Effectiveness and Safety of Tofacitinib vs. Calcineurin Inhibitor in Interstitial Lung Disease Secondary to Anti-Melanoma Differentiation-Associated Gene 5-Positive Dermatomyositis: A Multi-Center Cohort Study with Propensity Score-Based Inverse Probability of Treatment Weighting
Background/Purpose: The current management of anti-melanoma differentiation-associated gene 5-positive dermatomyositis (MDA5+DM) is challenging and largely empirical rather than evidence-based. Small-sized proof-of-concept trial and case series…Abstract Number: 2655 • ACR Convergence 2024
Diagnostic Challenges of Dermatomyositis: A Retrospective Study of Its Dermatologic Mimics and Misdiagnoses
Background/Purpose: Dermatomyositis (DM) is often misdiagnosed due to its diverse clinical presentation. This study aimed to identify common dermatologic mimics of DM, characterize misdiagnosis rates…Abstract Number: 0882 • ACR Convergence 2024
Brepocitinib, a Selective TYK2/JAK1 Inhibitor Under Evaluation for the Treatment of Dermatomyositis, Reduces Inflammatory Cytokine Signaling and Interferon-induced Apoptosis in Primary Human Epidermal Keratinocytes
Background/Purpose: Dermatomyositis (DM) is characterized by inflammatory and degenerative changes of skin and muscle and upregulation of Type I IFN-regulated gene and protein levels in…Abstract Number: 1166 • ACR Convergence 2024
Characteristics, Treatments, and Outcomes of Patients with Dermatomyositis from Two Large, Nationwide US Cohorts
Background/Purpose: Studies of dermatomyositis (DM) are frequently limited to single center cohorts at academic centers. We aimed to use two large nationally representative US cohorts…Abstract Number: 1769 • ACR Convergence 2024
Top Peripheral Blood Transcriptomic Gene Modules Reveal Functional Annotation and Correlation with Clinical Traits in Juvenile Dermatomyositis (JDM) and Myositis-Specific Autoantibody (MSA) Groups
Background/Purpose: Myositis-specific autoantibody (MSA) subgroups define phenotypes associated with specific clinical traits and outcomes within JDM, a clinically heterogeneous autoimmune disease. The pathogenesis of JDM…Abstract Number: PP08 • ACR Convergence 2024
Whispers of Resilience: Navigating Life with Rheumatism
Background/Purpose: “What’s wrong with me mom? Why am I always slow and hurting? Why can’t I play without being in pain like the other kids?”…Abstract Number: 0919 • ACR Convergence 2024
The Effects of CB2R Activation on Inflammatory Pathways in Dermatomyositis
Background/Purpose: Previous in vitro investigations done by our group into the utility of CB2R activation to treat dermatomyositis (DM) used stimulants that activated pathways not…Abstract Number: 1169 • ACR Convergence 2024
Efficacy of Intravenous Immunoglobulin (Octagam 10%) on Pulmonary Manifestations in Patients with Dermatomyositis: Results from the ProDERM Study
Background/Purpose: Interstitial lung disease (ILD) and other pulmonary manifestations are a major cause of mortality and morbidity in patients with dermatomyositis (DM). The ProDERM study…Abstract Number: 1777 • ACR Convergence 2024
Broad Proteomic Analysis Reveals Top Differential Protein Modules and Functional Annotations with Clinical Traits in Juvenile Dermatomyositis (JDM) and Myositis-Specific Autoantibody (MSA) Groups
Background/Purpose: JDM is a heterogenous systemic autoimmune disease with muscle and skin pathology, which can be clinically subgrouped by MSAs (ex: anti-TIF1, anti-MDA5 autoantibodies (Ab)).…
