Application of the international league against rheumatism classification criteria for systemic juvenile idiopathic arthritis as a prognostic factor in patients with adults-onset Still's disease

Adult-onset Still's disease (AOSD) is an adult form of systemic juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA) that differs from the latter in its classification. This study evaluated the concordance between the International League Against Rheumatism (ILAR) criteria for systemic JIA and the Yamaguchi cri...

Description
Summary:Adult-onset Still's disease (AOSD) is an adult form of systemic juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA) that differs from the latter in its classification. This study evaluated the concordance between the International League Against Rheumatism (ILAR) criteria for systemic JIA and the Yamaguchi criteria and then compared their possible prognostic value in patients with AOSD. In a retrospective review of 169 adults with suspected AOSD, patients were classified according to the Yamaguchi or ILAR criteria. Then the concordance in cross-referencing the other group with the different criteria was investigated and the sensitivity and specificity of each set of criteria were determined. Disease activity markers in AOSD patients were correlated with positivity according to both systems. Concordance was good in patients with suspected AOSD (k = 0.7144, p
