There are particular features of the disease and nuances to diagnosis and management in a pediatric population, which must be appreciated to improve clinical care.Recent findings: Pediatric-specific epidemiological studies highlight that pediatric APS is quite rare with incidence in some populations of 0.2 per 100 000. There are new classification criteria in APS, which include a wider range of clinical features increasingly identified in registry data and case series of pediatric APS, though validation in pediatric APS is still needed. There is a particularly high proportion of pediatric APS patients with noncriteria antiphospholipid antibodies (aPL). Recurrent thrombosis is especially common in pediatric APS, highlighting the difficulty of management of this disease with high morbidity in children.Summary: Recent research has enhanced understanding of pediatric-specific APS epidemiology, laboratory findings, the wide variety of clinical features, and challenges in successful treatment. Future directions could include evaluation of potentially unique features in pediatric pathophysiology, an evaluation of the new APS classification criteria in children, broader prospective data on clinical and laboratory features, and a continued search for treatment beyond committing young patients to lifelong anticoagulation.","PeriodicalId":11145,"journal":{"name":"Current opinion in rheumatology","volume":" ","pages":"176-184"},"PeriodicalIF":5.2,"publicationDate":"2025-05-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11945550/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143467308","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It explores mechanisms by which the gut microbiota may influence SpA pathogenesis and considers the therapeutic implications of targeting the microbiome in SpA treatment.Recent findings: The pathogenesis of SpA is multifactorial, involving genetic predisposition, external factors and dysregulation of the immune system. Recent studies have identified alterations in the gut microbiome of patients with SpA, including changes in microbial diversity and specific taxa linked to disease activity. HLA-B27 status seems to influence gut microbiota composition, potentially impacting disease progression. In HLA-B27 transgenic rats, the association between gut microbiota and SpA development has been confirmed, supporting findings from human studies. A compromised gut barrier, influenced by proteins like zonulin, may allow microbial antigens to translocate, triggering immune responses associated with SpA.Summary: These findings highlight the potential for microbiota-modulating therapies, such as probiotics, prebiotics, diet and exercise, in managing SpA. However, methodological variability in human studies exposes the need for more rigorous research to better understand these associations. This may offer the opportunity to refine treatment strategies, offering a personalized approach to managing the disease.","PeriodicalId":11145,"journal":{"name":"Current opinion in rheumatology","volume":" ","pages":"199-206"},"PeriodicalIF":5.2,"publicationDate":"2025-05-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143448553","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}

Although concerns with training datasets, ethical considerations, and the need for a major utilization of explainable artificial intelligence are still ongoing challenges, significant advancements have been made in recent years. In this review, we explore the most recent applications of artificial intelligence in pediatric rheumatology, with a special focus on machine learning models and their outcomes.Recent findings: Supervised and unsupervised machine learning models have been largely employed to identify key biomarkers, predict treatment responses, and stratify patients based on disease presentation and progression. In addition, innovative artificial intelligence driven imaging tools and noninvasive diagnostic methods have improved diagnostic accuracy and emerged as encouraging solutions for identifying inflammation and disease activity. Large language models have been utilized for patient-based questions with promising results. Nevertheless, critical examination and human oversight are still crucial in interpreting artificial intelligence's outputs.Summary: Artificial intelligence is revolutionizing pediatric rheumatology by improving diagnosis and disease classification, patient stratification and personalized treatment.

The most frequent initial manifestations include arthritis, followed by diarrhea, abdominal pain, and weight loss. Half the world's population is exposed to T. whipplei , but only one in a million develop WD. This suggests that acquired or inborn errors of immunity (IEI) may underlie WD. Anti-TNF treatment is a well established risk factor for flare-ups of WD.Recent findings: We have also reported two rare IEI in patients with WD. Six WD patients from two unrelated kindreds were found to have autosomal dominant IRF4 deficiency acting via a mechanism of haploinsufficiency. These patients were otherwise healthy. In addition, a single patient with a history of WD and other infections was found to have autosomal recessive CD4 deficiency.Summary: Rare IEI can underlie WD. Human genetic studies of patients with WD are warranted for the development of precision medicine for affected kindreds and to improve our understanding of the pathogenesis of this rare infectious disease.","PeriodicalId":11145,"journal":{"name":"Current opinion in rheumatology","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":5.2,"publicationDate":"2025-03-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143585122","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}

This manuscript summarizes the current understanding of genetic and epigenetic contributors to SLE risk, manifestations and outcomes.Recent findings: Though SLE is a mechanistically complex disease, we are beginning to understand the impact of rare and common gene variants on disease expression and associated outcomes. Recent trans -ancestral and multigenerational studies suggest that differential genetic and environmental impacts shape phenotypic variability between age-groups and ancestries. High genetic burden associates with young age at disease-onset, organ involvement, and severity. Additional epigenetic impact contributes to disease-onset and severity, including SLE-phenotypes caused by rare single gene variants. Studies aiming to identify predictors of organ involvement and disease outcomes promise future patient stratification towards individualized treatment and care.Summary: An improved understanding of genetic variation and epigenetic marks explain phenotypic differences between age-groups and ancestries, promising their future exploitation for diagnostic, prognostic and therapeutic considerations.","PeriodicalId":11145,"journal":{"name":"Current opinion in rheumatology","volume":" ","pages":"149-163"},"PeriodicalIF":5.2,"publicationDate":"2025-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11789615/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142806470","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It falls under the umbrella term of rheumatic diseases, which describes a group of closely related yet distinct disorders with many common underlying molecular pathways. Despite the distinct clinical manifestation of each disorder, the shared therapeutic strategies attest to the commonality of cellular and molecular underpinnings. Herein we provide a concise yet comprehensive overview of the interleukin (IL)-23/IL-17 axis and its involvement in mechanistic pathways leading to the pathogenesis of this dual skin and joint clinical manifestation which is characteristic of psoriatic arthritis and other rheumatic diseases.Recent findings: The interconnection between activated innate immune cells and adaptive immunity has transformed current thinking to include other organs such as the bone marrow as potential tissue of disease origin. A plethora of animal models and genetic studies converge on the critical role of IL-23/IL-17 axis, and highlight the importance of myeloid cell activation as common pathways between autoinflammatory and autoimmune diseases and chronic inflammation. These findings underscore the intricate immune mechanisms involved in inflammatory arthritis and highlight molecular mechanisms in disease pathogenesis.Summary: These insights pave the way for the development of novel diagnostic and therapeutic strategies, with a focus on translating these findings into improved clinical practice.","PeriodicalId":11145,"journal":{"name":"Current opinion in rheumatology","volume":" ","pages":"136-141"},"PeriodicalIF":5.2,"publicationDate":"2025-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11779588/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142521309","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
