Palmar erythema and palmar papules as predictors for dermatomyositis-related acute/subacute interstitial lung disease: a retrospective study.

TL;DR: Wang et al. as discussed by the authors investigated the association between clinical features of Dermatomyositis (DM) and interstitial lung disease (ILD) in 207 patients with DM and analyzed the high-risk factors for ILD.
Journal ArticleDOI

Peripheral lymphocyte count defines the clinical phenotypes and prognosis in patients with anti‐MDA5‐positive dermatomyositis

TL;DR: In this article , the role of peripheral lymphocyte count in phenotyping and prognosis prediction in dermatomyositis (DM) patients with anti-MDA5 antibodies was explored.
Journal ArticleDOI

Pathological Roles of Pulmonary Cells in Acute Lung Injury: Lessons from Clinical Practice

TL;DR: In this paper , a review of lung high-resolution computed tomography and lung histopathology is presented, focusing on majorly damaged cells in each disease and treatments that should be immediately initiated in clinical practice for each disease.

Myositis-Associated Interstitial Lung Disease

TL;DR: Patients with rapidly progressive ILD are at increased risk for death and should be treated aggressively and additional poor prognostic markers include the presence of antisynthetase antibodies other than Jo-1, MDA5 antibody, elevated CRP and ESR, advanced age, and elevated ferritin.

Would a new name hasten the acceptance of amyopathic dermatomyositis (dermatomyositis siné myositis) as a distinctive subset within the idiopathic inflammatory dermatomyopathies spectrum of clinical illness

TL;DR: The Master said, "If names are not correct, language is not in accordance with the truth of things, affairs cannot be carried out to success, therefore a superior man considers it necessary that the names he uses be spoken appropriately, what the superior man requires, is just that in his words there may be nothing incorrect as mentioned in this paper.

Clinical manifestation and prognostic factor in anti-melanoma differentiation-associated gene 5 antibody-associated interstitial lung disease as a complication of dermatomyositis

TL;DR: Both serum ferritin and anti-MDA5 antibody are powerful indicators for the early diagnosis of A/SIP with DM and Ferritin also predicts disease severity and prognosis for patients with anti-mda5 antibody.

Anti-MDA5 and anti-TIF1-γ antibodies have clinical significance for patients with dermatomyositis

TL;DR: Anti-MDA5 and anti-TIF1-gamma antibodies were detected based on their ability to immunoprecipitate biotinylated recombinant MDA5, and were closely associated with life-threatening complications in DM.
