متن کاملClinical Genetic Testing of Periodic Fever Syndromes
Periodic fever syndromes (PFSs) are a wide group of autoinflammatory diseases. Due to some clinical overlap between different PFSs, differential diagnosis can be a difficult challenge. Nowadays, there are no universally agreed recommendations for most PFSs, and near half of patients may remain without a genetic diagnosis even after performing multiple-gene analyses. Molecular analysis of period...
متن کاملPathogenesis of familial periodic fever syndromes or hereditary autoinflammatory syndromes.
Familial periodic fever syndromes, otherwise known as hereditary autoinflammatory syndromes, are inherited disorders characterized by recurrent episodes of fever and inflammation. The general hypothesis is that the innate immune response in these patients is wrongly tuned, being either too sensitive to very minor stimuli or turned off too late. The genetic background of the major familial perio...
