Breve descrizione dei contenuti:

Data on the progression of atherosclerosis in spondyloarthritis (SpA) are scarce, despite a high burden of cardiovascular diseases (CVD). The aim of this study was to identify the predictors of an accelerated subclinical atherosclerosis in patients with SpA. Study participants were 66 patients free of CVD classified according to ASAS criteria. The patients were evaluated at baseline and after 13.5 ± 3.6 months. Ultrasound measurements of carotid intima-media thickness (cIMT) and distensibility coefficient (cDC) were used to assess the extent of subclinical atherosclerosis. cIMT progression rate was calculated dividing the cIMT change by the time between the scans. Accelerated atherosclerosis was defined as the top cIMT progression rate quartile. At baseline, the mean Framingham Risk Score was 14 ± 11%. At follow-up, cIMT increased in 39 patients (59%; mean difference 0.01 ± 0.10; p = 0.334). Mean cIMT progression rate was 0.01 mm/year (95% CI - 0.02 to 0.03). cDC was unchanged at follow-up. Patients with accelerated atherosclerosis (n = 16) had significantly higher serum creatinine and lower glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) at baseline. In multiple logistic regression, only eGFR and the presence of syndesmophytes were associated with an accelerated atherosclerosis, independent of traditional cardiovascular risk factors. In patients with SpA without overt CV disease, a decrease in renal function and radiographic damage are conditions associated with the development of subclinical accelerated atherosclerosis. Longitudinal assessment of cIMT could be useful to better evaluate the individual CV risk of these patients improving their prognostic stratification.
