- In-depth cardiovascular and pulmonary assessments in children with multisystem inflammatory syndrome after SARS-CoV-2 infection: A case series study(2022) ASTLEY, Camilla; PEREIRA, Maria Fernanda Badue; LIMA, Marcos Santos; BUCHPIGUEL, Carlos Alberto; CARNEIRO, Camila G.; SAPIENZA, Marcelo Tatit; LEAL, Gabriela Nunes; PRADO, Danilo Marcelo Leite do; PECANHA, Tiago; SIECZKOWSKA, Sofia Mendes; MATSUO, Olivia Mari; LINDOSO, Livia; MARQUES, Heloisa Helena; SILVA, Clovis Artur; GUALANO, BrunoWe assessed PET-CT myocardial blood flow (MBF) using N-13 ammonia, brachial flow-mediated dilation, and cardiopulmonary exercise test in five post-discarged MIS-C survivors. None of the patients (median age: 9, range: 7-18 years; 3 females; 2 males) had preexisting pediatric chronic conditions. At the follow-up visit, two patients exhibited severe perfusion defect developed in the left ventricular cavity, suggesting extensive myocardial ischemia (MBF <2.0) and one patient showed persistent mild pericardial effusion. Others two patients demonstrated endothelial dysfunction. Nevertheless, all patients had lower predicted values in the VO2peak, VO2VAT, OUES, and O-2 Pulse (range: 35.2%-64.5%; 15.6%-38.2%; 1.0-1.3 L/min; 4-7 ml/beat), respectively. Our d suggested that previously health MIS-C patients had impaired MBF, endothelial dysfunction and lower cardiopulmonary capacity at follow-up analysis. Multidisciplinary further investigations should be conducted to reinforce these findings.
- Circulating sTREM-1 as a predictive biomarker of pediatric multisystemic inflammatory syndrome (MIS-C)(2023) GONCALVES, Guilherme S.; CORREA-SILVA, Simone; ZHENG, Yingying; AVELAR, Isabela; MONTENEGRO, Marilia M.; FERREIRA, Arthur E. F.; BAIN, Vera; FINK, Thais T.; SUGUITA, Priscila; ASTLEY, Camilla; LINDOSO, Livia; MARTINS, Fernanda; MATSUO, Olivia M.; FERREIRA, Juliana C. O. A.; FIRIGATO, Isabela; GONCALVES, Fernanda de Toledo; PEREIRA, Maria Fernanda B.; SILVA, Clovis Artur A. da; CARNEIRO-SAMPAIO, Magda; MARQUES, Heloisa H. S.; PALMEIRA, PatriciaThe exacerbation of the inflammatory response caused by SARS-CoV-2 in adults promotes the production of soluble mediators that could act as diagnostic and prognostic biomarkers for COVID-19. Among the potential biomarkers, the soluble triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cell-1 (sTREM-1) has been described as a predictor of inflammation severity. The aim was to evaluate sTREM-1 and cytokine serum concentrations in pediatric patients during the acute and convalescent phases of COVID-19. This was a prospective study that included 53 children/adolescents with acute COVID-19 (Acute-CoV group); 54 who recovered from COVID-19 (Post-CoV group) and 54 controls (Control group). Preexisting chronic conditions were present in the three groups, which were defined as follows: immunological diseases, neurological disorders, and renal and hepatic failures. The three groups were matched by age, sex, and similar preexisting chronic conditions. No differences in sTREM-1 levels were detected among the groups or when the groups were separately analyzed by preexisting chronic conditions. However, sTREM-1 analysis in the seven multisystemic inflammatory syndrome children (MIS-C) within the Acute-Cov group showed that sTREM-1 concentrations were higher in MIS-C vs non-MIS-C acute patients. Then, the receiver operating curve analysis (ROC) performed with MIS-C acute patients revealed a significant AUC of 0.870, and the sTREM-1 cutoff value of > 5781 pg/mL yielded a sensitivity of 71.4 % and a specificity of 91.3 % for disease severity, and patients with sTREM-1 levels above this cutoff presented an elevated risk for MIS-C development in 22.85-fold (OR = 22.85 [95 % CI 1.64-317.5], p = 0.02). The cytokine analyses in the acute phase revealed that IL-6, IL-8, and IL-10 concentrations were elevated regardless of whether the patient developed MIS-C, and those levels decreased in the convalescent phase, even when compared with controls. Spearman correlation analysis generated positive indexes between sTREM-1 and IL-12 and TNF-alpha concentrations, only within the Acute-CoV group. Our findings revealed that sTREM-1 in pediatric patients has good predictive accuracy as an early screening tool for surveillance of MIS-C cases, even in patients with chronic underlying conditions.
- COVID-19 quarantine in adolescents with autoimmune rheumatic diseases: mental health issues and life conditions(2022) IHARA, Bianca P.; LINDOSO, Livia M.; SETOUE, Debora N. D.; TANIGAVA, Nicolas Y.; HELITO, Alberto C.; SIMON, Juliana R.; VIANA, Vivianne S. L.; STRABELLI, Claudia A. A.; PEDROSO, Camilla A. A.; SIECZKOWSKA, Sofia M.; PEREIRA, Rosa M. R.; AIKAWA, Nadia E.; KOZU, Katia T.; ELIAS, Adriana M.; BUSCATTI, Izabel M.; GUALANO, Bruno; QUEIROZ, Ligia B.; CASELLA, Caio B.; V, Guilherme Polanczyk; SILVA, Clovis A. A.; CAMPOS, Lucia M. M. A.Objectives To assess mental health and life conditions in adolescents with autoimmune rheumatic diseases (ARDs) and healthy controls quarantined during COVID-19 pandemic. Method A cross-sectional study included 155 ARD adolescents and 105 healthy controls. Online survey included self-reported strengths and difficulties questionnaire (SDQ), and a semi-structured questionnaire with demographic data, daily home and school routine, physical activities, and COVID-19 information during the pandemic. Results Among patients, 56% had juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA), 29% juvenile systemic lupus erythematosus (JSLE), and 15% juvenile dermatomyositis (JDM). No differences were found regarding sex, ethnicity, and current age between ARD patients and controls (p > 0.05). Abnormal emotional SDQ (38% vs. 35%, p = 0.653) were similar in both groups. Logistic regression analyses in ARD patients demonstrated that female (OR = 2.4; 95%CI 1.0-6.0; p = 0.044) was associated with severe emotional SDQ dysfunction, whereas sleep problems were considered as a risk factor for both worse total SDQ (OR = 2.6; 95%CI 1.2-5.5; p = 0.009) and emotional SDQ scores (OR = 4.6; 95%CI 2.2-9.7; p < 0.001). Comparisons between ARD patients with and without current prednisone use showed higher median scores of peer problems in the first group [3 (0-10) vs. 2 (0-7), p = 0.049], whereas similar median and frequencies between JIA, JSLE, and JDM (p > 0.05). Conclusions Approximately one third of JIA, JSLE, and JDM patients presented abnormal total and emotional scores of SDQ during COVID-19 quarantine. Sleep problems were the main factor associated with emotional difficulties in these ARD adolescents. The knowledge of mental health issues rates in adolescents with ARD supports the development of prevention strategies, like sleep hygiene counseling, as well as the references of the affected patients to specialized mental health services, as necessary.
- Home-based exercise program for adolescents with juvenile dermatomyositis quarantined during COVID-19 pandemic: a mixed methods study(2021) ASTLEY, Camilla; SIECZKOWSKA, Sofia Mendes; MARQUES, Isabela Gouveia; IHARA, Bianca Pires; LINDOSO, Livia; LAVORATO, Sofia Simao Martins; CAMPOS, Lucia Maria Arruda; PEREIRA, Rosa Maria Rodrigues; ELIAS, Adriana Maluf; AIKAWA, Nadia Emi; KOZU, Katia; IRAHA, Amanda Yuri; FRANCO, Tathiane Christine; ROSCHEL, Hamilton; QUEIROZ, Ligia Bruni; POLANCZYK, Guilherme Vanoni; SILVA, Clovis Artur; GUALANO, BrunoBackground Exercise has been suggested to prevent deterioration of health-related quality of life (HRQL) and overall health in pediatric rheumatologic diseases during the COVID-19 pandemic. Herein we describe the effects of a 12-week, home-based, exercise program on overall health and quality of life among quarantined patients with juvenile dermatomyositis (JDM). Method This prospective, quasi-experimental, mixed methods (qualitative and quantitative) study was conducted between July and December 2020, during the most restricted period of COVID-19 pandemic in Brazil. The home-based exercise program consisted of a 12-week, three-times-a-week, aerobic and strengthening (bodyweight) training program. Qualitative data were systematically evaluated. Strengths and Difficulties Questionnaire (SDQ), Pediatric Quality of Life Inventory (PedsQOL) and Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) evaluate symptoms of mental health disorder, HRQL, and quality of sleep. Findings 11 patients (out of 27) met the inclusion criteria (91% female; mean +/- SD age: 13.5 +/- 3.2 years). Adherence to the intervention was 72.6%. Barriers to exercise involved poor internet connectivity, excessive weekly sessions, and other commitments. Even though not statistically significant, Self-report SDQ subscales Total Difficulties Score, Emotional Problems Score, and PedsQOL School Functioning Score improved after intervention (- 2.4; 95%confidence interval [CI] -5.1; 0.2, p = 0.06; - 1.0; 95%CI -2.2; 0.2, p = 0.09 and; 11.7; 95%CI -2.5; 25.8, p = 0.09, respectively). Remaining SDQ subscales were not altered. Six themes emerged from patients' and parents' comments (qualitative results). Patients engaged in exercise reported other health-related benefits including increased motivation, concentration and strength. Interpretation A home-based exercise program was associated with qualitative perceptions of improvements in overall health and HRQL by quarantined adolescents with JDM during COVID-19 pandemic. Lessons from this trial may help developing interventions focused on tackling physical inactivity in JDM.
- Health-related quality of life and functionality in primary caregiver of surviving pediatric COVID-19(2023) MARTINS, Fernanda; GONCALVES, Fernanda T.; IMAMURA, Marta; BARBOZA, Daniela S.; MATHEUS, Denise; PEREIRA, Maria Fernanda B.; MARQUES, Heloisa H. S.; CORREA-SILVA, Simone; MONTENEGRO, Marilia M.; FINK, Thais T.; LINDOSO, Livia; BAIN, Vera; FERREIRA, Juliana C. O. A.; ASTLEY, Camilla; MATSUO, Olivia M.; SUGUITA, Priscila; TRINDADE, Vitor; PAULA, Camila S. Y.; LITVINOV, Nadia; PALMEIRA, Patricia; GUALANO, Bruno; DELGADO, Artur F.; CARNEIRO-SAMPAIO, Magda; FORSAIT, Silvana; ODONE-FILHO, Vicente; ANTONANGELO, Leila; BATTISTELLA, Linamara R.; SILVA, Clovis A.ObjectivesTo prospectively assess health-related quality of life (HRQoL), global functionality, and disability in primary caregivers of surviving children and adolescents after COVID-19. MethodsA longitudinal observational study was carried out on primary caregivers of surviving pediatric post-COVID-19 patients (n = 51) and subjects without COVID-19 (n = 60). EuroQol five-dimension five-level questionnaire (EQ-5D-5L) and 12-question WHO Disability Assessment Schedule 2.0 (WHODAS 2.0) were answered for both groups. The univariate regression analysis was carried out using SPSS (v 20) and significance was established at 5%. ResultsThe median duration between COVID-19 diagnosis in children and adolescents and longitudinal follow-up visits was 4.4 months (0.8-10.7). The median age of children and adolescents caregivers with laboratory-confirmed COVID-19 was similar to primary caregivers of subjects without laboratory-confirmed COVID-19 [43.2 (31.6-60.9) vs. 41.5 (21.6-54.8) years, p = 0.08], as well as similar female sex (p = 1.00), level of schooling (p = 0.11), social assistance program (p = 0.28), family income/month U$ (p = 0.25) and the number of household's members in the residence (p = 0.68). The frequency of slight to extreme problems (level & GE; 2) of the pain/discomfort domain according to EQ-5D-5L score was significantly higher in the former group [74% vs. 52.5%, p = 0.03, OR = 2.57 (1.14-5.96)]. The frequency of disability according to WHODAS 2.0 total score was similar to those without disability and unknown (p = 0.79); however, with a very high disability in both groups (72.5% and 78.3%). Further analysis of primary caregivers of children and adolescents with post-COVID-19 condition (PCC) [n = 12/51 (23%)] compared to those without PCC [n = 39/51(77%)] revealed no differences between demographic data, EQ-5D-5L and WHODAS 2.0 scores in both groups (p > 0.05). ConclusionWe longitudinally demonstrated that pain/discomfort were predominantly reported in approximately 75% of primary caregiver of COVID-19 patients, with high disability in approximately three-quarters of both caregiver groups. These data emphasized the prospective and systematic caregiver burden evaluation relevance of pediatric COVID-19.
- Poor Sleep quality and health-related quality of life impact in adolescents with and without chronic immunosuppressive conditions during COVID-19 quarantine(2021) HELITO, Alberto C.; LINDOSO, Livia; SIECZKOWSKA, Sofia M.; ASTLEY, Camilla; QUEIROZ, Ligia B.; ROSE, Natalia; SANTOS, Claudia Renata P.; BOLZAN, Thalis; PERALTA, Rita Maria I. A.; FRANCO, Ruth R.; COMINATO, Louise; PEREIRA, Rosa Maria R.; TANNURI, Uenis; CAMPOS, Lucia Maria A.; LOURENCO, Benito; TOMA, Ricardo K.; MEDEIROS, Karina; WATANABE, Andreia; GRANGEIRO, Patricia Moreno; FARHAT, Sylvia C.; CASELLA, Caio B.; V, Guilherme Polanczyk; GUALANO, Bruno; SILVA, Clovis A.OBJECTIVE: To assess the possible factors that influence sleep quality in adolescents with and without chronic immunosuppressive conditions quarantined during the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic. METHODS: This cross-sectional study included 305 adolescents with chronic immunocompromised conditions and 82 healthy adolescents. Online surveys were completed, which included questions on socio-demographic data and self-rated healthcare routine during COVID-19 quarantine and the following validated questionnaires: the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI), Pediatric Quality of Life Inventory 4.0 (PedsQL4.0), and Pediatric Outcome Data Collection Instrument (PODCI). RESULTS: The median current age [14 (10-18) vs. 15 (10-18) years, p=0.847] and frequency of female sex (62% vs. 58%, p=0.571) were similar in adolescents with chronic conditions compared with healthy adolescents. The frequency of poor sleep quality was similar in both groups (38% vs. 48%, p=0.118). Logistic regression analysis, including both healthy adolescents and adolescents with chronic conditions (n=387), demonstrated that self-reported increase in screen time (odds ratio [OR] 3.0; 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.3-6.8; p=0.008) and intrafamilial violence report (OR 2.1; 95% CI 1.2-3.5; p=0.008) were independently associated with poor sleep quality in these adolescents. However, the PODCI global function score was associated with a lower OR for poor sleep quality (OR 0.97; 95% CI 0.94-0.99; p=0.001). Further logistic regression, including only adolescents with chronic conditions (n=305), demonstrated that self-reported increase in screen time (OR 3.1; 95% CI 1.4-6.8; p=0.006) and intrafamilial violence report (OR 2.0; 95% CI 1.2-3.4; p=0.011) remained independently associated with poor quality of sleep, whereas a lower PODCI global function score was associated with a lower OR for sleep quality (OR 0.96; 95% CI 0.94-0.98; p < 0.001). CONCLUSION: Self-reported increases in screen time and intrafamilial violence report impacted sleep quality in both healthy adolescents and those with chronic conditions. Decreased health-related quality of life was observed in adolescents with poor sleep quality.
- Emotional, hyperactivity and inattention problems in adolescents with immunocompromising chronic diseases during the COVID-19 pandemic(2023) CAMPOS, Reinan T.; LINDOSO, Livia; SOUSA, Renan A. de; HELITO, Alberto C.; IHARA, Bianca P.; STRABELLI, Claudia A. A.; PARADELAS, Levi M. V.; CARNEIRO, Beatriz O. L.; CARDOSO, Maria Paula R.; SOUZA, Jean Paulo V. de; FREIRE, Marianna R. de M.; ASTLEY, Camilla; LAURENTINO, Moises F.; BUSCATTI, Izabel M.; KOZU, Katia; AIKAWA, Nadia E.; SALLUM, Adriana M. E.; FERREIRA, Juliana C. O.; SIMON, Juliana R.; VIANA, Vivianne S. L.; QUEIROZ, Ligia B.; GUALANO, Bruno; ROSCHEL, Hamilton; PEREIRA, Rosa Maria R.; TOMA, Ricardo K.; WATANABE, Andreia; GRANGEIRO, Patricia M.; CASELLA, Caio B.; FARHAT, Sylvia C.; V, Guilherme Polanczyk; CAMPOS, Lucia Maria A.; SILVA, Clovis A.Objective: To assess factors associated with emotional changes and Hyperactivity/Inattention (HI) motivated by COVID-19 quarantine in adolescents with immunocompromising diseases.Methods: A cross-sectional study included 343 adolescents with immunocompromising diseases and 108 healthy adolescents. Online questionnaires were answered including socio-demographic data and self-rated healthcare routine during COVID-19 quarantine and validated surveys: Strengths and Difficulties Questionnaire (SDQ), Pitts-burgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI), Pediatric Quality of Life Inventory 4.0 (PedsQL4.0).Results: The frequencies of abnormal emotional SDQ scores from adolescents with chronic diseases were similar to those of healthy subjects (110/343 [32%] vs. 38/108 [35%], p = 0.548), as well as abnormal hyperactivity/inat-tention SDQ scores (79/343 [23%] vs. 29/108 [27%], p = 0.417). Logistic regression analysis of independent var-iables associated with abnormal emotional scores from adolescents with chronic diseases showed: female sex (Odds Ratio [OR = 3.76]; 95% Confidence Interval (95% CI) 2.00-7.05; p < 0.001), poor sleep quality (OR = 2.05; 95% CI 1.08-3.88; p = 0.028) and intrafamilial violence during pandemic (OR = 2.17; 95% CI 1.12-4.19; p = 0.021) as independently associated with abnormal emotional scores, whereas total PedsQL score was inversely associated with abnormal emotional scores (OR = 0.95; 95% CI 0.93-0.96; p < 0.0001). Logistic regression analysis associated with abnormal HI scores from patients evidenced that total PedsQL score (OR = 0.97; 95% CI 0.95-0.99; p = 0.010], changes in medical appointments during the pandemic (OR = 0.39; 95% CI 0.19-0.79; p = 0.021), and reliable COVID-19 information (OR = 0.35; 95% CI 0.16-0.77; p = 0.026) remained inversely associated with abnormal HI scores.Conclusion: The present study showed emotional and HI disturbances in adolescents with chronic immunosuppres-sive diseases during the COVID-19 pandemic. It reinforces the need to promptly implement a longitudinal pro-gram to protect the mental health of adolescents with and without chronic illnesses during future pandemics.
- Impaired cardiorespiratory fitness and endothelial function after SARS-CoV-2 infection in a sample of mainly immunocompromised youth(2023) ASTLEY, Camilla; PRADO, Danilo Marcelo Leite do; SIECZKOWSKA, Sofia Mendes; ESTEVES, Gabriel P.; SUGUITA, Priscila; FINK, Thais; LINDOSO, Livia; MATSUO, Olivia; MARTINS, Fernanda; BAIN, Vera; PEREIRA, Maria Fernanda Badue; MARQUES, Heloisa Helena; MALLUF, Adriana; LEAL, Gabriela Nunes; SILVA, Clovis Artur; ROSCHEL, Hamilton; GUALANO, BrunoThis study aimed to compare cardiopulmonary fitness and endothelial function 6 months after hospital diagnosis in a sample mainly comprising immunocompromised patients with confirmed severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection versus noninfected controls. Youth (n = 30; age: 14 yr; 60% females) with confirmed SARS-CoV-2 seen in a tertiary hospital of Sao Paulo, Brazil, were matched by propensity score based on BMI, age, sex, and pre-existing diseases with a control group who had not been tested positive for SARS-CoV-2 infection (n = 30; age: 15 yr; 50% females). Cardiopulmonary fitness (by means of a cardiopulmonary exercise test: CPET) and brachial flow-mediated dilation (%b-FMD) were assessed 3-6 mo after diagnosis. Patients were matched by propensity score based on BMI, age, sex and pre-existing diseases, if any, with a control group who had not been tested positive for SARS-CoV-2. Compared with controls, patients with COVID-19 showed reduced ventilatory anaerobic threshold (VAT) and peak exercise time and minute ventilation/maximum voluntary ventilation (V_E/MVV) (all P < 0.01). Brachial endothelial function variables were all adjusted for body surface area (BSA). Patients with COVID-19 had decreased %b-FMD (3.6 vs. 5.4; P = 0.03) mean and positive flow (P = 0.02 and P = 0.03, respectively) versus controls. Adjusted linear regression models exploring associations between CPET variables, %b-FMD and the potential predictors post-COVID-19 syndrome, number of symptoms, hospitalization, and COVID severity did not detect significant associations, except for total shear rate in hospitalization (coefficient: -65.07 [95%CI -119.5;-10.5], P = 0.02). Immunocompromised and previously healthy children and adolescents with COVID-19 presented with impaired exercise capacity and endothelial dysfunction when compared with their noninfected counterparts, but the mechanisms remain unknown.
