Article Synopsis
  • The study aimed to understand how pediatric rheumatologists treat systemic juvenile idiopathic arthritis (s-JIA) that leads to macrophage activation syndrome (MAS), and to evaluate the effectiveness of dexamethasone palmitate (DEX-P) in this context.
  • Conducted across 13 centers in Japan, the research involved 28 patients and assessed treatment methods and any adverse effects observed.
  • Findings showed that the most common first-line treatments were methylprednisolone (mPSL) and Cyclosporine A (CsA), with DEX-P used successfully as a second-line treatment for those unresponsive to corticosteroids, without serious side effects reported.
