RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Cardiovascular (CVS) diseases are the leading cause of death worldwide and patients with rheumatic diseases have an increased CVS. CVS risk factors and CVS events are common in spondyloarthritis (SpA). Delineating the CVS risk in patients with SpA and identifying modifiable risk factors would be useful. METHODS: Patients with SpA and patients with non-specific back pain (NSBP) were identified in rheumatology and orthopedics clinics, respectively. Clinical information and CVS events were retrieved. Baseline characteristics and incidence rates of CVS events were compared between two groups of patients using an age- and sex-matched cohort. Propensity score adjustment and Cox regression analysis were performed to determine the CVS risk associated with SpA. RESULTS: A total of 5046 patients (SpA 2616 and NSBP 2430) were included from eight centers. Over 56,484 person-years of follow up, 160 strokes, 84 myocardial infarction (MI) and 262 major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) were identified. Hypercholesterolemia was more prevalent in SpA (SpA 34.2%, NSBP 28.7%, p < 0.01). Crude incidence rates of MACE and stroke were higher in SpA patients. SpA was associated with a higher risk of MACE [hazard ratio (HR) 1.70; 95% confidence interval (CI) 1.29-2.26; p < 0.01] and cerebrovascular events (HR 1.50; 95% CI 1.08-2.07; p = 0.02). SpA patients with anti-TNF use had a reduced risk of MACE (HR 0.37, 95%CI 0.17-0.80, p = 0.01) and cerebrovascular events (HR 0.21, 95%CI 0.06-0.78, p = 0.02) compared with SpA patients without anti-TNF use. CONCLUSION: SpA is an independent CVS risk factor. Anti-tumor necrosis factor (TNF) drugs were associated with a reduced CVS risk in these patients.
