Medically Assisted Fertilization Techniques in Systemic Immunoreumatologic Diseases

Rheumatic DiseasesFertility Disorders4 more

Systemic rheumatological diseases often occur in young women of childbearing age and can therefore impact fertility. There are diseases, such as arthritis, which present no contraindication to assisted reproductive techniques (ARTs), because there is no influence on the disease itself if the disease activity at conception is stable. On the other hand, patients suffering from connective tissue diseases, primarily Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE) and patients suffering from primary or SLE-related Anti-Phospholipid Antibody Syndrome (APS), deserve more targeted therapies both in the context of ARTs and in the ensuing pregnancy. To evaluate the response to ARTs in patients with systemic rheumatological diseases, both in terms of reactivation of the underlying pathology and in terms of ARTs outcome.

Autoimmune and Autoinflammatory Genetics Study

VEXAS SyndomeAutoinflammatory Disease2 more

This is an exploratory natural history protocol that will enroll patients with known genetic diseases, such as VEXAS syndrome, or as yet undiagnosed disorders of inflammation with the goal of improving our understanding of disease processes. Blood, saliva, hair, nail, or buccal samples may be collected for genetic analysis, blood samples will be obtained for immunologic and other functional studies, and a small number of subjects may undergo skin biopsy.

Observational Pharmaco-Epidemiology Research & Analysis

Chronic DiseaseHIV/AIDS5 more

Greater advances are needed in two separate but related areas in healthcare: 1) the Clinical Decision Support Systems that complement the EHR use in support of routine patient care, population management and disease management; and 2) the use of the point-of-care observational data from the provider-patient encounter that support realworld medical research and healthcare quality measure assessment. Real-world evaluations of treatments of chronic diseases in the context of comorbid conditions and special populations (minorities, women, mentally ill, and those with addiction) are limited. The purpose of the OPERA database is to help address this unmet need in clinical research.

Distress Related to the Feeling of Loss of Dignity in Patients With Rheumatic Diseases

Rheumatic DiseasesDignity3 more

Rheumatic diseases (RD) are an important group of different clinical entities and specific diseases that affect a significant proportion of the world population. In Mexico, the RD have a relevant representation in the adult population. Dignity is a construct characterized by the representation of the self, of the self from others' point of view, and of the interaction of the individual with the environment and social context. Living with a chronic illness can threaten experiences of dignity for the sick person and their families. Various studies have demonstrated the direct impact of the disease on dignity in terms of physical and psychological symptoms and loss of function. Some efforts have been made to operationalize the concept of perceived dignity in the context of chronic diseases The perceived dignity of patients and the distress related to the feeling of loss of dignity (DRFLD) are outcomes that the patient can report and that the doctors can evaluate to be incorporated into the considerations of comprehensive care. Both outcomes are closely related, perceived dignity refers to a complex phenomenon, while distress related to the feeling of loss of dignity identifies those patients with a perceived dignity compromise of such magnitude that it generates anguish.

Post-Chikungunya Rheumatism - Rheumatology Follow-up of Patients After 15 Years

Chikungunya

Reunion Island was struck by a severe Chikungunya outbreak in 2005-2006. Three hundred and seven Chikungunya patients were evaluated by 4 rheumatologists 2 months after the initial infection (RHUMATOCHIK study). Eighty-three percents still reported joint pain and 43% joint swelling in telephone interviews after 32 months (Bouquillard et al., 2018). The primary objective of the present study is to assess and classify precisely persistent Chi-related joint diseases after 15 years, in a second rheumatology examination.

Post Covid-19 Vaccination Development or Flare of ARD

COVID-19Vaccination; Infection1 more

Many patients develop autoimmune diseases after covid-19 vaccination, whether related to the vaccination or not, is still under study. This study will describe potential flare of ARD after COVID-19 vaccination, whether it leads to activity or new MSK manifestations development.

Rheumatic IMmune-Related Adverse Events in Patients Treated With Immune Check Point Inhibitors

Immune-related Adverse Event

RIMRA is a prospective, longitudinal, observational study including patients with de novo symptoms of rheumatic disease or a flare of established rheumatic disease after treatment with an immune check point inhibitor. The aim of the study is to describe the clinical presentation, disease course and outcome of rheumatic irAEs in patients treated with immune check point inhibitors.

RhEumatiC Heart diseAse Genetics

Rheumatic Heart Disease

Rheumatic fever (RF) is an autoimmune disease that is mediated by the cellular and humoral immune response that follows an untreated pharyngeal Streptococcus pyogenes infection. The most serious complication is rheumatic heart disease (RHD), one of the most common problems facing children and young adults worldwide, which leads to chronic valvular lesions. It is estimated that 60% of all acute rheumatic fever cases will develop RHD. The pathogenesis of RHD is complex with both environmental and genetic factors contributing to its etiology. The investigators know little about the genetic etiology, cellular events and modifiers of progression of RHD, and there exists a wide range of disease severity and progression to severe valve pathology. Thus, the investigators will study the genetics of RHD in Rwanda, a country with a very high incidence of RHD, using a combination of next-generation targeted exome capture, transcriptomics, and expressed quantitative trait loci (eQTL) analysis.
