At baseline, all patients were refractory to standard immunosuppressive treatment and/or were corticosteroid-dependent. Data recorded every 3 months included uveitis course, number/type of ocular complications, drug-related adverse events (AE), treatment change or withdrawal, and laboratory measures. Data of patients treated for at least 1 year were retrieved from the NIR and analyzed using descriptive statistics. Treatment efficacy was based on change in uveitis course and in number of ocular complications.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;RESULTS: &lt;/b&gt;Up to December 2009, data for 108 patients with JIA-AU treated with anti-tumor necrosis factor-α agents were recorded in the NIR and data from 91, with at least 12 months' followup, were included in the study. Forty-eight patients were treated with IFX, 43 with ADA. Forty-seven patients (55.3%) achieved remission of AU, 28 (32.9%) had recurrent AU, and 10 (11.8%) maintained a chronic course. A higher remission rate was observed with ADA (67.4% vs 42.8% with IFX; p = 0.025). Ocular complications decreased from 0.47 to 0.32 per subject. Five patients experienced resolution of structural complications. No patient reported serious AE; 8 (8.8%) experienced 11 minor AE (9 with IFX, 2 with ADA).&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;CONCLUSION: &lt;/b&gt;IFX and ADA appear to be effective and safe for treatment of refractory JIA-related uveitis, with a better performance of ADA in the medium-term period.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1</style></issue><custom1><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/23118110?dopt=Abstract</style></custom1></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>17</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Ruperto, Nicolino</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Ozen, Seza</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Pistorio, Angela</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Dolezalova, Pavla</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Brogan, Paul</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Cabral, David A</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Cuttica, Ruben</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Khubchandani, Raju</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Lovell, Daniel J</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">O'Neil, Kathleen M</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quartier, Pierre</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Ravelli, Angelo</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Iusan, Silvia M</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Filocamo, Giovanni</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Magalhães, Claudia Saad</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Unsal, Erbil</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Oliveira, Sheila</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Bracaglia, Claudia</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Bagga, Arvind</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Stanevicha, Valda</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Manzoni, Silvia Magni</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Pratsidou, Polyxeni</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Lepore, Loredana</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Espada, Graciela</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Kone-Paut, Isabella</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Paut, Isabelle Kone</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Zulian, Francesco</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Barone, Patrizia</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Bircan, Zelal</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Maldonado, Maria del Rocio</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Russo, Ricardo</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Vilca, Iris</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Tullus, Kjell</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Cimaz, Rolando</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Horneff, Gerd</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Anton, Jordi</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Garay, Stella</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Nielsen, Susan</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Barbano, Giancarlo</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Martini, Alberto</style></author></authors><translated-authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Paediatric Rheumatology International Trials Organisation (PRINTO)</style></author></translated-authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">EULAR/PRINTO/PRES criteria for Henoch-Schönlein purpura, childhood polyarteritis nodosa, childhood Wegener granulomatosis and childhood Takayasu arteritis: Ankara 2008.

Step 1: retrospective/prospective web-data collection for HSP, c-PAN, c-WG and c-TA, with age at diagnosis &lt;or=18 years. Step 2: blinded classification by consensus panel of a subgroup of 280 cases (128 difficult cases, 152 randomly selected) enabling expert diagnostic verification. Step 3: Ankara 2008 Consensus Conference and statistical evaluation (sensitivity, specificity, area under the curve, kappa-agreement) using as 'gold standard' the final consensus classification or original treating physician diagnosis.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;RESULTS: &lt;/b&gt;A total of 1183/1398 (85%) samples collected were available for analysis: 827 HSP, 150 c-PAN, 60 c-WG, 87 c-TA and 59 c-other. Prevalence, signs/symptoms, laboratory, biopsy and imaging reports were consistent with the clinical picture of the four c-vasculitides. A representative subgroup of 280 patients was blinded to the treating physician diagnosis and classified by a consensus panel, with a kappa-agreement of 0.96 for HSP (95% CI 0.84 to 1), 0.88 for c-WG (95% CI 0.76 to 0.99), 0.84 for c-TA (95% CI 0.73 to 0.96) and 0.73 for c-PAN (95% CI 0.62 to 0.84), with an overall kappa of 0.79 (95% CI 0.73 to 0.84).&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;CONCLUSION: &lt;/b&gt;EULAR/PRINTO/PRES propose validated classification criteria for HSP, c-PAN, c-WG and c-TA, with substantial/almost perfect agreement with the final consensus classification or original treating physician diagnosis.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">5</style></issue><custom1><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/20388738?dopt=Abstract</style></custom1></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>17</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Lepore, Loredana</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Paloni, Giulia</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Caorsi, Roberta</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Alessio, Maria</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Rigante, Donato</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Ruperto, Nicola</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Cattalini, Marco</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Tommasini, Alberto</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Zulian, Francesco</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Ventura, Alessando</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Martini, Alberto</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Gattorno, Marco</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Follow-up and quality of life of patients with cryopyrin-associated periodic syndromes treated with Anakinra.</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">J Pediatr</style></secondary-title><alt-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">J.

Both treated and untreated patients were routinely followed according to standard of care. The Child Health Questionnaire (CHQ-PF 50) was used to assess the health-related quality of life.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;RESULTS: &lt;/b&gt;The mean duration of follow-up was 37.5 months. In all treated patients, a complete and persistent control of the inflammatory manifestations was observed with no further progression of the disease. At enrollment in the registry, patients showed a poorer health-related quality of life than healthy children in both physical and the psychosocial summary scores. Treatment was associated with a dramatic and sustained amelioration of a variety of measures of poor quality of life, particularly in those concerning the global health perception, bodily pain-discomfort, and other physical domains.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;CONCLUSIONS: &lt;/b&gt;Long-term IL-1 blockade produces a significant and persistent improvement in the clinical manifestations associated with the disease and on the overall quality of life.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2</style></issue><custom1><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/20472245?dopt=Abstract</style></custom1></record></records></xml>
