Clinical manifestations, treatment and prognosis of juvenile idiopathic arthritis with pulmonary involvement in China: a single centre study.

Objectives: In recent years, the distinct clinical presentations and elevated mortality rates of various subtypes of juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA) with pulmonary involvement have garnered significant attention. This study aimed to elucidate the clinical characteristics of pulmonary involvement in patients with JIA to improve clinicians' knowledge.

Methods: This single-centre retrospective study analysed the baseline data, treatment options, follow-up of sixty patients of JIA with pulmonary involvement in China.

Paraneoplastic pemphigus misdiagnosed as juvenile dermatomyositis: A case report.

Paraneoplastic pemphigus (PNP) is a rare autoimmune skin disease closely related to tumors, characterized by a maculopapular rash with mucosal pain, bronchiole occlusion, and respiratory failure may occur over time, even resulting in death. We report a rare case of a child with autoimmune PNP misdiagnosed as juvenile dermatomyositis (JDM), and summarize the key points of differentiation of clinical manifestations and auxiliary examinations of PNP and JDM. When the diagnosis is not clear because the patient has features not typical of JDM, then skin biopsy and other diagnostic studies should be considered prior to any immunosuppressive therapy, as this could potentially obscure and delay the diagnosis of malignancy.

Clinical Presentation and Treatment of Juvenile Idiopathic Arthritis Combined with Lung Disease: A Narrative Review.

Juvenile idiopathic Arthritis (JIA) is a common rheumatic disorder in children that can cause multiple systems to be affected simultaneously, leading to severe clinical symptoms and a high mortality rate in those with pulmonary involvement. Pleurisy is the most common manifestation of pulmonary involvement. At the same time, other conditions, such as pneumonia, interstitial lung disease, occlusive bronchiectasis, and alveolar protein deposition, have been increasingly reported in recent years.

Automated interpretation of congenital heart disease from multi-view echocardiograms.

Congenital heart disease (CHD) is the most common birth defect and the leading cause of neonate death in China. Clinical diagnosis can be based on the selected 2D key-frames from five views. Limited by the availability of multi-view data, most methods have to rely on the insufficient single view analysis.
