Risk predictors for adverse COVID-19 outcomes in Latin American patients with autoimmune rheumatic diseases: A multicentre study in Ecuador and Mexico
Introduction/objectives
The understanding of COVID-19 progression among patients with autoimmune rheumatic diseases (SARDs) in Latin America remains limited. This study aimed to identify risk predictors associated with poor outcomes of COVID-19 in patients with SARDs.
Materials and methods
An observational multicentre study including patients with SARDs from Ecuador and Mexico.
Results
A total of 103 patients (78% women), aged 52.5 ± 17.7 years, were enrolled. The most prevalent SARDs were rheumatoid arthritis (59%) and systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE; 24%). Severe COVID-19 was observed in 28% of patients at admission, 43% experienced complications during follow-up, and 8% ultimately died. Mortality rates were highest in patients with antiphospholipid syndrome (27%) or SLE (20%). Poor prognostic factors included acute respiratory distress syndrome (odds ratio [OR] = 17.07), severe COVID-19 at admission (OR = 11.45), and presence of SLE (OR = 4.62). In multivariate analysis, SLE emerged as the sole predictor of mortality (OR = 15.61).
Conclusions
Patients with SARDs in Latin America face significant risks of adverse COVID-19 outcomes, with SLE being a major risk factor for mortality.
