N2 - Background We investigated the pattern of reported immune diseases in the international ASIA syndrome registry. Methods: Data from 500 subjects exposed to adjuvants from the ASIA syndrome international registry were analysed. Results: The patient mean age was 43 +/- 17 years and 89% were female. Within the reported immune diseases, 69% were well-defined immune diseases (autoimmune, autoinflammation, and mixed pattern diseases). Among the well-defined immune diseases following the exposure to adjuvants, polygenic autoimmune diseases were significantly higher than autoinflammatory disorders (92.7% vs 5.8 respectively, p <0.001). Polygenic autoimmune diseases such as connective tissue diseases were significantly linked to the exposure to HBV vaccine (OR 3.15 [95%CI 1.08-9.23], p = 0.036). Polygenic autoinflammatory diseases were significantly associated with the exposure to influenza vaccination (OR 10.98 [95%CI 3.81-31.67], p <0.0001). Conclusions: Immune conditions following vaccination are rare, and among these, polygenic autoimmune diseases represent the vast majority of the well-defined immune diseases reported under the umbrella ASIA syndrome. However, vaccines benefit outweighs their autoimmune side effects.
