Abstract

Introdução: Na população sem artrite reumatoide a esteatose hepática está associada a síndrome metabólico, perfil lipídico anormal e aumento de biomarcadores pró-inflamatórios como PCR. Em diabéticos a sua presença se associa ao aumento do risco de eventos cardiovasculares. Estudos que avaliam o impacto da presença de esteatose em pacientes com AR são escassos. Objetivo: Verificar a associação da esteatose hepática com parâmetros clínicos de atividade da AR e a presença de comorbidades. Métodos: Estudo caso-controle que incluiu 55 pacientes com AR e esteatose hepática não alcóolica versus 55 pacientes com AR sem esteatose, pareadas pelo sexo e idade. Utilizou-se ultrassonografia como método diagnóstico de esteatose hepática para estratificação dos grupos. Resultados: Dislipidemia foi presente em 80% no grupo caso (esteatose) e 63,6% no grupo controle com OR=2,3 (p=0,05).  Da mesma forma, 74,5% dos pacientes com esteatose faziam uso de estatina versus 54,5% no grupo controle com OR=2,44 (p=0,046). A pesquisa de associação da presença de esteatose com outras comorbidades como HAS, DM tipo 2, hipotireoidismo e com o hábito do tabagismo não mostraram significância estatística (p>0,05). Em relação aos parâmetros laboratoriais analisados, como o FR, a VHS e a PCR, estes não diferiram nos dois grupos comparados (p>0,05). Conclusão: Dislipidemia é mais frequente em pacientes com AR que apresentam esteatose hepática, o que justifica a maior utilização de estatina neste subgrupo. Outras comorbidades e parâmetros laboratoriais da AR não se associam a presença de esteatose.  Considerando ser a presença de esteatose hepática um fator de risco para evento cardiovascular na população em geral, em particular nos diabéticos, o reconhecimento da sua prevalência em AR e da sua associação com dislipidemia nestes pacientes é importante, devido a possibilidade de medidas de prevenção primária de eventos cardiovascular.
