    Serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D levels in patients with Granulomatosis with Polyangiitis: association with respiratory infection
    (2017) PEREZ, Mariana O.; OLIVEIRA, Ricardo M.; LEVY-NETO, Mauricio; CAPARBO, Valeria F.; PEREIRA, Rosa M. R.
    OBJECTIVES: To determine the possible association of serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25OHD) levels with disease activity and respiratory infection in granulomatosis with polyangiitis patients during two different periods: winter/spring and summer/autumn. METHODS: Thirty-two granulomatosis with polyangiitis patients were evaluated in the winter/spring, and the same patients (except 5) were evaluated in summer/autumn (n = 27). The 25OHD levels were measured by radioimmunoassay. Disease activity was assessed by the Birmingham Vasculitis Activity Score Modified for Wegener's Granulomatosis (BVAS/WG) and antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibody (ANCA) positivity. Respiratory infection was defined according the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention criteria. RESULTS: 25OHD levels were lower among patients in winter/spring than in summer/autumn (32.31 +/- 13.10 vs. 38.98 +/- 10.97 ng/mL, p= 0.04). Seven patients met the criteria for respiratory infection: 5 in winter/spring and 2 in summer/autumn. Patients with respiratory infection presented lower 25OHD levels than those without infection (25.15 +/- 11.70 vs. 36.73 +/- 12.08 ng/mL, p= 0.02). A higher frequency of low vitamin D levels (25OHD <20 ng/mL) was observed in patients with respiratory infection (37.5% vs. 7.8, p= 0.04). Serum 25OHD levels were comparable between patients with (BVAS/WGX1 plus positive ANCA) and without disease activity (BVAS/WG= 0 plus negative ANCA) (35.40 +/- 11.48 vs. 35.34 +/- 13.13 ng/mL, p = 0.98). CONCLUSIONS: Lower 25OHD levels were associated with respiratory infection but not disease activity in granulomatosis with polyangiitis patients. Our data suggest that hypovitaminosis D could be an important risk factor for respiratory infection in granulomatosis with polyangiitis patients.

    Phase angle obtained by bioelectrical impedance analysis independently predicts mortality in patients with cirrhosis
    (2017) BELARMINO, Giliane; GONZALEZ, Maria Cristina; TORRINHAS, Raquel S.; SALA, Priscila; ANDRAUS, Wellington; D'ALBUQUERQUE, Luiz Augusto Carneiro; PEREIRA, Rosa Maria R.; CAPARBO, Valeria F.; RAVACCI, Graziela R.; DAMIANI, Lucas; HEYMSFIELD, Steven B.; WAITZBERG, Dan L.
    AIM To evaluate the prognostic value of the phase angle (PA) obtained from bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA) for mortality prediction in patients with cirrhosis. METHODS In total, 134 male cirrhotic patients prospectively completed clinical evaluations and nutritional assessment by BIA to obtain PAs during a 36-mo follow-up period. Mortality risk was analyzed by applying the PA cutoff point recently proposed as a malnutrition marker (PA <= 4.9 degrees) in Kaplan-Meier curves and multivariate Cox regression models. RESULTS The patients were divided into two groups according to the PA cutoff value (PA > 4.9 degrees, n = 73; PA <= 4.9 degrees, n = 61). Weight, height, and body mass index were similar in both groups, but patients with PAs > 4.9 degrees were younger and had higher mid-arm muscle circumference, albumin, and handgrip-strength values and lower severe ascites and encephalopathy incidences, interleukin (IL)-6/IL-10 ratios and C-reactive protein levels than did patients with PAs <= 4.9 degrees (P <= 0.05). Forty-eight (35.80%) patients died due to cirrhosis, with a median of 18 mo (interquartile range, 3.3-25.6 mo) follow-up until death. Thirty-one (64.60%) of these patients were from the PA <= 4.9 degrees group. PA <= 4.9 degrees significantly and independently affected the mortality model adjusted for Model for End-Stage Liver Disease score and age (hazard ratio = 2.05, 95% CI: 1.11-3.77, P = 0.021). In addition, Kaplan-Meier curves showed that patients with PAs <= 4.9 degrees were significantly more likely to die. CONCLUSION In male patients with cirrhosis, the PA <= 4.9 degrees cutoff was associated independently with mortality and identified patients with worse metabolic, nutritional, and disease progression profiles. The PA may be a useful and reliable bedside tool to evaluate prognosis in cirrhosis.
