OBJECTIVE: To estimate and compare the incidence and survival impact of pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) among patients with various connective tissue diseases (CTDs). METHODS: We used a national health insurance database in Taiwan and enrolled patients with incident systemic sclerosis (SSc), systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), primary Sjögren's syndrome (pSS), polymyositis/dermatomyositis (PM/DM) and rheumatoid arthritis (RA) between 2002 and 2013. We calculated the cumulative incidence of PAH and the probability of survival after PAH diagnosis by the Kaplan-Meier method. RESULTS: Of 1653 SSc patients, 127 (7.68%) developed PAH. Of 11,735 SLE patients, 242 (2.06%) developed PAH. Of 17,316 pSS patients, 1811 PM/DM patients, and 32,296 RA patients, 38 (0.22%), 6 (0.33%) and 15 (0.04%) patients developed PAH, respectively. The most common CTD among all CTD-PAH patients was SLE (57%), followed by SSc (30%), pSS (9%), RA (3%) and PM/DM (1%). The 1-, 3- and 5-year survival rates for SSc-PAH were 88.3%, 72.1% and 61.9%, respectively. The 1-, 3- and 5-year survival rates for SLE-PAH were 87.6%, 75.8% and 69.4%, respectively. The 1-, 3- and 5-year survival rates for pSS-PAH were 90.8%, 86.8% and 80.6%, respectively. CONCLUSIONS: SLE was the most common underlying CTD, followed by SSc, in the total CTD-PAH population. However, the highest risk of developing PAH was observed in the SSc groups. PAH is a very rare complication in pSS, PM/DM and RA. Patients with SSc-PAH have the worst survival rate compared to those with SLE-PAH or pSS-PAH.
目的:估计和比较各种结缔组织疾病(CTD)患者中肺动脉高压(PAH)的发病率和生存影响。
方法:我们使用台湾的全民健康保险数据库,招募了 2002 年至 2013 年间患有系统性硬化症(SSc)、系统性红斑狼疮(SLE)、原发性干燥综合征(pSS)、多发性肌炎/皮肌炎(PM/DM)和类风湿关节炎(RA)的患者。我们通过 Kaplan-Meier 法计算 PAH 的累积发病率和 PAH 诊断后的生存率。
结果:在 1653 名 SSc 患者中,有 127 名(7.68%)发展为 PAH。在 11735 名 SLE 患者中,有 242 名(2.06%)发展为 PAH。在 17316 名 pSS 患者、1811 名 PM/DM 患者和 32296 名 RA 患者中,分别有 38 名(0.22%)、6 名(0.33%)和 15 名(0.04%)患者发展为 PAH。所有 CTD-PAH 患者中最常见的 CTD 是 SLE(57%),其次是 SSc(30%)、pSS(9%)、RA(3%)和 PM/DM(1%)。SSc-PAH 的 1、3 和 5 年生存率分别为 88.3%、72.1%和 61.9%。SLE-PAH 的 1、3 和 5 年生存率分别为 87.6%、75.8%和 69.4%。pSS-PAH 的 1、3 和 5 年生存率分别为 90.8%、86.8%和 80.6%。
结论:SLE 是总 CTD-PAH 人群中最常见的基础 CTD,其次是 SSc。然而,PAH 发病风险最高的是 SSc 组。PAH 是 pSS、PM/DM 和 RA 中非常罕见的并发症。与 SLE-PAH 或 pSS-PAH 相比,SSc-PAH 患者的生存率最差。
