Mashup Score: 050th Year of Publication: Progress in Rheumatology During the 2010s - 7 month(s) ago
In this edition of The Journal of Rheumatology , I will be bringing to your attention the following 6 articles from the 2010s that had, and continue to have, a significant impact in rheumatology. Although I usually choose 3 papers, I have chosen 6 that can be grouped into 3 categories. The first category has a single paper that describes a modification of the American College of Rheumatology (ACR) classification of fibromyalgia (FM),1 the second category contains 2 papers on the use of the internet and social media in rheumatology,2,3 and the third contains 3 papers on long-term outcome studies in rheumatoid arthritis (RA).4-6 The first paper I wish to bring to your attention is “Fibromyalgia criteria and severity scales for clinical and epidemiological studies: a modification of the ACR Preliminary Diagnostic Criteria for Fibromyalgia” by Wolfe et al. … Address correspondence to Dr. E.D. Silverman, Editor-in-Chief, The Journal of Rheumatology, 365 Bloor Street East, Suite 901, Toronto

Mashup Score: 0How Is Pulmonary Function Assessed in Patients With Juvenile Systemic Sclerosis? Do We Have a Good Clinical Standard? - 7 month(s) ago
To the Editor: Juvenile systemic sclerosis (jSSc) is a rare but potentially life-threatening disease, with a prevalence of 3 to 4 in 1,000,000 children. Similar to that in adults,1 interstitial lung disease (ILD) is the major cause of morbidity in children with systemic sclerosis (SSc) and occurs at similar prevalences.2 The rarity of jSSc has made large-scale studies challenging; thus, much of jSSc-ILD care is extrapolated from adult recommendations. Adult SSc-ILD clinical studies have demonstrated that early detection3 and careful monitoring of ILD, including responsiveness to immunosuppressive therapies, is critical to improve pulmonary outcomes. As such, there is a great need to develop jSSc-specific guidelines for ILD, which will require large, multinational cohorts with standardization of detection and monitoring techniques. Currently, detection of ILD is typically made by a combination of high-resolution chest computed tomography (HRCT) and pulmonary function tests (PFTs). Where

Mashup Score: 1Do Patterns of Early Disease Severity Predict Grade 12 Academic Achievement in Youths With Childhood-Onset Chronic Rheumatic Diseases? - 7 month(s) ago
Objective To test the association of early disease severity with grade 12 standards test performance in individuals with childhood-onset chronic rheumatic diseases (ChildCRDs), including juvenile arthritis and systemic autoimmune rheumatic diseases. Methods We used linked provincial administrative data to identify patients with ChildCRDs born between 1979 and 1998 in Manitoba, Canada. Primary outcomes were Language and Arts Achievement Index (LAI) scores and Math Achievement Index (MAI) scores from grade 12 standards test results as well as enrollment data. The secondary outcome was enrollment in grade 12 by 17 years of age. Latent class trajectory analysis identified disease severity groups using physician visits following diagnosis. Multivariable linear regression tested the association of disease severity groups with LAI and MAI scores, and logistic regression tested the association of disease severity with age-appropriate enrollment, after adjusting for sociodemographic factors and
