Clinical phenotypes and prognostic factors of adult-onset Still's disease: data from a large inpatient cohort.

ABSTRACT:

Objectives

To define different clinical phenotypes and assess prognostic factors of adult-onset Still's disease (AOSD).

Methods

Overall, 492 patients with AOSD seen between 2004 and 2018 at a single centre were retrospectively studied.

Results

Of these patients, 78% were female, and the median age at onset was 34 (25-49) years [median (25th-75th percentile)]. The median follow-up time was 7 (3-10) years [median (25th-75th percentile)]. Clinical manifestations at admission were used to subdivide patients with AOSD as follows: systemic inflammation (cluster 1), pure (cluster 2), and intermediate (cluster 3). Each subtype had distinct clinical manifestations and prognoses: cluster 1 (34.6%)-multiple organ manifestations, highest infection rate and mortality, and more than half of the patients with at least one relapse during follow-up; cluster 2 (21.3%)-exclusively female, rash and joint involvement, no internal organ involvement, no mortality, and most of the patients with a monocyclic course; and cluster 3 (44.1%)-less infection rate, no serious complications, and lower mortality rate. The 5- and 10-year survival rates after diagnosis were 92.4% and 86.9%, respectively. Independent risk factors for mortality were age at onset ≥50 (hazard ratio (HR): 6.78, 95% CI: 2.10-21.89), hepatomegaly (HR: 5.05, 95% CI: 1.44-17.70), infection (HR: 15.56, 95% CI: 5.88-41.20), and MAS (HR: 26.82, 95% CI: 7.52-95.60).

Conclusion

Three subtypes of AOSD were identified with distinct clinical manifestations and prognoses. Age at onset ≥50, hepatomegaly, infection, and MAS were prognostic factors for AOSD mortality.

The Association of ATG16L1 Variations with Clinical Phenotypes of Adult-Onset Still's Disease.

Project description:Adult-onset Still's disease (AOSD) is a rare autoinflammatory disease, which has elevated autophagosome levels regulated by autophagy-related gene (ATG) expression. We investigated the associations of ATG polymorphisms with AOSD susceptibility, clinical manifestations, and disease course. The six-candidate single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) involved in autophagy were genotyped using direct sequencing on samples from 129 AOSD patients and 129 healthy participants. The differentially expressed gene products were quantified using PCR and ELISA. Significant linkage disequilibrium was noted in three SNPs of autophagy-related 16-like 1 (ATG16L1) gene (rs10210302, rs2241880, and rs1045100). Although the AA/CC/TT haplotype of ATG16L1 was not associated with the susceptibility of our AOSD patients compared with other haplotypes, those carrying this haplotype had lower mRNA expression levels of LC3-II, reflecting by autophagosome formation (p = 0.026). Patients carrying AA/CC/TT haplotype also have a significantly higher proportion of skin rash and a lower proportion of arthritis compared with other haplotypes. The AA/CC/TT haplotype was significantly associated with systemic pattern (odds ratio, 3.25; 95% confidence interval, 1.15-9.14; p = 0.026). In summary, the AA/CC/TT haplotype encoded lower levels of autophagosome formation and was associated with a higher proportion of skin rash and systemic pattern of AOSD compared with other haplotypes.

Pregnancy Outcomes in Patients With Adult-Onset Still's Disease: A Cohort Study From China.

Project description:Objective: Adult-onset Still's disease (AOSD) is an autoinflammatory disease with a higher prevalence rate in young females. The purpose of this study is to investigate whether AOSD has an adverse impact on pregnancy outcomes, or conversely exacerbated by pregnancy. Methods: The outcomes of 191 pregnancies were evaluated in 86 female patients with AOSD. The generalized linear mixed model and propensity score matching method were conducted to evaluate the influence of AOSD on pregnancy outcomes. A dependent sample sign test was applied to assess the impact of pregnancy on the relapse of AOSD. Results: The results showed that the post-AOSD group had a lower proportion of normal delivery (25.0 vs. 52.4%, p = 0.036) and a higher proportion of spontaneous abortion (STA) (18.8 vs. 0.6%, p = 0.002) compared with the pre-AOSD group. Moreover, pregnancy after being diagnosed with AOSD was a significant high risk factor of STA (adjusted OR = 4.577, 95% CI: 4.166-845.119; p = 0.003). Disease flare upon conception was observed in one of 16 post-AOSD pregnancies (p = 1.000). There were 11 patients with new-onset AOSD during gestation or postpartum, among which five (45.4%) evolved into the polycyclic course. Conclusions: AOSD patients might suffer from a higher risk of STA, however, pregnancy might not be related with the exacerbation of diagnosed AOSD. New-onset AOSD during gestation or postpartum tend to evolve into the polycyclic course.

Monocyte gene expression in adult-onset Still's disease

Project description:Adult-onset Still’s disease (AOSD) is a rare autoinflammatory disease, characterized by fever, rash, arthritis and other systemic inflammatory manifestations like hepatosplenomegaly and serositis. One of the most serious complications AOSD is macrophage activation syndrome (MAS), a life-threatening condition caused by excessive activation of immune system and a cytokine storm. Clinical features of MAS include continuous high fever, hepatosplenomegaly, liver dysfunction, lymphadenopathy, hyperferritinemia, and hemophagocytosis. The prevalence of MAS in AOSD patients is estimated to be between 10–19%, but the mortality rate of AOSD-associated MAS is approximately 10–20%. The precise mechanism by which AOSD develops to MAS remains unclear. There is an unmet need to investigate the pathogenesis of MAS in AOSD in order to identify novel biomarkers and therapeutic targets to improve disease prognosis.

Neutrophil gene expression in adult-onset Still's disease

Project description:Adult-onset Still’s disease (AOSD) is a rare autoinflammatory disease, characterized by fever, rash, arthritis and other systemic inflammatory manifestations like hepatosplenomegaly and serositis. Neutrophil activation is the hallmark of AOSD. Here we aimed to identify candidate biomarker and to validate its association with clinical manifestations in AOSD. Transcriptome analysis of neutrophils from treatment-naïve active AOSD patients and healthy donors was performed. Using cut-offs of >2.0 fold change with p<0.05, we identified 864 DEGs in neutrophils from patients with active AOSD compared to healthy donors, including 442 and 422 upregulated and downregulated genes in active AOSD, respectively. By gene ontology (GO) analysis, we identified several strongly enriched terms of biological process. The most significantly indicated GO term was neutrophil degranulation.

Cytomegalovirus Infection May Trigger Adult-Onset Still's Disease Onset or Relapses.

Project description:Previous studies have revealed that several micro-organisms, especially DNA viruses, have been associated with adult-onset Still's disease (AOSD). However, there are no studies on the relationship between the presence of viral infections in AOSD patients with disease occurrence and reactivation. In the present study, we aimed to investigate the presence of antibodies against virus, virus DNA load and nucleic acid sensors in AOSD patients. Anti-viral antibodies were measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) in plasma samples from 100 AOSD patients and 70 healthy controls (HCs). The copy number of cytomegalovirus (CMV) DNA in 100 AOSD patients was detected by PCR. The expression levels of nucleic acid sensors interferon gamma-inducible protein 16 (IFI16) and absent in melanoma 2 (AIM2) in peripheral blood mononuclear cell (PBMC) and skin from AOSD patients and HCs were analyzed by PCR and immunohistochemistry. The levels of antibodies against CMV were significantly higher in AOSD patients compared to HCs. Moreover, the level of anti-CMV IgM antibody was significantly increased in patients with fever, sore throat, arthralgia and rash. CMV DNA was found in plasma of AOSD patients with disease new-onset and relapse. Furthermore, the copy number of CMV DNA significantly increased in patients with fever, sore throat, arthralgia and rash. And the significant associations of the CMV DNA level with the levels of leukocytes, erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR), C-reactive protein (CRP) and tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) were observed. Moreover, we found an upregulation of cytoplasmic DNA-sensing receptor IFI16 and AIM2 in PBMC and skin from AOSD patients. In conclusion, our results showed that CMV infection may play a role in the initiation or amplification of inflammatory responses in AOSD.

Clinical characteristics and comorbidities in adult-onset Still's disease using a large US administrative claims database.

Project description:ObjectivesWe aimed to describe clinical characteristics, treatment patterns and major comorbidities of a US-based adult-onset Still's disease (AOSD) cohort.MethodsAdministrative claims data from Truven MarketScan were collected from 2009 to 2015. An AOSD case was defined as ≥1 M06.1 International Classification of Diseases 10th revision (ICD-10) medical claim code. We extracted data for the AOSD cohort (n = 106) and 1:5 matched controls (n = 530) without AOSD. Outcomes of interest and a novel claims-based set of Yamaguchi criteria were identified by relevant ICD 9th revision (ICD-9) and ICD-10 codes. Bivariate descriptive analyses were conducted on all variables. Comorbidity rates and rate ratios were calculated in AOSD cases and matched controls. Statistical significance of cohort differences was determined to compare AOSD cases and matched controls.ResultsThe AOSD cohort, with a mean age of 43.08 (standard deviation, s.d. 13.9) years and with female predominance (68.9%) was observed over a mean of 750.12 (637.6) days. A total of 35.9% of AOSD patients fulfilled claims-based Yamaguchi criteria compared with 0.4% matched controls (P< 0.05). We identified severe AOSD-related complications, including macrophage activation syndrome (4.7%) and acute respiratory distress syndrome (12.3%). Treatment commonly involved systemic glucocorticoids (62.2%), MTX (51%) and anakinra (24.5%). Compared with matched controls, serious infections were significantly increased (rate ratio 2.58, 95% CI: 1.53, 4.37, P = 0.0004), while hyperlipidaemia (0.54, 95% CI: 0.35, 0.85; P = 0.008) and obesity (0.30, 95% CI: 0.15, 0.62; P = 0.001) were significantly decreased in AOSD patients.ConclusionWe characterized a first US-based AOSD cohort using a large national administrative claims database, and identified key complications, treatments and comorbidities.

Anti-Interleukin-1 Agents in Adult Onset Still's Disease.

Project description:Interleukin 1? (IL-1?) is emerging as a master mediator of adult onset Still's disease (AOSD) pathogenesis. This pleiotropic cytokine, whose expression is under the control of the inflammasome pathway, has a wide type of effects. As a key mediator of innate immunity is a potent pyrogen and facilitates neutrophilic proliferation and diapedesis into the inflamed tissues, which are key AOSD manifestations. The study of proinflammatory cytokines profiles in sera and pathological tissues of AOSD patients has shown elevated levels of IL-1?, these levels being highly correlated with disease activity and severity. These experimental evidences and the analogy with other autoinflammatory diseases that share with AOSD clinical and biological characteristics have suggested the blockade of IL-1? as a possible new therapeutic option for the AOSD, especially in conventional therapy resistant cases. Anakinra, the first anti-IL-1 agent put on the market, has demonstrated capable to induce a rapid response sustained over time, especially in systemic forms, where anti-TNF? failed to control symptoms. While a growing number of evidences supports the utilisation of anakinra in AOSD, a new generation of anti-IL1? antagonists is developing. Canakinumab and rilonacept, thanks to their higher affinity and longer half-life, could improve the management of this invalidating disease.

Adult-Onset Still's Disease: Clinical Aspects and Therapeutic Approach.

Project description:Adult-onset Still's disease (AoSD) is a rare systemic autoinflammatory disease characterized by arthritis, spiking fever, skin rash and elevated ferritin levels. The reason behind the nomenclature of this condition is that AoSD shares certain symptoms with Still's disease in children, currently named systemic-onset juvenile idiopathic arthritis. Immune dysregulation plays a central role in AoSD and is characterized by pathogenic involvement of both arms of the immune system. Furthermore, the past two decades have seen a large body of immunological research on cytokines, which has attributed to both a better understanding of AoSD and revolutionary advances in treatment. Additionally, recent studies have introduced a new approach by grouping patients with AoSD into only two phenotypes: one with predominantly systemic features and one with a chronic articular disease course. Diagnosis presupposes an extensive diagnostic workup to rule out infections and malignancies. The severe end of the spectrum of this disease is secondary haemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis, better known as macrophage activation syndrome. In this review, we discuss current research conducted on the pathogenesis, diagnosis, classification, biomarkers and complications of AoSD, as well as the treatment strategy at each stage of the disease course. We also highlight the similarities and differences between AoSD and systemic-onset juvenile idiopathic arthritis. There is a considerable need for large multicentric prospective trials.

Adult-onset Still's disease: current challenges and future prospects.

Project description:Adult-onset Still's disease (AOSD) - a multi-systemic inflammatory condition characterized by high fevers, polyarthritis, an evanescent rash, and pharyngitis - has been a challenging condition to diagnose expediently and treat effectively. Questions remain regarding the underlying pathophysiology and etiology of AOSD. Pathognomonic diagnostic tests and reliable biomarkers remain undiscovered. Over the past decade, important progress has been made. Diagnostic criteria employing glycosylated ferritin have improved specificity. More important, novel biologic therapies have offered important clues to AOSD's underlying pathophysiology. Cytokine-specific biologic therapies have been instrumental in providing more effective treatment for disease refractory to conventional treatment. While IL-1 therapy has demonstrated efficacy in refractory disease, novel therapies targeting IL-6 and IL-18 show great promise and are currently under investigation.
