Publication Metadata only Sex matters in CSU: Women face greater burden and poorer urticaria control, especially in midlife-CURE insights(WILEY, 2025) Kocaturk, Emek; Salameh, Pascale; Asero, Riccardo; Bizjak, Mojca; Gimenez-Arnau, Ana; Grattan, Clive; Pesque, David; Planella-Fontanillas, Nidia; Herzog, Leonie Shirin; Buttgereit, Thomas; Bonnekoh, Hanna; Fomina, Daria; Kovalkova, Elena; Lebedkina, Marina; Kasperska-Zajac, Alicja; Zajac, Magdalena; Zamlynsk, Mateusz; Kulthanan, Kanokvalai; Tuchinda, Papapit; Khoshkhui, Maryam; Hassanpour, Zohreh; Peter, Jonny; Du-Thanh, Aurelie; Meshkova, Raisa; Abuzakouk, Mohamed; Makris, Michael; Bouillet, Laurence; Bocquet, Alexis; Gregoriou, Stamatios; Thomsen, Simon Francis; Dissemond, Joachim; Staubach, Petra; Bauer, Andrea; Danilycheva, Inna; van Doorn, Martijn; Parisi, Claudio; Metz, Martin; Fluhr, Joachim W.; Zuberbier, Torsten; Weller, Karsten; Kolkhir, Pavel; Free University of Berlin; Humboldt University of Berlin; Charite Universitatsmedizin Berlin; Free University of Berlin; Humboldt University of Berlin; Bahcesehir University; Lebanese American University; University of Nicosia; University Clinic Golnik; Pompeu Fabra University; Hospital del Mar Research Institute; Hospital del Mar; Sechenov First Moscow State Medical University; Astana Medical University; Medical University of Silesia; Mahidol University; Mashhad University of Medical Sciences; Ahvaz Jundishapur University of Medical Sciences (AJUMS); University of Cape Town; Universite de Montpellier; Cleveland Clinic Foundation; National & Kapodistrian University of Athens; University Hospital Attikon; CHU Grenoble Alpes; Communaute Universite Grenoble Alpes; Universite Grenoble Alpes (UGA); National & Kapodistrian University of Athens; University of Copenhagen; Copenhagen University Hospital; Bispebjerg Hospital; University of Copenhagen; University of Duisburg Essen; Johannes Gutenberg University of Mainz; Technische Universitat Dresden; Carl Gustav Carus University Hospital; NRC Institute of Immunology FMBA of Russia; Erasmus University Rotterdam; Erasmus MC; Hospital Italiano de Buenos Aires; University of Buenos Aires; University of Buenos Aires HospitalBackground: Chronic spontaneous urticaria (CSU), a disease predominantly affecting females, has limited information available on its differences between females and males of varying ages.Objective To investigate sex differences in age groups regarding disease activity, comorbidities, quality of life (QoL) and treatment patterns in CSU patients. Methods: We analysed Chronic Urticaria Registry (CURE) data, an international real-world registry for patients with chronic urticaria. Patients were recruited via an online platform using a standardized questionnaire. The data were analysed for demographics, age of onset, duration of urticaria, (Urticaria Activity Score [UAS], Urticaria Control Test [UCT], Chronic Urticaria Quality of Life Questionnaire [CU-Q2oL]), family history, systemic symptoms, aggravating factors, comorbidities, smoking and alcohol consumption, laboratory parameters, burden of disease, treatment distribution and response rates, compliance to treatment and adverse events. Comparisons were made among age groups <13, 13-17, 18-30, 31-50, 51-65 and >65 years. Results: Across 4136 CSU patients (from 58 sites across 29 countries), 2994 (72.4%) were female. Statistically significant female predominance started at age 31 (<0.001). Compared with males, females showed higher rates of angioedema (59.6 vs. 51.7%, p < 0.001), systemic symptoms (34.6 vs. 25.4%, p < 0.001), sleep disturbance (38.9 vs. 32.5%, p < 0.001), QoL impairment (CU-Q2oL score 32 vs. 27.7, p < 0.001) and lower rates of urticaria control than males in all medication categories (p < 0.05 for all). Females had more concomitant diseases, including asthma, thyroid disease, obesity, autoimmune disease, gastrointestinal disease and depression (p < 0.05 for all). The disease was especially more burdensome and refractory in females aged 51-65 years than males, evidenced by more angioedema and systemic symptoms, worse QoL, lower UCT scores and more emergency visits (p < 0.05 for all). However, these differences were not prominent in the elderly females (>65 years).Conclusion Compared with males, female CSU patients experience more burdensome disease, which gets worse in midlife.Publication Metadata only Can Synthetic Data Allow for Smaller Sample Sizes in Chronic Urticaria Research?(WILEY, 2025) Gutsche, Annika; Salameh, Pascale; Jahandideh, Samad S.; Roodsaz, Mehran; Kutan, Serkan; Salehzadeh-Yazdi, Ali; Kocatuerk, Emek; Gregoriou, Stamatios; Thomsen, Simon F.; Kulthanan, Kanokvalai; Tuchinda, Papapit; Dissemond, Joachim; Kasperska-Zajac, Alicja; Zajac, Magdalena; Zamlynski, Mateusz; van Doorn, Martijn; Parisi, Claudio A.

In clinical trials, strict inclusion and exclusion criteria frequently limit recruitment, making it difficult to achieve sufficient statistical power. Similarly, real-world observational studies may lack sufficient sample sizes for robust analysis. To address these limitations, we generated synthetic patient data that reflect these groups' clinical characteristics and variability. This approach enables more comprehensive analyses, facilitates hypothesis testing in otherwise inaccessible populations, and supports the generation of evidence where traditional data sources are insufficient. Methods: A tree-based decision model was applied to generate synthetic data based on an existing set of real-world data (RWD) from the Chronic Urticaria Registry (CURE). Descriptive characteristics and association strength between relevant RWD variables and their synthetic counterparts were analyzed as indicators of replication accuracy, providing insight into how closely the synthetic data aligns with the RWD. Finally, we determined the minimum sample size required to generate high-quality synthetic data. Results: The algorithm produced extensive synthetic data records, closely mirroring patient demographics and disease clinical characteristics. Smaller subgroups of the data were equally replicated and followed the same distribution as RWD. Known associations and correlations between disease-specific factors (disease control) and risk factors (age) yielded similar results, with no significant difference (p > 0.05). The lowest threshold at which synthetic data could be generated while maintaining high accuracy in RWD was identified to be 25%, enabling a fourfold increase in the synthetic population. Conclusion: Synthetic data could replicate RWD with reasonable accuracy for patients with CSU down to 25% of the original population size. This method has the potential to extend small patient subgroups in clinical and epidemiological research.Publication Metadata only Sex matters in CSU: Women face greater burden and poorer urticaria control, especially in midlife-CURE insights(WILEY, 2025) Kocaturk, Emek; Salameh, Pascale; Asero, Riccardo; Bizjak, Mojca; Gimenez-Arnau, Ana; Grattan, Clive; Pesque, David; Planella-Fontanillas, Nidia; Herzog, Leonie Shirin; Buttgereit, Thomas; Bonnekoh, Hanna; Fomina, Daria; Kovalkova, Elena; Lebedkina, Marina; Kasperska-Zajac, Alicja; Zajac, Magdalena; Zamlynsk, Mateusz; Kulthanan, Kanokvalai; Tuchinda, Papapit; Khoshkhui, Maryam; Hassanpour, Zohreh; Peter, Jonny; Du-Thanh, Aurelie; Meshkova, Raisa; Abuzakouk, Mohamed; Makris, Michael; Bouillet, Laurence; Bocquet, Alexis; Gregoriou, Stamatios; Thomsen, Simon Francis; Dissemond, Joachim; Staubach, Petra; Bauer, Andrea; Danilycheva, Inna; van Doorn, Martijn; Parisi, Claudio; Metz, Martin; Fluhr, Joachim W.; Zuberbier, Torsten; Weller, Karsten; Kolkhir, Pavel; Free University of Berlin; Humboldt University of Berlin; Charite Universitatsmedizin Berlin; Free University of Berlin; Humboldt University of Berlin; Bahcesehir University; Lebanese American University; University of Nicosia; University Clinic Golnik; Pompeu Fabra University; Hospital del Mar Research Institute; Hospital del Mar; Sechenov First Moscow State Medical University; Astana Medical University; Medical University of Silesia; Mahidol University; Mashhad University of Medical Sciences; Ahvaz Jundishapur University of Medical Sciences (AJUMS); University of Cape Town; Universite de Montpellier; Cleveland Clinic Foundation; National & Kapodistrian University of Athens; University Hospital Attikon; CHU Grenoble Alpes; Communaute Universite Grenoble Alpes; Universite Grenoble Alpes (UGA); National & Kapodistrian University of Athens; University of Copenhagen; Copenhagen University Hospital; Bispebjerg Hospital; University of Copenhagen; University of Duisburg Essen; Johannes Gutenberg University of Mainz; Technische Universitat Dresden; Carl Gustav Carus University Hospital; NRC Institute of Immunology FMBA of Russia; Erasmus University Rotterdam; Erasmus MC; Hospital Italiano de Buenos Aires; University of Buenos Aires; University of Buenos Aires HospitalBackground: Chronic spontaneous urticaria (CSU), a disease predominantly affecting females, has limited information available on its differences between females and males of varying ages.Objective To investigate sex differences in age groups regarding disease activity, comorbidities, quality of life (QoL) and treatment patterns in CSU patients.
