The American College of Rheumatology (ACR) updated the 2011 recommendations for juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA) in 2013 and focused on the treatment of systemic-onset juvenile idiopathic arthritis (SOJIA).According to the clinical feature of the SOJIA,the subtype is developed to 3 phenotypes:(1) phenotype of systemic JIA with active systemic features and yarying degrees of synovitis; (2) phenotype of systemic JIA without active systemic features and with varying degrees of active synovitis ; (3) phenotype of systemic JIA with features concerning for macrophage activation syndrome (MAS).The treatment recommendation was made according each phenotype,including initial therapeutic options and therapeutic options for continued disease activity.And uncertain or inappropriate options for continued disease were listed alphabetically.Development of treatment recommendations for children with SOJIA and features of MAS is particularly challenging.However,it is anticipated that in the near future,with research of the disease process,the better recommendation may be made.

The American College of Rheumatology (ACR) published treatment recommendations for juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA) in 2011.The recommendations meant as a guide to health care providers caring for JIA children with dividing JIA into 5 distinct subtypes.The ACR updated the 2011 recommendations in 2013 and focused on the treatment of systemic-onset juvenile idiopathic arthritis (SOJIA).According to the clinical feature of the SOJIA,the subtybe is developed to 3 phenotypes.And the conception was firstly addressed that systemic JIA with features concerning for macrophage activation syndrome(MAS).Different treatment options was applied for clinical manifestations score,and these recommendations offered guidance for providers caring for children with the most common phenotypes associated with systemic JIA,rather than exceptional cases with unusual disease manifestations or refractory disease.

Objective To explore the influence of allergic rhinitis (AR) on patients with systemic onset juvenile idiopathic arthritis (SoJIA).Methods The study involved 44 cases with SoJIA from Department of Pediatrics,Renji Hospital affiliated to School of Medicine of Shanghai Jiaotong University from July 2008 to November 2013.The Clinical and laboratory data of all patients were recorded respectively.This was a retrospective cohort study.According to the diagnosis of allergic rhinitis (AR),children were subdivided into AR group (16 cases) and Non-AR group (28 cases).ACR Pediatric criteria (ACR Pedi) 30/ 50/70 and related indicators of SoJIA between the two groups were compared.In the AR group,the correlation between AR scores and DAS28 was analyzed.When SoJIA of the two groups relapsed,the AR group (the treatment group) received anti-rheumatism for arthritis as well as nasal spray and oral antihistamines for AR.The non-AR group (control group) only received the anti-rheumatism for arthritis.The improvement of SoJIA between the two groups was analyzed.The continuous variables were analyzed by Student's t-test or the MannWhitney U-test as appropriate.Categorical data were compared between different groups by the Chi-square test.Correlations were determined by Pearson or Spearman's ranking.Results ① In the retrospective analysis:the physician's and patients'/parents' general assessment on a 10 cm visual-analogue scale (VAS),number of joints with res-triction of movement,number of swollen joints,ESR,serum ferritin(SF) and childhood health assessment questionnaire (CHAQ) score were significantly elevated in the AR group compared with Non-AR group at the disease onset [(6.7±1.0) cm vs (4.8±1.9) cm; (6.5±1.4) cm vs (3.2±1.5) cm; 4.1±2.7 vs 2.7± 1.7; 3.4±2.4 vs 1.4±1.5; (87±35) mm/1 h vs (61±40) mm/1 h; (888±1 043) μg/L vs (311±324) μg/L; 1.6±0.5 vs 0.7±0.3,respectively; all P＜0.05].At the 3 and 6 months follow-up after disease onset,the proportion of patients who reached ACR pedi 50,70 in AR group were lower than the Non-AR group,while the cumulative glucocorticoid dose was higher in the AR group than that of those without AR [at 3 months 38％ vs 71％; 13％ vs 46％; (76±35) mg/kg vs (43±36) mg/kg,respectively; at 6 months 25％ vs 71％; 19％ vs 64％; 127±57 vs 67±58,respectively,all P＜0.05]; In the AR group,at the disease onset,3 and 6 months follow-up after disease onset,the scores of AR was positively correlated with DAS28(r=0.741,0.703,0.680,respectively; all P＜0.05).② In the prospective study:when SoJIA was relapsed,systemic feature score,the physician's and patients' /parents' general assessment on a l0 cm VAS,number of joints with restriction of movement,number of swollen joints,ESR,SF and CHAQ score were significantly elevated in the treatment group compared with the control group [3.8±1.5 vs 2.1±1.1; (5.6±1.5) cm vs (4.5±1.6) cm; (4.6±1.9) cm vs (3.1±1.5)cm; 3.9±1.9 vs 2.5±1.4; 2.4±0.9 vs 1.5±1.2; 92±27 vs 53±37; 565(339,1 192) μg/L vs 171(85,284) μg/L; 13(0.8,1.6) vs 0.7(0.5,1); respectively; P＜0.05].The improvement rate of the physician's and patients'/parents' general assessment on a 10 cm VAS,number of swollen joints,number of joints with restriction of movement,ESR and CHAQ score at the follow-up 3 months were higher in treatment group than the control group [71(55,86)％ vs 46(0,75)％; 67(45,81)％ vs 28(-4,62)％; 92(77,96)％ vs 70(27,88)％; 65(48,81)％ vs 0(-17,67)％; 100(46,100)％ vs 42(0,100)％; 67(49,85)％ vs 37(0,75)％; P＜0.05].At the follow-up 6 months,the improvement rate of ESR,patients'/ parents' general assessment on a 10 cm VAS,number of joints with restriction of movement and CHAQ score were higher than control group [94(85,96)％ vs 73(33,85)％; 89(65,99)％ vs 63(5,85)％; 100(100,100)％ vs 100(0,100)％; 91(69,100)％ vs 72(11,91)％; respectively,P＜0.05].Conclusion AR may exert an adverse influence on SoJIA.SoJIA patients who are treated with combined with AR may have better outcome than those who are only treated for arthritis.

Objective To investigate the common allergens and the relationship between the common allergens and the age of children with bronchial asthma in Jiading area of Shanghai. Methods Skin prick test (SPT) of 15 common allergens with standard prick liquid were performed in 351 asthmatic children, the children were divided into ≤3 years group, 3 ～6 years group and ＞6 years group, and we observed the positive rates and allergens in different age groups. Results (1) The positive rate of SPT for inhalant allergens in children with bronchial asthma is 71. 2%, specifically are: dust mite (49. 6%), house dust mite (49. 0%), fungi Ⅰ (36. 8%), mold Ⅱ (34. 8%), tree Ⅰ (32. 5%), dog epithelium (31.9%), cat epithelium (31.3%), pollen (29. 1%), tree Ⅱ (28. 8%), and feather (27.4%). (2)The positive rate of SPT for food allergens in children with bronchial asthma is 39. 6%, specifically are: shrimp(24.2%), eggs(15.7%), milk(14.8%), peanuts (13. 7%), and curries(12.5%). (3) The positive rate of inhalant allergens was significantly higher than food allergens. The positive rate of inhalant allergens had no significant differences among different ages, while the positive rate of food allergens was increased with age. Conclusions Most children with bronchial asthma and allergens are related, and allergens are related to age.
