Popis: BackgroundMixed connective tissue disease (MCTD) is a rare autoimmune condition characterized by Raynaud’s phenomenon, positivity of autoantibodies targeting the U1 small nuclear ribonucleoprotein particle (U1RNP), and various clinical features of other connective tissue diseases (1-2). Interstitial lung disease (ILD) is an established complication of the disease that is suspected to affect morbidity and mortality (3). However, little is known about MCTD-associated ILD (MTCD-ILD) phenotype including first presentation, outcomes and predictive factors for progression.ObjectivesTo compare two distinct populations of MCTD patients with and without associated ILD and to identify predictive factors for lung progression and severity.MethodsInternational multicenter retrospective study (12 tertiary hospitals). To be included, patients were required to fulfill at least one MCTD international classification criteria (4). ILD was defined by the presence of typical chest high-resolution computed tomography (HRCT) abnormalities. Patients were divided into two groups: with or without ILD, at a ratio of 1:1 and matching on disease duration (+/- 2 years).Results300 patients were included. Mean age at MCTD diagnosis was 39.7±15.4 years and 191 (63.7%) were women.At baseline, we identified several variables associated with the presence of ILD: older age (42.2 vs 37.5 years, p=0.01), scleroderma-like phenotype (38.7 vs 27.3%, p=0.03), upper gastro-intestinal (GI) symptoms (54.7 vs 30.7%, p5mg/L (54.7 vs 28.7%, p5mg/L (OR 8.77, 95% CI 2.94 to 26.22) remained significantly associated with the presence of ILD by multivariate analysis.Patients with MTCD-ILD were more likely to be treated with synthetic immunosuppressant agents (68.7 vs 49.3%, pMean follow-up was 7.8±5.5 years. In longitudinal analyses, mortality was higher in the MTCD-ILD group (8 vs 0 deaths, p10% in 33 (55%) patients. With regards to the risk of progression, we identified that history of digital ulcers (DU) was a risk factor for FVC decline >10% (OR 6.75, 95% CI 1.7-26.4, p=0.006).ConclusionIn this large international cohort of patients with MTCD, we identified several factors associated with ILD development. Our findings highlight a high risk of mortality in MCTD-ILD patients and that digital ulceration seems to be at risk of more progressive ILD.References[1]Sharp GC, Irvin WS, Tan EM, Gould RG, Holman HR.
