The evaluation of myocarditis in patients with Still's disease; clinical findings from the multicentre international AIDA Network Still's Disease Registry.

Objective: To evaluate the cardiac involvement in patients with Still's disease with a focus on myocarditis included in the multicenter AIDA (AutoInflammatory Disease Alliance) network Still's disease registry. To exploit the predictive factors for myocarditis in deriving a clinical risk patient profile for this severe manifestation.

Methods: A multicenter observational study was built up assessing consecutive patients with Still's disease characterized by the cardiac involvement among those included in the AIDA Network Still's Disease Registry.

Methodology and clinical utility of longitudinal UBA1 tracking in VEXAS syndrome.

Vacuoles, E1 enzyme, X-linked, autoinflammatory, somatic (VEXAS) is a haemato-inflammatory syndrome genetically defined by somatic mutations in the X-linked UBA1 gene, typically Val/Thr/Leu substitutions at the Met41 hotspot. Clinical manifestations are heterogeneous and refractory to most haemato-rheumatological treatments. To date, no guidelines exist for the management of VEXAS, and scarce is the evidence on methodology and clinical significance of longitudinal UBA1 clonal burden evaluation upon therapy.

Retention rates of different Janus kinase inhibitors in rheumatoid arthritis: experience from a large monocentric cohort.

Objective: The efficacy of Janus kinase inhibitors (JAKi) in rheumatoid arthritis (RA) has been clearly shown. However, information on comparative drug retention rates (DRRs) of different JAKi is heterogeneous. The aim of this study was to compute and compare DRRs of different JAKi in a large cohort of RA patients.
