Evaluación del riesgo cardiovascular en pacientes con espondiloartritis predominantemente axial

Evaluación del riesgo cardiovascular en pacientes con espondiloartritis predominantemente axial

Abstract

RESUMEN: La presente tesis confirma la existencia en la espondilitis anquilosante (EA) de un proceso de aterogénesis acelerada equiparable al de otras enfermedades inflamatorias crónicas. Dicho proceso no fue observado sin embargo en la espondiloartritis axial no radiológica, probablemente por su inferior respuesta inflamatoria. Estos hallazgos fueron objetivados mediante 2 trabajos a través del estudio ultrasonográfico de placas carotideas y espesor íntima-media carotídea tanto en pacientes como en controles sanos. La psoriasis y la proteína-C reactiva superior a 3 mg/L al diagnóstico se mostraron asociados a las placas carotídeas. En un tercer estudio observamos que en torno al 20% y 60% respectivamente de los pacientes con EA considerados de bajo y moderado riesgo cardiovascular (CV) por las escalas de riesgo CV tenían hallazgos ecográficos de muy alto riesgo (placas carotídeas). A continuación, con el propósito de identificar la mayor parte de ellos, diseñamos un modelo diagnóstico combinando el uso del SCORE y de la ecografía carotídea.

ABSTRACT: The present dissertation confirms the existence of a process of accelerated atherosclerosis in ankylosing spondylitis (AS), as occurs in other inflammatory diseases. However, this process was not observed in non-radiographic axial spondyloarthritis, probably because of its inferior inflammatory response. These findings were obtained through 2 studies, which assessed the intima media thickness and the presence of atherosclerotic plaques by performing carotid ultrasound in both patients and healthy controls. Psoriasis and C-reactive protein levels > 3mg/L at diagnosis were associated with carotid plaques. In a third study we observed that around 20% and 60% of AS patients with low and intermediate cardiovascular (CV) risk according to different CV risk algorithms had ultrasonographic findings of very high CV risk (carotid plaques). With the aim to identify most of them, we designed a diagnostic model combining the use of the SCORE and carotid ultrasound.
