Higher Complement C4 Gene Copy Number Constitutes a Shared Genetic Risk Factor for Giant Cell Arteritis and IgA Vasculitis

open access: yesArthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.
Objective Low copy number (CN) of complement C4 isoforms and high CN of retroviral HERV‐K elements are known risk factors for many immune‐mediated inflammatory diseases (IMIDs), often showing sex‐biased effects. Here, we assessed whether CN variation within the C4 gene contributes to giant cell arteritis (GCA) and IgA vasculitis (IgAV), two complex ...

Complement Activation Linked to Type II Interferon Signaling in Still Disease

open access: yesArthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.
Objective Still disease (SD) is an autoinflammatory syndrome characterized by innate immune dysregulation. Although complement can drive inflammation, its involvement in SD remains to be defined. Thus, we aimed to assess complement activation in SD. Methods Complement was assessed using transcriptomic, proteomic, and in vitro approaches. RNA sequencing

CD248/Endosialin regulates synovial fibroblast state to control coupling of inflammation and bone damage in murine models of immune‐mediated inflammatory arthritis and ageing

open access: yesArthritis &Rheumatology, Accepted Article.
Objective Synovial fibroblasts directly contribute to inflammation and damage in immune‐mediated inflammatory arthritis. CD248/Endosialin is expressed by fibroblasts in the synovium, is highly upregulated during inflammation and has been proposed as a potential therapeutic target.

Electroconvulsive Therapy for Catatonia in Autistic and Non‐Autistic Patients: An Observational Study on Course, Efficacy, Aggression, and Self‐Injury Outcomes

open access: yesAutism Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Catatonia occurs disproportionately in autistic individuals and may respond to electroconvulsive therapy (ECT), yet prior reports suggest greater treatment burden in this population. We compared longitudinal ECT utilization, safety, and clinical outcomes between autistic and non‐autistic patients with catatonia.
