Objective: This systematic search and review aimed to evaluate the available literature on discontinuation of adalimumab and other tumor necrosis factor inhibitors (TNFi) for patients with well-controlled chronic inflammatory arthritides.
Methods: We conducted a publication search on adalimumab discontinuation from 2000-2023 using PubMed, CINAHL, EMBASE, and Cochrane Library. Included studies evaluated adalimumab discontinuation approaches, tapering schemes, and outcomes including successful discontinuation and recapture after flare, in patients with well-controlled disease.

Introduction: Joint tissues affected by inflammatory arthritis (IA) create hypoxic microenvironments that sustain the inflammatory response. Although targeting molecules in hypoxia-induced pathways has provided valuable insights into potential novel therapies for various types of IA, progress remains preclinical, and no clinical trials have been conducted for IA.
Methods: A literature search was conducted to create a narrative review exploring the role of hypoxia and its signaling pathways in IA pathogenesis, as well as the potential and future directions for IA therapies that target hypoxia-induced molecules before moving forward to clinical applications.

Sacroiliitis in children is usually connected with one of the subtypes of juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA), such as enthesitis-related arthritis, psoriatic arthritis, or undifferentiated arthritis. The main diagnostic method is magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the sacroiliac joints, which can reveal bone marrow edema (BME) as a sign of an active inflammation process. This research aimed to retrospectively investigate the associations between the clinical presentation, laboratory test results, and MRI results of the sacroiliac joints of children.

This is a case report of a one-year-and-nine-month-old girl with multiple guttate psoriasis skin lesions, non-traumatic knee arthritis, and no family history of autoimmune diseases. Laboratory tests revealed no suggestive markers of juvenile psoriatic arthritis (JPsA), while the dermatological examination described scaly erythematous lesions with a positive Auspitz sign. The diagnosis was confirmed by a skin biopsy and histopathological examination.
