Abstrakt: Objective: To assess predicting factors that might influence systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) disease activity in women in an extended follow-up period of two years after giving birth with clinical assessments every three months.
Methods: The study was design as an international retrospective study, enrolling 119 women with a first birth and with a two years follow-up.
Results: Joint involvement was present in 80% of patients, acute cutaneous in 64%, haematological in 54%, renal in 41% and 75% of patients were positive for anti-dsDNA. The mean SLE disease activity index 2000 (SLEDAI-2K) at diagnosis was 13.5±6.8 and at first birth was 2.8±4.4. At follow-up, 51.3% of patients had at least one flare after a mean time after birth of 9±6.3 months (mean flare per patient 0.94±1.1). The most frequent flare manifestations were joint involvement (48%), renal (33%), cutaneous (28%) and haematologic (20%). Patients with remission of disease (SLEDAI-2K=0; no clinical or laboratory manifestations of SLE) at conception had significantly lower rates of flares (18/49-37% vs. 43/70-61%; p=0.008). Patients who experienced a flare during pregnancy (17 patients) had higher rates of flares during follow-up (76% vs. 47%; p=0.019), lower time for first flare (4.4±2.3 months vs. 10.3±6.5; p<0.001), lower rate of remission of disease at conception (12% vs. 46%; p<0.001), lower rates of SLEDAI-2K at conception (5.9±5.6 vs. 2.3±4; p<0.001) and lower rates of exclusive breastfeeding (24% vs. 57%: p=0.009). Results were confirmed after performing multivariate analysis.
Conclusion: Remission at conception can influence SLE disease positively, even at long-term. Planned pregnancy counseling is fundamental when managing SLE patients.
