APS NEPHROPATHY
              RECOMMENDATIONS
• 1. Routine performance of renal biopsy is not recommended in
  APS.

• 2. In APS patients with clinical and laboratory findings that
  suggest renal involvement (new onset of hypertension,
  proteinuria, hematuria or renal insufficiency), renal biopsy
  should be performed (Evidence level II).

• 3. In patients with APS nephropathy, especially in SLE and in
  the absence of other causes associated with similar lesions, aPL
  testing is recommended (Evidence level II).

• 4. In patients with APS nephropathy and persistently positive
  aPL, the diagnosis of APS should be considered, provided that
  other conditions resulting in similar renal lesions are excluded.
HEART VALVE LESIONS
              RECOMMENDATIONS

1.In patients with APS and previous thrombosis, mainly with
arterial involvement, a TTE is recommended (Evidence level II)

2.1.With normal valves and in the absence of atherosclerotic
factors, follow up controls might not be necessary.
2.2.If VHD exists, serial echocardiographic follow up controls are
warranted (1 prospective study) (Evidence level II)

3.1.No attempt to treat VHD with curative intention is
recommended (Evidence level II)
3.2. A trial of steroids might be considered in APS-related VHD
(Evidence level IV)
THROMBOCYTOPENIA
                 RECOMMENDATIONS

• 1. Multicentric, international, prospective long-term follow-up
  study of patients with ITP (APIgG, aPL, LAC, anti-β2GP-I…),
  thrombosis being the primary outcome.

• 2. International Registry of aPL-positive “ITP” patients
  (“Hematologic APS”).

• 3. We suggest that TCP may be incorporated as an isolated
  clinical criteria for APS.

SB3         When we use the logistic regression anlysis including age, precipitating factor and rate use of combinated therapy
            The precipitanting factor dissapeared.

            the mortality decrease in the second period was associated with the age and the higher rate use of combinated treatment.

            Likely the age is a statistical factor, because there is a little difference between two age.This difference is not enough for explaining so
            significant reduction of mortality

            Therefore the main reason for explaining the mortality decrese was the higher use rate of combinated therapy

            In other word the reduction of twenty percent of mortality from two thounsand and one depends on the higher use rate of combinated
            treatment wit AC+CS+PE and/or IVIG.

  • 33. APS NEPHROPATHY RECOMMENDATIONS • 1. Routine performance of renal biopsy is not recommended in APS. • 2. In APS patients with clinical and laboratory findings that suggest renal involvement (new onset of hypertension, proteinuria, hematuria or renal insufficiency), renal biopsy should be performed (Evidence level II). • 3. In patients with APS nephropathy, especially in SLE and in the absence of other causes associated with similar lesions, aPL testing is recommended (Evidence level II). • 4. In patients with APS nephropathy and persistently positive aPL, the diagnosis of APS should be considered, provided that other conditions resulting in similar renal lesions are excluded.
  • 34. HEART VALVE LESIONS RECOMMENDATIONS 1.In patients with APS and previous thrombosis, mainly with arterial involvement, a TTE is recommended (Evidence level II) 2.1.With normal valves and in the absence of atherosclerotic factors, follow up controls might not be necessary. 2.2.If VHD exists, serial echocardiographic follow up controls are warranted (1 prospective study) (Evidence level II) 3.1.No attempt to treat VHD with curative intention is recommended (Evidence level II) 3.2. A trial of steroids might be considered in APS-related VHD (Evidence level IV)
  • 35. THROMBOCYTOPENIA RECOMMENDATIONS • 1. Multicentric, international, prospective long-term follow-up study of patients with ITP (APIgG, aPL, LAC, anti-β2GP-I…), thrombosis being the primary outcome. • 2. International Registry of aPL-positive “ITP” patients (“Hematologic APS”). • 3. We suggest that TCP may be incorporated as an isolated clinical criteria for APS.

  • 60. Diapositiva 58 SB3 When we use the logistic regression anlysis including age, precipitating factor and rate use of combinated therapy The precipitanting factor dissapeared. the mortality decrease in the second period was associated with the age and the higher rate use of combinated treatment. Likely the age is a statistical factor, because there is a little difference between two age.This difference is not enough for explaining so significant reduction of mortality Therefore the main reason for explaining the mortality decrese was the higher use rate of combinated therapy In other word the reduction of twenty percent of mortality from two thounsand and one depends on the higher use rate of combinated treatment wit AC+CS+PE and/or IVIG. sbucciarelli; 05/03/2006
