چکیده
We report a four-year-old Japanese girl with hyper IgD and periodic fever syndrome. There is a first report of hyper IgD syndrome (HIDS) of which the genomic study was done in Japan. In this report a girl complained of periodic fever and abdominal symptoms accompanied with high levels of mevalonic acid in urine and serum. She has been well controlled by non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) for 3 years.

Introduction Hyper-IgD with periodic fever syndrome (HIDS) is an autoinflammatory disease characterized by periodic episodes of fever, abdominal distress, joint pain, and skin rashes. IL-1 blockade was previously reported as effective in reducing the frequency of episodes and improving clinical symptoms.[,] We report the results of the study assessing the efficacy and safety of canakinumab, an ...

Hereditary periodic fever syndromes are characterized by incapacitating attacks of fever and generalized inflammation. While the mutated genes for the major syndromes in this group are known, the pathogenesis remains unclear. The aim of this study was to investigate apoptosis in patients with periodic fever as a possible pathogenic factor. We measured anisomycin-induced apoptosis with annexin-V...

The hyperimmunoglobulinaemia D and per iodic fever (hyper-IgD) syndrome is typified by recur rent unpredictable febrile attacks with abdominal pain, joint involvement (arthralgias/arthritis), head ache, skin lesions and a polyclonal elevation of serum IgD (> 100 U m L” 1). Interferon-gamma (IFN-7 ) is a major proinflammatory cytokine which could play a role in the pathogenesis of the attacks...

Hyperimmunoglobulinemia D and periodic fever syndrome (HIDS; MIM# 260920) is a rare recessively-inherited autoinflammatory condition caused by mutations in the MVK gene, which encodes for mevalonate kinase, an essential enzyme in the isoprenoid pathway. HIDS is clinically characterized by recurrent episodes of fever and inflammation. Here we report on the case of a 2 year-old Portuguese boy wit...
