    (Springer London, 2021-03-11) Topcu, Atakan; Mursaloğlu, H. Hakan; Yalcınkaya, Yasemin; Karakurt, Sait; Yağız, Burcu; Alaca, Zeynep; Demir, Meryem; Coşkun, Belkıs Nihan; Dalkılıç, Ediz; İnanç, Nevsun; YAĞIZ, BURCU; COŞKUN, BELKIS NİHAN; DALKILIÇ, HÜSEYİN EDİZ; Bursa Uludağ Üniversitesi/Tıp Fakültesi/Romatoloji Anabilim Dalı.; 0000-0003-0298-4157; 0000-0002-0624-1986; 0000-0001-8645-2670; JQW-5031-2023; AAG-7155-2021; CMF-4757-2022
    Objectives We aim to investigate the relationship between pulmonary function and imaging parameters with symptom-related patient-reported outcome measures (PROs). Method We included 65 patients of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and connective tissue disease (CTD) with and without interstitial lung disease (ILD) into this cross-sectional study. We evaluated the relationship between FVC, DLco, and PROs and compared to HRCT findings. PROs included visual analogue scale for breathing, modified Borg scale, medical research council dyspnea scale, St. George's respiratory questionnaire (SGRQ), Leicester cough questionnaire, and Short Form 36 quality of life (SF-36 QoL). Results The mean age was 57.4 +/- 9.7 and 61.9% (39/65) of patients had an established ILD. In RA-ILD group, SGRQ score was higher (p < 0.001) and SF-36 physical functioning score was lower (p = 0.02) than CTD-ILD group. In RA group, there was a significant correlation between FVC and SF-36 role functioning/physical score (r = 0.724, p = 0.012). In CTD group, SF-36 general health score was correlated with both FVC (r = 0.441, p = 0.045) and DLco (r = 0.485, p = 0.035), and also SF-36 physical functioning score was correlated with FVC (r = 0.441, p = 0.040). PROs were found to be similar between ILD and non-ILD patients. SF-36 QoL total and SGRQ outcomes were worse in non-ILD group. Conclusions We concluded that PROs could be used to evaluate health-related quality of life (HRQoL) in RA- or CTD-related ILD. The physical health determinants of HRQoL are measurably worse in RA-ILD patients than in CTD patients. But, PROs may not be very helpful in differentiating patients with cough and/or shortness of breath due to ILD or non-ILD causes in RA/CTD.

    ObjectiveTo explore the impact of early versus late-onset psoriasis (PsO) on the disease characteristics of psoriatic arthritis (PsA) in a large-multicentre cohort.MethodsThe data from a multicentre psoriatic arthritis database was analysed. Patients were grouped according to age at psoriasis onset (early onset; 40 years of age, late-onset; 40 years of age) and disease characteristics of the groups were compared by adjusting for BMI and PsA duration, where necessary.ResultsAt the time of analyses, 1634 patients were recruited [62.8% females; early onset 1108 (67.8%); late-onset, 526 (32.2%)]. The late-onset group was more over-weight [66.8% vs. 86.8%, p<0.001; adjusted for age -aOR 1.55 (1.11-2.20; 95% CI)]. The early onset group had more scalp psoriasis at onset (56.7% vs. 43.0%, p<0.001), whereas extremity lesions were more common in the late-onset group (63.8% vs. 74.2%, p<0.001). Axial disease in males and psoriatic disease family history in females were significantly higher in the early onset group [38.0% vs. 25.4%; p=0.005; adjusted for PsA duration -aOR 1.76 (1.19-2.62; 95% CI) / 39.5% vs. 30.1%; p=0.003; OR 1.51 (1.15-1.99; 95% CI), respectively]. Psoriatic disease activity parameters, patient-physician reported outcomes and HAQ-DI scores were similar in both groups.ConclusionClinical features of PsA may be affected by the age at onset of PsO. Different genetic backgrounds in early and late-onset PsO may be driving the differences in psoriasis and PsA phenotypes.

    (Future Medicine, 2021-04-21) Akar, Servet; Kalyoncu, Umut; Dalkılıç, Ediz; Emmüngil, Hakan; Aziz, Ayten; Esen, Yasemin; Koç, Tuba; DALKILIÇ, HÜSEYİN EDİZ; Bursa Uludağ Üniversitesi/Tıp Fakültesi/İç Hastalıkları Anabilim Dalı/Romatoloji Bilim Dalı.; CMF-4757-2022
    Aim: To evaluate the retention rate of golimumab (GLM) in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and axial spondyloarthritis (ax-SpA). Materials & methods: Patients had received/were receiving GLM as their first or second biological drug for at least 3 months. We recorded demographic and clinical data, data on drug continuation and disease activity. Patients were classified as biologic-naive and biologic-experienced. Results: The study included 60 RA and 269 ax-SpA patients. At month 24, the retention rates were 67.2 and 57.1% (biologic-naive and biologic-experienced RA) and 74.8 and 80.4% (anti-TNF-naive and -experienced ax-SpA). No significant differences in retention were observed between the biologic-naive and -experienced groups for either disease. Conclusion: The results of this study confirm the effectiveness of GLM in the treatment of RA and axSpA with good retention rates at 2 years in a real-world setting in Turkey.

    Objective: Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) of the lower extremities is the most common form of vascular involvement in Behcet disease (BD), frequently leading to post-thrombotic syndrome (PTS) as a disabling complication. We have described the clinical characteristics and predictors of PTS presence among patients with BD and lower extremity DVT. We also used venous Doppler ultrasound (US) examinations in our assessment. Methods: Patients with BD (n = 205; 166 men, 39 women; age 39 6 9.5 years) and a history of DVT were investigated. The Villalta scale was used to assess the presence and severity of PTS. Doppler US examinations were performed within 1 week of the clinical evaluation. The total number of vessels with reflux, thrombi, recanalization, and collateral vessels were calculated. Results: Of the 205 patients with BD, 62% had had PTS and 18% had had severe PTS. Patients with PTS had had greater reflux (P = .054) and thrombosis (P = .02) scores compared with patients without PTS. Treatment with anticoagulation (AC), immunosuppressive (IS) therapy, or AC combined with IS drugs did not affect the occurrence of PTS. However, patients treated with IS therapy, with or without AC drugs, had a decreased incidence of severe PTS compared with the AC-only group (P = .017). Patients treated with AC plus IS agents also had increased collateral scores compared with patients treated with only IS drugs. Interferon-a use seemed to provide better recanalization scores compared with azathioprine only (1.0 [range, 0-14] vs 2.5 [range, 0-10]; P = .010). Conclusions: Patients with BD and DVT have a high risk of developing severe PTS. IS treatment decreases the development of severe PTS. AC therapy might influence the course of PTS by increasing the collateral scores, and the use of interferon-a also increased recanalization scores. Routine assessment with Doppler US examinations could be helpful in the prediction of severe PTS.

    Real-world data on change in work productivity, activity impairment, and quality of life in patients with psoriatic arthritis under anti-TNF therapy: a postmarketing, noninterventional, observational study
    (Springer London, 2021-08-23) Karadağ, Ömer; Dalkılıç, Ediz; Ayan, Gizem; Küçükşahin, Orhan; Kaşifoğlu, Timuçin; Yılmaz, Neslihan; Koca, Süleyman Serdar; Yazısız, Veli; Erten, Pınar Talu; Sayarlıoğlu, Mehmet; Terzioğlu, Mustafa Ender; Erten, Şükran; Kalyoncu, Umut; DALKILIÇ, HÜSEYİN EDİZ; Bursa Uludağ Üniversitesi/Tıp Fakültesi/İç Hastalıkları Anabilim Dalı/Romatoloji Bilim Dalı.; CMF-4757-2022
    Objectives To understand change in work productivity, activity impairment, quality of life (QoL), and disease activity in patients with psoriatic arthritis (PsA) receiving anti-tumor necrosis factor (anti-TNF) treatment.Method One hundred twenty patients with PsA receiving anti-TNF therapy were recruited to this noninterventional, observational study. Work disability was assessed via the Work Productivity and Activity Impairment (WPAI) questionnaire and disease activity was calculated via the 28-joint Disease Activity Score using C-reactive protein (DAS28-CRP) and Disease Activity Index for Psoriatic Arthritis with 28 joints (DAPSA28) score. Patient-reported outcomes (PROs), from visual analog scores and Health Assessment Questionnaire-Disability Index scores, were evaluated to understand the clinical effectiveness at baseline and every 3 months until the month-9 final visit. The American College of Rheumatology (ACR)20/50/70 response criteria were assessed at month 9.Results A total of 120 patients (females, n = 73) were enrolled in the study. Mean (SD) age and disease duration were 41.6 +/- 11.1 years and 6.9 +/- 6.5 years, respectively. The most commonly used TNF alpha inhibitor was adalimumab (42.4%), followed by etanercept (25.8%). All WPAI questionnaire parameters were reduced at the follow-up visits compared with baseline (p < 0.001 for all). PROs and disease activity indicators (DAS28-CRP and DAPSA28) significantly improved during the course of anti-TNF treatments (p < 0.001 for all). Additionally, ACR20/50/70 responses were determined as 86.8%, 63.7%, and 41.8% of patients at the month-9 visit.Conclusions The real-world data in PsA patients receiving anti-TNF treatment showed improvement in WPAI, QoL, and disease activity over 9 months of treatment.

    (TÜBİTAK, 2021-01-01) Kalyoncu, Umut; Pehlivan, Yavuz; Akar, Servet; Kaşifoğlu, Timuçin; Kimyon, Gezmiş; Karadağ, Ömer; Dalkılıç, Ediz; Ertenli, Ali İhsan; Kılıç, Levent; Ersözlü, Duygu; Beş, Cemal; Emmungil, Hakan; Mercan, Rıdvan; Ediboğlu, Elif Durak; Kanıtez, Nilüfer; Bilgin, Emre; Çolak, Seda; Koca, Süleyman Serdar; Gönüllü, Emel; Küçükşahin, Orhan; Coşkun, Nihan; Yağız, Burcu; Kiraz, Sedat; PEHLİVAN, YAVUZ; DALKILIÇ, HÜSEYİN EDİZ; COŞKUN, BELKIS NİHAN; Bursa Uludağ Üniversitesi/Tıp Fakültesi/İç Hastalıkları Anabilim Dalı.; 0000-0002-3734-1242; 0000-0003-1372-1555; 0000-0001-5184-4404; 0000-0003-1185-5816; 0000-0002-2260-4660; 0000-0003-4995-430X; 0000-0002-6990-4206; W-7332-2019; AAK-7851-2021; AAD-5448-2019; AAZ-5845-2021; AAG-8227-2021; C-8092-2015; JQW-5031-2023; GZA-3287-2022
    Background/aim: To evaluate treatment adherence and predictors of drug discontinuation among patients with inflammatory arthritis receiving bDMARDs within the first 100 days after the announcement of the COVID-19 pandemic. Materials and methods: A total of 1871 patients recorded in TReasure registry for whom advanced therapy was prescribed for rheumatoid arthritis (RA) or spondyloarthritis (SpA) within the 3 months (6-9 months for rituximab) before the declaration of COVID-19 pandemic were evaluated, and 1394 (74.5%) responded to the phone survey. Patients' data regarding demographic, clinical characteristics and disease activity before the pandemic were recorded. The patients were inquired about the diagnosis of COVID-19, the rate of continuation on bDMARDs, the reasons for treatment discontinuation, if any, and the current general disease activity (visual analog scale, [VAS]). Results: A total of 1394 patients (493 RA [47.3% on anti-TNF] patients and 901 SpA [90.0% on anti-TNF] patients) were included in the study. Overall, 2.8% of the patients had symptoms suggesting COVID-19, and 2 (0.15%) patients had PCR-confirmed COVID-19. Overall, 18.1% of all patients (13.8% of the RA and 20.5% of the SpA; p = 0.003) discontinued their bDMARDs. In the SpA group, the patients who discontinued bDMARDs were younger (40 [21-73] vs. 44 years [20-79]; p = 0.005) and had higher general disease activity; however, no difference was relevant for RA patients. Conclusion: Although the COVID-19 was quite uncommon in the first 100 days of the pandemic, nearly one-fifth of the patients discontinued bDMARDs within this period. The long-term effects of the pandemic should be monitored.

    Attitudes of patients with a rheumatic disease on drug use in the COVID-19 pandemic
    (BMC, 2021-09-03) Coşkun, Belkıs Nihan; Pehlivan, Yavuz; Dalkılıç, Ediz; COŞKUN, BELKIS NİHAN; PEHLİVAN, YAVUZ; DALKILIÇ, HÜSEYİN EDİZ; Bursa Uludağ Üniversitesi/Tıp Fakültesi/Romatoloji Anabilim Dalı; 0000-0003-0298-4157; AAG-8227-2021; CMF-4757-2022
    Background Anti-rheumatic drugs can increase the predisposition to infection, and patients may be unaware of continuing their treatment during the COVID-19 pandemic. Objective This study aimed to assess whether patients maintain their treatment for rheumatic conditions during the pandemic period and determine the factors responsible for discontinuation. Methods Patients were randomly selected from the prospectively collected database of our tertiary referral center. The patients were interviewed by telephone through a standardized closed-ended questionnaire, which is targeting the continuity of the treatment plan and the considerations related to the individual choice. The patients were asked whether they hesitated to visit the hospital for follow-up or intravenous drug administration. Results A total of 278 patients completed the questionnaire. While 62 of the patients (22.3%) had reduced or interrupted the treatment, only 11 patients (3.9%) stopped the treatment completely. A significant difference was observed between the duration of illness and the discontinuation of treatment. (p = 0.023) There was a significant difference in disease activity between the group that stopped treatment and continued treatment. (p = 0.001) There was no statistically significant difference in other demographic characteristics. One hundred thirty-five patients (48.6%) made the treatment decision by themselves, and 80% continued the treatment. Reasons for stopping the treatment were anxiety (48.4%), not being able to go to the hospital for intravenous treatment (45.1%), and not being able to find the drug (6.5%). Conclusion Since patients with long-term illnesses were found to be significantly more likely to stop their treatment, this group of patients should be monitored.
