Abstract Introduction Chronic non-bacterial osteomyelitis (CNO) is an autoinflammatory bone-disease of unknown origin. The National Pediatric Rheumatologic Database (NPRD) collects long-term data of children and adolescents with rheumatic diseases including CNO. Objective To assess characteristics, courses, and outcomes of CNO with onset in childhood and adolescence and to identify outcome predictors. Methods From 2015 to 2021 patients with a confirmed diagnosis of CNO, who were registered in the NPRD during their first year of disease and at least one follow-up visit, were included in this analysis and observed for up to 4 years. Results Four hundred patients with recent diagnosis of CNO were enrolled in the NRPD during the study period. After 4 years, patient data documentation was sufficient to be analyzed in 81 patients. A significant decline of clinical and radiological lesions is reported: at inclusion in the registry, the mean number of clinical lesions was 2.0 and 3.0 MRI lesions per patient. A significant decrease of manifestations during 4 years of follow-up (mean clinical lesions 0.5, p = 4. Predictors associated with a severe disease course include the site of inflammation (pelvis, lower extremity, clavicle), increased erythrocyte sedimentation rate, and multifocal disease at first documentation. The previously published composite PedCNO disease activity score was analyzed revealing a PedCNO70 in 55% of the patients at 4YFU. Conclusion An improvement of physician global disease activity (PGDA), patient reported overall well-being and imaging-defined disease activity measures was documented, suggesting that inactivity of CNO disease can be reached. PedCNO score and especially PGDA, MRI-defined lesions and in a number of patients also the C-HAQ seem to be reliable parameters for describing disease activity. The identification of risk factors at the beginning of the disease might influence treatment decision in the future. |
