Reports link MCAD with hypermobile Ehlers-Danlos syndrome (hEDS), hypermobility spectrum disorder (HSD), and with primary immune deficiencies such as complement and immunoglobulin deficiencies (Ig Def). This study assesses the concurrence of these syndromes. We undertook a cohort analysis of patients seen in a community-based Allergy/Immunology clinic from 2015 to 2019. We searched for diagnostic codes for Ig Def disorders, hypermobility syndrome, hypermobile/Ehlers-Danlos syndrome, and MCADs. Of 974 patients with suspected MCAD, 449 (46%) had a diagnosis of MCAD; 496 (51%) of cases had a combination of at least two of hEDS/HSD, MCAD, and Ig Def. Ig Def was present in 417 (43%) of patients; 188 (19.3%) had hEDS/HSD with an Ig Def with or without MCAD and accounted for 45% of all the cases with Ig Def. Of 974 cases, 101 (10%) had hEDS/HSD and MCAD; 207 (21%) had Ig Def and MCAD; 7 (0.7%) had Ig Def and hEDS/HSD; and 181 (19%) had a combination of all three syndromes. Most patients (74%) with these comorbidities were female. The presence of MCAD and Ig Def should be explored in patients with hEDS/HSD. Identifying underlying contributors to recurrent/chronic inflammation and tissue injury is needed to tailor and personalize therapies. This, in turn, can reduce tissue damage, iatrogenic intervention, and optimize health outcomes. 收起
