Journal ArticleDOI

The contribution of genotypes at the MEFV and SAA1 loci to amyloidosis and disease severity in patients with familial Mediterranean fever.

TL;DR: Overall, disease severity and the development of amyloidosis in FMF are differentially affected by genetic variations within and outside the MEFV gene.
Journal ArticleDOI

Colchicine nonresponsiveness in familial mediterranean fever : Clinical, genetic, pharmacokinetic, and socioeconomic characterization

TL;DR: Colchicine treatment failure in FMF is associated with inadequate colchicines MNC concentration, probably resulting from a genetic defect unrelated to the underlying FMF.
Journal ArticleDOI

Rheumatic manifestations among cancer patients treated with immune checkpoint inhibitors.

TL;DR: It is shown that rheumatic iAE are part of the side effect profile of ICIs and require heightened awareness as these therapies are becoming the standard of care for various malignancies.
Journal ArticleDOI

Anakinra for Colchicine-Resistant Familial Mediterranean Fever: A Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled Trial.

TL;DR: Treatment with anakinra, an interleukin‐1–blocking agent, prevented FMF attacks in those with colchicine‐resistant FMF, using a randomized controlled trial.
