Abstrakt: Objective: Children with juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA) frequently exhibit symptoms months before diagnosis. The aims of this study were to assess whether baseline patient-reported outcomes (PROs) are associated with changes in JIA pharmacotherapy treatment and whether symptom duration prior to JIA diagnosis is associated with disease activity scores over time.
Methods: This is a retrospective cohort study of patients with an incident diagnosis of JIA. Patient-reported symptom duration, pain, energy, disease activity, sleep, anxiety, and depression screenings, as well as provider-reported disease activity and joint count, were collected during routine clinical care. Cox proportional hazards evaluated PROs, disease activity scores, and symptom duration with initial medication failure within 9 months of diagnosis. Multivariate mixed effects linear regression evaluated the association of symptom duration with disease activity scores.
Results: There were 58 children (66% female, 35% oligoarticular JIA) in the cohort. Nearly half of patients failed initial therapy within 9 months. Unadjusted analysis showed that higher energy (hazard ratio [HR]: 0.82; 95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.69-0.99; P = 0.04) and longer symptom duration (HR: 0.96; 95% CI: 0.93-0.99; P = 0.03) at diagnosis were protective against medication failure. Adjusted analysis showed that symptom duration prior to diagnosis was protective against medication failure (HR: 0.95; 95% CI: 0.92-0.99; P = 0.02); there was no association between medication failure and pain, psychiatric symptoms, or disease activity scores. There was a positive association with longer symptom duration and higher disease activity at 30 and 60 days, but this was not sustained.
Conclusion: Higher energy levels and longer symptom duration are protective against initial JIA treatment failures. Initial treatments informed by patient-reported data could lead to more successful outcomes by changes in treatment paradigms.
