Abstract Objective: To assess factors associated with emotional changes and Hyperactivity/Inattention (HI) motivated by COVID-19 quarantine in adolescents with immunocompromising diseases. Methods: A cross-sectional study included 343 adolescents with immunocompromising diseases and 108 healthy adolescents. Online questionnaires were answered including socio-demographic data and self-rated healthcare routine during COVID-19 quarantine and validated surveys: Strengths and Difficulties Questionnaire (SDQ), Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI), Pediatric Quality of Life Inventory 4.0 (PedsQL4.0). Results: The frequencies of abnormal emotional SDQ scores from adolescents with chronic diseases were similar to those of healthy subjects (110/343 [32%] vs. 38/108 [35%], p = 0.548), as well as abnormal hyperactivity/inattention SDQ scores (79/343 [23%] vs. 29/108 [27%], p = 0.417). Logistic regression analysis of independent variables associated with abnormal emotional scores from adolescents with chronic diseases showed: female sex (Odds Ratio [OR = 3.76]; 95% Confidence Interval (95% CI) 2.00–7.05; p < 0.001), poor sleep quality (OR = 2.05; 95% CI 1.08–3.88; p = 0.028) and intrafamilial violence during pandemic (OR = 2.17; 95% CI 1.12–4.19; p = 0.021) as independently associated with abnormal emotional scores, whereas total PedsQL score was inversely associated with abnormal emotional scores (OR = 0.95; 95% CI 0.93–0.96; p < 0.0001). Logistic regression analysis associated with abnormal HI scores from patients evidenced that total PedsQL score (OR = 0.97; 95% CI 0.95–0.99; p = 0.010], changes in medical appointments during the pandemic (OR = 0.39; 95% CI 0.19–0.79; p = 0.021), and reliable COVID-19 information (OR = 0.35; 95% CI 0.16–0.77; p = 0.026) remained inversely associated with abnormal HI scores. Conclusion: The present study showed emotional and HI disturbances in adolescents with chronic immunosuppressive diseases during the COVID-19 pandemic. It reinforces the need to promptly implement a longitudinal program to protect the mental health of adolescents with and without chronic illnesses during future pandemics.

RESUMO CONTEXTO: As doenças inflamatórias intestinais (DII), que englobam a doença de Crohn e a colite ulcerativa, são doenças inflamatórias crônicas do trato gastrointestinal que frequentemente se manifestam em adolescentes e adultos jovens (AAJ). As DII são caracterizadas por episódios de doença ativa intercalados com períodos de remissão, e sua atividade se correlaciona inversamente com a qualidade de vida relacionada à saúde (QVRS). OBJETIVO: Este estudo teve como objetivo determinar se AAJ em remissão ou com baixa atividade de DII exibiria QVRS semelhante à de indivíduos saudáveis pareados por idade, e se fatores demográficos da doença poderiam afetar a QVRS usando um instrumento de medidas de desfecho relatadas pelo paciente. MÉTODOS: Este estudo envolveu apenas AAJ com DII, com baixa atividade. Esta pesquisa incluiu cinco clínicas multidisciplinares de dois Hospitais Universitários: Divisões de Gastroenterologia Pediátrica, Gastroenterologia, Coloproctologia, Reumatologia Pediátrica e Adolescentes, São Paulo, Brasil. Um total de 59 AAJ com DII (13-25 anos de idade) e 60 AAJ controle saudáveis (13-25 anos de idade) responderam os questionários Pediatric Quality of Life Inventory 4.0 e 36-Item Short-Form Health Survey e as escalas visuais de dor. Dados demográficos, manifestações extra intestinais, tratamentos e desfechos da doença de Crohn e a colite ulcerativa foram avaliados. RESULTADOS: AAJ com DII e os controles saudáveis foram grupos semelhantes com relação à média de idade (18,63 [13,14-25,80] vs 20,5 [13,68-25,84] anos, P=0,598), quanto à proporção de pacientes do sexo feminino (42% vs 38%, P=0,654), e quanto à porcentagem da classe socioeconômica brasileira média elevada/ média (94% vs 97%, P=0,596). Os escores escola/trabalho foram significativamente mais baixos nos AAJ com DII do que nos controles saudáveis (70 [10-100] vs 75 [5-100], P=0,037). O escore ‘percepção geral de saúde’ foi significativamente mais baixo nos AAJ com DII do que no agrupamento controle saudável (50 [10-80] vs 0 [25-90], P=0,0002). As escalas de avaliação visual de dor foram semelhantes entre os dois grupos (2 [0-10] vs 3 [0-9], P=0,214). Nenhuma associação entre QVRS e parâmetros clínicos e demográficos foi identificada entre os pacientes com DII. CONCLUSÃO: AAJ com baixa atividade das DII relataram baixa QVRS nos domínios da escola/trabalho e percepção geral da saúde, o que destaca um critério de incapacidade nesta vulnerável população.
ABSTRACT BACKGROUND: Inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD), comprising Crohn’s disease and ulcerative colitis, are chronic inflammatory diseases of the gastrointestinal tract that often have their onset among adolescents and young adults (AYA). IBD are characterized by episodes of active disease interspersed with periods of remission, and its activity is inversely correlated with health-related quality of life (HRQL). OBJECTIVE: This study aimed to determine whether AYA in remission or with low IBD activity would exhibit HRQL similar to that of age-matched healthy individuals, and whether demographic and disease factors could affect HRQL using a ‘patient-reported outcome’ instrument. METHODS: This study enrolled only AYA with IBD, with low activity. This research included five multidisciplinary clinics of two academic hospitals: Paediatric Gastroenterology, Gastroenterology, Coloproctology, Paediatric Rheumatology and Adolescent divisions, São Paulo, Brazil. A total of 59 AYA with IBD (age, 13-25 years) and 60 healthy AYA (age, 13-25 years) completed the Pediatric Quality of Life Inventory 4.0 and 36-Item Short-Form Health Survey questionnaires and the visual analogue scale (VAS) for pain. Demographic data, extra-intestinal manifestations, treatment, and outcomes regarding CD and UC were evaluated. RESULTS: AYA with IBD and healthy controls were similar with respect to median ages (18.63 [13.14-25.80] years vs 20.5 [13.68-25.84] years, P=0.598), proportion of female sex (42% vs 38%, P=0.654), and percentage of upper middle/middle Brazilian socioeconomic classes (94% vs 97%, P=0.596). The school/work score was significantly lower in AYA with IBD than in healthy controls (70 [10-100] vs 75 [5-100], P=0.037). The ‘general health-perception’ score was significantly lower in AYA with IBD than in healthy controls (50 [10-80] vs 0 [25-90], P=0.0002). The median VAS, FACES pain rating scale, and total VAS scores were similar between the two groups (2 [0-10] vs 3 [0-9], P=0.214). No association between HRQL and clinical and demographic parameters was identified among IBD patients. CONCLUSION: AYA with low IBD activity reported poor HRQL in school/work and general health perception domains, which highlights a disability criterion in this vulnerable population.

OBJECTIVE: To assess the possible factors that influence sleep quality in adolescents with and without chronic immunosuppressive conditions quarantined during the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic. METHODS: This cross-sectional study included 305 adolescents with chronic immunocompromised conditions and 82 healthy adolescents. Online surveys were completed, which included questions on socio-demographic data and self-rated healthcare routine during COVID-19 quarantine and the following validated questionnaires: the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI), Pediatric Quality of Life Inventory 4.0 (PedsQL4.0), and Pediatric Outcome Data Collection Instrument (PODCI). RESULTS: The median current age [14 (10-18) vs. 15 (10-18) years, p=0.847] and frequency of female sex (62% vs. 58%, p=0.571) were similar in adolescents with chronic conditions compared with healthy adolescents. The frequency of poor sleep quality was similar in both groups (38% vs. 48%, p=0.118). Logistic regression analysis, including both healthy adolescents and adolescents with chronic conditions (n=387), demonstrated that self-reported increase in screen time (odds ratio [OR] 3.0; 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.3-6.8; p=0.008) and intrafamilial violence report (OR 2.1; 95% CI 1.2-3.5; p=0.008) were independently associated with poor sleep quality in these adolescents. However, the PODCI global function score was associated with a lower OR for poor sleep quality (OR 0.97; 95% CI 0.94-0.99; p=0.001). Further logistic regression, including only adolescents with chronic conditions (n=305), demonstrated that self-reported increase in screen time (OR 3.1; 95% CI 1.4-6.8; p=0.006) and intrafamilial violence report (OR 2.0; 95% CI 1.2-3.4; p=0.011) remained independently associated with poor quality of sleep, whereas a lower PODCI global function score was associated with a lower OR for sleep quality (OR 0.96; 95% CI 0.94-0.98; p<0.001). CONCLUSION: Self-reported increases in screen time and intrafamilial violence report impacted sleep quality in both healthy adolescents and those with chronic conditions. Decreased health-related quality of life was observed in adolescents with poor sleep quality.

OBJECTIVES: To prospectively evaluate demographic, anthropometric and health-related quality of life (HRQoL) in pediatric patients with laboratory-confirmed coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) METHODS: This was a longitudinal observational study of surviving pediatric post-COVID-19 patients (n=53) and pediatric subjects without laboratory-confirmed COVID-19 included as controls (n=52) was performed. RESULTS: The median duration between COVID-19 diagnosis (n=53) and follow-up was 4.4 months (0.8-10.7). Twenty-three of 53 (43%) patients reported at least one persistent symptom at the longitudinal follow-up visit and 12/53 (23%) had long COVID-19, with at least one symptom lasting for >12 weeks. The most frequently reported symptoms at the longitudinal follow-up visit were headache (19%), severe recurrent headache (9%), tiredness (9%), dyspnea (8%), and concentration difficulty (4%). At the longitudinal follow-up visit, the frequencies of anemia (11% versus 0%, p=0.030), lymphopenia (42% versus 18%, p=0.020), C-reactive protein level of >30 mg/L (35% versus 0%, p=0.0001), and D-dimer level of >1000 ng/mL (43% versus 6%, p=0.0004) significantly reduced compared with baseline values. Chest X-ray abnormalities (11% versus 2%, p=0.178) and cardiac alterations on echocardiogram (33% versus 22%, p=0.462) were similar at both visits. Comparison of characteristic data between patients with COVID-19 at the longitudinal follow-up visit and controls showed similar age (p=0.962), proportion of male sex (p=0.907), ethnicity (p=0.566), family minimum monthly wage (p=0.664), body mass index (p=0.601), and pediatric pre-existing chronic conditions (p=1.000). The Pediatric Quality of Live Inventory 4.0 scores, median physical score (69 [0-100] versus 81 [34-100], p=0.012), and school score (60 [15-100] versus 70 [15-95], p=0.028) were significantly lower in pediatric patients with COVID-19 at the longitudinal follow-up visit than in controls. CONCLUSIONS: Pediatric patients with COVID-19 showed a longitudinal impact on HRQoL parameters, particularly in physical/school domains, reinforcing the need for a prospective multidisciplinary approach for these patients. These data highlight the importance of closer monitoring of children and adolescents by the clinical team after COVID-19.

Resumo Objetivo: Avaliar o envolvimento do esôfago (EE) na população com esclerodermia localizada juvenil (ELJ) e a possível associação entre essa manifestação gastrointestinal e dados demográficos, características clínicas, exames laboratoriais, tratamentos e desfechos. Métodos: Durante 31 anos, 5.881 pacientes com doenças reumáticas foram acompanhados em nossa Divisão de Reumatologia Pediátrica. O EE foi definido pela presença de sintomas (disfagia para sólidos/líquidos, azia, regurgitação esofágica, náuseas/vômitos e epigastralgia) e confirmado com pelo menos um exame que revelou EE: radiografia contrastada com bário, endoscopia digestiva alta e pHmetria esofágica de 24 horas. Resultados: Observou-se ELJ em 56/5.881 pacientes (0,9%), principalmente do subtipo morfeia linear. O EE foi observado em 23/56 (41%) dos pacientes com ELJ. Oito (35%) dos 23 pacientes com ELJ com EE eram sintomáticos e apresentavam azia (5/8), disfagia para sólidos e líquidos (3/8), náuseas e epigastralgias (1/8). A frequência de quaisquer manifestações extracutâneas cumulativas (calcinose, artrite/artralgia, envolvimento do sistema nervoso central, pneumonite intersticial, nefrite mesangial e/ou arritmias) foi significativamente maior em pacientes com ELJ com EE em comparação com aqueles sem essa complicação (56% vs. 24%, p = 0,024). Não foi evidenciada diferença nos dados demográficos, subtipos de ELJ e quaisquer manifestações extracutâneas entre os grupos (p > 0,05). A frequência de uso de metotrexato foi significativamente maior em pacientes com ELJ com EE em comparação com aqueles sem EE (52% vs. 12%, p = 0,002). O perfil de autoanticorpos (anticorpos antinucleares, anti-SCL-70, fator reumatoide, anticentrômero, anticardiolipina, anti-Ro/SSA e anti-La/SSB) foi semelhante nos dois grupos (p > 0,05). Conclusões: Este estudo demonstrou que o EE foi frequentemente observado em pacientes com ELJ, principalmente naqueles assintomáticos com o subtipo linear da doença. O EE ocorreu em pacientes com ELJ com outras manifestações extracutâneas e exigiu tratamento com metotrexato.
Abstract Objective: To assess esophageal involvement (EI) in juvenile localized scleroderma (JLS) population and the possible association between this gastrointestinal manifestation and demographic data, clinical features, laboratory exams, treatments and outcomes. Methods: For a period of 30 years, 5881 patients with rheumatic diseases were followed in our Pediatric Rheumatology Division. EI was defined by the presence of symptoms (solid/liquid dysphagia, heartburn, esophageal regurgitation, nausea/vomiting and epigastralgia) and confirmed by at least one EI exam abnormality: barium contrast radiography, upper gastrointestinal endoscopy and 24-hour esophageal pH-monitoring. Results: JLS was observed in 56/5881 patients (0.9%), mainly linear morphea subtype. EI was observed in 23/56(41%) of JLS patients. Eight(35%) of 23 EI patients with JLS were symptomatic and presented heartburn(5/8), solid and liquid dysphagia(3/8), nausea and epigastralgia(1/8). The frequency of any cumulative extracutaneous manifestations (calcinosis, arthritis/arthralgia, central nervous system, interstitial pneumonitis, mesangial nephritis and/or arrhythmia) was significantly higher in JLS patients with EI compared to those without this complication (56% vs. 24%, p = 0.024). No differences were evidenced in demographic data, JLS subtypes and in each extracutaneous manifestation in both groups (p > 0.05). The frequency of methotrexate use was significantly higher in JLS patients with EI compared to those without (52% vs. 12%, p = 0.002). Autoantibody profile (antinuclear antibodies, anti-SCL-70, rheumatoid factor, anticentromere, anti-cardiolipin, anti-Ro/SSA and anti-La/SSB) was similar in both groups (p > 0.05). Conclusions: Our study demonstrated that EI was frequently observed in JLS patients, mainly in asymptomatic patients with linear subtype. EI occurred in JLS patients with other extracutaneous manifestations and required methotrexate therapy.
