    Objective The objectives of this study were to compare the clinical features of patients with SLE with and without myopathy and to describe the muscle biopsy features of patients with SLE myopathy. Methods This nested case–control study included all subjects enrolled in the Hopkins Lupus Cohort database from May 1987 to June 2016. Subjects with elevated creatine kinase along with evidence of…

    Idiopathic inflammatory myopathies, also known as myositis, are a heterogeneous group of autoimmune disorders usually characterized by chronic inflammation of the muscle. This Primer reviews the epidemiology, pathophysiology, diagnosis, treatment, patient quality of life and future research needs of this group of diseases.

    Dermatomyositis - 2 year(s) ago

    Background and Objectives Discoveries of dermatomyositis-specific antibodies (DMSAs) in patients with dermatomyositis raised awareness of various myopathologic features among antibody subtypes. However, only perifascicular atrophy and perifascicular myxovirus resistant protein A (MxA) overexpression were officially included as definitive pathologic criteria for dermatomyositis classification. We…
