To report clinical features and prognosis of HLA B27 acute anterior uveitis.
165 patients with recurrent acute anterior uveitis were divided into two groups: HLA B27-positive (group 1, 60 patients) and HLA B27-negative (group 2, 105 patients). A comparison between the two groups was performed.
Unilateral involvement was higher in group 1 (p = .046), and more simultaneous bilateral cases occurred in group 2 (p = .004). Group 1 was more correlated to systemic diseases than group 2 (50 versus 17.1%, p < .001), particularly to ankylosing spondylitis (35 versus 3.8%, p < .001). Uveitis was diagnosed before spondylitis in 57% of patients. In groups 1 and 2 an immunosuppressive therapy was administered to 20 and 9.5% of patients but was exclusively given to control uveitis in 1.6 and in 2.8% of cases, respectively.
A strong association between HLA B27 uveitis and ankylosing spondylitis was confirmed and usually uveitis preceded rheumatological involvement.
报告 HLA B27 急性前葡萄膜炎的临床特征和预后。
将 165 例复发性急性前葡萄膜炎患者分为两组:HLA B27 阳性(组 1,60 例)和 HLA B27 阴性(组 2,105 例)。对两组进行比较。
组 1 单侧受累比例较高(p =.046),组 2 同时双侧受累比例较高(p =.004)。组 1 与全身疾病的相关性高于组 2(50 比 17.1%,p <.001),特别是强直性脊柱炎(35 比 3.8%,p <.001)。57%的患者在出现脊柱炎前被诊断为葡萄膜炎。在组 1 和组 2 中,分别有 20%和 9.5%的患者接受了免疫抑制治疗,但分别仅有 1.6%和 2.8%的患者接受了免疫抑制治疗以控制葡萄膜炎。
HLA B27 相关性葡萄膜炎与强直性脊柱炎之间存在很强的关联,通常葡萄膜炎先于风湿性疾病发生。
