Arthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.Objective Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is a heterogenous inflammatory condition with widely varying global prevalence estimates. The frequency of SLE in the general population of Australia has been reported to be notably lower than contemporary estimates in countries such as the United States or United Kingdom, at 19 to 39 per 100,000 as opposed ...

Arthritis Care &Research, Accepted Article.Interstitial lung disease (IRD‐ILD) is a significant cause of morbidity and mortality in patients with inflammatory rheumatic disorders (IRD). High‐resolution computed tomography (HRCT) is widely considered the gold standard for the non‐invasive assessment of ILD; however, its interpretation is constrained by substantial inter‐observer variability and ...

Update on the genetics of the idiopathic inflammatory myopathies [PDF]
Current Opinion in Rheumatology, 2000 A number of lines of investigation suggest that, as is likely the case for other autoimmune diseases, the idiopathic inflammatory myopathies (IIM) develop as a result of specific environmental exposures in genetically susceptible individuals. Current data imply that multiple genes are involved in the etiology of these complex disorders.

Clinical characteristics and concordance of anti‐MDA5 autoantibodies: A multicentre Australian study
Arthritis Care &Research, Accepted Article.Objectives In Australia, anti‐MDA5 antibodies are exclusively tested by line immunoblot assay (LIA). The clinical concordance of a LIA‐positive anti‐MDA5 result is unclear. We aimed to describe the clinical features and determine the clinical concordance of patients with anti‐MDA5 antibodies.

Evolving classification and role of muscle biopsy in diagnosis of inflammatory myopathies
Indian Journal of Pathology and Microbiology, 2022 Idiopathic inflammatory myopathy (IIM) is a broad term that includes dermatomyositis, polymyositis, overlap myositis, sporadic inclusion body myositis, and immune-mediated necrotizing myopathy.

Investigating the Role of Type I Interferon Signaling on Muscle Disease Using Mouse Models
Arthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.Objective Dysregulated type I interferon (IFN) signaling contributes to autoimmune myositis pathogenesis. We investigated the therapeutic effects of JAK inhibitors in two mouse models. We also examined how type I IFNs affect muscle vasculature. Methods Myositis was induced in major histocompatibility complex class I double transgenic ([TRE‐H‐2Kb (H ...

Arthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.Objective Myositis‐specific autoantibodies guide the diagnosis and classification of idiopathic inflammatory myopathies, but current immunoassays vary in accuracy, particularly for autoantibodies associated with interstitial lung disease. To compare the performance of the luciferase immunoprecipitation systems (LIPS) assay with line blot and ...
