IRIDOCYCLITIS IN JUVENILE RHEUMATOID ARTHRITIS

Pediatrics, 1969
Eight of 70 children with juvenile rheumatoid arthritis have developed iridocyclitis. This complication occurred more frequently in patients with monoarticular and pauciarticular disease (29%) than in patients with polyarticular disease (2%). Seven of eight patients with iridocyclitis have monoarticular or pauciarticular disease; none has had prominent

IS IT JUVENILE RHEUMATOID ARTHRITIS OR FIBROMYALGIA

Medical Clinics of North America, 2000
For the clinician evaluating adolescents with chronic musculoskeletal pain and fatigue, the distinctions between JRA and FS are clear based on physical examination findings. The two conditions can coexist. For the patient with an initial diagnosis of either JRA or FS whose clinical response to therapy is not in keeping with expectations or physical ...

Antiglobulins in juvenile rheumatoid arthritis

Arthritis & Rheumatism, 1977
AbstractWith initial hopes of establishing a diagnostic test for juvenile rheumatoid arthritis (JRA), five types of immunoadsorbents were used to search for occult antiglobulins in sera from children. The immunoadsorbents included glutaraldehyde‐aggregated globulin, heat‐ and glutaraldehyde‐aggregated globulin, Affi‐Gel‐bound globulin, Sepharose‐bound ...

HYPOHISTIDINEMIA IN JUVENILE RHEUMATOID ARTHRITIS

Acta Paediatrica, 1976
ABSTRACT. The mean level of plasma histidine in 86 children with rheumatoid arthritis was found to be significantly lower in comparison with that of controls. The possible influence of various drugs on the plasma histidine concentration is discussed.

Aspirin in Juvenile Rheumatoid Arthritis

Archives of Pediatrics & Adolescent Medicine, 1985
How does the rheumatologist respond to the report by Remington et al 1 of three patients with Reye syndrome who were treated with aspirin for juvenile rheumatoid arthritis? It is not an easy matter. Although juvenile rheumatoid arthritis is an infrequent disease and Reye syndrome is an unusual complication of salicylate therapy and viral disease, it ...

The Immunogenetics of Juvenile Rheumatoid Arthritis

Rheumatic Disease Clinics of North America, 1991
Recent major advances in understanding the genetic structure of the human leukocyte antigen (HLA) region and how HLA molecules contribute to immune responses have been paralleled by more precise identification of specific HLA genes conferring susceptibility to the various forms of juvenile rheumatoid arthritis (JRA).

Treatment of juvenile rheumatoid arthritis

Current Opinion in Rheumatology, 1993
New information on the treatment of juvenile rheumatoid arthritis emphasizes more aggressive control of arthritis, particularly the use of methotrexate, both in low- and higher-dose regimens. Information concerning drug toxicity, including that of the nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, second-line agents, and methotrexate, suggests that these drugs ...

Juvenile rheumatoid arthritis and spondyloarthropathies

Current Opinion in Rheumatology, 1995
Further insight into the etiology and pathogenesis of juvenile rheumatoid arthritis (JRA) is presented in recent immunogenetic studies, particularly the allele associations of the pauciarticular pattern of disease. Evidence suggests that bacterial heat-shock proteins may be significant in the chronic inflammatory response in children with arthritis ...
