          Abstract

          RESUMEN Objetivo: Describir las características clínicas, así como los desenlaces maternos y perinatales en gestantes con síndrome antifosfolípido en una institución de alta complejidad. Materiales y métodos: Estudio descriptivo retrospectivo que evaluó gestantes con síndrome antifosfolípido según criterios de Sidney o según criterio de reumatólogo entre 2010 y 2016. Se excluyeron aquellos casos con trombofilias hereditarias, incompetencia cervical o con antecedente de hepatitis B, hepatitis C y virus de inmunodeficiencia humana. La información se recolectó a partir de la revisión de historias clínicas. Resultados: Se incluyeron 16 gestantes; 7 (43,8%) pacientes tenían antecedente de aborto, 5 (71,4%) en más de una ocasión; estas pérdidas ocurrieron después de la semana 10. Nueve (56,3) tenían síndrome antifosfolípido asociado a lupus eritematoso sistémico; el principal marcador serológico fue el anticoagulante lúpico en 12 (75%) gestantes. Dos (12,5%) pacientes tenían triple positividad y 6 (37,5%) doble positividad de anticuerpos antifosfolípidos. Las complicaciones obstétricas más frecuentes fueron: rompimiento prematuro de membranas (28,6%), preeclampsia (13,3%) e insuficiencia placentaria (11,8%), las cuales se presentaron más en pacientes con lupus eritematoso sistémico, así como en aquellas con triple y doble positividad de anticuerpos antifosfolípidos. Conclusiones: En esta cohorte, el síndrome antifosfolípido obstétrico estuvo asociado a lupus eritematoso sistêmico en la mayoría de los casos; sin embargo, éste último estaba en remisión. Los peores desenlaces obstétricos se observaron en pacientes con síndrome antifosfolípido y lupus, o en los casos que tenían triple o doble positividad de anticuerpos antifosfolípidos.

          ABSTRACT Objective: To describe the clinical characteristics, as well as the maternal and perinatal outcomes in pregnant women with the antiphospholipid syndrome in a reference institution. Materials and methods: A retrospective descriptive study was carried out in order to evaluate pregnant women with antiphospholipid syndrome according to Sydney criteria or rheumatologist criteria between 2010 and 2016. Cases with hereditary thrombophilia, cervical incompetence, history of hepatitis B, hepatitis C, and human immunodeficiency virus were excluded. The information on sociodemographic and clinical variables was collected from the review of medical records. Results: Sixteen pregnant women were included; seven (43.8%) patients had a history of abortion, five (71.4%) on more than one occasion; these losses occurred after week ten. Nine (56.3) had antiphospholipid syndrome associated with systemic lupus erythematosus. The main serological marker was lupus anticoagulant in 12 (75%) pregnant women. Two (12.5%) patients had triple positivity and six (37.5%) double positivity of antiphospholipid antibo-dies. The most frequent obstetric complications were premature rupture of membranes (28.6%), pre-eclampsia (13.3%), and placental insufficiency (11.8%), which were more com-mon in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus, as well as in those with triple and double antiphospholipid antibody positivity. Conclusions: Obstetric antiphospholipid syndrome was associated with systemic lupus erythematosus in the majority of cases; however, the latter was in remission. The worst obstetric outcomes were observed in patients with this association or in cases with triple or double antiphospholipid antibody positivity.

          International consensus statement on an update of the classification criteria for definite antiphospholipid syndrome (APS).

          New clinical, laboratory and experimental insights, since the 1999 publication of the Sapporo preliminary classification criteria for antiphospholipid syndrome (APS), had been addressed at a workshop in Sydney, Australia, before the Eleventh International Congress on antiphospholipid antibodies. In this document, we appraise the existing evidence on clinical and laboratory features of APS addressed during the forum. Based on this, we propose amendments to the Sapporo criteria. We also provide definitions on features of APS that were not included in the updated criteria.

            Antiphospholipid syndrome: clinical and immunologic manifestations and patterns of disease expression in a cohort of 1,000 patients.

            To analyze the clinical and immunologic manifestations of antiphospholipid syndrome (APS) in a large cohort of patients and to define patterns of disease expression. The clinical and serologic features of APS (Sapporo preliminary criteria) in 1,000 patients from 13 European countries were analyzed using a computerized database. The cohort consisted of 820 female patients (82.0%) and 180 male patients (18.0%) with a mean +/- SD age of 42 +/- 14 years at study entry. "Primary" APS was present in 53.1% of the patients; APS was associated with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) in 36.2%, with lupus-like syndrome in 5.0%, and with other diseases in 5.9%. A variety of thrombotic manifestations affecting the majority of organs were recorded. A catastrophic APS occurred in 0.8% of the patients. Patients with APS associated with SLE had more episodes of arthritis and livedo reticularis, and more frequently exhibited thrombocytopenia and leukopenia. Female patients had a higher frequency of arthritis, livedo reticularis, and migraine. Male patients had a higher frequency of myocardial infarction, epilepsy, and arterial thrombosis in the lower legs and feet. In 28 patients (2.8%), disease onset occurred before age 15; these patients had more episodes of chorea and jugular vein thrombosis than the remaining patients. In 127 patients (12.7%), disease onset occurred after age 50; most of these patients were men. These patients had a higher frequency of stroke and angina pectoris, but a lower frequency of livedo reticularis, than the remaining patients. APS may affect any organ of the body and display a broad spectrum of manifestations. An association with SLE, the patient's sex, and the patient's age at disease onset can modify the disease expression and define specific subsets of APS.

              Antiphospholipid syndrome.

              The antiphospholipid syndrome causes venous, arterial, and small-vessel thrombosis; pregnancy loss; and preterm delivery for patients with severe pre-eclampsia or placental insufficiency. Other clinical manifestations are cardiac valvular disease, renal thrombotic microangiopathy, thrombocytopenia, haemolytic anaemia, and cognitive impairment. Antiphospholipid antibodies promote activation of endothelial cells, monocytes, and platelets; and overproduction of tissue factor and thromboxane A2. Complement activation might have a central pathogenetic role. Of the different antiphospholipid antibodies, lupus anticoagulant is the strongest predictor of features related to antiphospholipid syndrome. Therapy of thrombosis is based on long-term oral anticoagulation and patients with arterial events should be treated aggressively. Primary thromboprophylaxis is recommended in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus and probably in purely obstetric antiphospholipid syndrome. Obstetric care is based on combined medical-obstetric high-risk management and treatment with aspirin and heparin. Hydroxychloroquine is a potential additional treatment for this syndrome. Possible future therapies for non-pregnant patients with antiphospholipid syndrome are statins, rituximab, and new anticoagulant drugs. Copyright © 2010 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
