Article Synopsis
- The study evaluated the effectiveness of two sets of classification criteria for Granulomatosis with Polyangiitis (GPA) in pediatric patients, comparing the ACR/EULAR criteria with the Ankara 2008 criteria.
- Data from 77 pediatric patients with GPA were analyzed, revealing high sensitivity (94.8%) and specificity (95.3%) for the Ankara criteria, while the ACR/EULAR criteria showed similar rates (89.6% sensitivity and 96.3% specificity).
- The results indicate that both classification criteria are reliable and perform similarly in diagnosing GPA in children.
Objectives: Assessment of active synovitis is crucial for the management of juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA). We aimed to investigate the correlation of musculoskeletal ultrasound (MSUS) and clinical examination results and relate them to arthritis relapse rate.
Methods: JIA patients with questionable presence of active arthritis (Q-joints) and controls (JIA and healthy children) were recruited.
In conclusion we can claim that the determination of total LDH activity in the amniotic fluid and the mother's blood serum is not a suitable method for diagnosing intrauterine danger to the foetus from hypoxia. It is interesting to note that the high activity of the third and fourth LDH fraction in the amniotic fluid does not correspond to their activity in the mother's serum.
