EULAR recommendations for cardiovascular risk management in rheumatic and musculoskeletal diseases, including systemic lupus erythematosus and antiphospholipid syndrome

George C. Drosos et al.

Summary: This study developed recommendations for cardiovascular risk management in rheumatic and musculoskeletal diseases, emphasizing the importance of regular screening and management of modifiable CVR factors as well as patient education. The recommendations covered CVR prediction tools, interventions on traditional CVR factors, and interventions on disease-related CVR factors.

Assessing the validity of QRISK3 in predicting cardiovascular events in systemic lupus erythematosus

Lisa Zhu et al.

Summary: This study assessed the validity of QRISK3 in predicting cardiovascular risk in SLE patients compared to other risk models. The results showed that both QRISK3 and PREDICTS performed better than traditional risk scoring methods in predicting cardiovascular disease risk in SLE patients.

Anti-phospholipid antibodies do not predict damage in SLE patients in the 21st century-an observational study from the Lupus-Cruces cohort

Amaia Ugarte et al.

Summary: This study compared the influence of aPLs on global and cardiovascular damage in patients with SLE diagnosed before and after the year 2000. The results showed that the effects of aPL on damage accrual in SLE patients have been reduced over recent years, possibly due to the widespread use of HCQ and improved thromboprophylaxis.

Summary: The study compared the predictive capacity of QRISK3 and SCORE for subclinical carotid atherosclerosis in patients with SLE, finding that QRISK3 had a higher discrimination capacity than SCORE.

Cardiovascular disease risk and pathogenesis in systemic lupus erythematosus

Christopher B. Oliveira et al.

Summary: Patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) have a higher risk of cardiovascular diseases, and traditional risk factors cannot fully explain this increased risk. SLE-specific factors, such as immune dysregulation and inflammation, may contribute to the development of cardiovascular diseases in SLE patients.

Underperformance of clinical risk scores in identifying vascular ultrasound-based high cardiovascular risk in systemic lupus erythematosus

George C. Drosos et al.

Summary: The study aimed to evaluate the performance of eight clinical risk prediction scores in identifying SLE patients at high cardiovascular disease risk defined by atherosclerotic plaques. Results showed that most of the generic and SLE-adapted risk scores underestimated high CVD risk in patients with SLE.

The Relationship between Cardiovascular Risk Scores and Several Markers of Subclinical Atherosclerosis in an Asymptomatic Population

Ovidiu Mitu et al.

Summary: This study evaluated the relationship between multiple subclinical atherosclerosis parameters and several CV risk scores in asymptomatic individuals. The results showed that different risk scores were associated with markers of subclinical atherosclerosis, suggesting specific cut-off values for the risk scores to indicate the need for subclinical atherosclerosis assessment.

Manuel Francisco Ugarte-Gil et al.

Summary: This study confirmed associations between GC use and three specific damage items, suggesting that in treating patients with SLE, the goal should be to maximize the efficacy of GC while minimizing their harms.

Assessment of cardiovascular risk tools as predictors of cardiovascular disease events in systemic lupus erythematosus

Jagan Sivakumaran et al.

Summary: This study compared the performance of different cardiovascular risk prediction tools in predicting cardiovascular disease in patients with Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE). The results showed that modified Framingham Risk Score (mFRS) outperformed other tools, while SLE Cardiovascular Risk Equation (SLECRE) had the highest sensitivity but lowest specificity. Further research is needed to develop more accurate risk prediction tools for this population.
