Anti-synthetase syndrome (ASyS) is a subset of idiopathic inflammatory myopathies characterized by a triad of myositis, interstitial lung disease, and arthritis. Patients with ASyS are generally treated with glucocorticoids, immunosuppressants, or both. We encountered a 53-year-old woman who developed anti-OJ autoantibodies-positive anti-synthetase syndrome following severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection and CoV-2 messenger RNA (mRNA) vaccination. Her dyspnea and rash resolved within 4 weeks of the initial examination, achieving spontaneous remission without treatment 52 weeks after the diagnosis. This case suggests a potential association between SARS-CoV-2 infection, mRNA vaccination, and the transient development of anti-OJ antibodies-positive ASyS.
抗合成酶综合征(ASyS)是特发性炎性肌病的一个亚型,其特征为肌炎、间质性肺病和关节炎三联征。ASyS患者通常采用糖皮质激素、免疫抑制剂或两者联合治疗。我们遇到一名53岁女性,在感染严重急性呼吸综合征冠状病毒2(SARS-CoV-2)并接种SARS-CoV-2信使核糖核酸(mRNA)疫苗后,出现抗OJ自身抗体阳性的抗合成酶综合征。她的呼吸困难和皮疹在初次检查后4周内消退,诊断后52周未经治疗实现自发缓解。该病例提示SARS-CoV-2感染、mRNA疫苗接种与抗OJ抗体阳性ASyS的短暂发生之间可能存在关联。
