Abstract

Abstract : Background: Climatological conditions and ethnicity impact on the course of the disease in systemic lupus erythematosus patients. Objectives: We carry out a study to analyze cutaneous manifestations in SLE patients from Argentina and Spain. Methods: Patients data from Spanish Rheumatology Society Lupus Registry (RELESSER) and Argentina Rheumatology Society Lupus Registry (RELESSAR) were retrospectively analyzed for presence of cutaneous lesions (alopecia, photosensitivity, malar rash, discoid lesions, oral ulcers and subacute lesions). RELESSER-T and RELESSAR-T are multicenter, hospital-based registries, with retrospective cross-sectional collection of data about patients with SLE attending Spanish and Argentinian rheumatology services from the public national health system. Data about climatological conditions throughout the Spanish and Argentinian geography were provided by the Spanish Meteorological Agency and Argentine Meteorological Services. Results: A total of 5604 patients were included, median age 44.6 ± 15.3, 90.4 % female. Current smokers were 28, 9%. Other climatological, geographical, biological and clinical data are shown in table 1 . In the multivariable model, the presence of cutaneous lesion were significantly associated with temperature OR 1.116 (95% CI:1.042-1.196 p=0, 002), altitude OR 1.001 (95% CI:1.000-1.001, p=0.012), hemolytic anemia OR 1.401 (95% CI:1.017-1.931 p=0.039) and serositis OR 1.509 (95% CI:1.215-1.875 p=0.000). Negative associations were observed between females OR 0.392 (95% CI:0.297-0.518, p=0.000), latitude OR 0.994 (95% CI:0.988-0.999, p=0.000), oceanic climate OR 0.566 (95% CI:0.381-0.842, p=0.005), leukopenia OR 0.790 (95% CI:0.643-0.970, p=0.025), renal disorder OR 0.761 (95% CI:0.600-0.966, p=0.025), glucocorticoids treatment OR 0.571 (95% CI:0.456-0.715, p=0.000) and antimalarial drugs OR 0.439 (95% CI:0.342-0.563, p=0.000). Conclusion: In the current analysis, taking RELESSAR and RELESSER data together, we observe positive association between higher temperature and skin lesion and negative association with living in southern hemisphere latitudes.
