Objetivo Calcular la prevalencia y describir las principales características demográficas de la artritis reumatoide en adultos en Colombia. Materiales y métodos Estudio descriptivo de corte transversal en el que se tomaron los datos del Sistema Integral de Información de la Protección Social del Ministerio de Salud, durante los años 2012-2016. Resultados Se identificaron 248.995 casos, lo que permite calcular una prevalencia en mayores de 18 años del 0,52%, de los cuales el 80,7% son mujeres, con una relación mujer:hombre de 4,2:1, con mayor prevalencia entre el grupo etario de 70 a 74 años. Los departamentos con mayor número de casos son Bogotá D.C.

Material and methods A descriptive cross-sectional study was conducted using the data taken from the Integral Information System of Social Protection of the Ministry of Health during the years 2012–2016. Results A total of 248,995 cases were identified, which gave an estimated prevalence of 0.52% in those older than 18 years of age. The large majority (80.7% were women, with a female:male ratio of 4.2:1, and there was a higher prevalence in the 70–74 years age group. The departments with the highest number of cases were Bogota DC (64,121), followed by Antioquia (43,771), but the departments with the highest prevalence were Cesar (1.13%), Casanare (0.96%), and Risaralda (0.93%). Conclusions Demographic and epidemiological information on rheumatoid arthritis in Colombia is presented. A similar prevalence is reported in other studies from the region, like Brazil (0.46%), Venezuela (0.4%), or Peru (0.55%), but lower than Argentina (0.94%) or Mexico (1.6%)

Prevalence of inflammatory myopathies in Colombia: Demographic analysis from the National Health Registry 2012–2018

Introducción Utilizando datos del Ministerio de Salud de Colombia, realizamos un análisis de prevalencia y características demográficas generales de pacientes con miopatías inflamatorias, con datos del 2012 al 2018. Materiales y métodos Estudio descriptivo transversal basado en datos del Ministerio de Salud de Colombia. Utilizamos como términos clave los códigos diagnósticos del Manual Internacional de Enfermedades relacionados con el diagnóstico de miopatías inflamatorias. Resultados Se encontraron 12.401 individuos con diagnóstico de miopatía inflamatoria y se estimó una prevalencia global de 25,7 casos por 100.000 habitantes. Este diagnóstico es más frecuente en el grupo de edad de 65 a 69 años y en la población femenina (64%), con una relación mujer:hombre de 1,79:1. Además, calculamos una prevalencia de 15,1 casos por 100.000 habitantes para dermatomiositis y 7,3 casos por 100.000 habitantes para polimiositis (sobre una población total de 48.203). Existe poca información sobre la epidemiología de las miopatías en América Latina, y los registros son fundamentales para conocer su comportamiento en las poblaciones. En Colombia, el Ministerio de Salud recopila información del sistema de salud, que tiene una cobertura casi universal (alrededor del 95%). Esta información permite realizar estudios epidemiológicos sobre diferentes enfermedades. Para el presente estudio analizamos los datos disponibles sobre miopatías inflamatorias en Colombia. Conclusiones El presente trabajo describe por primera vez las características demográficas de las miopatías inflamatorias en la población colombiana con base en datos oficiales del Ministerio de Salud, donde la más frecuente fue la dermatomiositis y se evidenció un predominio en la población femenina.Introduction Using data from the Ministry of Health of Colombia, we performed an analysis of prevalence and general demographic characteristics of patients with inflammatory myopathies, with data from 2012 to 2018. Materials and methods A descriptive cross-sectional study based on data from the Ministry of Health of Colombia. We used as key terms the diagnostic codes of the International Manual of Diseases related to the diagnosis of inflammatory myopathies. Results We founded 12,401 individuals with a diagnosis of inflammatory myopathy and estimated an overall prevalence of 25.7 cases per 100,000 inhabitants. This diagnosis is more common in the age group of 65–69 years, and in the female population (64%), with a female-to-male ratio 1.79:1. In addition, we calculated a prevalence of 15.1 cases per 100,000 inhabitants for dermatomyositis and 7.3 cases per 100,000 inhabitants for polymyositis (based on a total population of 48,203). There is little information on the epidemiology of myopathies in Latin America, and records are essential to know their behaviour in populations. In Colombia, the Ministry of Health collects information from the health system, which has nearly universal coverage (around 95%). This information makes it possible to carry out epidemiological studies on different diseases. For the present study we analysed the available data on inflammatory myopathies in Colombia. Conclusions The present work describes for the first time the demographic characteristics of inflammatory myopathies in the Colombian population based on official data from the Ministry of Health, where the most frequent was dermatomyositis and a predominance in the female population was evidenced.Revista Nacional - IndexadaS

The complexity of the disease is a barrier to understanding it, however knowledge about the disease has increased considerably over time, due to advances in genetics, immunology, imaging, and a better understanding of epidemiology. The exact prevalence is unknown, and its calculation is difficult due to the use of different diagnostic or classificatory criteria throughout the last decades. The present work aims to establish the prevalence of psoriatic arthritis in Colombia and to describe the basic demographic characteristics of patients with this disease from the official administrative clinical records of the Colombian Ministry of Health. Objective To estimate the prevalence and describe the main demographic characteristics of psoriatic arthritis in Colombia. Methodology and methods Cross-sectional study, based on official Ministry of Health registry data. Results 6433 cases of psoriatic arthritis (ICD-10 code: M070, M071, M072, M073, L405) were reported between 2012 and 2018, for a prevalence in people over 18 years of 13.5 per 100,000 inhabitants, with a slight predominance of the female population (53%), with a female: male ratio of 1.12: 1, and a higher prevalence in the 55–59 year age group. Additionally, 149,130 cases of psoriasis were identified (ICD-10 code: L400, L401, L402, L403, L404, L408, L409), for a prevalence of psoriatic arthritis of 5.8% in psoriasis patients. Conclusions This is the first study to present demographic information on psoriatic arthritis in Colombia. Data from our study show a lower prevalence compared to other similar studies in the region.Revista Nacional - IndexadaS

Prevalence of inflammatory bowel disease and related arthritis in Colombia, according to information from the Health and Social Protection Data System

Q4Introduction Registries are essential to keep track of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) and related arthritis epidemiology, and to provide better care to patients. In Colombia, the health ministry has adopted a tool, SISPRO, to gather all information coming from the whole health system structure. Given that the information collected from SISPRO is available for anyone, it provides an opportunity to get an insight into health topics. Objectives The data collected from SISPRO were used to analyse the prevalence and specific characteristics of patients with IBD and related arthritis registered between 2012 and 2016. Methods This is a descriptive epidemiological study using the International Statistical Classification of Diseases and Related Health Problem as keywords related to IBD and related arthritis during the analysis of SISPRO data. Results National records report 42,647 patients with a diagnosis of IBD for an estimated prevalence of 87/100,000 subjects, being more frequent in women. The prevalence of Crohn’s disease was 17/100,000 subjects, and 113/100,000 subjects for ulcerative colitis. The prevalence of arthritis related to inflammatory bowel disease was 5/100,000 subjects. Conclusions This is the first study that describes the demographic characteristics of IBD in Colombia. This study is in accordance with that previously described in the available literature, which supports the theory about increasing global prevalence of IBD. Also, there are some differences between Colombian regions, which could be related to environmental factors and ancestry, which deserve further study.Revista Nacional - Indexad
