Abstract

Objectives: To assess the prevalence of endocrine dysfunction in patients with JIA and identify potential contributory factors for growth and sexual development.

Methods: A prospective observational study was conducted between July 2021 to January 2023, recruited 107 children of JIA fulfilling the revised ILAR classification criteria with disease duration > 6 months, attending Rheumatology department in KGMU, India. Demographic, clinical (anthropometric), and serological (including hormonal) evaluations were assessed at baseline. Growth velocity was recorded after one year. Mann-Whitney U test, chi-square test, and Fisher's exact t test were applied during statistical analysis.

Results: 107 JIA patients were enrolled with a M: F ratio of 2.06:1 (72 boys & 35 girls) with ERA being the most frequent subtype (51.4%). Mean age was 13 (± 4) years with a disease duration of 33 (± 24) months. Mean glucocorticoid intake was 2.17 (± 5.41) mg/day at baseline. 20.6% children were stunted, 22.4% were underweight and 25.2% had low BMI. Stunted children were more likely to have early onset (p = 0.015) & high GH level (p = 0.013). Underweight children had longer disease (p = 0.047) and more damage (p = 0.006). Children with weight z < -2 have high GH and low IGFBP3. Low BMI group had high disease activity, damage, and poor quality of life & functional state (p = < 0.01). Delayed puberty was noticed only in 2.8% of children. Girls with low Estradiol level had longer exposure to corticosteroids. Slower growth velocity was observed in 22.4% of children without any identifiable cause.

Conclusion: One third of JIA patients experience growth and pubertal disturbances, primarily due to altered GH-IGF1 axis.

青少年特发性关节炎患者的内分泌功能障碍。
目的:评估JIA患者内分泌功能障碍的患病率,并确定生长和性发育的潜在影响因素。方法:于2021年7月至2023年1月进行前瞻性观察研究,招募107名在印度KGMU风湿病科就诊的JIA患儿,符合修订后的ILAR分类标准,病程bb60 6个月。在基线时进行人口统计学、临床(人体测量学)和血清学(包括激素)评估。一年后记录生长速度。统计分析采用Mann-Whitney U检验、卡方检验和Fisher确切t检验。结果:纳入107例JIA患者,M: F比为2.06:1(男72例,女35例),其中ERA是最常见的亚型(51.4%)。平均年龄13(±4)岁,病程33(±24)个月。基线时平均糖皮质激素摄入量为2.17(±5.41)mg/天。20.6%的儿童发育迟缓,22.4%的儿童体重不足,25.2%的儿童体重指数低。发育迟缓儿童发病早(p = 0.015)和GH水平高(p = 0.013)的可能性更大。体重过轻的儿童患病时间更长(p = 0.047),损害更大(p = 0.006)。体重z < -2的儿童生长激素高,IGFBP3低。低BMI组疾病活动度、损伤程度高,生活质量和功能状态差(p =)。结论:1 / 3的JIA患者存在生长和青春期障碍,主要是由于GH-IGF1轴改变。
