conferenceObject Patient global assessment and inflammatory markers in patients with idiopathic inflammatory myopathies - a longitudinal study(2023) LODIN, K.; ESPINOSA-ORTEGAL, F.; DASTMALCHIL, M.; VENCOVSKY, J.; ANDERSSON, H.; CHINOY, H.; LILLEKER, J.; KROGH, N. Steen; SHINJO, S. Katsuyuki; MAURER, B.; GRIGER, Z.; TAVOR, Y.; CERIBELLI, A.; TORRES-RUIZ, J.; MERCADO, M. Vazquez-Del; LEONARD, D.; ERLER, A. A.; ALEXANDERSON, H.; LUNDBERG, I.- Exercise training attenuates skeletal muscle fat infiltration and improves insulin pathway of patients with immune-mediated necrotizing myopathies and dermatomyositis(2023) OLIVEIRA, Diego Sales de; BORGES, Isabela Bruna Pires; MARIE, Suely Kazue Nagahashi; LERARIO, Antonio Marcondes; OBA-SHINJO, Sueli Mieko; SHINJO, Samuel KatsuyukiObjectives: This study aims to evaluate the effects of exercise training on intramuscular lipid content and genes related to insulin pathway in patients with systemic autoimmune myopathies (SAMs). Patients and methods: Between January 2016 and May 2019, a total of seven patients with dermatomyositis (DM; 3 males, 4 females; mean age: 49.8 & PLUSMN;2.3 years; range, 43 to 54 years), six with immune mediated necrotizing myopathy (IMNM; 3 males, 3 females; mean age: 58.5 & PLUSMN;10.6 years; range, 46 to 74 years), and 10 control individuals (CTRL group; 4 males, 6 females; mean age: 48.7 & PLUSMN;3.9 years; range, 41 to 56 years) were included. The muscle biopsy before and after the intervention was performed to evaluate the intramuscular lipid content. Patients underwent a combined exercise training program for 12 weeks. Skeletal muscle gene expression was analyzed and the DM versus CTRL group, DM pre-and post-, and IMNM pre-and post-intervention were compared. Results: The DM group had a higher intramuscular lipid content in type II muscle fibers compared to the CTRL group. After the intervention, there was a reduction of lipid content in type I and II fibers in DM and IMNM group. The CTRL group showed a significantly higher expression of genes related to insulin and lipid oxidation pathways (AMPK$2, AS160, INSR, PGC1-a, PI3K, and RAB14) compared to the DM group. After exercise training, there was an increase gene expression related to insulin pathway and lipid oxidation in DM group (AMPK$2, AS160, INSR, PGC1-a, PI3K, and RAB14) and in IMNM group (AKT2, AMPK$2, RAB10, RAB14, and PGC1-a). Conclusion: Exercise training attenuated the amount of fat in type I and II muscle fibers in patients with DM and IMNM and increased gene expression related to insulin pathways and lipid oxidation in DM and IMNM. These results suggest that exercise training can improve the quality and metabolic functions of skeletal muscle in these diseases.
- Visceral adipose tissue in granulomatosis with polyangiitis: association with disease activity parameters(2021) FURLAM, Pedro L.; PEREZ, Mariana O.; FRANCO, Andre S.; CAPARBO, Valeria F.; SHINJO, Samuel K.; PEREIRA, Rosa M. R.Objective To assess the body composition (BC) of patients with granulomatosis with polyangiitis (GPA) compared to healthy controls, emphasizing visceral adipose tissue (VAT) and associated BC parameters with disease activity, the damage index, and inflammatory parameters in patients with GPA. Methods This study was conducted in 43 patients with GPA and 43 healthy controls matched by sex, age, and body mass index (BMI). BC was analyzed using dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA). The fat mass parameters evaluated were total fat mass (FM), adiposity (%), the fat mass index (FMI: fat mass/ht(2)), and VAT (g, cm(2), cm(3)). Disease activity was assessed by the Birmingham Vasculitis Activity Score (BVAS). Damage was assessed by the Vasculitis Damage Index (VDI). C-reactive protein (CRP) and the erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR) were measured. Results Comparing patients with GPA with healthy controls, patients had a significantly greater VAT (VAT in g: 685.81 +/- 306.10 vs. 581.21 +/- 235.57, p = 0.04; VAT in cm(2): 142.23 +/- 63.48 vs. 119.84 +/- 49.54, p = 0.03; VAT in cm(3): 741.33 +/- 330.97 vs. 628.44 +/- 254.66, p = 0.04). Patients with higher VAT (>= 768 g) had an increased value of ESR (22.77 +/- 26.79 vs. 11.57 +/- 11.30 mm/1st hour, p = 0.04) and an increased value of BVAS (3.18 +/- 4.15 vs. 0.90 +/- 1.70, p = 0.01) when compared to patients with less VAT (< 768 g). Conclusion Patients with GPA have altered BC compared to healthy controls. Moreover, higher VAT was associated with disease activity and higher inflammatory markers, suggesting a relationship between GPA activity and adiposity parameters.
- Work situation, work ability and expectation of returning to work in patients with systemic autoimmune myopathies(2023) CORDEIRO, Rafael A.; FISCHER, Frida M.; SHINJO, Samuel K.Objectives To document the work situation, the work ability and the expectation of returning to work among adult patients with systemic autoimmune myopathies (SAMs), and to identify the factors associated with each of these outcomes. Methods Cross-sectional study. The work situation (performing paid work vs out of work) was ascertained via a structured questionnaire. For those who were working, we applied the Work Ability Index (WAI; scale 7-49); and for those who were out of work, we applied the Return-to-Work Self-Efficacy questionnaire (RTW-SE; scale 11-66). Results Of the 75 patients with SAMs included, 33 (44%) were doing paid work and 42 (56%) were out of work. The work situation was independently associated with physical function, assessed by the Health Assessment Questionnaire-Disability Index (HAQ-DI). A 1-point increase in the HAQ-DI (scale 0-3) decreased the chance of doing paid work by 66% (95% CI: 0.16, 0.74; P = 0.007). Patients performing paid work had a mean WAI of 33.5 (6.9). The following variables were associated with a decrease in the WAI score in the regression model: female sex (-5.04), diabetes (-5.94), fibromyalgia (-6.40), fatigue (-4.51) and severe anxiety (-4.59). Among those out of work, the mean RTW-SE was 42.8 (12.4). Cutaneous manifestations and >12 years of education were associated with an average increase of 10.57 and 10.9 points, respectively, in the RTW-SE. A 1-point increase in the HAQ-DI decreased the RTW-SE by 4.69 points. Conclusion Our findings highlight the poor work participation in a well-characterized sample of working-age patients with SAMs. Strategies to improve work-related outcomes in these patients are urgently needed.
- Diagnosis and treatment of interstitial lung disease related to systemic autoimmune myopathies: a narrative review(2023) SOUZA, F. H. C. de; ARAUJO, D. B. de; HOFF, L. S.; BALDI, B. G.; FARIA, M. S. M. S.; ROCHA JUNIOR, L. F. da; SILVA, L. R. S. Da; PINTO, Behrens; BEZERRA, M. C.; MIOSSI, R.; CORDEIRO, R. A.; SHINJO, S. K.Systemic autoimmune myopathies (SAMs) are rare diseases that lead to muscle inflammation and may be associated with a variety of systemic manifestations. Although there is great heterogeneity in the spectrum of extra-muscular involvement in SAMs, interstitial lung disease (ILD) is the most frequent lung manifestation. SAM-related ILD (SAM-ILD) presents significant variations according to geographic location and temporal trends and is associated with increased morbidity and mortality. Several myositis autoantibodies have been discovered over the last decades, including antibodies targeting aminoacyl-tRNA synthetase enzymes, which are associated with a variable risk of developing ILD and a myriad of other clinical features. In this review, the most relevant topics regarding clinical manifestations, risk factors, diagnostic tests, autoantibodies, treatment, and prognosis of SAM-ILD are highlighted. We searched PubMed for relevant articles published in English, Portuguese, or Spanish from January 2002 to September 2022. The most common SAM-ILD patterns are nonspecific interstitial pneumonia and organizing pneumonia. The combination of clinical, functional, laboratory, and tomographic features is usually sufficient for diagnostic confirmation, without the need for additional invasive methods. Glucocorticoids remain the first-line treatment for SAM-ILD, although other traditional immunosuppressants, such as azathioprine, mycophenolate, and cyclophosphamide have demonstrated some efficacy and, therefore, have an important role as steroid-sparing agents.
conferenceObject Immunogenicity and Safety of an Inactivated Virus Vaccine Against SARS-CoV-2 in Patients with Autoimmune Rheumatic Diseases(2021) MEDEIROS-RIBEIRO, Ana; AIKAWA, Nadia; SAAD, Carla Goncalves Schahin; YUKI, Emily Figueiredo Vieira Neves; PEDROSA, Tatiana do Nascimento; FUSCO, Solange; ROJO, Priscila; PEREIRA, Rosa; SHINJO, Samuel; ANDRADE, Danieli; SAMPAIO-BARROS, Percival; RIBEIRO, Carolina; DEVEZA, Giordano; MARTINS, Victor Adriano de Oliveira; SILVA, Clovis Artur; LOPES, Marta; DUARTE, Alberto; ANTONANGELO, Leila; SABINO, Ester; KALLAS, Esper; PASOTO, Sandra Gofinet; BONFA, EloisabookPart Doenças inflamatórias musculares(2014) SOUZA, Fernando Henrique Carlos de; SHINJO, Samuel Katsuyuki- Exercise as an Adjuvant Treatment in Persistent Active Polymyositis(2014) MATTAR, Melina Andrade; GUALANO, Bruno; ROSCHEL, Hamilton; PERANDINI, Luiz Augusto; DASSOUKI, Thalita; LIMA, Fernanda Rodrigues; SHINJO, Samuel Katsuyuki; PINTO, Ana Lucia de SaObjectives: A growing number of studies have suggested that exercise may promote therapeutic effects in patients with idiopathic inflammatory myopathy. This prospective case series study aimed to report on the effects of exercise in patients with persistent active myositis. Methods: Three patients with persistent active polymyositis were submitted to a 12-week supervised exercise program comprising both aerobic and strength exercises. Results: After the intervention, the patients presented improvements in selected parameters of muscle function and aerobic conditioning. In addition, an overall improvement was detected in the quality of life, as measured by both the 36-item Short-Form Health Survey and the Health Assessment Questionnaire questionnaires. Importantly, exercise did not increase serum levels of creatine kinase and aldolase. Conclusions: The findings herein suggest that a combined aerobic and strength training program may be tolerable and potentially effective in improving muscle function, aerobic conditioning, and quality of life in patients with persistent active polymyositis.
- Cutaneous vasculitis in systemic lupus erythematosus: association with anti-ribosomal P protein antibody and Raynaud phenomenon(2011) SHINJO, Samuel Katsuyuki; BONFA, EloisaNinety-one consecutive systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) patients (American College of Rheumatology criteria) with a history of cutaneous vasculitis were compared to 163 SLE controls without this clinical manifestation from July to December 2007 in order to determine the possible clinical and serological association of this manifestation. Data were obtained in an ongoing electronic database protocol and autoantibodies to anti-double-stranded DNA, anti-Sm, anti-RNP, anti-Ro/SS-A, anti-La/SS-B, and anticardiolipin and ribosomal P protein antibody (anti-P) were detected by standard techniques. Exclusion criteria were the presence of anti-phospholipid syndrome or antibodies, Sjogren syndrome, and a history of thrombosis. The mean age (38.5 +/- 11.5 vs. 37.8 +/- 11.6 years, p = 0.635), disease duration (12.5 +/- 7.8 vs. 11.8 +/- 7.9 years, p = 0.501), and frequency of white race (71.4% vs. 70.5%, p = 0.872) and female sex (96.8% vs. 93.7%, p = 0.272) were comparable in both groups. The vasculitis group had a higher frequency of malar rash (97.9% vs. 87.4%, p = 0.004), photosensitivity (91.4% vs. 81.6%, p = 0.030), and Raynaud phenomenon (RP; 27.7% vs. 7.5%, p < 0.001), whereas all other clinical manifestation including renal and central nervous system involvements were similar to the control group. Laboratorial data revealed that only anti-P (35.1% vs. 12.1%, p < 0.001) was more frequent in patients with vasculitis. In a multivariate logistic regression model, cutaneous vasculitis was associated to the presence of RP (OR = 3.70; 95% confidence interval [CI] = 1.73-8.00) and anti-P (OR = 3.42; 95% CI = 1.76-6.66). In summary, SLE cutaneous vasculitis characterizes a subgroup of patients with more RP and anti-P antibodies but not accompanied by a higher frequency of renal and central nervous system involvements.
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.
