Nor was there any significant clinical worsening of any of the abovementioned SARD after vaccination.

It is important to note that although the degree of immunogenicity achieved in some cases, such as in SLE patients for certain strains, is often lower than in healthy individuals, it is still adequate. However, in certain patient profiles (e.g., active SLE, undergoing IS treatment or with daily doses of prednisone >10 mg, or other SARD on IS treatment), efficacy appears to be lower.</p></span></span></span><span id="sec0130" class="elsevierStyleSection elsevierViewall"><span class="elsevierStyleSectionTitle" id="sect0190">Discussion</span><p id="par0515" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">Recommendations for infection prevention in SARD have been made in this document, based on SR of the available evidence, with a broader scope than that conducted by the EULAR experts in their update of vaccination recommendations<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0145"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">29</span></a> for a specific SARD subgroup. Where insufficient evidence was available, the SR were supplemented by the consensus opinion of the expert panel. To our knowledge, these are the first infection prevention recommendations specifically developed for SARD. They also include mentions of vaccines and chemoprophylaxis not covered in the PICO questions and general infection prevention measures, which should be part of the standard of infection risk management in all immunocompromised patients.</p><p id="par0520" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">We can conclude overall that the vaccines studied are reasonably safe and effective in SARD patients, although their immunogenicity is not always at a level like that of the general population. For some of the vaccines assessed in SARD, we observed a negative influence of IS treatment, this is particularly reported in patients with SLE receiving influenza vaccine.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0640"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">128</span></a> It is important to note that most of the studies that have not demonstrated a negative effect of IS on the immunogenicity of vaccines lack sufficient statistical power.</p><p id="par0525" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">The vaccination booster strategy, using a second dose of influenza vaccine or more doses against HBV, to boost response, is a novel recommendation in SARD, which seeks to circumvent a possible suboptimal response due to IS treatment or high disease activity at the time of vaccination. This strategy is used successfully in other situations of compromised immunity, such as solid organ transplantation.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0765"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">153</span></a></p><p id="par0530" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">Regarding chemoprophylaxis, only prevention of PCJ pneumonia was considered. Although the panel acknowledges that the incidence of this infection is low in SARD patients,<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0770"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">154</span></a> given its high mortality,<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRefs" href="#bib0775"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">155–157</span></a> even higher than that observed in patients with HIV,<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0270"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">54</span></a> and the effectiveness and relative safety of TMT/SMX found in the SR, its use is recommended in at-risk subgroups. There is a cost-effectiveness analysis that would support its use, with favourable results, in patients with vasculitis.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0790"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">158</span></a></p><p id="par0535" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">In addition to those contained in the body of evidence, developed from the PICO questions, it is relevant to highlight other potential advantages of chemoprophylaxis with TMT/SMX, such as the prevention of other serious respiratory infections, other than PCJ pneumonia, in patients with systemic vasculitis treated with RTX.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0795"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">159</span></a></p><p id="par0540" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">Another potential beneficial effect of vaccination, linked to a reduction in infectious events, is its contribution to the control of SARD activity, as infections are known triggers of disease flares in these patients. This effect has been little studied and has only been described with influenza vaccine in SLE or ANCA-associated vasculitis.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0760"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">152</span></a></p><p id="par0545" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">Among the limitations of these recommendations, we should first highlight their limited spectrum, as they do not include all infections for which preventive measures are available. In this regard, the opinion of the expert group was not to include recommendations for infections where changes are expected in the short term, such as varicella zoster virus (VZV).</p><p id="par0550" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">Secondly, for improvements to vaccines, such as the nonavalent HPV vaccine (HPV-9), which broadens the antigenic spectrum above that of the previous tetravalent vaccine (HPV-4), it would be desirable to have specific safety data for SARD. There is no evidence on whether or not it is advisable to revaccinate with HPV-9 to extend protection to patients already vaccinated with HPV-4. It may be reasonable to do so only if there are risk factors for the development of cervical cancer, or if, despite being vaccinated, the patient becomes infected with HPV. Studies are needed to assess whether this practice is safe and cost-effective in patients with SARD.</p><p id="par0555" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">Thirdly, the information on safety and efficacy of the vaccines covered in the recommendations refers to patients in remission or low disease activity and therefore with low doses of GC, or maintenance or no immunosuppression as the most common scenario. Given the stimulation of immunity intrinsic to the vaccination process, there is a hypothetical possibility that the vaccines could trigger flares of SARD activity. However, the SR of the evidence suggest that, at least in remission or low disease activity situations, the vaccines reviewed do not significantly increase SARD activity. The data in this regard are particularly robust for SLE, but less so for the other SARD, where although consistent with those described in SLE, they are insufficient.</p><p id="par0560" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">Fourthly, there is a limitation regarding the target population for certain vaccines, such as the HPV vaccine, which has been studied primarily in females. As there may be sex differences in immunogenicity,<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRefs" href="#bib0800"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">160–162</span></a> these results are not directly applicable to men.</p><p id="par0565" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">Finally, limited information was found in the SR to support these recommendations on the most relevant clinical outcomes, such as infectious event, hospitalisation, or mortality.</p></span><span id="sec0135" class="elsevierStyleSection elsevierViewall"><span class="elsevierStyleSectionTitle" id="sect0195">Conclusions</span><p id="par0570" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">We present the first official SER document of recommendations for the prevention of infections in patients with SARD. These recommendations were made using a validated methodology, an SR of the scientific literature and expert consensus techniques. The recommendations can be directly applied to the Spanish healthcare system, as all the vaccines and chemoprophylactic agents included are available in Spain.</p><p id="par0575" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">The SR of the evidence indicates that the vaccines and the chemoprophylaxis covered in these recommendations are reasonably safe and effective in SARD. It has been observed that some vaccines do not achieve the same level of immunogenicity as the general population, which seems to be related to IS treatment, but not exclusively. To avoid the risk of discontinuing therapy in patients with SARD, a booster strategy with a second dose has been recommended for some vaccines, such as influenza, given its satisfactory results in other immunosuppressed patient populations.</p></span><span id="sec0140" class="elsevierStyleSection elsevierViewall"><span class="elsevierStyleSectionTitle" id="sect0200">Funding</span><p id="par0580" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall"><span class="elsevierStyleItalic">Fundación Española de Reumatología</span> (<span class="elsevierStyleGrantSponsor" id="gs0005">Spanish Rheumatology Foundation</span>).</p></span><span id="sec0145" class="elsevierStyleSection elsevierViewall"><span class="elsevierStyleSectionTitle" id="sect0205">Conflict of interests</span><p id="par0585" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">Íñigo Rua-Figueroa Fernández de Larrinoa has no interest to declare in relation to this recommendation paper.</p><p id="par0590" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">Patricia E.
