Introduction Jaccoud arthropathy (JA) is a deforming nonerosive arthropathy, characterized by the presence of “reversible” joint deformity. The study aims at describing main musculoskeletal ultrasound (US) findings series systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) patients with JA. Methods Consecutive diagnosed as having JA and SLE were included in study. All underwent whole clinical evaluation US hands wrists. scan evaluated synovial hypertrophy, tenosynovitis, bone erosions. Results Thirty-nine 40...
Objectives The objective of this paper is to perform an ultrasonography (US) analysis hands and wrists in two groups patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), without Jaccoud’s arthropathy, matched by age disease duration correlate them levels CXCL13 clinical features, laboratory tests activity score. Methods Sixty-four SLE were enrolled, 32 arthropathy. Each patient underwent physical examination, (including ELISA) bilateral US. Synovial hypertrophy, tenosynovitis erosions evaluated...
<h3>Background</h3> Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is an autoimmune disease that can present, as other collagen vascular disorders, changes in blood vessels. It be evaluated by a non-invasive technique called periungual nailfold videocapillaroscopy (VCP). This helpful the diagnosis of systemic sclerosis (SSc), being part new classification criteria, and identifies individuals with Raynaud9s phenomenon who are at higher risk for developing SSc. <h3>Objectives</h3> study aims to describe...
<h3>Background</h3> Joint involvement in systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is one of the earliest manifestation disease (1).Only 2–5% cases develop a deforming and non-erosive type arthritis, known as Jaccoud Arthropathy (JA). Until now, there no serum autoantibodies marker for it (2).The chemokine CXC ligand 13 protein (CXCL13) most potent B-cell chemo attractants constitutively expressed follicles secondary lymphoid organs (3). Its seric level has been associated to degree synovitis...
A 62-year-old man with a history of systemic sclerosis was admitted diffuse alveolar hemorrhage and acute kidney injury without clinical data suggestive glomerulonephritis. Laboratory tests showed anemia, leukocytosis neutrophilia, thrombocytopenia, elevated serum creatinine metabolic acidosis. Antinuclear antibodies were positive at titer 1/640 (speckled, 1/160; nucleolar, 1/320) while rheumatoid factor, anti Scl-70, anti-centromere, anti-neutrophil cytoplasmic antibody anti-glomerular...
Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is an autoimmune disease that can present changes in blood vessels, which be evaluated by periungual nailfold videocapillaroscopy (VCP). This technique important for the diagnosis of systemic sclerosis and to identify individuals with Raynaud phenomenon at higher risk developing sclerosis. study aims describe videocapillaroscopic profile a series SLE patients investigate if VCP pattern different among those Jaccoud arthropathy (JA) compared without.Between...
