Article Synopsis
- A case study discusses a 38-year-old female with clinically amyopathic dermatomyositis (CADM) displaying symptoms like vasculopathic ulcers, mechanic's hands, and interstitial lung disease (ILD).
- *Her diagnosis included normal muscle enzyme levels and the presence of specific antibodies (anti-Mi2 and anti-MDA-5) confirmed through immunoblotting.
- *Following an inadequate response to standard treatments, the addition of tofacitinib, which inhibits the JAK-STAT pathway and type 1 interferon, resulted in significant improvement in her skin and lung condition over six months.
