Risk factors and predictive model for pulmonary arterial hypertension in adult idiopathic-inflammatory-myopathy patients: A cross-sectional study
PAH is a rare but potentially fatal complication in IIM patients. Aging, complication of bacterial infection, elevated disease activity, increased serum IL-17A level, positivity of anti-SRP antibody and steroid monotherapy were significantly correlated with development of PAH in IIM patients. In addition, the BAIMS model was found valuable in prediction and early-identification of PAH in IIM patients.
