RESUMEN

The disease burden, risk factors and clinical sequelae of CMV reactivation in patients with rheumatologic conditions is poorly understood. We have described a cohort with underlying rheumatic disease and CMV, and compared a subgroup with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) to controls to identify potential risk factors for CMV reactivation. Adults with rheumatic disease and CMV infection from 2000-2015 were identified. SLE cases were matched 3:1 with controls based on age, sex and year of admission, and compared. Fourteen patients were included (6 SLE, 4 rheumatoid arthritis, 2 sarcoidosis, 1 psoriatic arthritis, 1 microscopic polyangiitis). Seven had viremia alone, the remainder tissue-invasive disease. Thirteen received glucocorticoids prior to CMV reactivation. Fever was the most common symptom, and coinfections were seen in eight including four with bacteremia. Thirteen received antiviral therapy (median 33 days), four died during hospitalization. Six patients with underlying SLE and CMV reactivation were compared to 18 SLE controls. Cases received more glucocorticoids prior to admission (median 36.5 vs. 2.5 mg/day, p = 0.006), had longer hospitalizations (median 47 vs. 7 days, p = 0.006) and more coinfections (67% vs. 17%, p = 0.04). There were no significant differences in symptoms at presentation. CMV reactivation occurs in patients with rheumatologic disease, can result in severe clinical sequelae, and is difficult to distinguish from a flare of the underlying disease. Patients with CMV received higher doses of glucocorticoids and developed more co-infections. CMV should be considered during the evaluation of a febrile illness in this complex patient population.
