Prominent Inflammatory Features of Monocytes/Macrophages in Acute Calcium Pyrophosphate Crystal Arthritis: a Comparison with Acute Gouty Arthritis.

ABSTRACT: Calcium pyrophosphate (CPP) crystals can present as acute inflammatory arthritis which is known as an acute CPP crystal arthritis. Although monocytes/macrophages have been shown to play a role in the initiation of crystal-mediated inflammatory responses, differences in their phenotypes between acute CPP crystal arthritis and acute gouty arthritis have not yet been investigated. We examined the immunological characteristics of synovial monocytes/macrophages in patients with acute CPP crystal and acute gouty arthritis. CD14⁺CD3^-CD19^-CD56^- cell frequencies in synovial fluid mononuclear cells (SFMCs) were measured. Expression of pro- and anti-inflammatory cytokines and markers was determined. The SFMCs were dominated by a population of monocytes/macrophages in acute CPP crystal arthritis similar to that in acute gout. Synovial monocytes/macrophages showed the phenotypes of infiltrated monocytes as shown by expression of CD88, C-C chemokine receptor type 2, myeloid-related protein (MRP)8 and MRP14 but not proto-oncogene tyrosine-protein kinase MER. Comparatively, the CD14⁺ cells from patients with acute CPP crystal arthritis had similar high levels of IL-1? and TNF-? production but significantly lower expression of IL-10 and M2 marker (CD163). The monocytes/macrophages had the capacity to produce IL-8 in response to CPP crystals. Proinflammatory features were more dominant in monocytes/macrophages during acute CPP crystal arthritis than those during acute gouty arthritis.

Project description:ObjectivesCalcium pyrophosphate deposition (CPPD) disease, broadly defined, has been associated with increased risk of cardiovascular (CV) events. We investigated risk of CV events in patients with acute CPP crystal arthritis, the acute manifestation of CPPD.MethodsCohort study using Mass General Brigham electronic health record (EHR) data, 1991-2017. Patients with acute CPP crystal arthritis were identified using a published machine learning algorithm with positive predictive value 81%. Comparators were matched on year of EHR entry and index date of patients with acute CPP crystal arthritis (first positive synovial fluid CPP result or mention of 'pseudogout', or matched encounter). Major adverse cardiovascular event (MACE) was a composite of non-fatal CV event (myocardial infarction, acute coronary syndrome, coronary revascularisation, stroke) and death. We estimated incidence rates (IRs) and adjusted hazard ratios for MACE, non-fatal CV event and death, allowing for differential estimates during years 0-2 and 2-10. Sensitivity analyses included: (1) patients with acute CPP crystal arthritis diagnosed during outpatient visits, (2) patients with linked Medicare data, 2007-2016 and (3)patients matched on number of CV risk factors.ResultsWe matched 1200 acute CPP crystal arthritis patients to 3810 comparators. IR for MACE in years 0-2 was 91/1000 person-years (p-y) in acute CPP crystal arthritis and 59/1000 p-y in comparators. In years 2-10, IR for MACE was 58/1000 p-y in acute CPP crystal arthritis and 53/1000 p-y in comparators. Acute CPP crystal arthritis was significantly associated with increased risk for MACE in years 0-2 (HR 1.32, 95% CI 1.01 to 1.73) and non-fatal CV event in years 0-2 (HR 1.92, 95% CI 1.12 to 3.28) and years 2-10 (HR 2.18, 95% CI 1.27 to 3.75), but not death. Results of sensitivity analyses were similar to the primary analysis; in the outpatient-only analysis, risk of non-fatal CVE was significantly elevated in years 2-10 but not in years 0-2.ConclusionsAcute CPP crystal arthritis was significantly associated with elevated short and long-term risk for non-fatal CV event.
