    Dyslipidaemia in juvenile dermatomyositis: the role of disease activity
    (2013) KOZU, K. T.; SILVA, C. A.; BONFA, E.; SALLUM, A. M.; PEREIRA, R. M. R.; VIANA, V. S.; BORBA, E.; CAMPOS, L. M.
    Objective To evaluate the presence of dyslipidaemia in JDM and its possible risk factors. Methods Twenty-five JDM patients were compared to 25 healthy controls according to demographic data, body composition, fasting lipoproteins, glycaemia, insulin, antibodies and muscle enzymes. JDM scores were assessed: CMAS, MMT, DAS, MYOACT and MYTAX. Results Abnormal lipid profile was found in nine patients and four controls (36% vs. 16%, p=0.196). TDM patients demonstrated significant higher levels of triglycerides (TG) [80(31-340) vs. 61(19-182) mgldL, p=0.011 j and higher frequency of abnormal levels of high density lipoproteins (HDL) (28% vs. 4%, p=0.04) when compared to controls. JDM patients with dyslipidaemia demonstrated significant lower median of HDL levels 129(0-49) vs. 50(39-72) mgldL, p=0.0005, higher frequency of low HDL levels (77% vs. 0%, p=0.0001),.higher TG levels [128(31-340) vs. 69(46-138) mgldL, p=0.011), and also a higher frequency of increased levels of TG (44% vs. 0%, p=0.01), and TC (33% vs. 0%, p=0.03) when compared to those without this condition. Positive anti-LPL antibody was detected in just one JDM patient with abnormal lipid profile. JDM with dyslipidaemia had higher ESR (26 vs. I 4.5mmllsthour, p=0.006), CRP (2.1 vs. 0.4mgldL, p=0.01), DAS (6 vs. 2, p=0.008), MYOACT(0.13 vs. 0.01, p=0.012), MYTAX(0.06vs.0,p=0.018), and lower scores of CMAS (47 vs. 52, p=0.024) and MMT (78 vs. 80, p=0.001) compared to JDM without dyslipidaemia. Positive correlations were detected between TG levels and CRP (7-.19.697, p=0.001), DAS (r-0.610, p=0.001), MYOACT (r=0.661, p=0.001),114YTAX (r-0.511, p=0.008), and negative correlations with CMAS (r=-0.506, p=0.009) and MMT (r=-0.535, p=0.005). No differences were found between these groups regarding body composition, lipodystrophy, anti-LPL antibodies, and treatment except by higher frequency of cyclosporine current use in patients with dys.lipidaemia (33% vs. 0%, p=0.03). Conclusions Dyslipidaemia in JDM patients was characterised by increased levels of TG and low levels of HDL. Disease activity and cyclosporine use were the mainly factors associated to these abnormalities.

    (2015) SOUZA, F. H. C. de; SHINJO, S. K.; YAMAKAMI, L. Y. S.; VIANA, V. S. T.; BARACAT, E. C.; BONFA, E.; SILVA, C. A.
    Objective To assess ovarian reserve markers and anti-corpus luteum (anti-CoL) antibodies in dermatomyositis (DM) patients. Methods Forty female DM patients were invited to participate. Exclusion criteria included hormonal contraceptive use within the last six months, neoplasia associations, overlapped systemic autoimmune diseases, current pregnancy, gynaecological surgery and individual choice not to participate. The final experimental group for this cross-sectional study included 16 DM patients and 23 healthy controls, each of whom was evaluated during the early follicular phase of the menstrual cycle. Values for IgG anti-CoL (via immunoblotting), follicle stimulating hormone (FSH), estradiol, inhibin B, anti-Mullerian hormone (AMH) serum levels (via ELISA) and sonographic antral follicle count (AFC) were determined. Results DM patients and controls were of comparable mean age (p>0.05). The mean age of DM onset was 29.1 +/- 4.7 years, with disease duration of 5.6 +/- 3.2 years. Menstrual cycle characteristics, comorbidity and lifestyle were similar amongst patients in both groups (p>0.05). AMH values of <= lng/mL (p=0.027) and AFC values (p=0.017) were significantly reduced in DM patients relative to the control group, whereas serum estradiol levels (p<0.001) were higher in DM patients compared to controls. In contrast, serum FSH and inhibin B levels, ovarian volumes, and anti-CoL antibody frequency were similar in both groups. Differences in AFC and estradiol were determined to be significant following Bonferroni correction for multiple testing. Conclusion We identified a diminished ovarian reserve in DM patients of reproductive age. Further studies are necessary to assess the idiopathic inflammatory myopathy-related factors involved in the ovarian impairment of this patient population.

    TESTICULAR SERTOLI CELL FUNCTION IN ANKYLOSING SPONDYLITIS: THE POSSIBLE EFFECT OF TNF BLOCKAGE
    (2012) SAAD, C. G. S.; ALMEIDA, B. P. de; SOUZA, F. H. C.; MORAES, J. C. B.; NUKUMIZU, L. A.; SAMPAIO-FARROS, P. D.; VIANA, V. S. T.; BONFA, E.; SILVA, C. A.
    Introduction: Inhibin B is an important testicular Sertoli cell function marker allowing a global evaluation of testicular tissue. However there are no data regarding this cell function in ankylosing spondylitis (AS) patients.in this hormone production. Materials and Methods: 20 consecutive male AS patients and 24 healthy controls were evaluated. At study entry, AS patients were not receiving sulfasalazine/methotrexate and they never used biological/cytotoxic agents. Serum dimeric inhibin B levels were measured by a double-antibody ELISA. Demographic, disease parameters and urologic evaluation were systematically performed. The latter included testicular Döppler ultrasound, hormone profile and semen analysis. Ten of these patients received anti-TNF treatment and they were re-evaluated for inhibin B and disease parameters at 6 months(6M). Four of them also repeated sperm analysis. Results: At study entry, the median of current and spermarche age were similar in AS patients and controls [33(17-53) vs. 28.5(15-54) years, p=0.175; 13(9-18) vs. 12(11-15)years, p=0.358; respectively]. The median of inhibin B [68(23-265) vs. 112.9(47.8-231.9)pg/mL, p=0.111], FSH levels and the other hormones were comparable in both groups (p>0.05). All patients and controls had normal sperm motility and concentration with two AS patients presenting borderline low inhibin B levels. Further analysis at 6M of the 10 patients referred for anti-TNF therapy, including one with borderline inhibin B, revealed that median inhibin B levels remained largely stable [126.5(24-316) vs. 116.5(28-265)pg/mL, p=0.431]. Sperm motility/concentration were preserved in the four patients that performed this analysis after anti-TNF. Conclusions: This is the first study to demonstrate, through a specific marker, a normal testicular Sertoli cell function associated with preserved sperm quality in AS patients. We further identified that anti-TNF drugs do not seem to have a deleterious effect in inhibin B production reinforcing its safety for testicular function in this disease.

    Subclinical impairment of ovarian reserve in juvenile systemic lupus erythematosus after cyclophosphamide therapy
    (2012) AIKAWA, N. E.; SALLUM, A. M. E.; PEREIRA, R. M. R.; SUZUKI, L.; VIANA, V. S. T.; BONFA, E.; SILVA, C. A.
    Objective To perform systematic assessment of ovarian reserve markers using a combination of tests in juvenile systemic lupus erythematosus (JSLE) patients without amenorrhoea. Methods Twenty-seven consecutive JSLE female patients and 13 healthy controls without amenorrhoea were evaluated for 6 months. Ovarian reserve was assessed during early follicular phase by serum levels of follicle stimulating hormone (FSH), luteinising hormone (LH), estradiol, inhibin A, inhibin B and anti-Mullerian hormone (AMH). Ovarian size was measured by abdominal ultrasonography. Demographic data, disease activity, damage and treatment were also analysed. Results The median of current age was similar in ISLE patients and controls (16.5 vs. 15years, p=0.31) with a significantly higher age at menarche (13 vs. 12years, p=0.03). A trend of lower median total antral follicle count was observed in JSLE compared to controls (9 vs. 14.5, p=0.062) with similar median of other ovarian reserve parameters (p>0.05). Further evaluation of patients treated with cyclophosphamide and those without this treatment revealed a higher median FSH levels (6.4 vs. 4.6 IU/L, p=0.023). Inhibin B, AMH levels and ovarian volume were also lower but did not reach statistical significance (10.8 vs. 27.6 pg/mL, p=0.175; 0.6 vs. 1.5 ng/mL, p=0.276; 3.4 vs. 5 cm(3), p=0.133; respectively). LH (2.7 vs. 2.9 IU/L, p=0.43), estradiol (50 vs. 38 pg/mL, p=0.337) and inhibin A (1.1 vs. 0 pg/mL, p=0.489) levels were comparable in both groups. Conclusions Our study suggests that ovarian reserve after cyclophosphamide treatment may be hampered in spite of the presence of menstrual cycles emphasising the relevance of gonadal protection during the use of this alkylating agent.

    Anti-alpha-enolase antibodies in Behcet's disease: a marker of mucocutaneous and articular disease activity?
    (2018) PRADO, L. L.; GONCALVES, C. R.; VIANA, V. T.; SAAD, C. G. S.; BONFA, E.
    Objective. To assess IgM anti-alphaenolase antibodies (AAEA) in systemic Behget's disease (BD) and its possible association with clinical manifestations and disease activity. Methods. Ninety-seven consecutively selected BD patients were compared to 36 enteropathic spondyloarthritis (ESpA) [24 Crohn's disease (CD) and 12 ulcerative colitis (UC)] patients and 87 healthy controls. 1gM AAEA was detected by immunoblotting. Disease activity was assessed by standardised indexes, Brazilian BD Current Activity Form (BR-BDCAF) for BD and HarveyBradshaw Index (HBI) for CD and UC patients. A second evaluation was performed in BD patients (n=56), regarding IgM AAEA presence, disease activity scores and C-reactive protein (CRP). Results. Higher IgM AAEA prevalence was found in 97 BD (17.7%) compared to ESpA (2.8%) and healthy controls (2.3%), p< O. O01. IgM AAEA frequency was higher in active BD compared to inactive BD (30.2% vs. 7.4%, p=O. O06), a finding confirmed in the second cross-sectional evaluation of 56 of these BD patients (45.5% vs. 13.3%, p=O. 02). Mean BR-BDCAF scores were higher in IgM AAEA positive group on both evaluations (9.1 + 5.4 vs. 4.9 + 4.9, p=O. O02; 5.0 + 4.9 vs. 2.2 + 2.9, p=O. 01, respectively). BD patients with mucocutaneous and articular symptoms presented higher IgM AAEA positivity in the first and second evaluations (64.7% vs. 27.5%, p=O. O05; 36.4% vs. 7.1%, p=0.039 respectively). Conclusions. Our data support the notion that alpha-enolase is a target antigen in BD, particularly associated with disease activity, mucocutaneous and articular involvement. In addition, IgM AAEA may distinguish BD from ESpA, especially in patients with high disease activity.

    Organ-specific autoantibodies and autoimmune diseases in juvenile systemic lupus erythematosus and juvenile dermatomyositis patients
    (2012) AIKAWA, N. E.; JESUS, A. A.; LIPHAUS, B. L.; SILVA, C. A.; CARNEIRO-SAMPAIO, M.; VIANA, V. S. T.; SALLUM, A. M. E.
    Objectives To our knowledge, no study assessed simultaneously a variety of organ-specific autoantibodies and the prevalence of organ-specific autoimmune diseases in juvenile systemic lupus erythematosus (ISLE) and juvenile dermatomyositis (JDM). Therefore, the purpose of this study was to evaluate organ-specific autoantibodies and autoimmune diseases in JSLE and JDM patients. Methods Forty-one JSLE and 41 JDM patients were investigated for autoantibodies associated with autoimmune hepatitis, primary biliary cirrhosis, type I diabetes mellitus (TIDM, autoimmune thyroiditis (AT), autoimmune gastritis and coeliac disease (CD). Patients with positive antibodies were investigated for the respective organ-specific autoimmune diseases. Results Mean age at diagnosis was higher in ISLE compared to JDM patients (10.3 +/- 3.4 vs. 7.3 +/- 3.1 years, p=0.0001). The frequencies of organ-specific autoantibodies were similar in JSLE and JDM patients (p>0.05). Of note, a high prevalence of TIDM and AT autoantibodies was observed in both groups (20% vs. 15%, p=0.77 and 24% vs. 15%, p=0.41; respectively). Higher frequencies of ANA (93% vs. 59%, p=0.0006), anti-dsDNA (61% vs. 2%, p<0.0001), anti-Ro, anti-Sm, anti-RNP, anti-La and IgG-aCL were observed in JSLE (p<0.05). Organ-specific autoimmune diseases were evidenced only in ISLE patients (24% vs. 0%, p=0.13). Two ISLE patients had TIDM associated with Hashimoto thyroiditis and another had subclinical thyroiditis. Another JSLE patient had CD diagnosis based on iron deficiency anaemia, anti-endomysial antibody, duodenal biopsy compatible to CD and response to a gluten-free diet. Conclusions Organ-specific diseases were observed solely in ISLE patients and required specific therapy. The presence of these antibodies recommends the evaluation of organ-specific diseases and a rigorous follow-up.
