    Abstract Polyarteritis nodosa (PAN), also known as panarteritis nodosa, represents a form of necrotizing vasculitis that predominantly affects medium-sized vessels, although it is not restricted to them and can also involve smaller vessels. The clinical presentation is heterogeneous and characterized by a significant number of patients exhibiting general symptoms, including asthenia, fever, and unintended weight loss. Although PAN can involve virtually any organ, it preferentially affects the skin, nervous system, and the gastrointestinal tract. Orchitis is a rare but specific manifestation of PAN. The absence of granulomas, glomerulonephritis, and anti-neutrophil cytoplasmic antibodies serves to distinguish PAN from other types of vasculitis. Major complications consist of hemorrhagic and thrombotic events occurring in mesenteric, cardiac, cerebral, and renal systems. Historically, PAN was frequently linked to hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection, but this association has dramatically changed in recent years due to declining HBV prevalence. Current epidemiological research often identifies a connection between PAN and genetic syndromes as well as neoplasia. This article provides a comprehensive review of PAN, specifically focusing on the progression of its clinical manifestations over time.

    Title translation Biologics and systemic lupus erythematosous : new insights and perspectives.
    Abstract Systemic lupus erythematosus is a complex autoimmune disease that remains challenging to treat. Recent advances in the understanding of the pathogenesis of SLE pave the way for the evaluation of biologic medicine. The most promising therapeutic targets in SLE are those that interfere with B cells count or normal function, interferon inhibitors, JAK inhibitors and biologicals that alter the cytokines imbalance that characterizes SLE. Recent phase 3 clinical trials have evaluated the role of belimumab in lupus nephritis and the usefulness of anifrolumab in the treatment of moderate to severe SLE. Many more trials are currently underway and may improve the level of care of patients with SLE in the near future.

    Title translation Autoimmune diseases in the context of pandemic COVID-19.
    Abstract Patient suffering from autoimmune diseases (AID) typically have an increased risk of infection, which is attributed to the disease itself, but also to immunosuppressive drugs (IS) and comorbidities. During the current COVID-19 outbreak, the way to manage these diseases remains elusive. Limited data is currently available on AID and IS in the context of this new coronavirus infection. To date, there is no evidence to support an increase in complications of COVID-19 in these patients. In addition, certain drugs that are commonly used to treat AID could be part of the therapeutic arsenal used in COVID-19. The purpose of this article is to review the unique aspects of patients with AID during the COVID-19 outbreak.

    Title translation Management of the antiphospholipid syndrome in adults.
    Abstract The antiphospholipid syndrome (APS) is a complex autoimmune -disease characterized by the expression of antiphospholipid -antibodies (APL) and a variety of clinical presentation. The latest classification defines APS by the occurrence of vascular thrombosis and/or typical obstetrical morbidity together with persistently -detectable APL at least 12 weeks apart. The latest recommendation proposes a risk profile based on the type and titer of APL detected, in order to guide the intensity of prophylactic measures. Based on current knowledge, novel oral anticoagulants should not be used in APS, particularly in patients with a high-risk APL profile or arterial thrombosis. Beyond the mere aspect of anticoagulant treatment, immunomodulatory approaches to the APS such as hydroxychloroquine are under investigation.

    Abstract Determining disease activity in systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) patients is challenging and limited by the lack of reliable biomarkers. Abnormally activated B cells play a key role in the pathogenesis of SLE, but their measure in clinical practice is currently not recommended. Here, we studied peripheral B cells to identify a valid biomarker. We analyzed peripheral B cells in a discovery cohort of 30 SLE patients compared to 30 healthy controls (HC) using mass cytometry and unsupervised clustering analysis. The relevant B cell populations were subsequently studied by flow cytometry in a validation cohort of 63 SLE patients, 28 autoimmune diseases controls and 39 HC. Our data show an increased frequency of B cell populations with activated phenotype in SLE compared to healthy and autoimmune diseases controls. These cells uniformly lacked the expression of CD21 and CD27. Measurement of CD21
