Rheumatologic Manifestations of Patients With Type B Insulin Resistance

open access: yesArthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective The objectives of this study were to identify laboratory and clinical features associated with type B insulin resistance (TBIR), a rare condition caused by autoantibodies that inhibit the insulin receptor, most frequently occurring in the setting of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), and to increase awareness of this rare, life‐threatening ...

Clinical Significance of Therapeutic Drug Level Monitoring for Mycophenolate in Patients With Extrarenal Systemic Lupus Erythematosus—A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis

open access: yesArthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective Clinical response to mycophenolic acid (MPA) is highly heterogeneous; thus, therapeutic drug level monitoring (TDM) may help improve treatment efficacy. This systematic review and meta‐analysis examined therapeutic ranges for MPA levels associated with better outcomes and safety in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE ...

Miller Fisher syndrome with negative anti-GQ1b immunoglobulin G antibodies

open access: yes, 2003
Miller Fisher syndrome is characterized by a triad of ataxia, ophthalmoplegia, and reduced or absent tendon reflexes, with minimal if any limb weakness. Anti-GQ1b immunoglobulin G antibodies are present in high titers in most patients. Presented is a two-

Cracking the Code: Which Ocular Symptoms Predict Dry Eye Signs? Insights From a Large International Sicca Registry

open access: yesArthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective The study aimed to identify symptom‐based predictors of dry eye disease (DED) signs in the Sjögren's International Collaborative Clinical Alliance (SICCA) cohort. Methods We performed a retrospective analysis examining 16 ocular symptoms (most graded 0–4) and artificial tear (AT) use (graded 0–3) as predictors of DED signs (abnormal ocular ...

Identification and expression of a murine cytomegalovirus early gene coding for an Fc receptor [PDF]

open access: yes, 1994
Several herpesviruses, including cytomegalovirus, induce receptors for the Fc domain of murine immunoglobulin G (IgG) molecules. Viral genes coding for these receptors have been characterized only for alphaherpesviruses. In this report, we describe a new

Conditioning murine B cells for immunoglobulin A production In vitro

open access: yes, 2012
The respiratory mucosa is continuously exposed to a myriad of pathogens and allergens that are inhaled during respiration. B cells of the immune system produce immunoglobulin A (IgA) that protects the respiratory mucosa from inhaled pathogens and ...
