The novel definition of positive finding of sacroiliac joint (SIJ) and spine magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) enabled to diagnose axSpA earlier than plain radiography. In addition, novel MRI protocol such as volumetric interpolated breath-hold examination improved detection rate of structural change of axial joints in axSpA, Nuclear medicine imaging showed potential for diagnosis and predicting progression of axSpA. Ultrasonography guided injection is useful for controlling local joint pain of axSpA. AxSpA is characterised by pain and inflammation of axial joints such as the SIJ and spine. Detection of active inflammatory lesions using MRI has expanded the subtypes of axSpA to include non-radiographic axSpA (nr-axSpA). In addition, many other imaging techniques have improved, and can now detect structural and early inflammatory lesions of the axial joints. In addition, a method for quantitative measurement of syndesmophytes by CTSS has been developed; this method is more accurate and sensitive than the mSASSS for detecting spinal structural damage. Here, we discuss the current knowledge and clinical advances in computed tomography, MRI, nuclear medicine imaging, and ultrasonography as imaging methods for axSpA.","PeriodicalId":10761,"journal":{"name":"Current Rheumatology Reports","volume":"27 1","pages":"7"},"PeriodicalIF":5.7,"publicationDate":"2024-12-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142812644","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In addition, the potential of menopause to modulate/increase CVD risk in women with these diseases will also be explored. It is of major interest to gain more understanding into this topic because it can have meaningful implications for screening and treatment of CVD risk in these women.Recent findings: Literature shows that psoriasis, PsA, SpA and menopause itself cause higher CVD risks and higher CVD prevalence. This is predominantly explained by the increase of chronic systemic inflammation. No existing literature conclusively demonstrates or studies specifically whether the menopause amplifies this effect caused by psoriasis, PsA, or SpA.Conclusion: Differences in pathophysiology of psoriasis, SpA and PsA versus the menopausal transition could suggest that menopause may increase the risk of CVD. However, the hypothesis that menopause represents an additional CV risk factor in women with psoriasis, PsA and SpA still needs to be thoroughly investigated and more clinical studies are required for further understanding and conclusions.","PeriodicalId":10761,"journal":{"name":"Current Rheumatology Reports","volume":"27 1","pages":"6"},"PeriodicalIF":5.7,"publicationDate":"2024-12-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142784370","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

There is ongoing research into agents that can be used to intensify initial treatment and accumulating evidence supporting the use of certain rescue regimens for refractory disease over others. There is promise surrounding a new coronary artery aneurysm prediction model. Research into the post-acute morbidity of KD continues. The COVID-19 pandemic temporarily reduced the incidence of KD. The NLRP3 inflammasome plays a key role in KD pathogenesis. Intensified initial treatment benefits high-risk patients, yet no intensification regimen shows superiority over another. Corticosteroids, infliximab, or combination therapy with IVIg plus another agent may be superior rescue regimens compared to IVIg alone for refractory KD. The Son score, developed in North America, predicted coronary artery lesions in Japanese and Italian cohorts. Patients with a history of KD may carry long-term physical and emotional burdens that persist into adulthood yet appear to have typical neurocognitive development.

Biological agents, including anti-TNF, anti-IL17, and anti-IL6 therapies, can be safely and effectively used in the treatment of ReA when conventional therapies fail.

Its definition encompasses the non-inflammatory pain of RA and describes pain that is not driven by inflamed joints or compromised nerves, but that is instead driven by a functional reorganisation of the central nervous system (CNS).

Unfortunately, immune related adverse events (irAEs) are common, including rheumatologic adverse events. These rheumatologic irAEs include de novo rheumatoid arthritis-like presentations or flares of pre-existing rheumatoid arthritis, collectively called ICI-associated rheumatoid arthritis. In this article we review the different mechanisms of disease activity and management approaches including use of conventional (cs) DMARDs and biologic (b) DMARDs in this patient population. Other forms of ICI-induced inflammatory arthritis e.g., PMR-like or Spondylarthritis-type IA, are beyond the scope of this review.Recent findings: The heterogeneous presentations of inflammatory arthritis in patients receiving immune checkpoint inhibitors has made this a challenging area to study. Nonetheless, recent studies are providing better understanding on the mechanisms of de novo disease and flares in patients with rheumatoid arthritis. About half of patients with pre-existing rheumatoid arthritis flare after receiving checkpoint inhibitors. Persistent arthritis is often encountered in patients receiving combination immune checkpoint inhibitors. Outcomes on overall survival do not differ in rheumatoid arthritis patients receiving checkpoint inhibitors compared to their non-arthritis counterparts. Rheumatologist play a critical role in the management of active rheumatoid arthritis induced by checkpoint inhibitors. Collaboration with oncology colleagues will continue to be a crucial component in providing quality care to these patients. While the use of glucocorticoids is often the first line therapy for active inflammatory arthritic disease, we recommend earlier consideration of DMARDs just as we inverted the treatment pyramid several decades ago, for rheumatoid arthritis.","PeriodicalId":10761,"journal":{"name":"Current Rheumatology Reports","volume":"27 1","pages":"3"},"PeriodicalIF":5.7,"publicationDate":"2024-11-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142715448","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
