Typical age of AOSD
What is Young adult (<35 yo) acceptable w/o #
Timing of Quotidian Fever in terms of time of day + frequency
What is late afternoon/ early evening (anything PM accepted) and daily
Gold standard classification scheme
What is Yamaguchi criteria- bc most sensitive
Typical serologies/antibodies
What is None- seronegative
First line tx of mild
What is NSAIDS
Prognosis of AOSD survival rate in 5 yrs
What is good-90-95% acceptable w/o #
Triad of Still's
Most specific criteria for AOSD
Typical ferritin level
What is 1000+
First line DMARD in Still's
What is MTX
Life-threatening Complication of Still's that you should watch for
What is MAS/ sHLH
Typical fever temperature
What are 39 degrees C or 102 degrees F- very high
at least 3 of the 4 major criteria of Yamaguchi
fever 39 degrees 7+ days
arthritis/arthralgias 2+ weeks
rash
WBC >10, 80% PMNS (will accept if just say w/o details)
Ferritin level you should be concerned about for MAS
What is 10,000 (can start as early as 4000)
First line biologics (3)
What are TNF alpha IL1 IL6
Biologics: anti TNF, IL1 (anakinra canakinumab rilonacept), IL6 (tocilizumab)- induces remission in 70-80% of AOSD
Joint- TNF inhibitor (infliximab), MTX
Resistant- RTX, abatacept, IVIG, stem cell transplant
3 Patterns of Still's disease course
What are Monocyclic- self limiting
Intermittent Polycyclic
Chronic
Rash typical color, timing, and triggers (at least one)
What are salmon-colored, evanescent/ transient, heat/ mechanical irritation/ trauma (Koebner)
-other features:
Macular/ maculopapular, nonpruritic
14% Atypical urticaria
Purpura w/ low plt suggests MAS
Scoring needed to be Still's by Yamaguchi
What are 5 with at least 2 major
Typical CBC in MAS
What are cytopenias (at least 2 of 3 cell lines)
d/t interferon gamma elevation and/or phagocytosis of hematopoietic cells by macrophages in bone marrow and reticuloendothelial system
Dysregulated CD8+ T lymphocytes and excessive production of cytokines-> abnormal macrophage activation-> consumptive coagulopathy (DIC with elevated PT/PTT, low fibrinogen, inappropriately low ESR)-> multiorgan dysfxn
Consider this in refractory Stills or if genetic mutation for sHLH
What is etoposide/ stem cell/ bone marrow transplant either one
Arthritis complication that can happen and is very characteristic per Dr Cush
What is ankylosis of carpal bone
Reason for sore throat
What is perichondritis of cricothyroid cartilage
Distinctions between Yamaguchi and Fautrel Criteria (at least 2)
What are: Fautrel needs 4 major or 3 major + 2 minor; Yamaguchi 5 with at least 2 major
What are: Fautrel accounts for exceptions that Yamaguchi doesn't
-major glycosylated ferritin <20, pharyngitis (instead of being minor)
-minor maculopapular rash; leukocytosis (instead of being major)
Receptor elevated in MAS that you could consider
What is sIL2 R
First line treatment in MAS
What is high dose steroids (1 mg/kg/d)
