Objective Joint involvement in SLE is frequent but underestimated. This study used contrasted MRI to describe the prevalence of joint and tendon involvement in hand and wrist of SLE patients, including those without symptoms. The results showed a high prevalence of inflammatory musculoskeletal alterations in SLE patients.
Objective Joint involvement in SLE is the most frequent manifestation and shows a wide heterogeneity. It has not a valid classification and it is often underestimated. Subclinical inflammatory musculoskeletal involvement is not well known. We aim to describe the prevalence of joint and tendon involvement in hand and wrist of SLE patients, either with clinical arthritis, arthralgia or asymptomatic and compare it with healthy subjects using contrasted MRI. Methods SLE patients fulfilling SLICC criteria were recruited and classified as follows: group (G) 1: hand/wrist arthritis, G2: hand/wrist arthralgia, G3: no hand/wrist symptoms. Jaccoud arthropathy, CCPa and RF positivity, hand OA or surgery were excluded. Healthy subjects (HS) were recruited as controls: G4. Contrasted MRI of non-dominant hand/wrist was performed. Images were evaluated following RAMRIS criteria extended to PIP, Tenosynovitis score for RA and peritendonitis from PsAMRIS. Groups were statistically compared. Results A total of 107 subjects were recruited (G1: 31, G2:31, G3:21, G4:24). Any lesion: SLE patients 74.7%, HS 41.67%; P 0.002. Synovitis: G1: 64.52%, G2: 51.61%, G3: 45%, G4: 20.83%; P 0.013. Erosions: G1: 29.03%; G2: 54.84%, G3: 47.62%; G4: 25%; P 0.066. Bone marrow oedema: G1: 29.03%, G2: 22.58%, G3: 19.05%, G4: 0.0%; P 0.046. Tenosynovitis: G1: 38.71%; G2: 25.81%, G3: 14.29%, G4: 0.0%; P 0.005. Peritendonitis: G1: 12.90%; G2: 3.23%, G3: 0.0%, G4: 0.0%; P 0.07. Conclusion SLE patients have a high prevalence of inflammatory musculoskeletal alterations confirmed by contrasted MRI, even if asymptomatic. Not only tenosynovitis but peritendonitis is also present.
