В исследование включено 42 пациента с достоверным диагнозом ССД, имевших признаки ИПЛ по данным МСКТ ОГК. Средний возраст пациентов составил 48±2 года; соотношение мужчин и женщин – 1:6, пациентов с диффузной и лимитированной формой болезни – 1,5:1 (25 и 17); средняя длительность ССД составляла 6,6±5,9 года. У всех пациентов на момент включения в исследование и в среднем через 29±15,3 мес (от 9 до 70 мес) в динамике на фоне терапии исследовались форсированная жизненная емкость легких (ФЖЕЛ), диффузионная способность легких (ДСЛ) и выполнялась МСКТ ОГК. Клинически значимым считалось изменение показателей ФЛТ на 10% и более. За период наблюдения пациенты получали терапию ритуксимабом (РТМ) в средней суммарной дозе 2,5±1,3 г (от 500 мг до 5 г) в сочетании с глюкокортикоидами в средней дозе 11,7±3,9 мг в пересчете на преднизолон; 10 (24%) пациентов также получали иммуносупрессанты.Анализ МСКТ ОГК проводился на 5 уровнях. На каждом уровне по 4-балльной системе (0–3 балла) оценивались выраженность изменений по типу «матового стекла», «медовых сот», ретикулярных изменений. Отдельно оценивалась динамика этих параметров и показателей ФЛТ у пациентов с поражением до 20% (группа А; 31%, n=13) и больше 20% (группа В, 69%, n=29) легочной ткани.Результаты и обсуждение. Полуколичественная оценка изменений по данным МСКТ ОГК у больных ССД с ИПЛ не выявила какой-либо динамики их общего счета. По субъективной оценке рентгенолога, положительная динамика при МСКТ отмечена у 8 (19%), отрицательная – у 11 (26%), не было динамики у 23 (55%) пациентов. Нарастание ФЖЕЛ на 10% и более выявлено у 16 (38%), снижение – у 3 (7%) пациентов. Положительная динамика ДСЛ выявлена у 5 (12%) пациентов, отрицательная – у 1 (2,4%). В среднем по группе наблюдались достоверное нарастание ФЖЕЛ с 73,2±18,8 до 82±21,8% (р=0,000031) и стабилизация ДСЛ. Ни у одного из пациентов с положительной МСКТ-динамикой не отмечено ухудшения ФЖЕЛ. На фоне терапии в группе А положительная динамика при МСКТ выявлена в 5 (38%), а в группе В – в 3 (10%) случаях (р=0,08), отрицательная динамика в группе А не отмечена ни в одном случае, в группе В – наблюдалась у 11(38%) пациентов. ФЖЕЛ клинически значимо увеличилась в группе А у 6 (46%) пациентов, в группе В – у 10 (34%), снизилась – у 1 (8%) и 2 (7%) соответственно. ФЖЕЛ была достоверно выше в группе А по сравнению с группой В как на момент включения в исследование (88,8±18,6 и 65,4±14,5%, р=0,0002), так и в отдаленном периоде (103,3±15,9 и 74,1±18,5%, р=0,0009), при этом на фоне терапии она статистически значимо увеличилась в обеих группах (р=0,016 и р=0,0014 соответственно). Медиана прироста ФЖЕЛ в группе А составила 10,2 [4,7; 21,9] %, в группе В – 5,9 [2,75; 14,7] % (р&gt;0,05). Средний счет «матового стекла» в группе А по сравнению с группой В был достоверно ниже как на момент включения в исследование (2,9±2,3 и 6,6±2,7; р=0,01), так и в отдаленном периоде (1,6±1,4 и 6,4±3,0 соответственно, р=0,000006) и имел тенденцию к уменьшению на фоне терапии. Аналогичная закономерность наблюдалась и при оценке ретикулярных изменений (4,3 ±2,7 и 8,7±3,2, р=0,001; 3,1±2,5 и 8,8±2,0 соответственно, р=0,00000). У больных группы В достоверно увеличился счет «медовых сот» (p=0,047).Заключение. Полуколичественная оценка структурных изменений по данным МСКТ ОГК у больных ССД с ИПЛ не выявила какой-либо динамики их общего счета за достаточно продолжительный период наблюдения. В то же время в группе больных с распространенностью ИПЛ &lt;20% достоверно снижался счет «матового стекла», а у больных при поражении &gt;20% легочной ткани достоверно нарастал счет «медовых сот». В целом по группе на фоне активной терапии происходило нарастание ФЖЕЛ и стабилизация ДСЛ, а медиана их прироста была выше при распространенности ИПЛ &lt;20%. Эти данные позволяют рассматривать исходную площадь легочного поражения в качестве потенциального предиктора ответа на терапию у больных ССД с ИПЛ.</p></abstract><trans-abstract xml:lang="en"><p>Multi-slice spiral computed tomography (MSCT) of the chest is the gold standard for confirming interstitial changes in the lung; but the role of this technique in evaluating the efficiency of therapy for systemic sclerosis (SSc) has not been fully defined.Objective: to assess the time course of changes in the lung according to chest MSCT findings and pulmonary function test (PFT) results in SSc patients and interstitial lung disease (ILD) during of active treatment.Subjects and methods. The investigation enrolled 42 patients with a reliable diagnosis of SSc who had signs of ILD, confirmed by chest MSCT. The patients’ mean age was 48±2 years; the male-to-female ratio was 1:6; that of diffuse-to-localized SSc patients was 1.5:1 (25 and 17); the mean duration of SSc was 6.6±5.9 years. Over time during therapy, forced lung capacity (FVC) and lung diffusing capacity (LDC) were studied and chest MSCT was performed in all the patients at the time of inclusion in the study and after an average of 29±15.3 months (9 to 70 months). A 10% or more change in PFT results was considered to be of clinical significance. During the follow-up period, the patients were treated with rituximab (RTM) at a mean total dose of 2.5±1.3 g (500 mg to 5 g) in combination with glucocorticoids at a mean dose of 11.7±3.9 mg calculated with reference to prednisolone; 10 (24%) patients also received immunosuppressants.Chest MSCT data were analyzed at 5 levels. The magnitude of changes following the pattern seen in frosted glass, honeycomb, and reticular alterations was estimated using a 4-point (0–3 points) scale at each level. The time course of changes in these parameters and PFT results was separately assessed in patients with less and more than 20% of lung tissue injury in Group A (n=13 (31%) and in Group B (n=29 (69%).Results and discussion. Semiquantitative assessment of changes as evidenced by chest MSCT in SSc patients with ILD did not reveal any changes in their total scores. According to a radiologist’s subjective assessment, there were positive and negative MSCT changes in 8 (19%) and 11 (26%) patients, respectively; the changes were present in 23 (55%) patients. A 10% and more increase in FVC was observed in 16 (38%) patients; its decrease was seen in 3 (7%). Positive and negative LDC changes were found in 5 (12%) and 1 (2.4%) patients, respectively. On average, the group showed a significant FVC increase from 73.2±18.8 to 82±21.8% (p=0.000031) and LDC stabilization. None of the patients with positive MSCT changes exhibited FVC deterioration. During therapy, Groups A and B had positive MSCT changes in 5 (38%) and 3 (10%) cases, respectively (p=0.08); no negative changes were noted in Group A while Group B had negative changes in 11 (38%) cases. FVC increased clinically significantly in 6 (46%) patients in Group A and in 10 (34%) in Group B; this decreased in 1 (8%) and 2 (7%) patients, respectively. FVC was significantly higher in Group A than that in Group B both at the time of study inclusion (88.8±18.6 and 65.4±14.5%, respectively; p=0.0002) and in the long-term period (103.3±15.9 and 74.1±18.5%; p=0.0009), while during therapy this increased statistically significantly in both groups (p=0.016 and p=0.0014, respectively). In Groups A and B, the median FVC increments were 10.2 (4.7; 21.9)% and 5.9 (2.75; 14.7)% , respectively (p&gt;0.05). The mean frosted glass score was significantly lower in Group A than that in Group B both at the time of study inclusion (2.9±2.3 and 6.6±2.7; p=0.01) and in the long-term period (1.6±1.4 and 6.4±3.0, respectively; p=0.000006) and this tended to decrease during therapy. A similar pattern was observed with reticular alterations(4.3±2.7 and 8.7±3.2 (p=0.001) and 3.1±2.5 and 8.8±2.0 (p&lt;0.00001), respectively). In Group B, honeycomb scores significantly increased (p=0.047).Conclusion. Semiquantitative assessment of structural changes by chest MSCT in SSc patients and ILD did not reveal any changes in their total scores for a sufficiently long follow-up period. At the same time, the frosted glass scores significantly decreased in patients with an ILD area of &lt;20%, and the honeycomb scores significantly increased in those with &gt;20% of lung tissue injury. During active therapy, the entire group displayed an increase in FVC, as well as LDC stabilization, and their median increments were higher in the patients with an ILD area of &lt;20%. These findings allow the baseline pulmonary injury area to be considered as a potential predictor for a response to therapy in SSc patients with ILD.</p></trans-abstract><kwd-group xml:lang="ru"><kwd>системная склеродермия</kwd><kwd>интерстициальное поражение легких</kwd><kwd>мультиспиральная компью- терная томография</kwd><kwd>функциональные легочные тесты</kwd></kwd-group><kwd-group xml:lang="en"><kwd>systemic sclerosis</kwd><kwd>interstitial lung disease</kwd><kwd>multi-slice spiral computed tomography</kwd><kwd>pulmonary function tests</kwd></kwd-group></article-meta></front><back><ref-list><title>References</title><ref id="cit1"><label>1</label><citation-alternatives><mixed-citation xml:lang="ru">Varga J, Abraham D.
