Abstract:
Objective:A meta-analysis was conducted to investigate the risk factors of interstitial lung disease in patients with RA to provide a reliable reference for clinical practice.Methods:Publications of the China Knowledge Network, Vipshop, Wanfang, China Biomedical Literature Database, EMbase, PubMed, and Cochrane Library databases were searched to obtain literature on cohort studies and case-control studies for risk factors for RA complicated with interstitial lung disease from the time of database creation until December 31, 2022. Literature screening, information extraction, and final quality evaluation were performed independently by two investigators. The extracted data were analyzed using RevMan 5.3 software.Results:A total of 31 studies with a total of 26 747 patients were included in this study, of which 4 799 patients(17.94%) were patients with RA complicated with interstitial lung disease. A total of 12 risk factors were obtained included: advanced age [ OR (95% CI) =1.07(1.04, 1.09), P<0.001], high age at onset [ OR (95% CI) =2.11(1.17, 3.82), P=0.010], male [ OR (95% CI) =1.95(1.34, 2.84), P<0.001], long duration of disease [ OR (95% CI) =1.10(1.08, 1.13), P<0.001], smoking [ OR (95% CI) =2.47(1.57, 4.04), P<0.001], high disease activity [ OR (95% CI) =(1.21, 2.54), P=0.003), cough [ OR (95% CI) =6.10 (2.40, 15.52), P<0.001], decreased pulmonary carbon monoxide diffusing capacity [ OR (95% CI) =0.93(0.89, 0.96), P<0.001], and high titer anti-CCP antibody [ OR (95% CI) =1.14(1.03, 1.26), P=0.010], high titer RF [ OR (95% CI) =2.37(1.70, 3.29), P<0.001], high level of immunoglobulin A [ OR (95% CI) =1.26 (1.09, 1.46), P=0.002] and high level of glycoprotein antigen 125 [ OR (95% CI) =3.66 (1.81, 7.41), P<0.001]. Conclusion:The existing evidence have shown that advanced age, high age at onset, male, long disease duration, smoking, high disease activity, cough, decreased pulmonary carbon monoxide diffusing capacity, high titer anti-CCP antibody and RF, high level of immunoglobulin A and high level of glycoprotein antigen 125 are the main risk factors for interstitial lung disease in patients with rheumatoid arthritis. However, the evidence of Raynaud's phenomenon and tumor marker CA153 as risk factors for RA complicated with interstitial lung disease is not strong, and further high-quality prospective cohort studies are needed.
