Reliability and Validity of the Glittre Activities of Daily Living Test in Children and Adolescents With Juvenile Idiopathic Arthritis
Juvenile Idiopathic Arthritis (JIA) is children's most common inflammatory rheumatic disease. The International League of Associations for Rheumatology (ILAR) defines it as a chronic arthritis condition that begins before the age of 16 lasts for six weeks or more, and has an unknown cause. Despite the gains made in the …
Investigation of Catastrophizing of Pain Reported by Parents in JIA Patients
Juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA) is the primary rheumatic disease reported to affect the pediatric population. Research suggests that parents' thoughts and feelings about their child's pain, specifically with JIA diagnosis, may influence treatment compliance. Considering that this situation may also affect children's adherence to treatment, the identification and management of …
Acostill ( RaDiCo Cohort) (RaDiCo Acostill)
Adult Onset Still Disease (AOSD) and Systemic onset Juvenile Idiopathic Arthritis (SoJIA) are two rare multifactorial diseases associated with systemic inflammation. These two forms AOSD and SoJIA are considered to be two facets of the same syndrome, combining four cardinal symptoms [hectic fever> 39 °, arthralgia or arthritis, skin rash, …
Dynamic Gait Index As a Functional Gait Assessment Measure in Children with JIA
Juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA) is one of the most common chronic rheumatic diseases seen in childhood. Pain, joint swelling and loss of function caused by inflammation significantly reduce the patients' quality of life and lead to muscle weakness, limited range of motion and gait disorders. Although there are various clinical …
Characterization of Immunogenicity of TNF Inhibitors in Arthritis Patients With Poorer Treatment Response.
The aim of the study is to explore whether the influence of gender, tobacco smoking and obesity on treatment response in tumor necrosis factor inhibitors (TNFIs) can be explained by high degree of inflammation, human leucocyte antigen (HLA) type, autoantibodies, TNF and TNFI concentration and presence of ADA.
Pain Processing in Inflammatory and Non-Inflammatory Chronic Pain Syndromes
Fibromyalgia (FM) is a chronic musculoskeletal pain disorder that afflicts up to 4% of the general population. The evaluation of pain mechanisms in FM has shown predominant central abnormalities and therefore has been designated as nociplastic pain syndrome. Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is characterized by polyarthritis and pain from inflamed tissues, …
Ultra Processed Foods Consumption and Impact in Rheumatic Diseases.
Ultra-processed foods (UPF) represent one of the mainstays of today's diet. They are defined by the NOVA classification system. It was demonstrated that UPF consumption was associated with activity of inflammatory bowel diseases with underlying mechanisms not fully identified yet. It is suspected that UPF constituents could modify the gut …
Histopathological Analysis Versus Full-field Optical Coherence Tomography of Minor Salivary Gland Biopsy in Suspect Sjogren Syndrome
Primary Sjögren syndrome (pSS) is a systemic autoimmune disease that mainly affects the exocrine glands leading to severe dryness of mucosal surfaces, principally in the mouth and eyes. The other clinical manifestations are fatigue and musculoskeletal pain. Diagnosis of pSS associates clinical abnormalities with specific antibodies (Ro/SSA and La/SSB antibodies) …
Complex Molecular Etiology and Cellular Landscape of Hip Osteoarthritis
The purpose of this study is to cast light on the highly complex etiology and cellular landscape of hip osteoarthritis by utilising single-cell and spatial transcriptomics.
ROLE of PLATELETS in the PATHOPHYSIOLOGY of SYSTEMIC LUPUS
Blood platelets, well known for their role in hemostasis, are abnormally activated in patients suffering from systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), but also from other immunomediated diseases (scleroderma, vasculitis, myositis, Gougerot-Sjögren's and rheumatoid arthritis) in cases of high disease activity. Once activated, platelets express adhesion molecules such as P-selectin on their …
