Popis: Background Short disease duration and low baseline modified Rodnan skin score (mRSS) have been identified as independent predictors of progressive skin fibrosis in patients with diffuse cutaneous systemic sclerosis (dcSSc) using the EUSTAR database. 1 However, whether worsening of skin fibrosis is an appropriate surrogate marker for new-onset or deterioration of visceral organ disease and overall survival in dcSSc has been questioned. Objectives To determine whether progressive skin fibrosis is associated with visceral organ progression and mortality in dcSSc patients during follow-up. Methods We performed a survival analysis of the EUSTAR database including patients with dcSSc, fulfilling the ACR 1980 criteria, with baseline mRSS ≥7 in 2009 or later, valid mRSS at 12±3 months after baseline and ≥1 available annual follow-up visit. Progressive skin fibrosis was defined as an increase in mRSS >5 units and ≥25% from baseline to 12±3 months later. Disease outcome was defined as occurrence of one of the following new events during follow-up based on expert group consensus: relative decrease in forced vital capacity (FVC) ≥10%; left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) 10% for patients with baseline LVEF Results Among 1021 eligible dcSSc patients, 78 (7.6%) had progressive skin fibrosis within 1 year (defined as progressors). The median follow-up period was 3.4 years. Survival analyses indicated that skin progressors had a significantly higher probability of FVC decline ≥10% (53.6% vs 34.4%; p Conclusions In patients with dcSSc, progressive skin fibrosis within 1 year is associated with a decline in lung function and worse survival over follow-up. This evidence-based finding is helpful for cohort enrichment in clinical trials for both skin and lung fibrosis, and for risk stratification in clinical practice.
