V.- Methotrexate and rheumatoid arthritis associated interstitial, Lung disease(2021) JUGE, Pierre-Antoine; LEE, Joyce S.; LAU, Jessica; KAWANO-DOURADO, Leticia; SERRANO, Jorge Rojas; SEBASTIANI, Marco; KODURI, Gouri; MATTESON, Eric; BONFIGLIOLI, Karina; SAWAMURA, Marcio; KAIRALLA, Ronaldo; CAVAGNA, Lorenzo; CASSIONE, Emanuele Bozzalla; MANFREDI, Andreina; MEJIA, Mayra; RODRIGUEZ-HENRIQUEZ, Pedro; GONZALEZ-PEREZ, Montserrat I.; FALFAN-VALENCIA, Ramces; BUENDIA-ROLDAN, Ivette; PEREZ-RUBIO, Gloria; EBSTEIN, Esther; GAZAL, Steven; BORIE, Raphael; OTTAVIANI, Sebastien; KANNENGIESSER, Caroline; WALLAERT, Benoit; UZUNHAN, Yurdagul; NUNES, Hilario; VALEYRE, Dominique; SAIDENBERG-KERMANAC, Nathalie; BOISSIER, Marie-Christophe; WEMEAU-STERVINOU, Lidwine; FLIPO, Rene-Marc; MARCHAND-ADAM, Sylvain; RICHETTE, Pascal; ALLANORE, Yannick; DROMER, Claire; TRUCHETET, Marie-Elise; RICHEZ, Christophe; SCHAEVERBEKE, Thierry; LIOTE, Huguette; THABUT, Gabriel; DEANE, Kevin D.; SOLOMON, Joshua J.; DOYLE, Tracy; RYU, Jay H.; ROSAS, Ivan; HOLERS, V. Michael; BOILEAU, Catherine; DEBRAY, Marie-Pierre; PORCHER, Raphael; SCHWARTZ, David A.; VASSALLO, Robert; CRESTANI, Bruno; DIEUDE, PhilippeQuestion addressed by the study: Methotrexate (MTX) is a key anchor drug for rheumatoid arthritis (RA) management. Fibrotic interstitial lung disease (ILD) is a common complication of RA. Whether MTX exposure increases the risk of ILD in patients with RA is disputed. We aimed to evaluate the association of prior MTX use with development of RA-ILD. Methods: Through a case-control study design with discovery and international replication samples, we examined the association of MTX exposure with ILD in 410 patients with chronic fibrotic ILD associated with RA (RA-ILD) and 673 patients with RA without ILD. Estimates were pooled over the different samples using meta-analysis techniques. Results: Analysis of the discovery sample revealed an inverse relationship between MTX exposure and RA-ILD (adjusted OR 0.46, 95% CI 0.24 0.90; p=0.022), which was confirmed in the replication samples (pooled adjusted OR 0.39, 95% CI 0.19 -0.79; p=0.009). The combined estimate using both the derivation and validation samples revealed an adjusted OR of 0.43 (95% CI 0.26 0.69; p=0.0006). MTX ever-users were less frequent among patients with RA-ILD compared to those without II,D, irrespective of chest high-resolution computed tomography pattern. In patients with RA-ILD, ILD detection was significantly delayed in MTX ever-users compared to never-users (11.4 +/- 10.4 years and 4.0 +/- 7.4 years, respectively; p<0.001). Answer to the question: Our results suggest that MTX use is not associated with an increased risk of RA-ILD in patients with RA, and that ILD was detected later in MTX-treated patients.
- The opportunities and challenges of social media in interstitial lung disease: a viewpoint(2021) GREWAL, Japnam S.; KAWANO-DOURADO, Leticia; RYERSON, Christopher J.Social media is an increasingly popular source of health information, and the rarity and complexity of interstitial lung disease (ILD) may particularly draw patients with ILD to social media for information and support. The objective of this viewpoint is to provide an overview of social media, explore the benefits and limitations of ILD-related social media use, and discuss future development of healthcare information on social media. We describe the value of integrating social media into the practice of ILD health professionals, including its role in information dissemination, patient engagement, knowledge generation, and formation of health policy. We also describe major challenges to expanded social media use in ILD, including limited access for some individuals and populations, abundance of misinformation, and concerns about patient privacy. Finally, for healthcare professionals looking to join social media, we provide practical guidance and considerations to optimize the potential benefits and minimize the potential pitfalls of social media.

- Colagenose pulmão dominante em pacientes com doença pulmonar intersticial: prevalência, estabilidade funcional e manifestações extratorácicas comuns(2015) PEREIRA, Daniel Antunes Silva; DIAS, Olivia Meira; ALMEIDA, Guilherme Eler de; ARAUJO, Mariana Sponholz; KAWANO-DOURADO, Leticia Barbosa; BALDI, Bruno Guedes; KAIRALLA, Ronaldo Adib; CARVALHO, Carlos Roberto RibeiroObjective: To describe the characteristics of a cohort of patients with lung-dominant connective tissue disease (LD-CTD). Methods: This was a retrospective study of patients with interstitial lung disease (ILD), positive antinuclear antibody (ANA) results (>= 1/320), with or without specific autoantibodies, and at least one clinical feature suggestive of connective tissue disease (CO). Results: Of the 1,998 patients screened, 52 initially met the criteria for a diagnosis of LD-CTD: 37% were male; the mean age at diagnosis was 56 years; and the median follow-up period was 48 months. During follow-up, 8 patients met the criteria for a definitive diagnosis of a CTD. The remaining 44 patients comprised the LD-CTD group, in which the most prevalent extrathoracic features were arthralgia, gastroesophageal reflux disease, and Raynaud's phenomenon. The most prevalent autoantibodies in this group were ANA (89%) and anti-SSA (anti-Ro, 27%). The mean baseline and final FVC was 69.5% and 74.0% of the predicted values, respectively (p > 0.05). Nonspecific interstitial pneumonia and usual interstitial pneumonia patterns were found in 45% and 9% of HRCT scans, respectively; 36% of the scans were unclassifiable. A similar prevalence was noted in histological samples. Diffuse esophageal dilatation was identified in 52% of HRCT scans. Nailfold capillaroscopy was performed in 22 patients; 17 showed a scleroderma pattern. Conclusions: In our LD-CTD group, there was predominance of females and the patients showed mild spirometric abnormalities at diagnosis, with differing underlying ILD patterns that were mostly unclassifiable on HRCT and by histology. We found functional stability on follow-up. Esophageal dilatation on HRCT and scleroderma pattern on nailfold capillaroscopy were frequent findings and might come to serve as diagnostic criteria.
