An initial set of 32 QIs was developed after a systematic search of the literature. These were presented to members of a Delphi panel composed of pediatric rheumatologists and other relevant stakeholders from the Asia Pacific League of Associations for Rheumatology Pediatric Special Interest Group (APLAR-Pediatric SIG). After each round, the mean scores for validity and reliability, level of disagreement, and median absolute deviation from the mean were calculated.Results: The panelists were presented with 32 QIs in two rounds of voting, resulting in the formulation of a final set of 22 QIs for JIA. These QIs are categorized within six domains of care, including access to care, clinical assessment, medications and medication monitoring, screening for comorbidities, counseling, and self-efficacy and satisfaction with care.Conclusion: These QIs have been developed to evaluate and improve the quality of care provided to children with JIA, aiming to enhance health outcomes and ensure that healthcare services are tailored to the unique needs of this patient population.","PeriodicalId":56161,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Rheumatic Diseases","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":2.2,"publicationDate":"2024-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11439632/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142360703","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

OPK is usually clinically asymptomatic, but some patients (15%~20%) may have arthralgia and synovitis. OPK may be associated with rheumatic diseases and might lead to unreasonable over-examination in real clinical practice. Single cases of the OPK together with ankylosing spondylitis (AS) have been described. Here we present a 33-year-old patient diagnosed with AS coexisting with OPK. In the case considered, the combination of AS and OPK accompanied with a high activity of inflammation, peripheral arthritis, a rapid rate of structural progression in axial skeleton, inefficiency of disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs and nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, a lack of response to anti interleukin-17 and a good response to a tumor necrosis factor inhibitor golimumab. We describe the important points of differential diagnosis associated with the identification of focal changes in bone tissue, especially neoplastic lesion. Foci revealed had typical localization, so, acquaintance of practicing doctors with such rare cases would minimize unnecessary examinations.","PeriodicalId":56161,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Rheumatic Diseases","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":2.2,"publicationDate":"2024-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11439639/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142360701","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Disease activity assessment tools such as the Disease Activity Score in 28 joints (DAS28), Simplified Disease Activity Index, Clinical Disease Activity Index, and Routine Assessment of Patient Index Data 3 have been internationally validated and recognised. In Korea, the government initiated a quality assessment program mandating routine measurement of DAS28 to ensure high-quality RA management. However, whether the DAS28 is the most suitable disease activity measurement tool in the Korean clinical environment is a topic worth considering. In this review, we comprehensively examined disease activity measurement tools and their performance in the Korean context. We also propose a new strategy for measuring RA disease activity, tailored to the different situations encountered by physicians in routine clinical practice. This review may contribute to the improvement of the quality of care for patients with RA in Korea.","PeriodicalId":56161,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Rheumatic Diseases","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":2.2,"publicationDate":"2024-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11439630/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142360698","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
