Gout is the most prevalent inflammatory arthritis in the Asia-Pacific region and worldwide. This clinical practice guideline (CPG) aims to provide recommendations based on systematically obtained evidence and values and preferences tailored to the unique needs of patients with gout and hyperuricemia in Asia, Australasia, and the Middle East. The target users of these guidelines are general practitioners and specialists, including rheumatologists, in these regions.

Emerging role of TWEAK-Fn14 axis in lupus, a disease related to autoimmunity and fibrosis

Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is a chronic autoimmune disorder. Lupus nephritis (LN) is one of the severe clinical implications in SLE, and this was relates to fibrosis in the kidney. As an important marker in the tumor necrosis factor (TNF) superfamily, TNF-like weak inducer of apoptosis (TWEAK) has been given much attention with respect to its role in regulating pro-inflammatory immune response. Fibroblast growth factor-inducible 14 (Fn14), the sole receptor for TWEAK, has been found expressed in different immune and non-immune cells. TWEAK binds to Fn14, and then regulates inflammatory components production via downstream signaling pathways. To date, dysregulated expression of TWEAK, Fn14 has been reported in SLE, LN patients, and in vivo, in vitro studies have discussed the significant role of TWEAK-Fn14 axis in SLE, LN pathogenesis, partly through mediating the fibrosis process. In this review, we will discuss the association of TWEAK-Fn14 axis in lupus. Understanding the relationship will better realize the potential for making TWEAK-Fn14 as a marker for the diseases, and will help to give many clues for targeting them in treatment of lupus in the future.

A comparative study of IL-6, CRP and NT-proBNP levels in post-COVID multisystem inflammatory syndrome in children (MISC) and Kawasaki disease patients

Mimi Ganguly,Alolika Nandi,Paramita Banerjee,Purbasha Gupta,Subhajit Dey Sarkar,Surupa Basu,Priyankar Pal

doi : 10.1111/1756-185X.14236

Volume 25, Issue 1 p. 27-31

Post-COVID multisystem hyperinflammatory syndrome in children (MISC) has clinical and laboratory similarities with Kawasaki disease (KD). Inflammatory markers like C-reactive protein (CRP), interleukin 6 (IL6) as well as N-terminal probrain natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) are elevated in both. This study attempts a comparative analysis of the 3 markers in an attempt at early differentiation for planning appropriate management.

The association between elevated serum interleukin-22 and the clinical diagnosis of axial spondyloarthritis: A retrospective study

Michal Sagiv,Mohammad Adawi,Abid Awisat,Aniela Shouval,Regina Peri,Firas Sabbah,Itzhak Rosner,Aharon Kessel,Gleb Slobodin

doi : 10.1111/1756-185X.14246

Volume 25, Issue 1 p. 56-60

There is an unmet need for a reliable biomarker for the differentiation of axial spondyloarthritis (AxSpA) from its mimickers. Serum levels of interleukin-22 (IL-22) have previously been found to be significantly elevated in patients with AxSpA compared with healthy individuals or persons with osteoarthritis.

Salivary free light chains and salivary immunoglobulins as potential non-invasive biomarkers in primary Sjögren's syndrome

Pulukool Sandhya,Jayakanthan Kabeerdoss,Pamela Christudoss,Roy Arulraj,Santosh Kumar Mandal,Ramya Janardana,Pramod Prahlad Chebbi,Maya Pavalasseril Ganesan,Gowri Mahasampath,Debashish Danda

Volume 25, Issue 1 p. 61-69

B cells contribute significantly to the pathogenesis of primary Sjögren's syndrome (pSS). Free light chains (FLCs) are generated during the production of immunoglobulins (Igs) and are surrogates of B cell activity. We hypothesized that salivary FLCs and salivary Igs could represent salivary gland inflammation and therefore, serve as biomarkers in pSS.

Anti-ribosomal P protein antibodies in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus is associated with hyperferritinemia

Yoshiyuki Arinuma,Shunsei Hirohata,Takuya Isayama,Yasuhiro Hasegawa,Takumi Muramatsu,Junichi Kondo,Yoshiro Kanayama,Kazuma Ino,Yu Matsueda,Kenji Oku,Kunihiro Yamaoka

doi : 10.1111/1756-185X.14245

Volume 25, Issue 1 p. 70-75

Anti-ribosomal P protein antibodies (anti-ribo P) have been reported as one of the specific autoantibodies in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) and has been demonstrated to bind and activate macrophages in vitro. Clinically, hyperferritinemia has been known to be a biomarker for macrophage activation. The aim of this study is to clarify the relationship of anti-ribo P and clinical characteristics and biomarkers including serum ferritin in patients with SLE.
