Resumen

Objective: Vaccination against SARS-CoV-2 reduced morbidity and mortality rates due to COVID-19 worldwide. However, several adverse effects have been documented and of great interest such as Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE). The aim of the present study was to perform a systematic review of case reports and case series describing the development of SLE following COVID-19 against vaccination. Methods: Case report and case series studies were included. Systematic reviews, narratives, letters to the editor, correspondence, etc. were excluded. A selective bibliographic search was performed in the PubMed, Scopus, and EMBASE databases. In addition, the Web of Science platform was consulted. The Joanna Brigs Institute (JBI) tool was used to assess the risk of bias and quality of the studies. The Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS) 23.0 was used for the formal analysis of the descriptive data. Results: 12 studies met the eligibility criteria and reported a total of 16 patients. The mean age was 42.4 ± 18.69 years. A slight predominance of post-vaccination SLE was observed in females (females (n = 9) and males (n = 7). A higher association was found with Pfizer-BioNTech-162b2 vaccine (75%), followed by Sinopharm (12.5%), Moderna (6.25%). and AstraZeneca (6.25%) vaccines. Most cases were associated with the first dose (56.25%), followed by the second dose (37.5%) and only one case associated with the third dose. The number of days elapsed from vaccine administration to the appearance of the first clinical manifestations was between 1 and 30 days. Mainly there was involvement of the musculoskeletal and cutaneous system. All patients responded well to treatment with good evolution and there was no case of death. Conclusion: Cases of SLE associated with COVID-19 vaccination against are infrequent. However, clinical monitoring is recommended for persons receiving the SARS-CoV-2 vaccine, mainly those receiving the first dose and the Pfizer-BioNTech-162b2 vaccine. © The Author(s) 2024.
