Inflammatory bowel diseases (Crohn’s disease and ulcerative rectocolitis) have extraintestinal
manifestations 25% of the patients, with the most common one being the enteropathic
arthritis.
Methods: Prospective, observational, multicenter study with patients from 29 reference centers
participating in the Brazilian Registry of Spondyloarthritis (RBE), which incorporates
the RESPONDIA (Ibero-American Registry of Spondyloarthritis) group. Demographic and
clinical data were collected from 1472 patients and standardized questionnaires for the assessment
of axial mobility, quality of life, enthesitic involvement, disease activity and functional
capacity were applied. Laboratory and radiographic examinations were performed.
The aim of this study is to compare the clinical, epidemiological, genetic, imaging, treatment
and prognosis characteristics of patients with enteropathic arthritis with other types
of spondyloarthritis in a large Brazilian cohort.
Results: A total of 3.2% of patients were classified as having enteroarthritis, 2.5% had spondylitis
and 0.7%, arthritis (peripheral predominance). The subgroup of individuals with enteroarthritis
had a higher prevalence in women (P < 0.001), lower incidence of inflammatory
axial pain (P < 0.001) and enthesitis (P = 0.004). HLA-B27 was less frequent in the group
with enteroarthritis (P = 0.001), even when considering only those with the pure axial form.
There was a lower prevalence of radiographic sacroiliitis (P = 0.009) and lower radiographic
score (BASRI) (P = 0.006) when compared to patients with other types of spondyloarthritis.
They also used more corticosteroids (P < 0.001) and sulfasalazine (P < 0.001) and less nonsteroidal
anti-inflammatory drugs (P < 0.001) and methotrexate (P = 0.001).
Conclusion: There were differences between patients with enteroarthritis and other types
of spondyloarthritis, especially higher prevalence of females, lower frequency of HLA-B27,
associated with less severe axial involvement. |
