Background: Pulmonary manifestations are frequent in systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) with a frequency of 30-90% that depends on the cohort and the methods used for their identification. The association of this compromise with mortality highlights its importance and the need for biomarkers to adequately predict this complication. We describe the prevalence of pulmonary manifestations, and the clinic and immunoserological characteristics of 551 Colombian patients with SLE Objectives: We performed an observational and analytic study of a retrospective cohort with adult SLE patients who fulfilled the 2012 SLICC classification criteria and that had a history of at least 6 months of the disease. These patients were treated in a specialized center of rheumatology with presence in six cities of Colombia between 2015 and 2018. We excluded pregnant patients and those with incomplete data for our survey. The first clinic consult occurred between 2015 and 2018, being defined as moment one. The follow up one year later was defined as moment two. We obtained 710 registries that were potentially eligible and analyzed 465 patients at moment two after applying the exclusion criteria Methods: In 465 eligible patients, 20,5% had pulmonary compromise (93.8% female) with a median age of 42,4 years. The average SLICC Damage Index of 551 patients with SLE was 0,9 in women and 1.05 in men, while the average SDI of patients with pulmonary compromise was 1. The most frequent manifestation was pleural (14.3%), followed by Lupus pneumonitis (3.6%) and pulmonary hypertension (3.2%). Other manifestations and serological characteristics are recorded in Table 1. Of note, ANA homogeneous pattern was the most common (34.5%), anti-RNP positivity was 41.7%, anti-dsDNA positivity was 53.1% and 53.1% had hypocomplementemia. Results: The prevalence of pulmonary manifestations in our cohort was 20,5%, which is lower that in the previous described GLADEL cohort (28,4%). This could be explained by the regional differences of ethnicities in Latin America and in immune-serological profiles. Anti-RNP positivity was frequent (41.7%) and new pulmonary compromise for one year follow-up was rare. Of not, the mean damage index for our patients with pulmonary manifestations was 1, this could highlight the importance of this organ as a causa of higher damage accrual and mortality, which we will explore in the future Conclusion: The prevalence of pulmonary manifestations in our cohort was 20,5%, which is lower that in the previous described GLADEL cohort (28,4%).
