THU0577 Do raynaud phenomenon negative juvenile systemic scleroderma patients have a different pattern of organ involvement as raynaud phenomenon positive patients?

Background Juvenile systemic scleroderma (jSSc) is an orphan disease, with an estimated prevalence of 3 per 1000 000 children. Most jSSc patients primarily present with Raynaud phenomenon (RP). We investigated in our patient of the juvenile scleroderma inception cohort, how fare patients with (RP+) and without (RP-) RP differed in their clinical presentation at enrolment. Methods The jSSc is a prospective cohort of jSSc patients. Patients were enrolled who were diagnosed with jSSc, had a jSSc onset age under 16 years and were younger as age of 18 years at the time of inclusion. The patients are prospectively assessed every 6 months according to a standardised protocol. We reviewed the organ involvement pattern of our patients currently followed in the cohort. Results 100 patients are currently followed in the cohort and 89 (89%) of them had RP. The female/male ratio was lower in the RP +group, 3.7:1 compared to 4.5:1(p=0.808). Diffuse subtype was more common in the RP +group, 72% compared to 63%. Mean age of onset of first non- Raynaud symptomatic was 10.4 years in both groups. Mean disease duration was slightly higher in the RP +group, 3.4 compared to 2.2 years. ANA positivity was higher in the RP +group, 88% compared to 70% (p=0.48). Anti-Scl70 was 34% in the RP +and 20% in the RP-group (p=0.34). Interestingly 7% of RP +but none of the RP +were anti-centromere positive. The mean modified skin score was lower in RP +group (mean of 14.8 compared to 17.0). There were significantly more nailfold capillary changes (70% compared to 18%, p=0.001) and a higher rate of history of ulceration in the RP +group (49% compared to 20%, p=0.083). Decreased DLCO and FVC Conclusions The RP– group differed from RP +group in the clinical presentation at enrolment. The absence of Raynaud phenomenon was associated with a decreased rate of history of ulceration, no occurrence of pulmonary hypertension. Interestingly higher rate of urinary sedimentary changes and no anticentromere positivity was observed in RP- patients. Disclosure of Interest None declared
