AI Article Synopsis
Article Abstract
Objectives: The objectives of this systematic review were to evaluate the correlation between Ultrasound (US) and Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) in patients with JIA and to investigate the association with Temporomandibular Disorders (TMD).
Materials And Methods: The protocol was registered in PROSPERO (CRD42022312734). Databases Medline, Embase, Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials, Scopus, Web of Science, Latin American and Caribbean Health Sciences Literature were searched. Eligibility criteria were patients with JIA subjected to diagnostic evaluation using US and MRI. No language restrictions were applied. After duplicate study selection, data extraction and risk of bias assessment according to Cochrane were conducted. Data extraction of patients was conducted by two independent authors.
Results: Five observational studies were included with 217 participants (153 females and 64 males; mean age 11.3 years). The quality of the studies was overall satisfactory. The correlation between US and MRI in children with JIA was 'moderate' in acute arthritis while the chronic arthritis correlated positively in two studies.
Conclusions: Even if MRI remains the more accurate imaging modality for the detection of TMJ of patients with JIA, US may be useful to early detect pathological conditions and to address the patient with JIA and putative TMJ involvement to a more accurate diagnosis with MRI and consequent appropriate treatment management.
Clinical Relevance: MRI should be deemed necessary only secondary to less-invasive assessments with US just to confirm the diagnosis or to increase sensitivity, accuracy of positive predictive values detected.

Gent University Hospital, Gent, Belgium; ZNA, Antwerp, Belgium.
Background: The Paediatric Rheumatology International Trials Organisation (PRINTO) recently undertook an effort to better harmonize the pediatric and adult arthritis criteria. These provisional criteria are being refined for optimal performance. We aimed to investigate differences between patients who did and did not fulfill these PRINTO criteria amongst youth diagnosed with juvenile spondyloarthritis (SpA) that met axial juvenile SpA (axJSpA) classification criteria.

Associations Between the Polymorphisms in the Coding Sequence of SLCO1B1 and Blood Lipid Levels Before and After Treatment by Atorvastatin in the Chinese Han Adults with Dyslipidemia.
Pharmgenomics Pers Med
December 2024
Department of Cardiology, Tangshan Gongren Hospital, Tangshan, Hebei, People's Republic of China.
Purpose: Atorvastatin is commonly used to treat dyslipidemia; however, individual responses vary considerably. This study endeavors to evaluate the relationship between polymorphisms in the coding sequence (CDS) of SLCO1B1 gene and blood lipid levels before and after atorvastatin treatment among the Chinese Han adults with dyslipidemia.
Patients And Methods: A total of 165 Chinese Han adults undergoing atorvastatin therapy were enrolled in this study and followed up quarterly.
Orbital and sinus rhabdomyosarcoma with concurrent central retinal artery occlusion: A case report.

Department of Ophthalmology, The Sixth Affiliated Hospital of Jinan University, Dongguan 523000, Guangdong Province, China.
Background: Both rhabdomyosarcoma (RMS) and central retinal artery occlusion (CRAO) are rare medical diseases, and their simultaneous occurrence in the same patient is extraordinarily uncommon. This study presents a comprehensive overview of the clinical manifestations, diagnostic imaging results, and therapeutic interventions of a patient with both conditions.
Case Summary: In this report, we present a 30-year-old male who presented with significant protrusion, pain and vision loss and was diagnosed with RMS in the orbit and sinus with CRAO.
New cheaper human papilloma virus mass screening strategy reduces cervical cancer incidence in Changsha city: A clinical trial.

Hunan Provincial Key Laboratory of Regional Hereditary Birth Defects Prevention and Control, Changsha Hospital for Maternal & Child Health Care, Hunan Normal University, Changsha 410001, Hunan Province, China.
Background: Cervical cancer is the second leading cause of death in women worldwide, second only to breast cancer. Around 80% of women have been infected with human papillomavirus (HPV) in their lifetime. Early screening and treatment are effective means of preventing cervical cancer, but due to economic reasons, many parts of the world do not have free screening programs to protect women's health.
