While presenting the demographic and laboratory features of the patients diagnosed with PA, this study also aims to provide possible appropriate tools to differentiate the PA cases from early rheumatoid arthritis (ERA). Methods: Sixty-five patients with PA (male/female: 43/22) from 15 different rheumatology clinics and 50 consecutive patients with ERA (male/female: 13/37) fulfilling the 2010 American College of Rheumatology (ACR) criteria for the diagnosis if the RA from Gaziantep Rheumatology Early Arthritis Trial (GREAT) as controls who were diagnosed at least 12 months before, were enrolled into study. Results: Mean ages of the patients with PA and ERA were 50.2 +/- 15.3, and 42.7 +/- 12.3, respectively, and the mean ages of the patients with PA were significantly higher than the ERA. Unlike the ERA patients, in our case series PA was predominantly observed among males. Oligoarthritis was significantly higher in solid tumors in contrast to ERA (P = 0.001). Polyarthritis and symmetric arthritis were significantly higher in the ERA group in contrast to all malignancies (P = 0.001). Rheumatoid factor (RF) and anticyclic citrullinated peptide antibody (anti-CCP) positivity were significantly higher in the ERA group (each P = 0.001). Lactic dehydrogenase levels of hematologic malignancies were significantly higher than other groups (each, P = 0.001). Conclusions: ERA patients had more symmetric joint involvement than PA; laboratory markers could be also an alternative where there is high RF and anti-CCP positivity with antibody levels among the ERA patients. Finally, the demographic features can be used as differentiatingÖğe Factors That May be Associated with Uveitis in Patients with Spondyloarthritis(Wiley, 2018) Kasifoglu, Timucin; Bilge, Nazife Sule Yasar; Kiraz, Sedat; Ertenli, Ihsan; Kucuksahin, Orhan; Dalkilic, Ediz; Bes, Cemal[Abstract Not Available]Öğe The First Effect of COVID-19 Pandemic on Starting Biological Disease Modifying Anti-Rheumatic Drugs: Outcomes from the TReasure Real-Life Database(Aves, 2022) Kanitez, Nilufer Alpay; Kiraz, Sedat; Dalkilic, Ediz; Kimyon, Gezmis; Mercan, Ridvan; Karadag, Omer; Bes, CemalObjective: The coronavirus disease 2019 pandemic has been resulting in increased hospital occupancy rates. Rheumatic patients cannot still reach to hospitals, or they hesitate about going to a hospital even they are able to reach. We aimed to show the effect of the first wave of coronavirus disease 2019 pandemic on the treatment of biological disease-modifying anti-rheumatic drugs in patients with rheumatoid arthritis or spondyloarthritis. Methods: Patients were divided into three groups as follows: pre-pandemic (Pre-p: starting on biological disease-modifying anti-rheumatic drug therapy for the first time within 6 months before March 11, 2020); post-pandemic A (Post-p A: starting on biological disease-modifying anti-rheumatic drug therapy for the first time within the first 6 months after March 11, 2020); post-pandemic B (Post-p B: starting on biological disease-modifying anti-rheumatic drug therapy for the first time within the second 6 months). Results: The number of rheumatoid arthritis patients in the Post-p A and B groups decreased by 51% and 48%, respectively, as compared to the Pre-p group similar rates of reduction were also determined in the number of spondyloarthritis patients. The rates of tofacitinib and abatacept use increased in rheumatoid arthritis patients in Post-p period. Conclusion: The number of rheumatoid arthritis and spondyloarthritis patients starting on biological disease-modifying anti-rheumatic drugs for the first time decreased during the first year of the coronavirus disease 2019 pandemic.Öğe GO-BEYOND: a real-world study of persistence of golimumab in patients with axial spondyloarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis in Turkey(Future Medicine Ltd, 2021) Akar, Servet; Kalyoncu, Umut; Dalkilic, Ediz; Emmungil, Hakan; Aziz, Ayten; Esen, Yasemin; Koc, TubaAim: To evaluate the retention rate of golimumab (GLM) in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and axial spondyloarthritis (ax-SpA). Materials & methods: Patients had received/were receiving GLM as their first or second biological drug for at least 3 months. We recorded demographic and clinical data, data on drug continuation and disease activity. Patients were classified as biologic-naive and biologic-experienced. Results: The study included 60 RA and 269 ax-SpA patients. At month 24, the retention rates were 67.2 and 57.1% (biologic-naive and biologic-experienced RA) and 74.8 and 80.4% (anti-TNF-naive and -experienced ax-SpA). No significant differences in retention were observed between the biologic-naive and -experienced groups for either disease. Conclusion: The results of this study confirm the effectiveness of GLM in the treatment of RA and axSpA with good retention rates at 2 years in a real-world setting in Turkey.Öğe Impacts of Anti-TNF Treatment on Improvement in Work Place and Household Productivity in Patients with Psoriatic Arthritis(Wiley, 2016) Karadag, Omer; Dalkilic, Ediz; Onat, Ahmet Mesut; Kucuksahin, Orhan; Kasifoglu, Timucin; Kisacik, Bunyamin; Pamuk, Omer Nuri[Abstract Not Available]Öğe In the era of disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs, how close are we to treating rheumatoid arthritis without the use of glucocorticoids?(Springer Heidelberg, 2021) Yagiz, Burcu; Coskun, Belkis Nihan; Pehlivan, Yavuz; Dalkilic, Ediz; Kiraz, Sedat; Yazisiz, Veli; Kucuksahin, OrhanWe wanted to see how close we could get to our goal of treating rheumatoid arthritis (RA) without the use of glucocorticoids (GCs) in the disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs (DMARDs) era using real-life data. Established in 2017, the TReasure database is a web-based, prospective, observational cohort for Turkey. As of May 2019, there were 2,690 RA patients recorded as receiving biologic and targeted synthetic DMARDs (bDMARDs and tsDMARDs) therapy. At the start of the bDMARDs or tsDMARDs, patients with follow-up visits of at least 3 months were registered. At the time of registration and the last visit, doses of GCs were recorded and it was determined if the target dose of <= 7.5 mg was achieved. During registration and follow-up, 23.4% of the patients did not receive GCs and 76.5% of the patients received GCs at any time. GCs could be stopped after 59 (25-116) months in 28.4% of these patients, but 71.6% of patients were still using GC. The target GC dose could not be achieved in 18.2% of these patients (n = 352). The rate of continuing to use GC was significantly higher in women, in the elderly, those with rheumatoid factor (RF) positive, with higher Visual Analog Scale (VAS) pain and Disease Activity Score (DAS)-28. The initial GC dose of >= 7.5 mg/day was found to be crucial in not reaching the GC target dose (p < 0.001, OR 39.0 (24.1-63.2)). The initial GC dose of >= 7.5 mg/day, female gender, age, RF positivity, high DAS28, and VAS pain level were all highly related for GC continuation. Despite the use of DMARDs, our data revealed that we are still far from achieving our goal of treating RA without using steroids.Öğe Leflunomide As a Concomitant DMARD Choice for the Biological Treatment Era of Rheumatoid Arthritis(Wiley, 2018) Kimyon, Gezmis; Kiraz, Sedat; Ertenli, Ihsan; Kucuksahin, Orhan; Dalkilic, Ediz; Bes, Cemal; Kanitez, Nilufer Alpay[Abstract Not Available]Öğe The predictors of paradoxical reactions, especially psoriasis, to biologic therapy-findings from the TReasure database: a 5-year follow-up study(Oxford Univ Press, 2023) Yagiz, Burcu; Lermi, Nihal; Coskun, Belkis N.; Dalkilic, Ediz; Kiraz, Sedat; Erden, Abdulsamet; Ertenli, IhsanObjectives The objectives of this study were to assess the clinical characteristics, predictive factors, and practical algorithms of paradoxical reactions (PRs), specifically paradoxical psoriasis (PP). Methods The TReasure database is a web-based prospective observational cohort comprised of patients with RA and SpA from 17 centres around Turkey since 2017. A cohort study and a case-control study nestled within the cohort were identified. Results In total, 2867 RA and 5316 SpA patients were evaluated. The first biologic agent was found to have caused PRs in 60% of the 136 patients (1.66%) who developed the PRs. The median time interval between the PRs and biological onset was 12 months (range 1-132 months, mean 21 months). The most common types of PP, constituting 92.6% of PRs, were pustular (60.3%) and palmoplantar (30.9%). Adalimumab (30.9%), infliximab (19%) and etanercept (17.4%) were the most common agents causing the PP. In the treatment of most PP patients (73.2%), switching biologic agents was favoured, with TNF inhibitor (TNFi) chosen in 46.03% and non-TNFi in 26.9% of cases. The three most frequently selected drugs were etanercept (24.6%), secukinumab (9.5%) and adalimumab (8.7%). Only 5.17% of patients who switched to another TNFi showed progression. The odds ratios (s) for SSZ, HCQ, and LEF use were significantly higher in RA controls than in PP patients (P = 0.033, OR = 0.15; P = 0.012, OR = 0.15; and P = 0.015, OR = 0.13, respectively). In the PP group with SpA, the number of smokers was significantly higher (P = 0.003, OR: 2.0, 95% CI: 1.05, 3.81). Conclusion Contrary to expectations based on earlier research suggesting that paradoxical reactions develop with the class effect of biological agents, the response of patients who were shifted to another TNFi was favourable.Öğe Preferences of inflammatory arthritis patients for biological disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs in the first 100 days of the COVID-19 pandemic(Tubitak Scientific & Technological Research Council Turkey, 2021) Kalyoncu, Umut; Pehlivan, Yavuz; Akar, Servet; Kasifoglu, Timucin; Kimyon, Gezmis; Karadag, Omer; Dalkilic, EdizBackground/aim: To evaluate treatment adherence and predictors of drug discontinuation among patients with inflammatory arthritis receiving bDMARDs within the first 100 days after the announcement of the COVID-19 pandemic. Materials and methods: A total of 1871 patients recorded in TReasure registry for whom advanced therapy was prescribed for rheumatoid arthritis (RA) or spondyloarthritis (SpA) within the 3 months (6-9 months for rituximab) before the declaration of COVID-19 pandemic were evaluated, and 1394 (74.5%) responded to the phone survey. Patients' data regarding demographic, clinical characteristics and disease activity before the pandemic were recorded. The patients were inquired about the diagnosis of COVID-19, the rate of continuation on bDMARDs, the reasons for treatment discontinuation, if any, and the current general disease activity (visual analog scale, [VAS]). Results: A total of 1394 patients (493 RA [47.3% on anti-TNF] patients and 901 SpA [90.0% on anti-TNF] patients) were included in the study. Overall, 2.8% of the patients had symptoms suggesting COVID-19, and 2 (0.15%) patients had PCR-confirmed COVID-19. Overall, 18.1% of all patients (13.8% of the RA and 20.5% of the SpA; p = 0.003) discontinued their bDMARDs. In the SpA group, the patients who discontinued bDMARDs were younger (40 [21-73] vs. 44 years [20-79]; p = 0.005) and had higher general disease activity; however, no difference was relevant for RA patients. Conclusion: Although the COVID-19 was quite uncommon in the first 100 days of the pandemic, nearly one-fifth of the patients discontinued bDMARDs within this period. The long-term effects of the pandemic should be monitored.Öğe UVEITIS RELATED FACTORS IN PATIENTS WITH SPONDYLOARTHRITIS(Bmj Publishing Group, 2019) Bilge, Nazife Sule Yasar; Kasifoglu, Timucin; Kiraz, Sedat; Ertenli, Ali Ihsan; Kucuksahin, Orhan; Dalkilic, Ediz; Bes, Cemal[Abstract Not Available]Öğe Uveitis-related Factors in Patients With Spondyloarthritis: TReasure Real-Life Results(Elsevier Science Inc, 2021) Bilge, Nazife Sule Yasar; Kalyoncu, Umut; Atagunduz, Pamir; Dalkilic, Ediz; Pehlivan, Yavuz; Kucuksahin, Orhan; Bes, CemalPURPOSE: Spondyloarthritis (SpA) is a group of diseases with overlapping skeletal and extra-articular features. Acute anterior uveitis (AAU) is the most common extra-articular manifestation of SpA. The relation between AAU and SpA is well defined in the current literature. Our study aims to analyze the frequency and factors associated with AAU in different forms of SpA in a large nationwide cohort of Turkish SpA patients. DESIGN: Retrospective cohort study. METHODS: The data were obtained from the TReasure database, which compiles data from records of the web-based Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA) and SpA patients treated with biological disease-modifying anti-rheumatismal drugs from different regions of Turkey. The clinical characteristics of SpA and uveitis are recorded. RESULTS: Data of the 4,297 SpA patients were included in the study. Overall, 475 of 4,297 patients (11.0%) had experienced 1 or more episodes of uveitis. SpA patients with older age (P<.001), a smoking history (P=.004), delayed diagnosis (P=.001), longer disease duration (P<.001), arthritis (P<.001), positive HLA-B27 (P<.001), a family history of SpA (P<.001), and radiographic damage (presence of sacroiliitis, syndesmophytes, bamboo spine, hip involvement) (P<.001 for all) more commonly had uveitis. On the other hand, uveitis was less prevalent in patients with psoriasis and psoriatic arthritis (P<.001 for both). CONCLUSION: Uveitis may be the key feature leading to SpA diagnosis. Patients with radiographic damage and long disease duration have an increased risk for uveitis in both male and female SpA patients. Patients with uveitis should be referred to a rheumatologist for a thorough evaluation of SpA. ((C) 2021 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.)
