Background: There is increasing research interest in the development of preventive treatment for individuals at risk of rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Previous studies have explored the perceptions of at-risk groups and patients about predictive and preventive strategies for RA, but little is known about health care professionals' (HCPs) perspectives.

Methods: One-to-one semi-structured qualitative interviews were conducted (face-to-face or by telephone) with HCPs. Audio recordings of the interviews were transcribed, and the data were analysed by thematic analysis.

Results: Nineteen HCPs (11 female) were interviewed, including ten GPs, six rheumatologists and three rheumatology nurse specialists. The thematic analysis identified four organising themes: 1) Attributes of predictive and preventive approaches; 2) Ethical and psychological concerns; 3) Implementation issues and 4) Learning from management of other conditions. Theme 1 described necessary attributes of predictive and preventive approaches, including the type and performance of predictive tools, the need for a sound evidence base and consideration of risks and benefits associated with preventive treatment. Theme 2 described the ethical and psycho-social concerns that interviewees raised, including the potential negative economic, financial and psychological effects of risk disclosure for 'at-risk' individuals, uncertainty around the development of RA and the potential for benefit associated with the treatments being considered. Theme 3 describes the implementation issues considered, including knowledge and training needs, costs and resource implications of implementing predictive and preventive approaches, the role of different types of HCPs, guidelines and tools needed, and patient characteristics relating to the appropriateness of preventive treatments. Theme 4 describes lessons that could be learned from interviewees' experiences of prediction and prevention in other disease areas, including how preventive treatment is prescribed, existing guidelines and tools for other diseases and issues relating to risk communication.

Conclusions: For successful implementation of predictive and preventative approaches in RA, HCPs need appropriate training about use and interpretation of predictive tools, communication of results to at-risk individuals, and options for intervention. Evidence of cost-efficiency, appropriate resource allocation, adaptation of official guidelines and careful consideration of the at-risk individuals' psycho-social needs are also needed.

背景:人们对开发类风湿性关节炎(RA)高危人群的预防性治疗越来越感兴趣。先前的研究探讨了高危人群和患者对RA预测和预防策略的看法,但对卫生保健专业人员的观点知之甚少。方法:对HCP进行一对一的半结构化定性访谈(面对面或电话)。对访谈录音进行了转录,并通过专题分析对数据进行了分析。结果:19名HCP(11名女性)接受了访谈,其中包括10名全科医生、6名风湿病学家和3名风湿病护理专家。主题分析确定了四个组织主题:1)预测和预防方法的属性;2) 伦理和心理问题;3) 执行问题和4)从其他条件的管理中学习。主题1描述了预测和预防方法的必要属性,包括预测工具的类型和性能、建立健全证据基础的必要性以及考虑与预防性治疗相关的风险和益处。主题2描述了受访者提出的伦理和心理社会问题,包括风险披露对“高危”个人的潜在负面经济、财务和心理影响、RA发展的不确定性以及与正在考虑的治疗相关的潜在益处。主题3描述了所考虑的实施问题,包括知识和培训需求、实施预测性和预防性方法的成本和资源影响、不同类型HCP的作用、所需的指南和工具,以及与预防性治疗适当性相关的患者特征。主题4介绍了可以从受访者在其他疾病领域的预测和预防经验中吸取的教训,包括如何制定预防性治疗,针对其他疾病的现有指南和工具,以及与风险沟通有关的问题。结论:为了在RA中成功实施预测性和预防性方法,HCP需要接受关于预测工具的使用和解释、向高危人群传达结果以及干预选择的适当培训。还需要证明成本效益、适当的资源分配、调整官方指导方针以及仔细考虑高危人群的心理社会需求。

Introduction: Clinically significant pericardial effusions and cardiac tamponade in systemic sclerosis (SSc) patients is uncommon and the factors that contribute to progression of pericardial involvement in SSc patients have not been well established.

Methods: A review of the national inpatient sample database was performed looking SSc related hospitalizations between 2002 and 2019. Data was collected on patients with pericardial effusions and cardiac tamponade and analyzed to identify and describe patient characteristics and comorbidities.

Results: Out of a total of 523,410 SSc hospitalizations, with an overall inpatient mortality rate of 4.7% (24,764 patients), pericardial effusion was identified in 3.1% of all hospitalizations (16,141 patients) out of which 0.2% (838 patients) had a diagnosis of cardiac tamponade. Patients with pericardial effusion were significantly more likely to have pulmonary circulatory disease (p = < 0.0001), congestive heart failure (p = < 0.0001) end stage renal disease (p = < 0.0001), diabetes (p = 0.015), and hypothyroidism (p = 0.025). Patients with cardiac tamponade were significantly more likely to have a history of coronary artery bypass graft surgery (p = 0.001) or atrial fibrillation (p = < 0.0001). Hospitalized patients with cardiac tamponade had a significantly increased mortality rate of 17.7% compared to 8.8% in patients with pericardial effusions without a tamponade physiology, with an odds ratio of 2.3 (1.97-2.86), p = < 0.0001.

Conclusion: Pericardial effusion and tamponade are associated with increased morbidity and mortality in SSc patients. Further studies are required to explore the role of patient comorbidities and characteristics in development into pericardial effusions or tamponade.

引言:在系统性硬化症(SSc)患者中,具有临床意义的心包积液和心脏填塞并不常见,导致SSc患者心包受累进展的因素尚未明确。方法:对2002年至2019年间与SSc相关的全国住院患者样本数据库进行审查。收集心包积液和心脏压塞患者的数据,并进行分析,以确定和描述患者特征和合并症。结果:在523410例SSc住院患者中,总住院死亡率为4.7%(24764名患者),3.1%的住院患者(16141名患者)发现心包积液,其中0.2%(838名患者)被诊断为心脏压塞。心包积液患者更容易患肺循环系统疾病(p = 结论:心包积液和填塞与SSc患者的发病率和死亡率增加有关。需要进一步的研究来探索患者合并症和特征在发展为心包积液或心包填塞中的作用。

Objectives: Rheumatic and musculoskeletal diseases (RMDs) require a tailored follow-up that can be enhanced by the implementation of innovative tools. The Digireuma study aimed to test the feasibility of a hybrid follow-up utilizing an electronic patient reported outcomes (ePROs)-based monitoring strategy in patients with RMDs.

Methods: Adult patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and spondyloarthritis (SpA) were recruited for a 6-month bicentric prospective follow-up consisting of face-to-face and digital assessments. Patients were asked to report disease-specific ePROs on a pre-established basis, and could also report flares, medication changes, and recent infections at any time. Four rheumatologists monitored these outcomes and contacted patients for interventions when deemed necessary. Results from face-to-face and digital assessments were described.

Results: Of 56 recruited patients, 47 (84%) submitted any ePROs to the digital platform. Most patients with RA were female (74%, median age of 47 years), while 48% of patients with SpA were female (median age 40.4 years). A total of 3,800 platform visits were completed, with a median of 57 and 29 visits in patients with RA and SpA, respectively. Among 52 reported alerts, 47 (90%) needed contact, of which 36 (77%) were managed remotely. Adherence rates declined throughout the study, with around half of patients dropping out during the 6 months follow-up.

Conclusion: The implementation of a hybrid follow-up in clinical practice is feasible. Digital health solutions can provide granular knowledge of disease evolution and enable more informed clinical decision making, leading to improved patient outcomes. Further research is needed to identify target patient populations and engagement strategies.

目标:类风湿和肌肉骨骼疾病(RMD)需要有针对性的随访,可以通过实施创新工具来加强随访。Digireuma研究旨在测试在RMD患者中使用基于电子患者报告结果(ePRO)的监测策略进行混合随访的可行性。方法:招募患有类风湿性关节炎(RA)和脊椎关节炎(SpA)的成年患者进行为期6个月的双中心前瞻性随访,包括面对面和数字评估。患者被要求在预先确定的基础上报告疾病特异性ePRO,还可以随时报告发作、药物变化和最近的感染。四位风湿病学家监测了这些结果,并在必要时联系患者进行干预。介绍了面对面和数字评估的结果。结果:在56名招募的患者中,47人(84%)向数字平台提交了任何ePRO。大多数RA患者为女性(74%,中位年龄47岁),而SpA患者中有48%为女性(中位年龄40.4岁)。共完成3800次平台访问,RA和SpA患者的中位访问分别为57次和29次。在52个报告的警报中,47个(90%)需要联系,其中36个(77%)是远程管理的。在整个研究过程中,依从性下降,大约一半的患者在6个月的随访中退出。结论:在临床实践中实施混合随访是可行的。数字健康解决方案可以提供疾病演变的精细知识,并实现更明智的临床决策,从而改善患者的预后。需要进一步的研究来确定目标患者群体和参与策略。

Background: Traditionally rheumatoid arthritis (RA) trials classify patients as responders and non-responders; they ignore the potential range of treatment responses. Group Based Trajectory Models (GBTMs) provide a more refined approach. They identify patient subgroups with similar outcome trajectories. We used GBTMs to classify patients into subgroups of varying responses and explore factors associated with different responses to intensive treatment in a secondary analysis of intensive treatment in the TITRATE clinical trial.

Methods: The TITRATE trial enrolled 335 patients with RA: 168 patients were randomised to receive intensive management, which comprised monthly assessments including measures of the disease activity score for 28 joints (DAS28), treatment escalation when patients were not responding sufficiently and psychosocial support; 163 of these patients completed the trial. We applied GBTMs to monthly DAS28 scores over one year to these patients who had received intensive management. The control group had standard care and were assessed every 6 months; they had too few DAS28 scores for applying GBTMs.

Results: GBTMs identified three distinct trajectories in the patients receiving intensive management: good (n = 40), moderate (n = 76) and poor (n = 47) responders. Baseline body mass index (BMI), disability, fatigue and depression levels were significantly different between trajectory groups. Few (10%) good responders were obese, compared to 38% of moderate, and 43% of poor responders (P = 0.002). Few (8%) good responders had depression, compared to 14% moderate responders, and 38% poor responders (P < 0.001). The key difference in treatments was using high-cost biologics, used in only 5% of good responders but 30% of moderate and 51% of poor responders (P < 0.001). Most good responders had endpoint remissions and low disability, pain, and fatigue scores; few poor responders achieved any favourable outcomes.

Conclusion: GBTMs identified three trajectories of disease activity progression in patients receiving intensive management for moderately active RA. Baseline variables like obesity and depression predicted different treatment responses. Few good responders needed biologic drugs; they responded to conventional DMARDs alone. GBTMs have the potential to facilitate precision medicine enabling patient-oriented treatment strategies based on key characteristics.

背景:传统的类风湿性关节炎(RA)试验将患者分为有反应者和无反应者;他们忽略了治疗反应的潜在范围。基于组的轨迹模型(GBTM)提供了一种更精细的方法。他们确定了具有相似结果轨迹的患者亚组。我们使用GBTM将患者分为不同反应的亚组,并在TITRATE临床试验中对强化治疗的二次分析中探讨与强化治疗不同反应相关的因素。方法:TITRATE试验纳入335名RA患者:168名患者随机接受强化治疗,包括每月评估,包括28个关节的疾病活动评分(DAS28)、患者反应不足时的治疗升级和心理社会支持;其中163名患者完成了试验。我们将GBTM应用于这些接受强化治疗的患者一年内的每月DAS28评分。对照组接受标准护理,每6个月进行一次评估;结果:GBTM在接受强化治疗的患者中发现了三个不同的轨迹:良好(n = 40),中度(n = 76)和差(n = 47)响应者。基线体重指数(BMI)、残疾、疲劳和抑郁水平在轨迹组之间存在显著差异。很少(10%)反应良好的人肥胖,而中等反应者和不良反应者分别为38%和43%(P = 0.002)。很少有(8%)好的应答者患有抑郁症,相比之下,14%的中度应答者和38%的不良应答者(P 结论:GBTMs确定了接受中度活动性RA强化治疗的患者疾病活动进展的三个轨迹。肥胖和抑郁等基线变量预测了不同的治疗反应。很少有好的反应者需要生物药物;它们单独对常规DMARD作出反应。GBTM有可能促进精准医疗,从而实现基于关键特征的以患者为导向的治疗策略。注册:TITRATE试验ISRCTN 70160382。

Background: Although reduced work ability is a substantial problem among people with inflammatory arthritis (IA), work ability is an underexposed area in clinical practice. Evidence on vocational interventions in IA is limited, but favourable results of delivery by a physiotherapist (PT) warrant the need for further research. Therefore, we aim to evaluate the (cost-)effectiveness of a multimodal, PT-led, vocational intervention in (self-)employed people with IA compared to usual care.

Methods: This randomized controlled trial will include 140 people with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) or axial spondyloarthritis (axSpA) who are (self-)employed and have reduced work ability (Work Ability Index - Single Item Scale (WAS) ≤ 7/10) and/or RA/axSpA related sick leave (≤ 6 months). Participants will be randomized 1:1 to the intervention or control condition (usual care). The intervention, delivered by primary care PTs, will be personalized to each patient, consisting of 10 to 21 sessions over 12 months. The intervention will be multimodal, comprising of 1) exercise therapy and a physical activity plan, 2) education/self-management support, 3) work-roadmap to guide participants in finding relevant other care, with optionally 4) online self-management course and 5) workplace examination. Assessments will be performed at baseline and after 3, 6, and 12 months. The primary outcome measure of effectiveness is work ability, as measured with the WAS at 12 months. For the cost-effectiveness analysis, the EuroQol (EQ-5D-5L), self-reported healthcare use, sick leave and productivity while at work will be used to estimate the trial based cost-utility from a societal perspective. A process evaluation, including assessments of adherence and treatment fidelity, will be undertaken using the registrations of the PTs and semi-structured interviews at 12 months follow-up in a random sample of the intervention group.

Discussion: The results of this study will provide insights in the (cost-)effectiveness of a multimodal, PT-led, vocational intervention in people with IA and a reduced work ability.

Trial registration: This study is registered in the International Clinical Trial Registry Platform (ICTRP) under number NL9343.

背景:尽管工作能力下降是炎症性关节炎(IA)患者的一个严重问题,但在临床实践中,工作能力是一个暴露不足的领域。关于IA职业干预的证据有限,但理疗师(PT)提供的有利结果证明需要进一步研究。因此,与常规护理相比,我们的目的是评估多模式、PT主导的职业干预对(自营)就业IA患者的(成本)有效性。方法:这项随机对照试验将包括140名类风湿性关节炎(RA)或轴性脊椎关节炎(axSpA)患者,他们(自营)工作,工作能力下降(工作能力指数-单项量表(WAS) ≤ 7/10)和/或RA/axSpA相关病假(≤ 6个月)。参与者将被1:1随机分配到干预或对照条件下(常规护理)。由初级保健PT提供的干预措施将针对每位患者进行个性化,包括12个月内的10至21次治疗。干预将是多模式的,包括1)运动治疗和体育活动计划,2)教育/自我管理支持,3)指导参与者寻找相关其他护理的工作路线图,以及可选的4)在线自我管理课程和5)工作场所检查。评估将在基线以及3、6和12个月后进行。有效性的主要结果衡量标准是工作能力,在12个月时用WAS进行测量。对于成本效益分析,EuroQol(EQ-5D-5L)、自我报告的医疗保健使用、病假和工作时的生产力将用于从社会角度估计基于试验的成本效用。过程评估,包括依从性和治疗保真度的评估,将在干预组的随机样本中使用PT的注册和12个月随访时的半结构化访谈进行。讨论:这项研究的结果将为多模式、PT主导的职业干预对IA和工作能力下降的人的(成本)有效性提供见解。试验注册:本研究在国际临床试验注册平台(ICTRP)注册,编号为NL9343。

Background: Cardiac tumours are rare, and clinical manifestations depend on the anatomical location. Symptoms can be the result of cardiac outflow anomalies, constitutional features such as fever, loss of weight, and/or paraneoplastic manifestations such as arthritis. To date, there has only been one other case report in the literature of cardiac sarcoma presenting as paraneoplastic arthropathy.

Case presentation: A 52-year-old woman presented with acute onset corticosteroid-resistant inflammatory polyarthralgia, clubbing and a systolic murmur. Transthoracic echocardiogram revealed a dilated left atrium with an echogenic mass and brain magnetic resonance imaging revealed multiple embolic infarcts. Histopathology following emergency resection showed a Grade 3 left atrial intimal sarcoma. The polyarthralgia and clubbing resolved soon after tumour removal. The patient went on to receive chemotherapy and remains in remission.

Conclusions: This case highlights the rare paraneoplastic association of cardiac sarcoma and arthropathy.

背景:心脏肿瘤是罕见的,临床表现取决于解剖位置。症状可由心流出异常、发热、体重减轻等体质特征和/或副肿瘤表现(如关节炎)引起。到目前为止,文献中只有一例心脏肉瘤表现为副肿瘤关节病。病例介绍:一名52岁女性表现为急性发作的皮质类固醇抵抗性炎症性多关节痛,棒状和收缩期杂音。经胸超声心动图显示左心房扩张伴回声肿块,脑磁共振成像显示多发栓塞性梗死。急诊切除后的组织病理学显示为3级左心房内膜肉瘤。多关节痛和杵状痛在肿瘤切除后很快消失。病人继续接受化疗,目前仍处于缓解期。结论:本病例强调了罕见的心脏肉瘤与关节病的副肿瘤关联。

Background: The study aimed to investigate novel biomarkers from the C1q TNF superfamily and evaluate their role in autoimmune inflammatory rheumatic diseases with the goal of identifying an effective biomarker to measure clinical disease activity and assess treatment efficacy.

Methods: Sixty-one Axial spondyloarthritis (AxSpa) patients and 30 healthy controls were enrolled in the study. The serum biomarkers subfatin, CTHRC1, CTRP3, CTRP6, IL-6, IL-17, and TNF-α and the disease indices BASDAI, BASFI, MASES, and ASDAS-ESR/CRP were evaluated and compared. The patients were then classified, and their serum biomarkers were assessed according to their ASDAS scores and their treatment regimens.

Results: Among the studied biomarkers, none showed a significant difference between the patients and the healthy controls. Although the difference was not statistically significant, the median values of serum subfatin, CTHRC1, CTRP3, CTRP6, IL-6, IL-17, and TNF-α were all found to be lower in the AxSpa patients than in the healthy controls. Furthermore, once the patients were classified regarding their disease activity, no correlation between the study biomarkers and levels of clinical disease indices was observed. Finally, biological treatments were found to affect the serum concentration of these biomarkers regardless of the level of disease activity.

Conclusion: Novel adipokines and known modulators of inflammation, circulating subfatin, CTHRC1, CTRP3, CTRP6, IL-6, IL-17, and TNF-α levels may play a role in assessing treatment efficacy, especially in those treated with TNF-inhibitors. However, we failed to demonstrate a correlation between clinical disease activity and serum biomarker levels.

背景:本研究旨在研究来自C1q TNF超家族的新型生物标志物,并评估其在自身免疫性炎症性风湿性疾病中的作用,目的是确定一种有效的生物标志物来测量临床疾病活动性和评估治疗效果。方法:选取61例轴性脊柱炎(AxSpa)患者和30名健康对照者。评估并比较两组患者血清生物标志物亚脂肪素、CTHRC1、CTRP3、CTRP6、IL-6、IL-17、TNF-α及疾病指标BASDAI、BASFI、MASES、ASDAS-ESR/CRP。然后对患者进行分类,并根据他们的ASDAS评分和治疗方案评估他们的血清生物标志物。结果:在所研究的生物标志物中,患者与健康对照组之间没有显着差异。虽然差异无统计学意义,但AxSpa患者血清亚脂肪素、CTHRC1、CTRP3、CTRP6、IL-6、IL-17和TNF-α的中位数均低于健康对照组。此外,一旦患者根据其疾病活动进行分类,研究生物标志物与临床疾病指标水平之间没有相关性。最后,发现无论疾病活动水平如何,生物治疗都会影响这些生物标志物的血清浓度。结论:新的脂肪因子和已知的炎症调节剂、循环亚脂肪素、CTHRC1、CTRP3、CTRP6、IL-6、IL-17和TNF-α水平可能在评估治疗效果中发挥作用,特别是在使用TNF抑制剂治疗的患者中。然而,我们未能证明临床疾病活动性与血清生物标志物水平之间的相关性。

Objectives: To study the risk of osteoporosis-related fractures in a community-based sample of men and women with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) overall, as well as early (< 1 year of disease duration, follow-up time maximum 10 years) and established (RA diagnosis since ≥ 5 years on July 1, 1997) RA, compared with the general population. To study potential risk factors for fractures in patients with RA from baseline questionnaire data.

Methods: A community-based cohort of patients with RA (n = 1928) was studied and compared to matched general population controls. Information on osteoporosis-related fractures (hip, proximal upper arm, distal forearm and vertebral fractures) during the period July 1, 1997 to December 31, 2017 was obtained by linkage to the Swedish National Inpatient Register and the Cause of Death Register. The incidence of fractures was estimated in patients and controls. Cox regression models were used to assess the relation between RA and the risk of fractures and to assess potential predictors of fractures in RA patients. Analyses were stratified by sex, and performed in all patients with RA, and in subsets with early and established RA.

Results: The overall incidence of osteoporosis-related fractures in the RA cohort was 10.6 per 1000 person-years (95% CI 9.31; 12.0). There was an increased risk of fractures overall in both men (hazard ratio (HR) 1.55, 95% CI 1.03; 2.34) and women (HR 1.52; 95% CI 1.27; 1.83) with RA compared to controls, with significantly increased risk also in the hip. No increased risk of osteoporosis-related fractures overall was seen in patients with early RA (HR 1.01, 95% CI 0.69; 1.49). Higher age, longer duration of RA, higher HAQ scores and higher scores in the visual analogue scale for global health were predictors of fractures.

Conclusion: Both men and women with RA were at increased risk of osteoporosis-related fractures. Patients with early RA did not have significantly increased risk during the first 10 years of disease in this study.

目的:研究以社区为基础的类风湿关节炎(RA)患者及早期患者骨质疏松相关骨折的风险。方法:以社区为基础的类风湿关节炎(RA)患者队列(n = 1928)进行研究,并与匹配的普通人群对照进行比较。1997年7月1日至2017年12月31日期间骨质疏松相关骨折(髋部、上臂近端、前臂远端和椎体骨折)的信息通过与瑞典国家住院登记和死亡原因登记的联系获得。估计患者和对照组的骨折发生率。采用Cox回归模型评估RA与骨折风险之间的关系,并评估RA患者骨折的潜在预测因素。分析按性别分层,并在所有RA患者以及早期和已确诊RA的亚群中进行。结果:RA队列中骨质疏松相关骨折的总发生率为10.6 / 1000人年(95% CI 9.31;12.0)。两组患者骨折的风险均增加(风险比(HR) 1.55, 95% CI 1.03;2.34)和女性(HR 1.52;95% ci 1.27;1.83),与对照组相比,髋部的风险也显著增加。早期RA患者骨质疏松相关骨折的风险总体上没有增加(HR 1.01, 95% CI 0.69;1.49)。年龄越大,RA持续时间越长,HAQ评分越高,整体健康视觉模拟评分越高,是骨折的预测因素。结论:男性和女性RA患者发生骨质疏松相关骨折的风险均增加。在本研究中,早期RA患者在发病的前10年没有明显的风险增加。

Background: Lifestyle physical activity (PA) is defined as any type of PA undertaken as part of daily life. It can include engagement in activities of daily living (i.e., household chores, gardening, walking to work), incidental PA, walking and/or reducing sedentary or sitting behaviours (SB). Regular PA is recommended for people with Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA) to reduce disease activity and systemic inflammation, as well as to improve patient- and clinician-important health outcomes. However, there is no summarised evidence of the effectiveness of interventions specifically targeting lifestyle PA and SB in this population. The aims of this systematic review with meta-analysis were to evaluate interventions targeting lifestyle PA and/or SB on 1) disease activity; 2) PA, SB and 3) patient- and clinician-important outcomes in people with RA.

Methods: Eight databases [Medline, Cochrane Library CENTRAL, Web of Science, PsychINFO, Cumulative Index to Nursing & Allied Health Literature, Scopus, Excerpta Medica database and Physiotherapy Evidence Database] were searched from inception-August 2022. Inclusion criteria required interventions to target lifestyle PA and/or SB, conducted in adults with RA, assessing patient- and/or clinician-important outcomes.

Results: Of 880 relevant articles, 16 interventions met the inclusion criteria. Meta-analyses showed statistically significant effects of interventions on disease activity (standardised mean difference = -0.12 (95% confidence interval = -0.23 to -0.01, I2 = 6%, z = 2.19, p = .03), moderate-to-vigorous PA, light/leisure PA, steps, functional ability, and fatigue. Whereas, no intervention effects were visualised for total PA, pain, anxiety or quality of life.

Conclusions: Lifestyle PA interventions led to increased PA, reductions in SB and improvements in disease activity and other patient- and/or clinician-important health outcomes in people with RA. Future interventions should be less heterogenous in content, structure, focus and outcome measures used to aid understanding of the most effective intervention components for improving health. More SB interventions are needed to determine their effectiveness at producing clinical benefits.

背景:生活方式体育活动(PA)是指作为日常生活一部分进行的任何类型的体育活动。它可以包括参与日常生活活动(即家务、园艺、步行上班)、附带PA、步行和/或减少久坐或久坐行为(SB)。建议类风湿性关节炎(RA)患者定期服用PA,以减少疾病活动和全身炎症,并改善患者和临床医生的重要健康结果。然而,没有总结证据表明专门针对该人群生活方式PA和SB的干预措施的有效性。这项荟萃分析系统综述的目的是评估针对生活方式PA和/或SB的干预措施:1)疾病活动;2) PA、SB和3)RA患者和临床医生的重要结果。方法:从2022年8月开始,检索8个数据库[Medline、Cochrane Library CENTRAL、Web of Science、PsychINFO、护理与相关健康文献累积索引、Scopus、医学摘录数据库和物理治疗证据数据库]。纳入标准要求对患有RA的成年人进行针对生活方式PA和/或SB的干预,评估患者和/或临床医生的重要结果。结果:在880篇相关文章中,有16篇干预措施符合纳入标准。荟萃分析显示,干预措施对疾病活动的影响具有统计学意义(标准化平均差 = -0.12(95%置信区间 = -0.23至-0.01,I2 = 6%,z = 2.19,p = .03)、中度至剧烈PA、轻度/休闲PA、步伐、功能能力和疲劳。然而,对于总PA、疼痛、焦虑或生活质量,没有观察到干预效果。结论:生活方式PA干预导致RA患者PA增加、SB减少、疾病活动和其他患者和/或临床医生重要健康结果的改善。未来的干预措施在内容、结构、重点和结果衡量方面应减少异质性,以帮助理解改善健康的最有效干预措施。需要更多的SB干预措施来确定其在产生临床效益方面的有效性。

Background: The psychological burden in people with inflammatory arthritis is substantial, yet little is known about the disease-related affect experienced by individuals with axial Spondyloarthritis (axial SpA). The aim of this study was to conduct a qualitative evidence synthesis and a review of social media to explore the emotional impact of living with axial SpA.

Methods: We searched nine databases for studies reporting qualitative data about participants' emotional experience of living with axial SpA. In addition, we searched social media platforms for posts from people with axial SpA based in the UK that offered insights into emotional responses to living with the condition. We employed a thematic approach to synthesise the data.

Results: We included 27 studies (1314 participants; 72% men) in our qualitative evidence synthesis and developed seven descriptive themes from the data: 1) delayed diagnosis: a barrier to emotional wellbeing; 2) disruptive symptoms: a source of mood swings; 3) work disability: a loss of self-esteem; 4) obstacles in interpersonal relationships: a trigger of distress; 5) taking up exercise: personal pride or unwelcomed reminders; 6) anti-TNF therapy: hope reignited despite concerns and 7) a journey of acceptance: worry mixed with hope. Posts extracted from social media fora (537; 48% from women) for the most part supported the seven themes. One additional theme-COVID-19, uncertainty and anxiety during the pandemic, was developed, reflecting common emotions expressed during the UK's first wave of the coronavirus pandemic.

Conclusion: This study highlights a preponderance of negative affect experienced by people living with axial SpA, conditioned through existing and anticipated symptoms, failed expectations, and lost sense of self. Given the bidirectional relationships between negative emotions and inflammation, negative emotions and perceptions of pain, and the influence of affect in self-care behaviours, this finding has important implications for treatment and management of people with axial SpA.

背景:炎症性关节炎患者的心理负担是巨大的,但对轴性脊柱炎(轴性SpA)患者所经历的疾病相关影响知之甚少。本研究的目的是进行定性证据综合和社交媒体的回顾,以探讨生活在轴向SpA的情感影响。方法:我们检索了9个数据库,以获得报告轴向SpA患者生活情绪体验的定性数据。此外,我们在社交媒体平台上搜索了英国轴向SpA患者的帖子,这些帖子提供了对生活在这种情况下的情绪反应的见解。我们采用专题方法来综合数据。结果:我们纳入了27项研究(1314名受试者;(72%男性)在我们的定性证据合成中,并从数据中开发了七个描述性主题:1)延迟诊断:情绪健康的障碍;2)破坏性症状:情绪波动的来源;3)工作残疾:丧失自尊;4)人际关系障碍:焦虑的触发因素;5)锻炼:个人自豪感或不受欢迎的提醒;6)抗肿瘤坏死因子治疗:希望重新燃起,尽管担忧和7)接受的旅程:担忧与希望混合。从社交媒体论坛中提取的帖子(537;48%来自女性),大多数人支持这七个主题。另一个主题是covid -19,大流行期间的不确定性和焦虑,反映了英国在第一波冠状病毒大流行期间表达的共同情绪。结论:本研究强调了轴向SpA患者所经历的负面影响的优势,这些负面影响是通过现有和预期的症状、期望失败和自我意识丧失来调节的。鉴于负性情绪与炎症、负性情绪与疼痛感知之间的双向关系,以及情绪对自我护理行为的影响,这一发现对轴向SpA患者的治疗和管理具有重要意义。
