Norsk systemisk bindevevssykdom og vaskulittregister (NOSVAR)
NOSVAR er Norges største register for systemiske bindevevssykdommer og vaskulitter med mer enn 4000 inkluderte pasienter. Registeret sprer kompetanse ved å ha bidratt til over 100 publikasjoner i internasjonale fagtidsskrift og til seks medisinske doktorgrader.
NOSVAR eies av Oslo Universitetssykehus (OUS) og skal bidra til økt pasientsikkerhet gjennom å anvende data til kvalitetssikring, kompetanseheving og forskning på revmatiske bindevevssykdommer og systemisk vaskulitt. Registeret er godkjent av myndighetene, og registrering ber basert på skriftlig samtykke fra pasientene. En «biobank» med nedfrosne blod- og serumprøver er knyttet til registeret. NOSVAR finansieres med offentlige midler og har ingen bindinger til farmasøytisk industri, informasjonsteknologiske selskaper eller andre kommersielle aktører.
NOSVAR systematiserer erfaringer med de sjeldne systemiske bindevevssykdommene og vaskulitter, evaluerer resultatene og publisere dem. Ny kunnskap fra NOSVAR når dermed pasienter, behandlere og forskere i inn og utland. Registeret er knyttet til internasjonale profesjonelle forskernettverk.
NOSVAR har siden 1998 hatt godkjenning av Datatilsynet, og fornyet konsesjon er gyldig foreløpig til 2028. All registrering baseres på «informert samtykke» som innebærer at hver pasient får muntlig og skriftlig informasjon om registeret og om biobanken før eventuell inklusjon. Det er mulig å trekke seg fra registeret når som helst. Registreringer foregår for tiden bare ved Revmatologisk seksjon, Oslo Universitetssykehus, Rikshospitalet.
Registeret har siden 1998 hatt godkjenning av Datatilsynet. Fornyet konsesjon er gyldig foreløpig til 2028. All registrering baseres på «informert samtykke» som innebærer at hver pasient får muntlig og skriftlig informasjon om registeret og om forskningsbiobanken før eventuell inklusjon. Det er mulig å trekke seg fra registeret når som helst.
Dersom data brukes i registerbaserte forskningsstudier, kreves at studiene har spesifikk godkjenning fra Regional Etisk Komite (REK). Databehandleransvarlig for registeret er Oslo Universitetssykehus HF ved administrerende direktør. Seksjon for Revmatiske Sykdommer ved overlege dr.med Øyvind Palm administrerer registeret. Overlegen rapporterer direkte til seksjonsleder og utarbeider årsrapport i samarbeid med registerkoordinator Torhild Garen. Registerkoordinatoren står for den daglige driften av registeret. Registermedarbeider Kari Fresjar bidrar til mest mulig komplett registrering på sengeposten.
Styringsgruppen består av seksjonsleder professor dr.med Øyvind Molberg, overlege dr.med Ragnar Gunnarsson, overlege dr.med Øyvind Palm, overlege Øyvind Midtvedt og registerkoordinator Torhild Garen. Større endringer i registeret diskuteres i styringsgruppen før vedtak fattes. Referansegruppen for registeret består av seksjonsleder ved seksjon for revmatologi, OUS, Rikshospitalet og avdelingsoverlegene ved de eksterne avdelinger som kan delta i registreringene.
Alle pasienter som har aktuelle systemiske bindevevssykdommer eller vaskulitter vil bli forespurt om deltakelse i NOSVAR. Det er en forutsetning at en er pasient ved Revmatologisk seksjon ved Oslo Universitetssykehuset, Rikshospitalet, og at diagnosen er sikker. All deltakelse er frivillig, basert på informasjon og forutsetter en skriftlig godkjenning (bredt samtykke) fra hver pasient. De fleste registreringer baseres på data fra sykejournalen, tar få minutter å gjennomføre og gjøres samtidig med en rutinekonsultasjon. Det vi ønsker å registrere omfatter personnummer, når sykdommen begynte og diagnoseåret. I tillegg spør vi om lov til å ta ekstra blodprøver for forskning. Prøvene oppbevares i Forskningsbiobank for revmatologi, hud- og infeksjonssykdommer
Siden registreringene begynte i 1999, er mer enn 4700 pasienter inkludert og mer enn 3000 har avgitt blodprøver til forskingsbiobanken. De vanligste sykdommene er systemisk lupus erythematosus (SLE), Sjøgrens syndrom, Systemisk sklerose, myositt og ANCA-vaskulitter. Hvis du er registrert med systemisk sklerose, vil du få noen spørreskjema som kartlegger din funksjon og ulike pågående plager.
Figuren viser antall personer med et utvalg ulike diagnoser per 31.12.2020. Bidevevssykdommer og vaskulitter er illustrert med henholdsvis mørk blå og lys blå farge.
Når data fra register og biobank ønskes brukt i et nytt forskningsprosjekt vil en søke om godkjenning fra REK. Dette bidrar til å sikre at pasientopplysninger og forskningsdata blir håndtert på en forsvarlig måte.
Ditt bidrag er viktig
For hver eneste pasient som bidrar med sine helseopplysninger og sitt prøvemateriale til revmatologisk forskning og kvalitetssikringsstudier, vil forskere og klinikere få et bedre grunnlag for å forstå sykdommen din. Sykdommene er sjeldne, så hver enkelt betyr mye.
Større forståelse av sykdommene vil bidra til at vi får bedre muligheter til å forebygge og behandle disse alvorlige revmatiske sykdommene i fremtiden.
Frivillig deltakelse
Ingen blir registrert uten å ha fått muntlig og skriftlig informasjon eller mot sin vilje. Du kan også trekke deg fra registeret uten å måtte oppgi grunn. Om du ikke ønsker delta, vil det ikke gå ut over den videre oppfølgningen eller ha andre konsekvenser. Til nå har oppslutningen om NOSVAR vært stor, nesten alle forespurte ønsker å bli registrert og det er få som har trukket seg.

GENETISKE MARKØRER VED SYSTEMISKE, AUTOIMMUNE SYKDOMMER (DISSECT STUDIEN), UNIVERSITETET I UPPSALA, SVERIGE
Prosjektansvarlig: professor dr.med Øyvind Molberg
Prosjektmedarbeidere: Seksjon for revmatologi, OUS: Øyvind Palm, Helena Andersson, Karoline Lerang, Universitetet i Uppsala: Lars Rönnblom, Johanna Sandling
Rek sør-øst: 2016/685 Genetiske markører ved systemiske, autoimmune sykdommer.
DISSECT-studien er et Astra Zeneca (AZ)-Scilifelab-nordisk myositt samarbeidsprosjekt under ledelse av Professor Lars Rönnblom ved universitetet i Uppsala. Hensikten er å kartlegge koblingen mellom genetiske variasjon, immunologiske avvik og kliniske symptom ved tre ulike systemiske autoimmune sykdommer; SLE, Sjøgrens syndrom og myositt. Prosjektkoordinator er Johanna Sandling. DNA fra 155 myositt-pasienter fra NOSVAR biobanken ble inkludert i 2015. Serum fra de samme pasientene ble sendt i mai 2016. I 2017 er det i tillegg utlevert 143 EDTA av Sjøgren pasienter. Uttak er også gjort på 400 EDTA SLE som ble sendt i januar 2018. I mars 2019 ble samarbeidsprosjektet med Astra Zeneca (AZ)-Scilifelab avsluttet. Totalt 22 vitenskapelige publikasjoner (artikler og abstracts) er publisert i løpet av samarbeidsperioden. Data vil fortsatt bli analysert av Dissect akademia og flere studier er pågående. En artikkel med data fra pasienter inkludert i NOSVAR (Sjøgren) ble publisert i 2020.
PÅVISNING AV NYE AUTO-ANTISTOFFER VED SYSTEMISK BINDEVEVSSYKDOMMER

Rek sør-øst: 2018/674 Utfallsrelaterte biomarkører ved systemiske inflammatoriske revmatiske sykdommer
Flere hundre selskaper verden over konkurrerer i dag om å selge over en million forskjellige antistoffer til forksere og diagnostiske laboratorier. Mange er av dårlig kvalitet, og binder ikke de proteiner de er laget for. Hensikten med denne studien er å finne ut om ny teknologi kan hjelpe oss til å identifisere flere auto antistoffer ved systemiske bindevevs sykdommer på tvers av diagnosene Sle, MCTD og SSc. Undersøkelsen av ulike serum bestanddeler gjennomføres ved hjelp av egnet undersøkelsesmetodikk (ELISA, multiplex assays og proteomikk-baserte assays) og (2) karakterisering av immunkompetente celler fra blod ved hjelp av overflatemarkør-analyser og biokjemiske undersøkelser. Artikkelskriving pågår
