RESUMO

We conducted a national in-depth analysis including pharmacovigilance reports and clinical study to assess the reporting rate (RR) and to determine the clinical profile of polymyalgia rheumatica (PMR) and giant cell arteritis (GCA) in COVID-19-vaccinated individuals. First, based on the French pharmacovigilance database, we estimated the RR of PMR and GCA cases in individuals aged over 50 who developed their initial symptoms within one month of receiving the BNT162b2 mRNA, mRNA-1273, ChAdOx1 nCoV-19, and Ad26.COV2.S vaccines. We then conducted a nationwide survey to gather clinical profiles, therapeutic management, and follow-up data from individuals registered in the pharmacovigilance study. A total of 70 854 684 COVID-19 vaccine doses were administered to 25 260 485 adults, among which, 179 cases of PMR (RR 7. 1 cases/1 000 000 persons) and 54 cases of GCA (RR 2. 1 cases/1 000 000 persons) have been reported. The nationwide survey allowed the characterization of 60 PMR and 35 GCA cases. Median time to the onset of first symptoms was 10 (range 2-30) and 7 (range 2-25) days for PMR and GCA, respectively. Phenotype, GCA-related ischemic complications and -large vessel vasculitis as well as therapeutic management and follow-up seemed similar according to the number of vaccine shots received and when compared to the literature data of unvaccinated population. Although rare, the short time between immunization and the onset of first symptoms of PMR and GCA suggests a temporal association. Physician should be aware of this potential vaccine-related phenomenon.

RESUMO

OBJECTIVE: Septic arthritis of the Facet Joints (SAFJ) is a rare condition. Little data has been published on the subject. We aimed to describe the clinical, biological and imagery presentations, as well as the course of this rare infection. METHODS: We included patients hospitalized between January 1st, 2016 and December 31th, 2019, in the Departments of Infectious Diseases or Rheumatology in 5 French centres in the CRIOGO network. We defined septic arthritis according to Newman's criteria and facet joint arthritis using imagery. RESULTS: Sixty-five patients were included, predominantly males (64.6%), with a mean age of 68.1 years. The mean time to diagnosis was 25.0 days. The principal symptoms at diagnosis were acute back pain (95.2%) and fever (76.9%). Neurological symptoms were present for 60.7% of the patients, including 16.4% motor deficit or cauda equina syndrome. SAFJ was located on the lumbosacral spine (73.4%) and was rarely multifocal (4.7%). Bacteriological identification was performed by blood cultures in 84.4% of the cases, and the pathogen was mainly Staphylococcus aureus (49.2%). Infective endocarditis was present for 26.9% of patients assessed by echocardiography. On MRI, soft tissue abscess or inflammation, epiduritis and epidural abscess were present in 87.1%, 66.7% and 33.9% of cases, and the pathogen was significantly more frequently Staphylococcus aureus. Mortality reached 9.2%, 18.5% and 23% at one, two, and three years respectively. CONCLUSION: SAFJ is a rare but severe disease. Microbiological diagnosis is primarily made on blood cultures, and S. Aureus was the main pathogen. Our results highlight the fact that SAFJ is associated with high morbidity and mortality, and with infective endocarditis.

RESUMO

We have read with great interest the results from Marketos et al. regarding the positivity of specific systemic sclerosis auto-antibodies in patients with sicca symptoms. Based on complementary data from the literature, we rather believe scleroderma-associated antibodies should be considered either as a yellow flag for an association between scleroderma and Sjogren, or a potential undiagnosed scleroderma, rather than an isolated Sjogren's disease.

RESUMO

Calcium pyrophosphate deposition (CPPD) can be induced by a persistent hypomagnesemia. Tacrolimus is an immunosuppressive treatment especially used in organ transplant, potentially inducer of hypomagnesemia by renal loss. A 53-year-old man, liver transplant 10 months earlier, developed an acute peripheral oligoarthritis of wrist, hip and elbow with fever, associated with acute low back pain. Synovial fluid was sterile, and revealed calcium pyrophosphate crystals. Spinal imaging showed inflammatory changes. Magnesium blood level was low at 0.51 mmol/l, with high fractional excretion in favor of renal loss. Tacrolimus was changed for everolimus, proton pump inhibitor was stopped, and magnesium oral supplementation was started. After 8 months follow-up and slow prednisone tapering, he did not relapse pain. Persistent hypomagnesemia is a rare secondary cause of CPPD. In this entity, drug liability should be investigated such as tacrolimus in organ transplant patient.

RESUMO

Sacroiliitis and spondyloarthritis (SpA) have been associated to sarcoidosis. Sarcoidosis bone involvement of the sacral or iliac bones has been reported to mimic SpA. We aimed to evaluate the prevalence of structural sacroiliitis and structural changes of the sacroiliac joints (SIJ) in patients with sarcoidosis by abdominal-pelvic computed tomography (AP-CT). In this monocentric retrospective study, three blinded readers evaluated AP-CT that had already been performed on patients with sarcoidosis and classified them as normal, degenerative, or inflammatory. A consensus was reached for the divergent cases. Erosion, ankylosis, and sclerosis, classically associated with sacroiliitis, were noted. SpA was defined according to the ASAS 2009 classification criteria. We identified 217 patients with proven sarcoidosis who underwent AP-CT. Only three patients had sacroiliitis by CT and four had SpA, representing 1.38% and 1.85% of the patients, respectively. Degenerative SIJs represented 28.1% of patients and were significantly associated with age, at least one pregnancy, rural lifestyle, ankylosis, diffuse idiopathic skeletal hyperostosis, sclerosis, and the presence of osteophytes. Four patients had axial bone sarcoidosis. Sacroiliitis, SpA, and degenerative changes of the SIJ have been highlighted by AP-CT in patients with sarcoidosis. Osteoarthritis of the SIJ in sarcoidosis was associated with age, pregnancy, and rural lifestyle. Further studies are needed to assess the link between SpA and sarcoidosis.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Sarcoidosis and spondyloarthritis (SpA) have been regularly associated. Bone iliac granulomas have also been described. We propose herein a systematic review of rheumatologic axial manifestations of sarcoidosis. METHODS: PubMed and the Cochrane Library were used to conduct this systematic literature review. Case reports and cross-sectional studies were reviewed according to Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guidelines. RESULTS: A total of 41 articles were eligible. Three cross-sectional studies on the association between SpA and sarcoidosis showed a prevalence of sacroiliitis and SpA ranging from 12.9 to 44.8% and 12.9 to 48.3% in inflammatory back pain (IBP) subgroups, respectively. However, the IBP definitions and sacroiliac joint (SIJ) imaging modalities (X-rays or magnetic resonance imaging) were heterogeneous, and X-ray was mainly used for sacroiliitis diagnosis (in 78% of cases). Thirty-one case-report articles of the sarcoidosis-sacroiliitis association were identified, representing 35 patients. ASAS criteria for SpA were met in half of cases (16/32) and 46% (12/26) had HLA B27 positivity. Sarcoidosis occurred after sacroiliac symptoms in 47% of cases. In the seven case-report articles with granulomatous sacroiliac bone involvement, unilateral involvement seemed higher than in the sarcoidosis-sacroiliitis group. CONCLUSION: Literature analysis found a good evidence of the association between SpA and sarcoidosis, and special attention should be given to patients reporting IBP. Unilateral sacroiliitis may raise suspicion of granulomatous bone involvement, distinct from sacroiliitis. Imaging modalities used to study the SIJ in patients with sarcoidosis have been heterogeneous and further investigation is needed.

RESUMO

Mycobacterium bovis Bacillus Calmette-Guérin (BCG) instillations are used in bladder cancer treatment. Adverse effects can occur. Osteoarticular complications are mainly reactive arthritis, but true infections have been described, such as vertebral osteomyelitis. We made a review of M. bovis BCG vertebral osteomyelitis after instillations for bladder cancer using PubMed search. We added three new French cases. Twenty-seven cases of BCG vertebral osteomyelitis had been reported on PubMed. Of the 30 cases, all were male, averaging 73.4 ± 8.7 years old. Median time between diagnosis and first and last instillation was 22.5 and 14 months respectively. Half of vertebral osteomyelitis was thoracic and lumbar in the other half. Sensitivo-motor deficit was present at diagnosis in 42% of cases. Other infectious locations were common, mainly infectious abdominal aortic aneurysms (20%). Rifampicin, ethambutol and isoniazid were the usual therapy. Poor outcomes were reported with 50% of one or more spine surgery. M. bovis BCG vertebral osteomyelitis following bladder instillation for bladder cancer is a rare complication. However, the late onset of back pain after instillations differentiates them from reactive arthritis. Concomitant septic location such as infectious abdominal aortic aneurysms must be known.
