Abstract:
:Only a few observations of inflammatory arthritis have been associated with Down's syndrome. We report a case of severe erosive, peripheral and axial psoriatic arthritis associated with cutaneous vasculitis in a 24-year old man with trisomy 21. A long standing remission of vasculitis and arthritis was achieved with corticoid and azathioprine treatment. The relationship between chromosomal abnormalities and synovial proliferation is further discussed.

杂志文章abstract::Primary Sjögren's syndrome (pSS) is often considered a B cell-mediated disease, yet the precise role of B cells in the pathogenesis is not fully understood. This is exemplified by the failure of multiple clinical trials directed at B cell depletion or inhibition. To date, most prognostic markers for severe disease out...
