- W3165307683 abstract "Background: The epidemiology of COVID19 among patients with AIIRD may be influenced by a dysregulated immune system, immunosuppressive therapies and behavioral patterns. Data regarding the epidemiology of COVID19 among patients with AIIRD is scarce. Objectives: To assess the pattern of COVID19 pandemic among patients with AIIRD compared to the general population in Israel Methods: At the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic, we established a national registry of patients with AIIRD, diagnosed with COVID-19, based on voluntary reporting by the treating rheumatologist. All the members of the Israeli Society of Rheumatology were encouraged to participate and repeatedly reminded to report any new cases. Rheumatology centers from 11 hospitals from the Northern and Central part of Israel participated in this study. The registry included demographic data, AIIRD diagnosis and duration, systemic organ involvement, co-morbidities, treatment (conventional synthetic disease modifying drugs (csDMARDs), biologic/targeted (b/ts) DMARDs, corticosteroids use, dose and treatment duration, date of COVID19 diagnosis, severity of the viral disease and complications, duration of hospitalization, if required, treatment for COVID 19, laboratory results and outcome. The diagnosis of COVID 19 was made by a positive SARS CoV2 PCR. The indications for SARS CoV2 PCR testing in Israel comprise clinical symptoms or exposure to a confirmed close contact. Severe illness was defined by SpO 2 <94% in room air, respiratory rate of >30 breaths/min, PaO 2 /FiO 2 <300 mm Hg, or lung infiltrates >50% on chest imaging. The epidemiological data regarding the number of COVID19 confirmed patients, the number of severe cases and the rate of mortality among the general population per day and per week, were extracted from the data dashboard of the Israeli Ministry of Health. We analyzed data from 02.2020 to 15.01.2021. Results: During the study period we experienced 3 waves of COVID 19 pandemic. The governmental management of COVID19 spread, at the beginning of the pandemic, included inforcement of severe travel restrictions and social distancing, followed eventually by a preventive lockdown, in spite of the relatively low number of cases. Easing of the restrictions, lifting the travel ban, opening of the commerce and schools led to 2 much more severe waves, which triggered 2 new lockdowns. Up to January 2021, 549763 Israelis had confirmed COVID19, 30% of whom had severe disease, 0.84% died (30% of the patients with severe disease). We identified 190 AIIRD patients (mean(SD) age 52(18), 30% males) who had confirmed COVID19. The weekly incidence curve of patients with rheumatic diseases correlated with the curve of the general population (Figure 1). Sixty-one % of the patients with AIIRD received csDMARDs, 41% were on b/tsDMARDs, 39% on chronic corticosteroids, 12% on ≥10mg prednisone. Forty-seven% of patients required hospitalization, 20% had severe COVID19. Sixteen patients (42% of patients with severe COVID19) (mean(SD), median age 64.7(15.4),67)) died (systemic sclerosis-4 patients, rheumatoid arthritis – 6, systemic lupus erythematosus – 2, antiphospholipid syndrome-2, granulomatous polyangiitis -1, polymyalgia rheumatica-1). The AIIRD was active in 56% of them, 50% received csDMARDs, none of them were on b/tsDMARDs, 31% received chronic prednisone>10 mg. All patients who died had at least 2 comorbidities. Conclusion: The pattern of spread of COVID19 in AIIRD patients is similar to the general population despite repeated mass media alerts for enhanced social distancing for elderly and immune suppressed patients. The disease tends to be more severe with enhanced mortality, especially in those with active AIIRD disease and organ involvement (lungs, heart, renal), older age and co-morbidities. A reporting bias cannot be excluded. Figure 1. Acknowledgements: Both first authors contributed equally to the manuscript. Disclosure of Interests: None declared." @default.
