Pycnodysostosis is a subtype of osteopetrosis resulting from mutations in the cathepsin K gene (CTSK) on chromosome 1q21.<sup>1,2</sup> We report case 47-year-old White female patient attending rheumatology clinic with history multiple low-impact fractures adulthood, including left and right subtrochanteric tibial shaft at ages 46, 40, 31, 22 years, respectively.
Objectives Wet mount microscopy (WMM) is an ancillary test in the diagnosis of vulvovaginitis. However, there are little data about impact sampling site. Our main objective was to determine agreement between samples collected from different vaginal sites. Materials and Methods Five (one each fornices one lower third) were 50 consecutive women evaluated using phase-contrast WMM, including following: lactobacillary grade, presence other bacteria, clue cells, inflammation, atrophy. Global...
<h3>Background:</h3> Spondyloarthritis (SpA) comprise a complex group of inflammatory arthropathies that can involve both axial and peripheral joints, often associated with extra-musculoskeletal manifestations, particularly psoriasis. The distinction between Psoriatic Arthritis (PsA) involvement SpA (axSpA) concomitant psoriasis has been topic debate, potentially influencing clinical decisions. <h3>Objectives:</h3> To identify demographic characteristics clinician's decision to diagnose...
<h3>Background:</h3> Psoriatic Arthritis (PsA) is part of the spectrum spondyloarthritis (SpA), a diverse group inflammatory arthropathies involving sacroiliac, spine and peripheral joints. PsA can be categorized as either axial or predominantly disease. Axial (axPsA) may occur exclusively concomitantly with involvement. The prevalence exclusive axPsA estimated at 5% patients increasing to 25-70% when associated arthritis. However, absence consensus definition for makes real difficult...
To evaluate two-year mortality predictors in all subtypes of fragility fractures.
<h3>Background</h3> Axial spondyloarthritis (axSpA) had a predilection for the axial skeleton and belong to group of Spondyloarthritis, set inflammatory rheumatic diseases with common clinical, radiologic, serologic features in which extraarticular manifestations are frequent, including bowel disease (IBD). The link between SpA IBD has been recognized decades, 5-10% patients suffering from concurrent IBD.<sup>[2]</sup> But, emerging evidence suggests that subclinical gut inflammation is an...
<h3>Background</h3> Several studies have reported a higher prevalence of obesity in Psoriatic Arthritis (PsA)<sup>[1]</sup>. Obesity may lead to more weight on the joints, namely ankle/foot altered mechanics, and repetitive micro-trauma. Foot involvement is common PsA, including arthritis, dystrophic nails, toe dactylitis Achilles enthesitis. has been found be associated with disease activity worse functionality scores PsA patients. <sup>[1]</sup> <h3>Objectives</h3> The purpose this study...
<h3>Background</h3> Hip involvement is common in axial spondylarthritis (axSpA), with several studies reporting a prevalence as high 36% Ankylosing spondylitis (AS)<sup>[1,2]</sup>. represents negative impact on the quality of life and daily functionality these patients<sup>[2]</sup>. Although some identify radiographic sacroiliitis predictor hip Spondylarthritis<sup>[2]</sup>, there are no aiming to directly compare patients AS Non-radiographic (Nr-axSpA). <h3>Objectives</h3> The purpose...

<h3>Purpose</h3> Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE) is a chronic and multisystem autoimmune disorder characterized by heterogeneity of clinical presentations. Clinical expression the consequence production autoantibodies immune complex vasculitis with endothelial cell damage leading to blood vessel destruction serious internal organ dysfunction. Nailfold video-capillaroscopy (NVC) non-invasive inexpensive tool that allows assess microvascular involvement. In SLE only normal patterns variety...
