Rheumatology Flashcards
7 types of JIA
SUP POPE
Systemic arthritis
Undifferentiated arthritis
Polyarthritis (RF negative) 5+ joints in 6 months need RF tested two occasions at least 3m apart
Polyarthritis (RF positive)
Oligoarthritis (1-4 involved, often ANA positive, most common)
Psoriatic arthritis
Enthesis-related arthritis
ALL have eye exam (uveitis in 20-30%)
Felty syndrome (3)
RA, Neutropenia and splenomegaly
Enthesitis related arthritis
HLA B27 80% Male over 6y Anterior uveitis Ank spend IBD Dactylitis (also with sickle cell and psoriatic arthritis)
therapy for SLE

TNF agents
Granulomatosis with polyangitis triad
Small vessel
Upper and lower respiratory tract inflammation and renal disease
ANCA positive
HSP other name
IgA vasculitis
HSP recurrence rat
and end stage renal disease rate
Recurrence in 1/3rd
ESRF in 1-3%
Behcet criteria and mx
Recurrent mouth ulcers (exhibit pathergy) Recurrent genital ulcers Eye lesions Skin lesions Pathergy
Mx steroid, colchicine etc
Juvenile dermatomyositis criteria
Symmetric proximal muscle weakness
Skin changes - gottron papules knuckles and eyelid rash (50% have photosensitivity and can have malar rash)
Elevated CK, AST, LDH, Aldolase
Abnormal EMG and muscle biopsy
Positive anti jo and Ro indicate high risk early death
Limited systemic sclerosis 5 features
CREST previous name Calcinosis Raynaud Eosophageal dysmotiliy Sclerodactyly Telangiectasia
Raynauds Tx
Nifedipine
Nitroglycerin 2% ointment for digital ulcers
Tx for chorea
Carbamazepine
Phenobarbital
Haloperidol
Chlorpromazine
Macrophage activation syndrome
Cytokines storm with 10-30% mortality Pancytopenia Fever Splenomegaly High TG, High ferritin, high ddimer Decreased fibrinogen (DIC) Deranged LFTs
Haemophagocytosis of bone marrow
Persistent high CRP but decreasing ESR (consumption of fibrinogen - DIC)
Anti-glomerular basement membrane antibodies seen in
Goodpasture syndrome (IgG deposits BM with crescenteric changes))
B cell depletion agent
Rituximab
IL-1 inhibitors
Anakinra
Canakinumab (very impressive SJIA)
Rilonacept
How much normal population HLA B27 positive
10%
Criteria for SLE
Rash on maids
Renal Arthritis Serotitis Haematological Oral uk era Neurological Malar rash ANA (most sensitive) Immunological Discoid rash Sunlight sensitivity
Periodic fevers (PFAPA vs FMF)
PFAPA well in between and self resolves, 0% risk amyloidosis and FmF 40-75% risks amyloidosis
Livedo reticularis indicates..
Mottled purple skin can be from: Anti phospholipid Systemic lupus erythematosus Dermatomyositis Rheumatoid arthritis Polyarteritis nodosa Granulomatosis with polyangiitis Sjogren syndrome
C-ANCA in
Wegeners
Reacts against proteinase 3
(P-ANCA in microscopic polyangitis against myeloperoxidase)
