“…We report 92 inpatient cases in Abidjan. This result is in line with sub-Saharan data [1]- [6]. However, the frequency of CRDs may be underestimated, mainly because of their diagnostic complexity and the lack of awareness of these diseases among the population and certain health practitioners…”

“…The number of cases of CRD varies from country to country in sub-Saharan Africa [1]- [6]. Seven hundred and twenty-six cases were reported in 10 years in Senegal, 90 cases in 6.5 years in Congo-Brazzaville, 290 cases in 9 years in Togo, and 339 cases in 18 months in Guinea [3] [4] [5] [6].…”

“…Chronic rheumatic disease is a group of diseases characterized by abnormal and persistent activation of the immune system, leading to impaired multi-organ function [1] [2] [3]. These diseases are less common than degenerative pathologies, but nonetheless occupy a significant place in rheumatological practice [1] [2] [3] [4] [5]. In sub-Saharan Africa, the overall frequency of CRD varies widely from country to country, ranging from 90 cases in 6.5 years in Congo-Brazzaville, for example, to 802 cases in 14 years in Burkina Faso [1]- [6].…”

Objective: To study the epidemiological and diagnostic features of chronic rheumatic disease (CRD) in a black population in sub-Saharan Africa. Patients and Methods: Retrospective descriptive study over eight years (January 2005 to December 2012) of patients seen for CRD in rheumatology hospitalization at the CHU de Cocody in Abidjan, Côte d'Ivoire. Results: Of 3147 hospitalized patients, 92 had CRD, a frequency of 2.9%. The mean age of patients was 43.50 ± 15.6 years (extremes: 10 to 79 years). The sex ratio was 0.08 (7 men and 85 women). The socio-economic level was low in 44 patients (47.8%), medium in 44 patients (47.8%), and high in 4 patients (4.4%). The reasons for consultation were polyarthritis (64.1%), polyarthralgia (30.4%), and oligoarthritis (5.4%). The mean duration of symptomatology was 19 months (range: 3 to 20 years). The mean length of hospital stay was 14.2 ± 7.7 days (range: 2 to 36 days). The CRD observed were: rheumatoid arthritis (59.8%), systemic lupus erythematosus (23.9%), mixed connective tissue disease (6.5%), undifferentiated connective tissue disease (3.3%), polymyositis (3.3%), systemic scleroderma (2.2%), and systemic vasculitis (1%). Conclusion: CRD is not uncommon in rheumatology hospitals in Abidjan. Diagnostic delays are long, and rheumatoid arthritis and systemic lupus erythematosus are the most frequently encountered conditions.

Objectives: Therapeutic compliance can be defined as the degree of adequacy between a patient's behaviour and his doctor's recommendations. Non-adherence to treatment has serious consequences in terms of morbidity and mortality. Our aim was to assess adherence among patients treated for chronic inflammatory rheumatism in Lomé. Patients and Methods: This was a multicentre cross-sectional study conducted from January 2015 to December 2021. Patients aged 18 years or older, treated in the rheumatology departments of the Sylvanus Olympio University Hospital or the Bè Hospital during the study period, were included if they were diagnosed with chronic inflammatory rheumatism and started on disease-modifying therapy. Adherence was assessed using the Compliance Questionnaire Rheumatology 19 questionnaire, with a threshold for good compliance set at 80%. Results: Out of 13,214 patients received, 159 suffered from chronic inflammatory rheumatism (hospital frequency 1.5%), and 60 met the inclusion criteria for our study. There were 55 women (91.7%) and 5 men (8.3%), giving a sex-ratio of 1/11. The mean age was 49.5 ± 13.5 years (extremes: 19 and 78 years). Rheumatoid arthritis (68.3%) was the most common rheumatic disease, followed by undefined rheumatic diseases (16.6%) and spondyloarthritis (8.3%). Average compliance with treatment was 76.9% ± 12.4% (extremes 29.8 and 91.2). There was no statistically significant difference according to the type of rheumatism. Conclusion: Overall compliance was poor, with a Compliance Questionnaire Rheumatology 19 of less than 80%.
