Clinical Characteristics and Classification Criteria Performance in a Single-Center Cohort of 114 Patients With Immunoglobulin G4–Related Disease

Abstract: Introduction/ObjectivesImmunoglobulin G4–related disease (IgG4-RD) is a heterogeneous fibroinflammatory condition. The 2019 American College of Rheumatology (ACR)/European League Against Rheumatism (EULAR) Classification Criteria for IgG4-RD were published to provide unified classification criteria in clinical research. The purpose of this study was to characterize demographics, disease manifestations, and treatments of patients with IgG4-RD and assess performance of the Classification Criteria in a heterogene… Show more

“…In this Latin American cohort, 66.7% of the patients met the 2019 AECC for IgG4-RD, which is lower than the sensitivity reported in the Japanese, Chinese, Spanish, US (Atlanta), South Korean, and Norwegian cohorts, but higher than the United Kingdom, Turkish, and Milan cohorts (Table 3). [2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13] Consistent with the aforementioned studies, the main reasons for not meeting the 2019 AECC were the lack of biopsy, mono-organic and atypical presentations, and the presence of exclusion criteria. Importantly, many of our patients had disease-specific autoantibodies that prevented them from meeting the criteria, even without evidence of concomitant autoimmune conditions.…”

“…1 In this regard, the 2019 AECC accomplished this goal, as demonstrated by a specificity higher than 97% in the original derivation and validation cohorts, and a specificity of 100% in the Japanese, United Kingdom, Atlanta, and the present Latin American cohort. 1,6,7,9 Our study is not without limitations. First, its historical nature and the use of different diagnostic algorithms by investigators rather than a standardized approach may have led to variability in patient assessments, such as incomplete assessment of IgG4 serum levels or complement, absence of biopsies, or incomplete imaging studies.…”
