چکیده

Introduction PFAPA syndrome is the most common cause of periodic fevers in children. In the clinical setting of children with periodic fever, there are a minority of patients in which to differentiate between PFAPA and monogenic periodic fevers is not immediate. The Gaslini score would provide a useful tool in this setting, calculating the probability to carry a mutation for monogenic periodic fevers

PFAPA and 12 Common MEFV Gene Mutations Our Clinical Experience

OBJECTIVE Marshall Syndrome or PFAPA is an inflammatory periodic disease characterized by periodic fever, aphthous stomatitis, pharyngitis and cervical adenitis. Although PFAPA is an auto inflammatory disease, it doesn't have genetic basis such as other periodic fevers. This study evaluates the 12 common MEFV gene mutations in patients with PFAPA syndrome. METHODS 21 patients with PFAPA syndr...

PW03-004 - PFAPA patient’s serum sensitizes monocytes to LPS

Methods Serum of three controls (CTRL) or PFAPA patients collected during (PFAPA-IN) and between (PFAPA-OUT) flares were incubated with monocytes isolated from healthy volunteers (n=3) and stimulated with ultra pure lipopolysaccharide (LPSup). IL-1b, TNF-a and IL-6 levels were measured by ELISA comparing serum stimulation alone and the impact of serum pre-incubation on LPSup induced cytokines.

PW03-003 – Altered neutrophil function in PFAPA

Introduction The PFAPA syndrome is a non-mendelian autoinflammatory disease of unknown aetiology characterized by Periodic Fever, Aphthous stomatitis, Pharyngitis, and cervical Adenitis. In typical cases, attacks begin before the age of five and occur every 2-8 weeks, often with striking periodicity. We have previously profiled the blood cells and serum cytokine levels in a cohort study of pati...
