In silico validation of the Autoinflammatory Disease Damage Index. [PDF]

Ann Rheum Dis, 2018
Autoinflammatory diseases can cause irreversible tissue damage due to systemic inflammation. Recently, the Autoinflammatory Disease Damage Index (ADDI) was developed. The ADDI is the first instrument to quantify damage in familial Mediterranean fever, cryopyrin-associated periodic syndromes, mevalonate kinase deficiency and tumour necrosis factor ...

Cell Damage Index as Computational Indicator for Blood Cell Activation and Damage. [PDF]

Artif Organs, 2018
AbstractShear‐induced hemolysis is a major concern in the design and optimization of blood‐contacting devices. Even with a small amount of mechanical stress, inflammatory reactions can be triggered in the cells. Blood damage is typically estimated using continuum fluid dynamics simulations.

Vasculitis damage index in Behçet’s disease [PDF]

Advances in Rheumatology, 2021
Abstract Background Vasculitis damage index (VDI) is a validated damage index for systemic vasculitis, and as Behçet’s disease is considered one of systemic vascular disease we aimed to study the relationship of the vasculitis damage index to clinical manifestations and comorbidity in patients with Behçet’s disease (BD ...

Measurement of damage in systemic vasculitis: a comparison of the Vasculitis Damage Index with the Combined Damage Assessment Index [PDF]

Annals of the Rheumatic Diseases, 2011
To compare the Vasculitis Damage Index (VDI) with the Combined Damage Assessment Index (CDA) as measures of damage from vasculitis.A total of 283 patients with vasculitis from 11 European centres were evaluated in a cross-sectional study using the VDI and CDA.Wegener's granulomatosis (58.4%) and microscopic polyangiitis (11.0%) were the most common ...
