.0006), AS (p=0.04), BD (p=0.04) and DM (p=0.04) patients than controls. The seroconversion rates in SLE (p < 0.0001), RA (p < 0.0001) and PsA (p=0.0006) patients and the increase in GMTs in SLE (p < 0.0001), RA (p < 0.0001) and PsA (p < 0.0001) patients were also reduced compared with controls. Moderate and severe side effects were not reported. Conclusions The novel recognition of a diverse vaccine immunogenicity profile in distinct ARDs supports the notion that a booster dose may be recommended for diseases with suboptimal immune responses. This large study also settles the issue of vaccine safety. (ClinicalTrials.gov #NCT01151644)
conferenceObject SHORT AND LONG-TERM FOLLOW-UP OF PERIPHERAL NEUROPATHY DUE TO SYSTEMIC LUPUS ERYTHEMATOSUS: EVIDENCE OF A FAVORABLE OUTCOME(2018) FARGETTI, S.; BONFA, E.; SHINJO, S. K.; PASOTO, S. G.; SEGURO, L. P. C.; LOPES, M. R. U.; GONCALVES, C. R.; BORBA, E. F.conferenceObject Peripheral Neuropathy Due to Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE) Itself: Incidence, Disease Risk Factors and Outcome(2012) FARGETTI, Simone; SHINJO, Samuel K.; PASOTO, Sandra G.; CALICH, Ana L.; BONFA, Eloisa; BORBA, Eduardo F.Background/Purpose: Peripheral neuropathy (PN) solely attributable to SLE itself is difficult to define since most of these patients are exposed to several other conditions that may cause this manifestation. The aim is to determine characteristics and outcome of PN attributed exclusively to SLE and its possible association with clinical/laboratorial features in a large cohort. Methods: SLE patients (ACR 1997) with PN were identified from our Lupus Outpatient Clinic computerized database of 1038 patients. Only patients with definitive PN proved by electroneuromyography were included. Exclusion criteria were conditions related to PN: diabetes mellitus, alcohol consumption, use of any drug related to neuropathy (thalidomide, statins, etc.), thyroid disease, infection, cancer, vitamin B12 deficiency, renal or hepatic failure, and other autoimmune disease (antiphospholipid syndrome, Sjogren’s syndrome, etc.). Medical records were extensively reviewed and included clinical/laboratorial data, treatment, and evolution. Each SLE patient with PN [n 22] was compared with 2 SLE patients without PN (controls) [n 44] that were age- and sex-matched and had similar disease duration. Results: PN exclusively attributed to SLE was identified in 22 patients (2.1%). The mean age (34.4 11.6 vs. 33.9 9.6 years, p 0.85) and disease duration (9.2 7.7 vs. 9.9 6.8 years, p 0.73) of PN were similar to controls. The interval between SLE onset and PN diagnosis was 4.9 5.7 years and the mean SLEDAI scores was higher in PN patients (5.4 7.6 vs. 1.8 2.9,p 0.001). The most common pattern on electroneuromyography was sensorimotor polyneuropathy of lower limbs (50%), followed by monon-europathy (26.9%), and polyradiculoneuropathy (15.3%). PN was associated to hematological involvement (72.7% vs. 43.2%,p 0.036), leukopenia (50% vs. 20.5%,p 0.022), lymphopenia (68.2% vs. 29.5%,p 0.004), cutaneous vasculitis (54.5% vs. 22.7%,p 0.014), and anti-Sm (50% vs. 15.9%,p 0.007). Multivariate analysis revealed that PN was related to anti-Sm (OR 5.36; 95%CI 1.37–20.99) and cutaneous vasculitis (OR 4.97; 95%CI 1.23–20.08). All SLE patients received corticosteroids, most of them associated with immunosuppressive drug (59% cyclophosphamide; 31.8% azathioprine). After immunosuppressive therapy, 63.6% improved of neurological symptoms and 31.8% remained stable. Conclusion: Our study suggested that PN attributed to SLE itself is rare in the absence of other conditions and seems to be strongly associated to anti-Sm antibodies and cutaneous vasculitis. A favorable outcome with immunosuppressive therapy is observed in most of SLE patients with this neurological manifestation.- Immunogenicity decay and case incidence six months post Sinovac-CoronaVac vaccine in autoimmune rheumatic diseases patients(2022) SILVA, Clovis A.; MEDEIROS-RIBEIRO, Ana C.; KUPA, Leonard V. K.; YUKI, Emily F. N.; PASOTO, Sandra G.; SAAD, Carla G. S.; FUSCO, Solange R. G.; PEREIRA, Rosa M. R.; SHINJO, Samuel K.; HALPERN, Ari S. R.; BORBA, Eduardo F.; SOUZA, Fernando H. C.; GUEDES, Lissiane K. N.; MIOSSI, Renata; BONFIGLIOLI, Karina R.; DOMICIANO, Diogo S.; SHIMABUCO, Andrea Y.; ANDRADE, Danieli C. O.; SEGURO, Luciana P. C.; FULLER, Ricardo; SAMPAIO-BARROS, Percival D.; ASSAD, Ana P. L.; MORAES, Julio C. B.; GOLDENSTEIN-SCHAINBERG, Claudia; GIARDINI, Henrique A. M.; SILVA, Henrique C.; MARTINS, Victor A. O.; VILLAMARIN, Lorena E. B.; NOVELLINO, Renata S.; SALES, Lucas P.; ARAUJO, Carlo S. R.; SILVA, Matheus S. R.; FILHO, Dilson M. N.; LOPES, Marta H.; DUARTE, Alberto J. S.; KALLAS, Esper G.; AIKAWA, Nadia E.; BONFA, EloisaCharacterising the response to SARS-CoV-2 post vaccination is critical in the appraisement of the induced immune response, performance and protective potential. Here the authors present data from a phase 4 clinical trial in autoimmune rheumatic disease patients 6 months post second dose of Sinovac-CoronaVac inactivated vaccine that show a marked reduction in antibody particularly in males or those under treatment with immune targeting therapies but saw no rise in COVID-19 disease. The determination of durability and vaccine-associated protection is essential for booster doses strategies, however data on the stability of SARS-CoV-2 immunity are scarce. Here we assess anti-SARS-CoV-2 immunogenicity decay and incident cases six months after the 2(nd) dose of Sinovac-CoronaVac inactivated vaccine (D210) in 828 autoimmune rheumatic diseases patients compared with 207 age/sex-balanced control individuals. The primary outcome is the presence of anti-S1/S2 SARS-CoV-2 IgG at 6 months compared to 6 weeks after 2nd vaccine dose for decay evaluation. Secondary outcomes are presence of neutralizing antibodies, percent inhibition by neutralizing, geometric mean titers and cumulative incident cases at 6 months after 2nd dose. Anti-S1/S2 IgG positivity and titers reduce to 23.8% and 38% in patients (p < 0.001) during the six-month follow up and 20% and 51% in controls (p < 0.001), respectively. Neutralizing antibodies positivity and percent inhibition declines 41% and 54% in patients (p < 0.001) and 39.7% and 47% in controls (p < 0.001). Multivariate logistic regression analysis show males (OR = 0.56;95% CI0.40-0.79), prednisone (OR = 0.56; 95% CI0.41-0.76), anti-TNF (OR = 0.66;95% CI0.45-0.96), abatacept (OR = 0.29; 95% CI0.15-0.56) and rituximab (OR = 0.32;95% CI0.11-0.90) associate with a substantial reduction in IgG response at day 210 in patients. Although cellular immunity was not assessed, a decrease of COVID-19 cases (from 27.5 to 8.1/100 person-years; p < 0.001) is observed despite the concomitant emergence and spread of the Delta variant. Altogether we show a reduction in immunity 6-months of Sinovac-CoronaVac 2nd dose, particularly in males and those under immunosuppressives therapies, without a concomitant rise in COVID-19 cases.

- Exercise Increases Insulin Sensitivity and Skeletal Muscle AMPK Expression in Systemic Lupus Erythematosus: A Randomized Controlled Trial(2018) BENATTI, Fabiana B.; MIYAKE, Cintia N. H.; DANTAS, Wagner S.; ZAMBELLI, Vanessa O.; SHINJO, Samuel K.; PEREIRA, Rosa M. R.; SILVA, Maria Elizabeth R.; SA-PINTO, Ana Lucia; BORBA, Eduardo; BONFA, Eloisa; GUALANO, BrunoSystemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) patients may show increased insulin resistance (IR) when compared with their healthy peers. Exercise training has been shown to improve insulin sensitivity in other insulin-resistant populations, but it has never been tested in SLE. Therefore, the aim of the present study was to assess the efficacy of a moderate-intensity exercise training program on insulin sensitivity and potential underlying mechanisms in SLE patients with mild/inactive disease. A 12-week, randomized controlled trial was conducted. Nineteen SLE patients were randomly assigned into two groups: trained (SLE-TR, n = 9) and non-trained (SLE-NT, n = 10). Before and after 12 weeks of the exercise training program, patients underwent a meal test (MT), from which surrogates of insulin sensitivity and beta-cell function were determined. Muscle biopsies were performed after the MT for the assessment of total and membrane GLUT4 and proteins related to insulin signaling [ Akt and AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK)]. SLE-TR showed, when compared with SLE-NT, significant decreases in fasting insulin [-39 vs. + 14%, p = 0.009, effect size (ES) = -1.0] and in the insulin response to MT (-23 vs. + 21%, p = 0.007, ES = -1.1), homeostasis model assessment IR (-30 vs. + 15%, p = 0.005, ES = -1.1), a tendency toward decreased proinsulin response to MT (-19 vs. + 6%, p = 0.07, ES = -0.9) and increased glucagon response to MT (+3 vs. -3%, p = 0.09, ES = 0.6), and significant increases in the Matsuda index (+66 vs. -31%, p = 0.004, ES = 0.9) and fasting glucagon (+4 vs. -8%, p = 0.03, ES = 0.7). No significant differences between SLT-TR and SLT-NT were observed in fasting glucose, glucose response to MT, and insulinogenic index (all p > 0.05). SLE-TR showed a significant increase in AMPK Thr 172 phosphorylation when compared to SLE-NT (+73 vs. -12%, p = 0.014, ES = 1.3), whereas no significant differences between groups were observed in Akt Ser 473 phosphorylation, total and membrane GLUT4 expression, and GLUT4 translocation (all p > 0.05). In conclusion, a 12-week moderate-intensity aerobic exercise training program improved insulin sensitivity in SLE patients with mild/inactive disease. This effect appears to be partially mediated by the increased insulin-stimulated skeletal muscle AMPK phosphorylation.
- Serum adipocytokine profile and metabolic syndrome in young adult female dermatomyositis patients(2016) SILVA, Marilda Guimaraes; BORBA, Eduardo Ferreira; MELLO, Suzana Beatriz Verissimo de; SHINJO, Samuel KatsuyukiOBJECTIVES: To analyse the frequency of metabolic syndrome in young adult female dermatomyositis patients and its possible association with clinical and laboratory dermatomyositis-related features and serum adipocytokines. METHOD: This cross-sectional study included 35 dermatomyositis patients and 48 healthy controls. Metabolic syndrome was defined according to the 2009 Joint Interim Statement. RESULTS: Patient age was comparable in the dermatomyositis and control groups, and the median disease duration was 1.0 year. An increased prevalence of metabolic syndrome was detected in the dermatomyositis group (34.3% vs. 6.3%; p=0.001). In addition, increased serum adiponectin and resistin levels were noted in contrast to lower leptin levels. In dermatomyositis patients, adipocytokine levels were correlated with the levels of total cholesterol, low-density cholesterol, triglycerides and muscle enzymes. A comparison of dermatomyositis patients with (n=12) and without (n=23) syndrome metabolic revealed that adipocytokine levels were also correlated with age, and that dermatomyositis patients with metabolic syndrome tended to have more disease activity despite similar adipocytokine levels. CONCLUSIONS: Metabolic syndrome is highly prevalent in young adult female dermatomyositis patients and is related to age and disease activity. Moreover, increased serum adiponectin and resistin levels were detected in dermatomyositis patients, but lower serum leptin levels were observed.
- Clinical and immunological features of 888 Brazilian systemic lupus patients from a monocentric cohort: comparison with other populations(2013) BORBA, E. F.; ARAUJO, D. B.; BONFA, E.; SHINJO, S. K.Epidemiological studies with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) patients have been reported worldwide but, until now, a large evaluation had not been performed in Brazil. Therefore, we determined the clinical and immunological features of 888 SLE patients followed at our service from 2008 to 2012. The mean age at SLE onset and the mean disease duration were 29.9 +/- 9.5 years old and 14.5 +/- 8.4 years, respectively. A predominance of female gender (91.9%) and Caucasian ethnicity (69.9%) were observed. Cumulative mucocutaneous manifestations (90.7%) were most commonly identified (malar rash (83.2%), photosensitivity (76.9%)) followed by articular (87.4%), hematological (44.0%) and renal (36.9%) involvements. Antinuclear antibody was detected in all patients, followed by anti-dsDNA (35.1%), anti-Sm (21.8%) and anti-ribosomal P protein antibodies (19.8%). Additional comparison of clinical and laboratory features between genders revealed that malar rash was observed more in female SLE patients (84.5% vs. 69.4%, p = 0.001). Male lupus patients presented a higher frequency of anti-dsDNA (45.8% vs. 34.2%, p = 0.047) and a trend of more nephritis (47.2% vs. 36.0%, p = 0.059). In conclusion, we identified a high prevalence of mucocutaneous manifestations in this Brazilian SLE cohort compared to other countries, mainly malar rash that was most commonly observed in female patients. Anti-dsDNA and other specific SLE autoantibodies were also identified in a higher frequency, predominantly in the male gender.
