This study aims to investigate the prevalence of inflammatory back pain (IBP) and sacroiliitis in a systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) population as well as the association between IBP and the frequency of human leukocyte antigen B27 (HLA-B27).
The study included 281 SLE patients (16 males, 265 females; mean age 39.9±11.9 years; range, 20 to 69 years) and 100 healthy controls (HCs) (2 males, 98 females; mean age 41.2±10.1 years; range, 19 to 64 years). Participants were administered a five-item Assessment of SpondyloArthritis international Society-IBP questionnaire. Patients and controls with IBP underwent detailed clinical and laboratory examinations to detect sacroiliitis. Radiographic evaluations were performed by a blinded rheumatologist and radiologist. Interobserver reliability was assessed with Cohen's kappa test.
According to the questionnaire, IBP was present in 46 SLE patients (46/281; 16.3%) whereas none of the HC had IBP (p<0.001). In radiological assessment, 22 SLE patients (7.8%) had sacroiliitis detected by conventional X-ray and/or magnetic resonance imaging. Only one SLE patient with sacroiliitis had HLA-B27.
Our study showed that IBP is increased in SLE patients and IBP in SLE is not associated with HLA-B27.
本研究旨在调查系统性红斑狼疮(SLE)患者中炎性背痛(IBP)和骶髂关节炎的患病率,以及IBP与人类白细胞抗原B27(HLA - B27)频率之间的关联。
该研究纳入了281例SLE患者(16例男性,265例女性;平均年龄39.9±11.9岁;范围20至69岁)和100例健康对照者(HCs)(2例男性,98例女性;平均年龄41.2±10.1岁;范围19至64岁)。参与者接受了一项五项的国际脊柱关节炎协会-IBP问卷评估。患有IBP的患者和对照者接受了详细的临床和实验室检查以检测骶髂关节炎。由一位不知情的风湿病学家和放射科医生进行影像学评估。采用Cohen's kappa检验评估观察者间的可靠性。
根据问卷,46例SLE患者存在IBP(46/281;16.3%),而HCs中无一例有IBP(p<0.001)。在影像学评估中,22例SLE患者(7.8%)通过传统X线和/或磁共振成像检测出骶髂关节炎。仅有1例患有骶髂关节炎的SLE患者有HLA - B27。
我们的研究表明SLE患者中IBP增加,且SLE中的IBP与HLA - B27无关。
