(1) To determine the proportion of children evaluated for musculoskeletal pain in a paediatric primary care clinic over three year period; (2) to describe number office visits due pain; (3) categorise more common presenting complaints; and (4) characterise aetiology clinic.Retrospective chart review all > or =3 <15 years age an urban Madrid between 1 January 1997 31 December 1999.(1) A total 317 were throughout study. The prevalence increased as grew older, from 2.4-5.7% at 3 27.5-36% 14....
Abstract Objective To investigate the proxy‐reported health‐related quality of life (HRQOL) and its determinants in patients with juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA). Methods In this multinational, multicenter, cross‐sectional study, HRQOL JIA was assessed through Child Health Questionnaire (CHQ) compared that healthy children similar age from same geographic area. Potential included demographic data, physician's parent's global assessments, measures joint inflammation, Childhood Assessment...
Kawasaki disease (KD) is the leading cause of acquired heart in children United States. The etiology unknown. Data regarding presence T cell activation and its potential role pathogenesis have been conflicting. Expansion cells bearing V beta 2 8 has recently reported acute phase KD, which suggests that a superantigen may mediate process. To further assess phenotypes were evaluated by using flow cytometry large series patients, acutely during convalescence. Included this analysis assessments...
Objective. To seek insights into the heterogeneity of macrophage activation syndrome (MAS) complicating systemic juvenile idiopathic arthritis (sJIA) through analysis a large patient sample collected in multinational survey. Methods. International pediatric rheumatologists and hemato-oncologists entered their data, retrospectively, Web-based database. The demographic, clinical, laboratory, histopathologic, therapeutic, outcome data were analyzed relation to (1) geographic location caring...
1) To determine the number of primary care clinic visits attributable to musculoskeletal pain (MSP) in children >/=3 and <15 years age. 2) describe demographic characteristics this population assessed for limb/back pain. 3) characterize etiology an urban general pediatric Madrid, Spain.Prospective evaluation 1000 consecutive clinic. Inclusion criteria were age requested by family or patient. All consultations related MSP recorded via standard protocol data record form.During study period, 61...
Abstract Background This study aimed to assess the baseline characteristics and clinical outcomes of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) in pediatric patients with rheumatic musculoskeletal diseases (RMD) identify risk factors associated symptomatic or severe defined as hospital admission, intensive care admission death. Methods An observational longitudinal was conducted during first year SARS-CoV-2 pandemic (March 2020–March 2021). All attended at rheumatology outpatient clinics six...
Objective To evaluate the long-term safety profile of anakinra in patients with systemic juvenile idiopathic arthritis (sJIA). Methods Data from sJIA enrolled Pharmachild registry ( ClinicalTrials.gov : NCT03932344 ) prior to September 30, 2018, and treated were analyzed. The study endpoints occurrence non-serious adverse events (SAEs) at least moderate severity SAEs, including macrophage activation syndrome (MAS), duration treatment reasons for discontinuation. All analyzed overall by...
To define the toxicity of cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator gene (CFTR) therapy with a replication-deficient recombinant adenovirus (Av1Cf2) in nonhuman primate model, 10(10) plaque forming units (pfu) were instilled directly through bronchoscope into right lung 5 macaques, and lower dose 4 x 10(6) pfu was administered to 1 macaque. One sham-treated control received phosphate-buffered saline (PBS). The macaques evaluated sequentially by clinical examination, vital signs,...
Introduction Juvenile localized scleroderma (jlSc) usually responds well to treatment with methotrexate or mycophenolate. In case of nonresponse partial response, tocilizumab (TOC) appears be a promising option. Methods Participants the Pediatric Rheumatology Email Board were asked report patients jlSc treated TOC. Results Six centers responded and reported 11 patients. The mean age at disease onset was 5.5 years. Disease duration time initiation TOC 4.5 A total 5 had linear subtype, 2 Parry...
To develop and test a hybrid measure of muscle strength for juvenile dermatomyositis (JDM), which is based on the combination Manual Muscle Testing in 8 muscles (MMT-8) Childhood Myositis Assessment Scale (CMAS) but more comprehensive than former feasible latter.The MMT-8/CMAS (hMC) composed all items MMT-8 3 CMAS: time head lift, assessment abdominal muscles, floor rise. The score ranges 0-100, with 100 indicating normal strength. Validation procedures were conducted using large...
