In recent years, physicians have become more aware of the relationship between exposure to adjuvants and the development of underlying signs and symptoms that may correspond to ASIA syndrome. The current evidence supporting its existence is still contradictory.

In clinical practice, physicians can find cases of ASIA syndrome. However, the evidence is still debated on the relationship between adjuvants and autoimmune clinical manifestations. ASIA syndrome classification criteria require validation in various populations before being applied to select patients for clinical studies. It is necessary to identify the risk factors for ASIA syndrome to understand its pathophysiology and make a timely diagnosis.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":37643,"journal":{"name":"Revista Colombiana de Reumatologia","volume":"31 3","pages":"Pages 380-389"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135509499","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
