Serum ferritin in juvenile chronic polyarthritis.
Six children with juvenile chronic polyarthritis were studied and their disease activity correlated with haematological values including serum ferritin. The latter is often raised above reference values, but even when within them appears to fluctuate significantly and correlates more closely with disease activity than any of the other parameters measured. We conclude that the serial measurement...
متن کاملNaproxen in juvenile chronic polyarthritis.
Naproxen at 10 mg per kg body weight was compared with aspirin at 80 mg per kg body weight in children suffering from juvenile chronic polyarthritis. It was found to be as effective as aspirin, with certainly no more and possibly fewer gastrointestinal side effects. A long-term tolerance study up to 12 months confirmed that naproxed was a satisfactory nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug in the ...
متن کاملSignificance of rubella virus infection in juvenile chronic polyarthritis.
Fifty-three patients under the age of 5 years with definite juvenile chronic polyarthritis (JCP) were examined for serological evidence of rubella infection. The prevalence of rubella antibody was found to be low and did not differ significantly from that found in normal children of similar age. Patients with JCP and antibody to rubella virus had a clinical course indistinguishable from those w...

متن کاملEosinophil-specific and other granulocyte-specific antinuclear antibodies in juvenile chronic polyarthritis and adult rheumatoid arthritis.
Sera from 151 children of whom 112 had juvenile chronic polyarthritis (JCP), and from adults with rheumatoid arthritis (RA), and from healthy pregnant females were tested for the presence of granulocyte-specific antinuclear antibodies (GS-ANA). These were detected in 20% of sera from cases of JCP, in 68% of adult RA, but in none of the controls. Eosinophil-specific ANA were the only ANA present...
