a pt comes with pain in both wrists , distal interphalygeal, metacarpophalyngeal jts wht r diffrential diagnosis
rheumatoid arthritis SLE viral arthritis hepatitis B EBV Parvovirus B19
parvovirus b19 adult dont hve slapped cheek as in children usually adult who comes alot in contact with children like kindergarden teacher
how to differentiate rheumatoid arthritis and SLE
systemic symptoms present in SLE
a pt comes with involvement of knee from yrs
monoarticular chronic 》 osteoarthritis no joint swelling and redness noninflammtory thus ⬇️ osteoarthritis
pt comes with pain and swelling of knee from 2-3 days
monoarticular acute inflammatory

septic arthritis gout
pt comes with migratory arthritis wht r diffrential
lyme ds
gonococcal arthritis
rheumatic fever
oligoarticular asymmetrical <5-6 joints involved wht r the diffrential
spondyloarthopathies
osteoarthritis
ANA VERY SPECIFIC FOR LUPUS ARE
ant DDNA
ANTI SMITH
anti histone ab is seen in
drug induced lupus
anti SSA (anti rho )
neonatal lupus
sjogren
anti ssb( anti LA )
sjogren
anti centromere is seen in
CREST
anticentromere antibodies are specific for
limited form of scleroderma
antibody specific for diffuse scleroderma
antitopoisomerase I ie antiscleroderma 70
clinical features of scleroderma
1.Raynauds syndrome
caused by vasospasm and thickening of vessel wall in digits
cold temperature and stress brings first blanching 》cyanosis》reactive hyperemia
2.cutaneous fibrosis
tightening of skin and face leads to sclerodactyly refers to claw hand
3.esophageal dismotility
4.lung, heart,renal involvement
difference bw diffuse and limited scleroderma
diffuse limited
skin involvement limited to distal extremities
widespread sparing of trunk
2.rapid onset delayed onset
3.significant organ involved organs involved late
4.no anticentromere anticentromere +
antitopoisomerase
diffrential diagnosis of raynauds phenomenon
PRIMARY no cause SECONDARY scleroderma SLE vasculitis certain medication bblocker, nictotine,bleomycin thromboangitis obliteratans
drugs causing lupus
quinidine
hydralazine
procainamide
isoniazid
pattern of joint involvement in reactive arthiritis
