Biallelic Hypomorphic Mutations In A Linear Deubiquitinase Define Otulipenia, An Early-Onset Autoinflammatory Disease
(Natl Acad Sciences, 2016)
Systemic autoinflammatory diseases are caused by mutations in genes that function in innate immunity. Here, we report an autoinflammatory disease caused by loss-of-function mutations in OTULIN (FAM105B), encoding a ...
Biologic Therapy in Primary Systemic Vasculitis of the Young
(Oxford Univ Press, 2009)
Methods. This was a retrospective descriptive case series of children with PSV treated with biologic therapy between February 2002 and November 2007. Primary retrospective outcome assessment measures were: daily corticosteroid ...
Comparison Of The Efficacy Of Once- And Twice-Daily Colchicine Dosage In Pediatric Patients With Familial Mediterranean Fever – A Randomized Controlled Noninferiority Trial
(2016)
Background In this study, we examined the efficacy and safety of a once-daily dosage schema of colchicine compared with a twice-daily dosage schema in pediatric patients with familial Mediterranean fever (FMF). Methods In ...
Early- Onset Stroke and Vasculopathy Associated With Mutations in Ada2
(Massachusetts Medical Soc, 2014)
BackgroundWe observed a syndrome of intermittent fevers, early-onset lacunar strokes and other neurovascular manifestations, livedoid rash, hepatosplenomegaly, and systemic vasculopathy in three unrelated patients. We ...

Guidelines For The Genetic Diagnosis Of Hereditary Recurrent Fevers
(2012)
Hereditary recurrent fevers (HRFs) are a group of monogenic autoinflammatory diseases characterised by recurrent bouts of fever and serosal inflammation that are caused by pathogenic variants in genes important for the ...
An Overlap Syndrome Involving Autoimmune Hepatitis And Systemic Lupus Erythematosus In Childhood
(Baishideng Publishing Group Inc, 2007)
We report a 12 years old female patient with an overlap syndrome involving autoimmune hepatitis (AIH) and systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). The patient presented with jaundice, hepatosplenomegaly, malaise, polyarthralgia, ...
Hla-Drb1*11 And Variants Of The Mhc Class Ii Locus Are Strong Risk Factors For Systemic Juvenile Idiopathic Arthritis
(Natl Acad Sciences, 2015)
Systemic juvenile idiopathic arthritis (sJIA) is an often severe, potentially life-threatening childhood inflammatory disease, the pathophysiology of which is poorly understood. To determine whether genetic variation within ...
Coq6 Mutations In Human Patients Produce Nephrotic Syndrome With Sensorineural Deafness
(Amer Soc Clinical Investigation Inc, 2011)
Steroid-resistant nephrotic syndrome (SRNS) is a frequent cause of end-stage renal failure. Identification of single-gene causes of SRNS has generated some insights into its pathogenesis; however, additional genes and ...
