    (2023) AIKAWA, Nadia Emi; BORBA, Eduardo Ferreira; BALBI, Verena Andrade; SALLUM, Adriana Maluf Elias; BUSCATTI, Izabel Mantovani; CAMPOS, Lucia Maria Arruda; KOZU, Katia Tomie; GARCIA, Cristiana Couto; CAPAO, Artur Silva Vidal; PROENCA, Adriana Coracini Tonacio de; LEON, Elaine Pires; DUARTE, Alberto Jose da Silva; LOPES, Marta Heloisa; SILVA, Clovis Artur; BONFA, Eloisa
    Introduction Seasonal influenza A (H3N2) virus is an important cause of morbidity and mortality in the last 50 years in population that is greater than the impact of H1N1. Data assessing immunogenicity and safety of this virus component in juvenile systemic lupus erythematosus (JSLE) is lacking in the literature.Objective To evaluate short-term immunogenicity and safety of influenza A/Singapore (H3N2) vaccine in JSLE.Methods 24 consecutive JSLE patients and 29 healthy controls (HC) were vaccinated with influenza A/Singapore/INFIMH-16-0019/2016(H3N2)-like virus. Influenza A (H3N2) seroprotection (SP), seroconversion (SC), geometric mean titers (GMT), factor increase in GMT (FI-GMT) titers were assessed before and 4 weeks post-vaccination. Disease activity, therapies and adverse events (AE) were also evaluated.Results JSLE patients and controls were comparable in current age [14.5 (10.1-18.3) vs. 14 (9-18.4) years, p = 0.448] and female sex [21 (87.5%) vs. 19 (65.5%), p = 0.108]. Before vaccination, JSLE and HC had comparable SP rates [22 (91.7%) vs. 25 (86.2%), p = 0.678] and GMT titers [102.3 (95% CI 75.0-139.4) vs. 109.6 (95% CI 68.2-176.2), p = 0.231]. At D30, JSLE and HC had similar immune response, since no differences were observed in SP [24 (100%) vs. 28 (96.6%), p = 1.000)], SC [4 (16.7%) vs. 9 (31.0%), p = 0.338), GMT [162.3 (132.9-198.3) vs. 208.1 (150.5-287.8), p = 0.143] and factor increase in GMT [1.6 (1.2-2.1) vs. 1.9 (1.4-2.5), p = 0.574]. SLEDAI-2K scores [2 (0-17) vs. 2 (0-17), p = 0.765] and therapies remained stable throughout the study. Further analysis of possible factors influencing vaccine immune response among JSLE patients demonstrated similar GMT between patients with SLEDAI < 4 compared to SLEDAI >= 4 (p = 0.713), as well as between patients with and without current use of prednisone (p = 0.420), azathioprine (p = 1.0), mycophenolate mofetil (p = 0.185), and methotrexate (p = 0.095). No serious AE were reported in both groups and most of them were asymptomatic (58.3% vs. 44.8%, p = 0.958). Local and systemic AE were alike in both groups (p > 0.05).Conclusion This is the first study that identified adequate immune protection against H3N2-influenza strain with additional vaccine-induced increment of immune response and an adequate safety profile in JSLE.

    Influenza A/Singapore (H3N2) component vaccine in systemic lupus erythematosus: A distinct pattern of immunogenicity
    (2021) FORMIGA, Francisco Fellipe Claudino; SILVA, Clovis Artur; PEDROSA, Tatiana do Nascimento; AIKAWA, Nadia Emi; PASOTO, Sandra Gofinet; GARCIA, Cristiana Couto; CAPAO, Artur Silva Vidal; MARTINS, Victor Adriano de Oliveira; PROENCA, Adriana Coracini Tonacio de; FULLER, Ricardo; YUKI, Emily Figueiredo Neves; VENDRAMINI, Margarete Borges Galhardo; ROSARIO, Debora Cordeiro do; BRANDAO, Leticia Maria Kolachinski Raposo; SARTORI, Ana Marli Christovam; ANTONANGELO, Leila; BONFA, Eloisa; BORBA, Eduardo Ferreira
    Introduction Influenza A (H3N2) virus is the most important cause of seasonal influenza morbidity and mortality in the last 50 years, surpassing the impact of H1N1. Data assessing immunogenicity and safety of this virus component are lacking in systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) and restricted to small reports with other H3N2 strains. Objective This study aims to evaluate short-term immunogenicity and safety of influenza A/Singapore (H3N2) vaccine in SLE. Methods 81 consecutive SLE patients and 81 age- and sex-matched healthy controls (HC) were vaccinated with the influenza A/Singapore/INFIMH-16-0019/2016(H3N2)-like virus. Seroprotection (SP) and seroconversion (SC) rates, geometric mean titers(GMT), and factor increase in GMT(FI-GMT) and adverse events were assessed before and 4 weeks post-vaccination. Disease activity and therapies were also evaluated. Results Before immunization, SLE and HC groups had high SP rates (89% vs 77%, p = 0.061) and elevated GMT titer with higher levels in SLE (129.1(104.1-154.1) vs 54.8(45.0-64.6), p < 0.001). Frequency of two previous years' influenza vaccination was high and comparable in SLE and HC (89% vs 90%, p = 1.000). Four weeks post-vaccination, median GMT increased for both groups and remained higher in SLE compared to HC (239.9(189.5-290.4) vs 94.5(72.6-116.4), p < 0.0001) with a comparable FI-GMT (2.3(1.8-2.9) vs 1.9(1.5-2.3), p = 0.051). SC rates were low and comparable for both groups (16% vs 11%, respectively, p = 0.974). Disease activity scores remained stable throughout the study (p = 1.000) and severe adverse events were not identified. Conclusion Influenza A/Singapore (H3N2) vaccine has an adequate safety profile. The distinct immunogenicity pattern from other influenza A components characterized by a remarkably high pre- and post-vaccination SP rate and high GMT levels may be associated with previous influenza A vaccination.

    Immunogenicity and safety of primary fractional-dose yellow fever vaccine in autoimmune rheumatic diseases
    (2021) TONACIO, Adriana Coracini; PEDROSA, Tatiana do Nascimento; BORBA, Eduardo Ferreira; AIKAWA, Nadia Emi; PASOTO, Sandra Gofinet; FERREIRA FILHO, Julio Cesar Rente; BARROS, Marilia Mantovani Sampaio; LEON, Elaine Pires; LOMBARDI, Suzete Cleusa Ferreira Spina; MENDRONE JUNIOR, Alfredo; AZEVEDO, Adriana de Souza; SCHWARCZ, Waleska Dias; FULLER, Ricardo; YUKI, Emily Figueiredo Neves; LOPES, Michelle Remiao Ugolini; PEREIRA, Rosa Maria Rodrigues; BARROS, Percival Degrava Sampaio; ANDRADE, Danieli Castro Oliveira de; MEDEIROS-RIBEIRO, Ana Cristina de; MORAES, Julio Cesar Bertacini de; SHINJO, Samuel Katsuyuki; MIOSSI, Renata; DUARTE, Alberto Jose da Silva; LOPES, Marta Heloisa; KALLAS, Esper Georges; SILVA, Clovis Artur Almeida da; BONFA, Eloisa
    Background Brazil faced a yellow fever(YF) outbreak in 2016-2018 and vaccination was considered for autoimmune rheumatic disease patients(ARD) with low immunosuppression due to YF high mortality. Objective This study aimed to evaluate, prospectively for the first time, the short-term immunogenicity of the fractional YF vaccine(YFV) immunization in ARD patients with low immunossupression. Methods and Results A total of 318 participants(159 ARD and 159 age- and sex-matched healthy controls) were vaccinated with the fractional-dose(one fifth) of 17DD-YFV. All subjects were evaluated at entry(D0), D5, D10, and D30 post-vaccination for clinical/laboratory and disease activity parameters for ARD patients. Post-vaccination seroconversion rate(83.7%vs.96.6%, p = 0.0006) and geometric mean titers(GMT) of neutralizing antibodies[1143.7 (95%CI 1012.3-1292.2) vs.731 (95%CI 593.6-900.2), p< 0.001] were significantly lower in ARD compared to controls. A lower positivity rate of viremia was also identified for ARD patients compared to controls at D5 (53%vs.70%, p = 0.005) and the levels persisted in D10 for patients and reduced for controls(51%vs.19%, p = 0.0001). The viremia was the only variable associated with seroconvertion. No serious adverse events were reported. ARD disease activity parameters remained stable at D30(p>0.05). Conclusion Fractional-dose 17DD-YF vaccine in ARD patients resulted in a high rate of seroconversion rate(> 80%) but lower than controls, with a longer but less intense viremia. This vaccine was immunogenic, safe and did not induce flares in ARD under low immunosuppression and may be indicated in YF outbreak situations and for patients who live or travel to endemic areas.

    Ovarian reserve in adult patients with childhood-onset lupus: a possible deleterious effect of methotrexate?
    (2014) ARAUJO, D. B. de; YAMAKAMI, L. Y. S.; AIKAWA, N. E.; BONFA, E.; VIANA, V. S. T.; PASOTO, S. G.; PEREIRA, R. M. R.; SERAFIN, P. C.; BORBA, E. F.; SILVA, C. A.
    Objectives: To assess ovarian reserve markers and anti-corpus luteum antibodies (anti-CoL) in adult patients with childhood-onset systemic lupus erythematosus (c-SLE). Method: Fifty-seven adult c-SLE female patients and 21 healthy controls were evaluated for anti-CoL. Ovarian reserve was assessed by: follicle stimulating hormone (FSH), luteinizing hormone (LH), oestradiol, anti-Mullerian hormone (AMH), and antral follicle count (AFC). Demographic data, menstrual abnormalities, disease activity, damage, and treatment were also analysed. Results: The median current age was similar in adult c-SLE patients and controls (27.7 vs. 27.7 years, p = 0.414). The medians of AMH (1.1 vs. 1.5 ng/mL, p = 0.037) and AFC (6 vs. 16, p < 0.001) were significantly reduced in SLE patients compared to controls without significant menstrual abnormalities. Anti-CoL were solely observed in c-SLE patients (16% vs. 0%, p = 0.103) and were not associated with demographic data, ovarian reserve parameters, disease activity/damage, and treatment. Further evaluation of c-SLE patients treated with cyclophosphamide revealed a higher median of FSH levels compared to c-SLE patients not treated with cyclophosphamide and controls (8.8 vs. 5.7 vs. 5.6 IU/L, p = 0.032) and lower median AMH (0.4 vs. 1.5 vs. 1.5 ng/mL, p = 0.004) and AFC (4.0 vs. 6.5 vs. 16 IU/L, p = 0.001) levels. Nineteen patients treated exclusively with methotrexate demonstrated a negative correlation between the cumulative dose and AMH levels (p = 0.027, r = -0.507). Conclusions: The present study demonstrated for the first time that a high cumulative methotrexate dose is a possible cause of subclinical ovarian dysfunction in adult c-SLE patients. Further studies are required to confirm this deleterious effect in other rheumatic diseases, particularly juvenile idiopathic arthritis and idiopathic inflammatory myopathy.

    Immunogenicity and safety of the 2009 non-adjuvanted influenza A/H1N1 vaccine in a large cohort of autoimmune rheumatic diseases
    (2011) SAAD, Carla G. S.; BORBA, Eduardo F.; AIKAWA, Nadia E.; SILVA, Clovis A.; PEREIRA, Rosa M. R.; CALICH, Ana Luisa; MORAES, Julio C. B.; RIBEIRO, Ana C. M.; VIANA, Vilma S. T.; PASOTO, Sandra G.; CARVALHO, Jozelio F.; FRANCA, Ivan L. A.; GUEDES, Lissiane K. N.; SHINJO, Samuel K.; SAMPAIO-BARROS, Percival D.; CALEIRO, Maria T.; GONCALVES, Celio R.; FULLER, Ricardo; LEVY-NETO, Mauricio; TIMENETSKY, Maria do Carmo S.; PRECIOSO, Alexander R.; BONFA, Eloisa
    Background Despite the WHO recommendation that the 2010-2011 trivalent seasonal flu vaccine must contain A/California/7/2009/H1N1-like virus there is no consistent data regarding its immunogenicity and safety in a large autoimmune rheumatic disease (ARD) population. Methods 1668 ARD patients (systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), rheumatoid arthritis (RA), ankylosing spondylitis (AS), systemic sclerosis, psoriatic arthritis (PsA), Behcet's disease (BD), mixed connective tissue disease, primary antiphospholipid syndrome (PAPS), dermatomyositis (DM), primary Sjogren's syndrome, Takayasu's arteritis, polymyositis and Granulomatosis with polyangiitis (Wegener's) (GPA)) and 234 healthy controls were vaccinated with a non-adjuvanted influenza A/California/7/2009(H1N1) virus-like strain flu. Subjects were evaluated before vaccination and 21 days post-vaccination. The percentage of seroprotection, seroconversion and the factor increase in geometric mean titre (GMT) were calculated. Results After immunisation, seroprotection rates (68.5% vs 82.9% p < 0.0001), seroconversion rates (63.4% vs 76.9%, p < 0.001) and the factor increase in GMT (8.9 vs 13.2 p < 0.0001) were significantly lower in ARD than controls. Analysis of specific diseases revealed that seroprotection significantly reduced in SLE (p < 0.0001), RA (p < 0.0001), PsA (p=0.0006), AS (p=0.04), BD (p=0.04) and DM (p=0.04) patients than controls. The seroconversion rates in SLE (p < 0.0001), RA (p < 0.0001) and PsA (p=0.0006) patients and the increase in GMTs in SLE (p < 0.0001), RA (p < 0.0001) and PsA (p < 0.0001) patients were also reduced compared with controls. Moderate and severe side effects were not reported. Conclusions The novel recognition of a diverse vaccine immunogenicity profile in distinct ARDs supports the notion that a booster dose may be recommended for diseases with suboptimal immune responses. This large study also settles the issue of vaccine safety. (ClinicalTrials.gov #NCT01151644)

    2019-EULAR/ACR classification criteria domains at diagnosis: predictive factors of long-term damage in systemic lupus erythematosus
    (2022) INSFRAN, Carlos E.; AIKAWA, Nadia E.; PASOTO, Sandra G.; FILHO, Dilson M. N.; FORMIGA, Francisco F. C.; PITTA, Ana C.; BORBA, Eduardo F.; RIBEIRO, Carolina T.; SILVA, Clovis A.; BONFA, Eloisa
    The objective of this study is to assess the role of the 2019-European League Against Rheumatism/American College of Rheumatology (2019-EULAR/ACR) classification criteria at diagnosis and its domains in predicting long-term damage in systemic lupus erythematosus(SLE). We performed a retrospective analysis using an electronic chart database utilized in routine clinical care of SLE patients and established in 2000 in a tertiary hospital. Two hundred and nine consecutive SLE patients with disease onset >= 18 years old and long disease duration were included. Cumulative damage at the last visit was scored using the SLICC/ACR-Damage Index (SDI). The median age at SLE diagnosis was 28 years (18-63), disease duration was 14 years (8-25), and 88% were females. Damage (SDI >= 1) was observed in 116/209 (55%). Patients with (SDI >= 1, n=116) and without damage (SDI=0, n=93) had similar median disease duration [14 (8-25) vs. 12 (8-25) years, p=0.090[ and age at diagnosis [23 (18-55) vs. 23 (18-56) years, p=0.998[. No correlation was observed between total 2019-EULAR/ACR score at diagnosis and SDI at last visit (r=0.007, p=0.913). Presence of renal domain at diagnosis was associated with renal damage at last visit (OR=3.6, 95%CI 1.2-10.4, p=0.017) and antiphospholipid antibodies domain predicted neuropsychiatric damage (OR=3.0, 95%CI 1.2-7.6, p=0.015). A ROC analysis identified that a cut-off >24 in 2019-EULAR/ACR score could predict a trend for renal damage (p=0.077) with a lower renal survival (Kaplan-Meier curve) for patients above this limit (p=0.029). A multivariate logistic regression analysis revealed that 2019-EULAR/ACR score >24 at diagnosis (OR 4.583, 95%CI 1.052-19.962, p=0.043) was independently associated with renal damage. Specific domains in the 2019-EULAR/ACR criteria at diagnosis were associated with long-term organspecific damage, particularly renal and neuropsychiatric harm. A 2019-EULAR/ACR score >24 predicted worse renal survival.

    Bone erosions associated with systemic bone loss on HR-pQCT in women with longstanding polyarticular juvenile idiopathic arthritis
    (2023) RIBEIRO, Surian Clarisse C. R.; SALES, Lucas P.; FERNANDES, Alan L.; PEREZ, Mariana O.; TAKAYAMA, Liliam; CAPARBO, Valeria F.; ASSAD, Ana Paula L.; AIWAKA, Nadia E.; GOLDENSTEIN-SCHAINBERG, Claudia; BORBA, Eduardo F.; DOMICIANO, Diogo S.; FIGUEIREDO, Camille P.; PEREIRA, Rosa M. R.
    Objectives: To analyze longstanding polyarticular juvenile idiopathic arthritis (pJIA) for possible associations between localized bone damage (erosions), and systemic bone loss. Besides, to compare the systemic bone mass of pJIA with healthy controls. Methods: Thirty-four pJIA women and 99 healthy controls (HC) were included. Radius and tibia of all subjects were scanned by HR-pQCT. Volumetric bone mineral density (vBMD), bone microarchitecture, and -finite element parameters were analyzed. Patients underwent HR-pQCT of 2nd and 3rd metacarpophalangeal (MCP) and proximal interphalangeal (PIP) joints of the dominant hand, for bone erosions quantification. Results: The mean age of patients was 31.5 +/- 7.4yrs with a mean disease duration of 21.7 +/- 9.2yrs. Bone erosions were detectable in 79% of patients. The number of bone erosions was positively correlated with cortical porosity (Ct.Po) at tibia (r = 0.575, p = 0.001), and radius (r = 0.423, p = 0.018); and negatively correlated with cortical vBMD at tibia (r=-0.420, p = 0.015). In a logistic regression analysis, adjusted for anti-CCP, the presence of bone erosions was independently associated with Ct.Po at radius (p = 0.018) and cortical vBMD at tibia (p = 0.020). Moreover, cortical and trabecular vBMD, trabecular number, and mu-finite element parameters were decreased in patients compared to HC (p < 0.05). Conclusion: Bone erosions in longstanding pJIA women were associated with decreased cortical bone parameters, and these patients showed systemic bone impairment at peripheral sites compared with healthy controls.

    Hydroxychloroquine blood levels in stable lupus nephritis under low dose (2-3 mg/kg/day): 12-month prospective randomized controlled trial
    (2021) ZANETTI, Caio B.; PEDROSA, Tatiana; KUPA, Leonard de V. K.; AIKAWA, Nadia E.; BORBA, Eduardo F.; VENDRAMINI, Margarete B. G.; SILVA, Clovis A.; PASOTO, Sandra G.; BONFA, Eloisa
    Introduction The American Academy of Ophthalmology (2016-AAO) recommended hydroxychloroquine (HCQ) dose not to exceed 5 mg/kg/day (real body weight). Recently, it was reported that prescribed 2016-AAO dose provided adequate HCQ levels for most lupus nephritis (LN) patients, with low flare risk. However, the minimum HCQ dose required to keep adequate levels is unknown. Objectives To evaluate if a further reduction in 2016-AAO dose (2-3 mg/kg/day) would sustain 12-month HCQ levels in LN patients with stable inactive disease. Methods Seventy-three stable LN patients under prescribed full HCQ 2016-AAO dose for >= 6 months and adequate baseline HCQ levels (>= 613.5 ng/mL) were divided in two groups: reduced 2016-AAO dose (2-3 mg/kg/day), n = 32, and full 2016-AAO dose (5 mg/kg/day), n = 41. All patients were assessed at baseline, 3, 6, and 12 months. HCQ levels were measured by liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry. Flare was defined as augment >= 3 in SLE Disease Activity Index-2000 and/or change in treatment. Rigorous clinical/laboratorial surveillance was performed. Results Prospective evaluation revealed for reduced 2016-AAO dose group a decrease of HCQ levels from baseline to 3 months (1,404.9 +/- 492.0 vs. 731.6 +/- 385.0 ng/mL, p < 0.01), and sustained levels at 6 months (p = 0.273) and 12 months (p = 0.091) compared to 3 months. For the full 2016-AAO dose group, a decrease occurred only from baseline to 12 months (1343.5 +/- 521.5 vs. 991.6 +/- 576.3 ng/mL, p < 0.001). Frequencies of patients with inadequate levels at 6 months was higher in reduced 2016-AAO group than full 2016-AAO dose (59% vs. 24%, p = 0.005), as well as at 12 months (66% vs. 32%, p = 0.002). Six-month and 12-month flare frequencies were comparable for both groups (p > 0.05). Conclusions Prescribed HCQ low-dose regimen (2-3 mg/kg/day) does not sustain, for most patients, 6- and 12-month adequate HCQ levels. Full 2016-AAO dose maintained HCQ levels way above this limit.

    Short-term Accrual 2019 European League Against Rheumatism/American College of Rheumatology Domains and Systemic Lupus International Collaborating Clinics/American College of Rheumatology Damage in Lupus Patients With and Without Nephritis at Disease Onset
    (2023) MUNHOZ, Gabriela A.; AIKAWA, Nadia E.; SILVA, Clovis A.; PASOTO, Sandra G.; PEDROSA, Tatiana N.; SEGURO, Luciana P. C.; BONFA, Eloisa; BORBA, Eduardo F.
    ObjectiveTo determine in a historical inception cohort the impact of lupus nephritis at disease onset in short-term accrual 2019 European League Against Rheumatism (EULAR)/American College of Rheumatology (ACR) domains. The possible association with treatment and damage was also investigated.MethodsOne hundred thirty-three consecutive adult systemic lupus erythematosus patients according to the 2019 EULAR/ACR criteria were divided according to the presence (RENAL-lupus) or absence of renal involvement (NONRENAL-lupus) at disease onset. The 2019 EULAR/ACR score and Systemic Lupus International Collaborating Clinics/ACR (SDI) were longitudinally evaluated over 3 years.ResultsRENAL-lupus (n = 49 [36.8%]) and NONRENAL-lupus (n = 84 [63.2%]) were similar regarding age (p = 0.704), female sex (p = 0.313), and black race (p = 0.506). At study entry, RENAL-lupus had higher 2019 EULAR/ACR total domains (30 [12-42] vs. 22 [10-36], p < 0.001) and used more often glucocorticoid (p < 0.001), mycophenolate mofetil (p = 0.007), and cyclophosphamide (p = 0.001). After 3 years, a stable number of domain scores was observed for the RENAL-lupus (30 [12-42] vs. 30 [12-42], p = 0.125), whereas an increase was observed for the NONRENAL-lupus (22 [10-36] vs. 23 [10-40], p < 0.001) compared with baseline. Accordingly, RENAL-lupus patients had a lower frequency of additional domains (3/49 [6.1%] vs. 37/84 [44.0%], p < 0.0001). New kidney involvement occurred in 15 (44.1%) of 34 patients of the NONRENAL-lupus. Both groups evolved with a comparable increase in frequency of patients with damage (SDI >= 1) at the end of the study (23/49 [46.9%] vs. 34/89 [40.54%], p = 0.585) with a similar median of SDI (1 [0-4] vs. 0 [0-2], p = 0.132).ConclusionsThe distinct pattern of accrual 2019 EULAR/ACR domains in patients with and without nephritis at disease onset suggests that close surveillance for additional organ involvement, including kidney, is mandatory in NONRENAL lupus in the first 3 years of disease. The unexpected comparable early damage in both groups despite milder disease and less intense immunosuppression in NONRENAL lupus reinforces the need for new and tailored therapies for these patients.

    Juvenile dermatomyositis: is periodonta disease associated with dyslipidemia?
    (2018) KOZU, Katia T.; SILVA, Clovis A.; AIKAWA, Nadia E.; PEREIRA, Rosa M. R.; SALLUM, Adriana M.; SAVIOLI, Cynthia; BORBA, Eduardo; CAMPOS, Lucia M.
    Background: Association between periodontal disease and dyslipidemia was recently reported in healthy adults. However, a systematic evaluation of concomitant periodontal diseases and lipid profile was not carried out in juvenile dermatomyositis (JDM). A cross-section study was performed in 25 JDM patients and 25 healthy controls, assessing demographic data, periodontal evaluation, fasting lipoproteins and anti-lipoprotein lipase antibodies. Disease parameters, laboratorial tests and treatment were also evaluated in JDM patients. Results: The mean current age was similar in patients and controls (11.5 +/- 3.75 vs. 112 +/- 2.58 years,p = 0.703). Regarding lipid profile, the median triglycerides [80(31-340) vs. 61(19-182)mg/dL,p= 0.011] and VLDLD 6(6-68) vs. 13(4-36)mg/dL,p= 0.020] were significantly higher in JDM patients versus controls. Gingival vasculopathy pattern was significantly higher in the former group (60% vs. 0%,p = 0.0001), as well as the median of gingival bleeding index (GBI) [24.1(4.2-69.4) vs. 11.1(0-66.6)%,p= 0.001] and probing pocket depth (PPD) [1.7(0.6-2.4) vs.1.4(0-2.12) mm,p = 0.006]. Comparison between JDM patients with and without dyslipidemia revealed that the median of dental plaque index (PI) [100(26.7-100) vs. 59(25-100)%,p = 0.022], PPD[1.9(0.6-2.4) vs. 1.4(1.2-1.8)mm,p= 0.024] and clinical attachment level (CAL) [1.31(0.7-1.7) vs. 0.8(0.6-1.7)mm,p = 0.005] were significantly higher in patients with dyslipidemia. Further analysis between JDM patients with and without gingivitis revealed that the median of current age [12.4 (8.3-18.4) vs. 9.2 (5.5-17.5) years, p = 0.034] and disease duration [7.09 +/- 3.07 vs. 3.95 +/- 2.1 years, p = 0.008] were significantly higher in the former group. Conclusion: Our study showed that gingival inflammation seems to be related to dyslipidemia in JDM patients, suggesting underlying mechanisms for both complications.
