Arthritis & Rheumatism, 2006 AbstractMyositis has been reported as a rare manifestation of Lyme disease, and Lyme myositis can be an important consideration in the differential diagnosis of unusual cases, especially in patients who live in or travel to endemic areas. We report the case of a 43‐year‐old man who presented with focal myositis of the proximal lower extremity and was ...

Murine models of idiopathic inflammatory myopathy
Immunological Medicine, 2023 Idiopathic inflammatory myopathies (IIMs) are characterized by inflammation of muscles and other organs. Several myositis-specific autoantibodies (MSAs) have been identified in IIMs and were found to be associated with distinct clinical features ...

Indian Journal of Rheumatology, 2021 Proximal muscle weakness in children, as well as adults, can be the presenting feature of a wide range of diseases including but not limited to the idiopathic inflammatory myopathies, muscle dystrophies, metabolic, endocrine, and drug-induced myopathies. Certain diagnostic clues such as selective muscle involvement in inherited dystrophies, cramping on

, 2011 The idiopathic inflammatory myopathies (IIM), classically dermatomyositis (DM), polymyositis (PM), and inclusion body myositis (IBM), are acquired systemic autoimmune disorders defined by chronic muscle weakness and inflammation of unknown aetiology. The combination of clinical, laboratory, electromyographic, and histological features is

Arthritis Research & Therapy, 2012 T cells of both the CD4 and CD8 lineage are commonly found in affected tissues of patients with idiopathic inflammatory myopathies, but understanding the contribution of these cells to immunopathogenesis remains challenging. Given recent advances in identifying more myositis-associated autoantibodies and their putative targets, we suggest that studies ...
