    Abstract (1) Objective: To determine the diagnostic accuracy of major salivary gland ultrasonography (SGUS) in primary Sjogren's syndrome (SS), we used the Outcome Measures in Rheumatology Clinical Trials (OMERACT) scoring system on a large single-centre cohort of patients with sicca syndrome. (2) Method: We retrospectively collected the clinical, imaging and serological data of all the patients referred with a suspicion of SS who underwent SGUS and minor salivary glands biopsy. (3) Results: A total of 132 patients were included. The SGUS scores were correlated between the two sides (

    Abstract Idiopathic inflammatory myopathies are a group of rare, autoimmune, diseases typically involving striate muscle and also variously affecting several other systems or organs, such as joints, skin, lungs, heart and gastrointestinal tract. IIM are mainly characterised by subacute onset and chronic course and are burdened by significant morbidity and mortality. Despite the rarity of these conditions, several efforts have been undertaken in the last years to better understand their pathogenesis, as well as to achieve a more precise classification and to define the optimal therapeutic approach. The aim of this review is to provide an up-to-date digest of the most relevant studies published on this topic over the last year.

    Abstract Idiopathic inflammatory myopathies (IIM) are a heterogeneous group of disorders in which chronic inflammation of the skeletal muscle, leading to muscle weakness, is a common feature. Different phenotypes have been identified within the IIM spectrum based on extra-muscular manifestations, immunology, muscle histology, responsiveness to therapy, and prognosis. The pathogenesis, classification, treatment, and prognosis of the different IIM subtypes are subject to active discussion and research. This review highlights the most relevant literature published on this topic over the last year.

    Abstract The consequence of the lockdowns implemented to address the COVID-19 pandemic on human health damage due to air pollution and other environmental issues must be better understood. This paper analyses the effect of reducing energy demand on the evolution of environmental impacts during the occurrence of 2020-lockdown periods in Italy, with a specific focus on life expectancy. An energy metabolism analysis is conducted based on the life cycle assessment (LCA) of all monthly energy consumptions, by sector, category and province area in Italy between January 2015 to December 2020. Results show a general decrease (by ∼5% on average) of the LCA midpoint impact categories (global warming, stratospheric ozone depletion, fine particulate matter formation, etc.) over the entire year 2020 when compared to past years. These avoided impacts, mainly due to reductions in fossil energy consumptions, are meaningful during the first lockdown phase between March and May 2020 (by ∼21% on average). Regarding the LCA endpoint damage on human health, ∼66 Disability Adjusted Life Years (DALYs) per 100,000 inhabitants are estimated to be saved. The analysis shows that the magnitude of the officially recorded casualties is substantially larger than the estimated gains in human lives due to the environmental impact reductions. Future research could therefore investigate the complex cause-effect relationships between the deaths occurred in 2020 imputed to COVID-19 disease and co-factors other than the SARS-CoV-2 virus.

    Abstract Posterior reversible encephalopathy syndrome (PRES) is a potentially life-threatening condition, composed of focal neurologic symptoms and peculiar magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) findings suggestive for cerebral vasogenic edema. PRES has been predominantly associated with severe hypertension, but a concomitant inflammatory state, common in vasculitis, can contribute to worsening cerebral vasogenic edema towards cytotoxic edema, and it should be promptly treated with glucocorticoids (GC). Atypical cases of PRES should be suspected in cases of focal neurologic symptoms, associated with severe hypertension, and systemic inflammation. We report the first description of a patient with polymyalgia rheumatica and giant cell arteritis who developed PRES after GC discontinuation for arthroscopic surgery.

    Abstract Giant cell arteritis (GCA) is a large-vessel vasculitis, typically affecting the aorta and its branches. The involvement of vertebral and internal carotid arteries occurs in a limited number of cases, and stroke as a presenting symptom of GCA is extremely unusual: this subset of the disease has a poor prognosis and rarely responds to immunosuppression. We report the case of a 70-year-old woman, who presented to the Emergency Department for ischemic stroke, which appeared to be the first and only symptom of GCA. The prompt administration of steroids and tocilizumab (TCZ) led to clinical and radiological resolution, with no residual disability at 6-month follow-up. Our case-based review, highlighting the rarity of a large vessel vasculitis presenting only with a cerebrovascular accident, provides new evidence for the efficacy of TCZ even in more unusual varieties of GCA: in these cases, TCZ should be immediately prescribed, in order to prevent mortality and severe long-term morbidity.
