Chikungunya is an arboviral disease caused by a virus with wide geographical distribution in endemic areas. This case report documents patient antisynthetase syndrome post-chikungunya infection. Autoimmune diseases result from breakdown of immune tolerance. Among all triggers, viruses represent the greatest environmental potential to precipitate inflammatory myopathy.
Introdução: As reações do tecido cutâneo a agentes externos traduzem-se por respostas morfológicas de número limitado, que constituem as lesões elementares. Por meio da sua combinação surgem sinais morfológicos caracterizam síndromes ou afecções. elementares são classificadas em cinco grupos bem definidos: alterações cor, elevações edematosas, formações sólidas, coleções líquidas, espessura, perdas e reparações. Diversas doenças reumáticas podem se apresentar com manifestações cutâneas, como...
ABSTRACT Evans syndrome (ES) is a rare autoimmune disease of unknown etiology. ES occurs when there combination hemolytic anemia (AIHA) with thrombocytopenia, whether or not accompanied by immune neutropenia. This fits into special variable type warm AHAI and may be related to rheumatic diseases, such as systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). Its pathogenesis still far away fully understood. Direct Coombs test results are positive in 98% cases. treatment required the due hemolysis intense,...
Chikungunya is an arboviral disease caused by a virus with wide geographical distribution in endemic areas. This case report documents patient Antisynthetase Syndrome post-chikungunya infection. Autoimmune diseases result from breakdown of immune tolerance. Among all triggers, viruses represent the greatest environmental potential to precipitate inflammatory myopathy.
CONCLUSIONTo our knowledge this is the first case of post-chikungunya infection antisynthetase syndrome characterized by quadriplegia, interstitial lung disease and positive anti-Jo-1.The chikungunya was two months before it likely a trigger for development autoimmunity.Therefore, further research suggested to consolidate correlation between autoimmune inflammatory myopathy.
CONCLUSIONThe authors conclude that even in remission, light of the chronicity disease, patient with SLE can develop important neurological alterations, such as obstructive hydrocephalus.We stress importance not overlooking headaches and any new symptoms, aiming at early diagnosis medical intervention.We emphasize relevance clinical suspicion, detailed anamnesis, meticulous physical examination for a meaningful evaluation possible complications SLE.Early this condition adequate treatment...

BACKGROUNDTakayasu's arteritis (TA) is an autoimmune vasculitis that affects the great vessels, mainly aorta and its branches.The kidneys are usually affected by narrowing of renal arteries, a situation occurs in more than 50% cases disease.However, association TA with other kidney injuries still not well documented.The aim this study was to describe case associated membranoproliferative glomerulonephritis (MPGN), rare condition. CASE REPORTFemale, 19 years old, no prior comorbidities,...
Biosimilars have been new therapeutic options for immune-mediated diseases, mainly because they a better pharmacoeconomic profile.Remsima is an infliximab biosimilar approved by the European Medicines Agency Committee in September 2013 and US Food Drug Administration April 2016 all originator product indications.In Brazil, its use has released 2017, was imposed Public Health System (SUS) state of Espírito Santo, place Remicade indications Takayasu's arteritis, sarcoidosis, Behçet's disease...
Primary Sjögren's syndrome (pSS) is a systemic autoimmune disease characterized by inflammation of the lacrimal and salivary glands, in addition to extraglandular manifestations, including constitutional symptoms specific organ involvement.In parallel, COVID-19 presents itself as an infectious that can trigger abnormal immune response.Leukocytoclastic vasculitis (LCV), caused deposition complexes on vessel walls activation complement system, may be reaction both infection secondary existing...
Ethnicity is an impacting factor in prognosis both isolated systemic sclerosis (SS) and SS overlap syndromes (OS-SS).Afro-descendants have more severity worse than white people.There are no studies comparing whites Afrodescendants with OS Brazil.The present study aims to compare profile of Afro-descendant patients OS-SS followed at the Rheumatology Service University Hospital Cassiano Antônio Moraes.
BACKGROUNDIn the setting of pandemic scenario caused by COVID-19, several studies were published in search an effective vaccine.However, there are few literature that assess safety COVID-19 vaccine patients with autoimmune diseases (AID).In this context, present study aims to evaluate during 28 days after first dose against AID.
Takayasu's arteritis (TA) is an autoimmune disease characterized by large vessel vasculitis.Takayasu's has a higher prevalence in Asia, predominantly affecting young women between the second and third decade of life.There are few records on profile patients with TA Brazil.The objective this study to characterize cohort from tertiary hospital.
