   Sammanfattning : Juvenile idiopathic arthritis, JIA, is used as an umbrella term covering a heterogeneous group of chronic arthritis forms in children, many of which have important differences compared to adult arthritis, while others possibly represent similar diseases among children and adults. Classification aims to give a better understanding of the pathogenesis, patterns, disease trajectories and treatment responses. LÄS MER

4. 3. Juvenile chronic arthritis. A study on epidemiology and outcome in Costa Rican children

   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Arthritis; juvenile; rheumatoid; juvenile chronic arthritis; epidemiology; outcome; disability evaluation; antinuclear antibodies; uveitis;

   Sammanfattning : Problems associated with interpreting and comparing epidemiological studies dealing with chronic arthropathies in children include the diversity of classification criteria and selection bias. This study is a step towards elucidating the impact of genetic and environmental factors on disease frequencies and manifestations of Juvenile Chronic Arthritis (JCA) in Costa Rica. LÄS MER

5. 4. JIA (juvenile idiopathic arthritis) in the Nordic countries. Aspects of classification, epidemiology and pain assessment

   Författare :Lillemor Berntson; Göteborgs universitet; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Arthritis; juvenile; rheumatoid; juvenile chronic arthritis; classification; heredity epidemiology; incidence; pain assessment; rating scales; VAS; ordinal data;

   Sammanfattning : Different classification criteria for chronic arthritis in childhood have been used in different parts of the world, which has made comparison between studies difficult. In 1995, a new set of classification criteria was proposed by the ILAR (International League of Associations for Rheumatism) to overcome such difficulties and to create more homogenous subgroups.

7. 5. Muscle function in Juvenile Idiopathic Arthritis : A two-year follow-up

   Nyckelord :LANTBRUKSVETENSKAPER; AGRICULTURAL SCIENCES; arthritis; juvenile rheumatoid; physiopathology; muscle; skeletal; pathology; physiopathology; Muscular atrophy; etiology; physiopathology; arthritis; juvenile rheumatoid; complications; Medicine; Medicin;

   Sammanfattning : This is a study of muscle function in Juvenile Idiopathic Arthritis (JIA). Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a disease that primarily affects the synovial membrane of joints. Muscle weakness, atrophy and pain occur in adult RA. This may be a consequence of joint pain, stiffness and immobility. LÄS MER
