    Abstract Background: Neonatal-onset multi-system inflammatory disease (NOMID), a rare autosomal dominantly inherited disease, belongs to a growing spectrum of autoinflammatory diseases, is characterized by urticarial rash, arthropathy, and chronic aseptic meningitis, and is associated with mutations in the cold-induced autoinflammatory gene, CIAS1, the gene that encodes the protein, cryopyrin. As little is known about the anesthetic considerations of the disease, we sought to identify the main features and respective anesthetic and perioperative implications of NOMID.
    Methods: We examined perianesthetic records of children with NOMID who were anesthetized for invasive diagnostic and therapeutic interventions between 2003 and 2006. In addition, we conducted an extensive literature review of the genetic, clinical, and biochemical abnormalities of the disease.
    Results: Seventeen children with NOMID (median age 8 yr, range 9 mo to 11 yr) were anesthetized for diagnostic and therapeutic procedures. All patients had neurological involvement, including increased intracranial pressure, chronic aseptic meningitis, and developmental delay; 7 had bony overgrowth, 15 ocular, and 14 otological manifestations of NOMID. Despite the complexity of the disease, the perioperative course was uncomplicated, and no serious adverse events were observed.
    Conclusions: This study is the first to investigate the anesthetic implications of NOMID, an autoinflammatory disease associated with arthropathy, recurrent fevers, urticarial rash, and chronic aseptic meningitis. While for the pediatric anesthesiologist, the presence of fever and aseptic meningitis might make the conduct of anesthetics for elective procedures less desirable, our findings suggest that without evidence of active infection, even in the presence of fever and chronic aseptic meningitis, general and regional anesthesia may be conducted in patients with NOMID without untoward complications.

    Abstract Objective: Insulin resistance (IR) and cardiovascular disease may share a common genetic background. We investigated the role of IR-associated ENPP1 K121Q polymorphism (rs1044498) on cardiovascular disease in high-risk individuals.
    Research design and methods: A prospective study (average follow-up, 37 months) was conducted for major cardiovascular events (myocardial infarction [MI], stroke, cardiovascular death) from the Gargano Heart Study (GHS; n = 330 with type 2 diabetes and coronary artery disease), the Tor Vergata Atherosclerosis Study (TVAS; n = 141 who had MI), and the Cardiovascular Risk Extended Evaluation in Dialysis (CREED) database (n = 266 with end-stage renal disease). Age at MI was investigated in cross-sectional studies of 339 type 2 diabetic patients (n = 169 from Italy, n = 170 from the U.S.).
    Results: Incidence of cardiovascular events per 100 person--years was 4.2 in GHS, 10.8 in TVAS, and 11.7 in CREED. Hazard ratios (HRs) for KQ+QQ versus individuals carrying the K121/K121 genotype (KK) individuals were 1.47 (95% CI 0.80-2.70) in GHS, 2.31 (95% CI 1.22-4.34) in TVAS, and 1.36 (95% CI 0.88-2.10) in CREED, and 1.56 (95% CI 1.15-2.12) in the three cohorts combined. In the 395 diabetic patients, the Q121 variant predicted cardiovascular events among obese but not among nonobese individuals (HR 5.94 vs. 0.62, P = 0.003 for interaction). A similar synergism was observed in cross-sectional studies, with age at MI being 3 years younger in Q121 carriers than in KK homozygotes among obese but not among nonobese patients (P = 0.035 for interaction).
    Conclusions: The ENPP1 K121Q polymorphism is an independent predictor of major cardiovascular events in high-risk individuals. In type 2 diabetes, this effect is exacerbated by obesity. Future larger studies are needed to confirm our finding.
