Paracentral Acute Middle Maculopathy as a Specific Sign of Arteritic Anterior Ischemic Optic Neuropathy.

Purpose: The purpose of this study is to assess the diagnostic accuracy of paracentral acute middle maculopathy (PAMM) in the setting of anterior ischemic optic neuropathy (AION) to distinguish arteritic (A-AION) from nonarteritic (NA-AION) type.

Design: Retrospective cross-sectional diagnostic evaluation.

Methods: PAMM was evaluated by 3 physicians blinded to diagnosis using macular spectral-domain optical coherence tomography.

Axial Articular Manifestations in Primary Sjögren Syndrome: Association With Spondyloarthritis.

Objective: To assess the prevalence of axial articular manifestations (AAMs) in patients with primary Sjögren syndrome (pSS), to investigate whether these symptoms reveal an associated spondyloarthritis (SpA), and to assess their therapeutic management.

Methods: Among 148 consecutive patients with pSS fulfilling European League Against Rheumatism (EULAR)/American College of Rheumatology 2019 classification criteria followed between 2010 and 2018, we selected those who presented with AAMs. The association with SpA was retained when patients fulfilled Assessment of SpA international Society criteria.
