Physical capacity in performing daily activities is reduced in scleroderma patients with early lung involvement

Abstract: A reduction of daily physical activity is already present even in early stages of lung involvement in SSc, characterized by unaltered spirometry and well-preserved nutritional status.

“…The incidence and prevalence of SSc and its subgroups varies greatly, depending on ethnicity and world regions, with an average incidence per million of between 4 and 43 individuals, and a prevalence between 70 and 340 per million has been reported (Barnes & Mayes, 2012). Female gender predominates with a general female/male ratio of 6 : 1 (Walker et al, 2007).…”

“…Reduced physical activity has been observed in patients with lcSSc with PAH compared with patients without PAH (Mainguy, Provencher, Maltais, Malenfant, & Saey, 2011), and in patients with SSc with early lung involvement (Battaglia et al, 2017). Physical inactivity may lead to muscle weakening (Turesson & Matteson, 2007) and impairment in oxygen transport and consumption (Blom-Bülow et al, 1983).…”

“…However, irrespective of the imaging pattern on HRCT, progression and prognosis of disease depend mainly on the severity of the already established functional deterioration [144,145] . Pulmonary function tests in these patients usually show a restrictive pattern with low lung diffusion capacity and exercise oxygen desaturation, though exercise tests are not usually performed in scleroderma patients due to low performance in lower arm mobility [146,147] . On chest auscultation 'Velcro sounds' are commonly audible [148] .…”

“…Recentemente, foi publicado um estudo com dados da região de Campo Grande, onde verificou-se uma incidência de 11,9 casos/milhão/ano (HORIMOTO et al, 2017). Pacientes com ES apresentam fibrose da pele, o que leva a limitação na amplitude de movimento (ADM) articular, e prejuízo na realização das atividades de vida diária (ADM) e na função física (TAS et al, 2012;CUOMO et al, 2010;BATTAGLIA et al, 2017). A extensão do acometimento da pele é um marcador da gravidade da doença, e se correlaciona negativamente com a sobrevida (CLEMENTS et al, 2000).…”

“…No presente estudo, observamos resultados similares, com diminuição significativa do valor do mRSS após o transplante. A melhora foi mais pronunciada A atividade física é frequentemente reduzida em pacientes com ES, possivelmente devido à complexa apresentação clínica da doença, que afeta pele, articulações, músculos, bem como órgãos internos, especialmente pulmões e coração (OLIVEIRA et al, 2007;BATTAGLIA et al, 2017). O TC6 é uma avaliação submáxima de exercício, que reflete a habilidade em realizar atividades de vida diária, sendo frequentemente usado para avaliar capacidade funcional e resposta a um tratamento (CRAPO et al, 2002).…”
