Abstract
OBJECTIVES Nucleotide-binding oligomerization domain-like receptor family, pyrin domain containing 3-associated autoinflammatory disease (NLRP3-AID) is a rare autosomal dominant systemic autoinflammatory disease. We aimed to summarize the phenotypic and genotypic features of Chinese adult NLRP3-AID patients with hearing loss. METHODS A retrospective cohort study of twenty-one adult patients with NLRP3-AID was conducted in Peking Union Medical College Hospital between July 2015 and March 2023. All patients underwent whole exome sequencing and otorhinolaryngologic assessments. Clinical features and therapeutic data were collected and analysed. RESULTS We found that 13/21 (61.90%) of patients had hearing loss with high-frequency impairment in the majority, and most patients presented with vestibular dysfunction as a new finding. The NLRP3-AID patients with early-onset, cold or stress triggered episodes, red eyes, fatigue, hypopsia and mutations located in the NACHT domain of the NLRP3 protein were more likely to suffer from hearing loss, especially sensorineural hearing loss, perhaps as a result of pathogenic variants of high penetrance. By a series of audiological evaluations, TNF-α inhibitors were confirmed to improve or reverse hearing loss. CONCLUSIONS We reported the first cohort of Chinese adult NLRP3-AID patients with hearing loss and characterized vestibular dysfunction, highlighted the necessity for attention to high-frequency hearing and provided potential alternative treatment.

Abstract
Monogenic autoinflammatory syndromes (MAISs), are caused by pathogenic genetic variants in the innate immune system, leading to dysregulation and aberrant inflammasome activation spontaneously or with minimal triggering. The diagnosis and treatment of MAISs can be intricate, relying on an increased recognition of potential differential diagnoses. This review examines the clinical features of MAIS, with a special focus on uveitis. It also evaluates treatment options and assesses the effects of activating molecular and cytokine pathways.

Abstract
Urticaria is a common disease that can affect individuals of all age groups, with approximately one-quarter of the population experiencing it at least once in their lifetime. Lesions characterized by erythema and itchy hives can appear anywhere on the body. These can vary in size ranging from millimeters to centimeters, and typically clear within 24 h. About 40% of patients with urticaria have accompanying angioedema, which involves localized deep tissue swelling. Urticaria usually occurs spontaneously and is classified into acute and chronic forms, with the latter referring to a condition that lasts for more than 6 weeks. The prevalence of chronic urticaria in the general population ranges from 0.5% to 5%, and it can either be inducible or spontaneous. The most common form of pediatric urticaria is acute and is usually self-limiting. However, a broad differential diagnosis should be considered in children with urticaria, particularly if they also have accompanying systemic complaints. Differential diagnoses of pediatric urticaria include chronic spontaneous urticaria, chronic inducible urticaria, serum sickness-like reaction, urticarial vasculitis, and mast cell disorders. Conditions that can mimic urticaria, including but not limited to cryopyrinopathies, hyper IgD syndrome, Periodic Fever, Aphthous Stomatitis, Pharyngitis and Adenitis (PFAPA), Tumor Necrosis Factor Receptor Associated Periodic Syndrome (TRAPs), and Schnitzler syndrome should also be considered. The many faces of pediatric urticaria can be both easy and confusing. A pragmatic approach relies on clinical foresight and understanding the various forms of urticaria and their potential mimickers. This approach can pave the way for an accurate and optimized diagnostic approach in children with urticaria.

Abstract
Cryopyrin-associated periodic syndrome (CAPS) is a rare inherited autoinflammatory disease caused by gain-of-function mutations in the NLRP3 gene, with a genotype-phenotype correlation. The clinical presentation of each mutation has been previously studied. However, very few studies have reported on the clinical characteristics and treatment effectiveness across different generations within a family with the same mutation. A detailed investigation of family members of patients with CAPS may help in the appropriate diagnosis and treatment of undiagnosed CAPS. Herein, we report a 2-year-old boy (proband), his father, and his grandmother who presented with several symptoms of CAPS, such as persistently positive inflammatory reactions and hearing impairment. All three patients had the same pathogenic mutation in the NLRP3 gene (c.1049C > T (p.Thr350Met) heterozygous mutation) and were diagnosed with CAPS. With canakinumab treatment, the laboratory data of all three patients improved, the proband and father's skin rash disappeared, and his grandmother's arthropathy improved. The proband's hearing also showed slight improvement but not in his father or grandmother. Among the various non-specific symptoms associated with CAPS, chronic ocular hyperaemia is a finding that can be easily identified by non-ophthalmologists. Diagnosis of CAPS should be considered when eye symptoms are present in a combination of hyperinflammatory response, arthropathy, or skin symptoms. Thorough family history records, physical examinations, and close collaboration between paediatricians and adult rheumatologists are important for prompt diagnosis and appropriate treatment of inherited autoinflammatory diseases.

Abstract
An estimated 20-25% of the population is affected by chronic, non-communicable inflammatory skin diseases. Chronic skin inflammation has many causes. Among the most frequent chronic inflammatory skin diseases are atopic dermatitis, psoriasis, urticaria, lichen planus, and hidradenitis suppurativa, driven by a complex interplay of genetics and environmental factors. Autoimmunity is another important cause of chronic skin inflammation. The autoimmune response may be mainly T cell driven, such as in alopecia areata or vitiligo, or B cell driven in chronic spontaneous urticaria, pemphigus and pemphigoid diseases. Rare causes of chronic skin inflammation are autoinflammatory diseases, or rheumatic diseases, such as cutaneous lupus erythematosus or dermatomyositis. Whilst we have seen a significant improvement in diagnosis and treatment, several challenges remain. Especially for rarer causes of chronic skin inflammation, early diagnosis is often missed because of low awareness and lack of diagnostics. Systemic immunosuppression is the treatment of choice for almost all of these diseases. Adverse events due to immunosuppression, insufficient therapeutic responses and relapses remain a challenge. For atopic dermatitis and psoriasis, a broad spectrum of innovative treatments has been developed. However, treatment responses cannot be predicted so far. Hence, development of (bio)markers allowing selection of specific medications for individual patients is needed. Given the encouraging developments during the past years, we envision that many of these challenges in the diagnosis and treatment of chronic inflammatory skin diseases will be thoroughly addressed in the future.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The interleukin-1 (IL-1) mediated systemic autoinflammatory diseases, including the cryopyrin- associated periodic syndromes (CAPS), tumour necrosis factor receptor-associated periodic syndrome (TRAPS), mevalonate kinase deficiency (MKD) and deficiency of the IL-1 receptor antagonist (DIRA), belong to a group of rare immunodysregulatory diseases that primarily present in early childhood with variable multiorgan involvement. When untreated, patients with severe clinical phenotypes have a poor prognosis, and diagnosis and management of these patients can be challenging. However, approved treatments targeting the proinflammatory cytokine IL-1 have been life changing and have significantly improved patient outcomes. OBJECTIVE To establish evidence-based recommendations for diagnosis, treatment and monitoring of patients with IL-1 mediated autoinflammatory diseases to standardise their management. METHODS A multinational, multidisciplinary task force consisting of physician experts, including rheumatologists, patients or caregivers and allied healthcare professionals, was established. Evidence synthesis, including systematic literature review and expert consensus (Delphi) via surveys, was conducted. Consensus methodology was used to formulate and vote on statements to guide optimal patient care. RESULTS The task force devised five overarching principles, 14 statements related to diagnosis, 10 on therapy, and nine focused on long-term monitoring that were evidence and/or consensus-based for patients with IL-1 mediated diseases. An outline was developed for disease-specific monitoring of inflammation-induced organ damage progression and reported treatments of CAPS, TRAPS, MKD and DIRA. CONCLUSION The 2021 EULAR/American College of Rheumatology points to consider represent state-of-the-art knowledge based on published data and expert opinion to guide diagnostic evaluation, treatment and monitoring of patients with CAPS, TRAPS, MKD and DIRA, and to standardise and improve care, quality of life and disease outcomes.

Abstract
AIM This study aims to evaluate the utility of genetic testing of patients diagnosed with periodic fever syndromes and to assess the validity of existing scoring criteria. METHODS This study retrospectively reviewed the clinical history of patients diagnosed with periodic fever syndromes at Queensland Children's Hospital between November 2014 and June 2018. RESULTS Forty-three patients were diagnosed with periodic fever syndromes. Diagnoses in the cohort included periodic fever, adenitis, pharyngitis and aphthous stomatitis (10), tumour necrosis factor receptor-associated periodic syndrome (9), cryopyrin-associated periodic syndrome (6), mevalonate kinase deficiency (4) while 14 remained unspecified. No presenting symptoms were uniquely associated with any particular diagnosis. Genetic testing of between 1 and 26 genes was performed in 26 (60%) patients. Two (7.7%) patients had pathogenic variants identified. Variants of uncertain significance which were insufficient to confirm a monogenic disorder were identified in a further 7 (27%) patients. The Eurofever classification criteria correlated with clinical diagnosis for patients diagnosed with cryopyrin-associated periodic syndrome (P = 0.046) and tumour necrosis factor receptor-associated periodic syndrome (P = 0.025) but not for patients diagnosed with mevalonate kinase deficiency (P = 0.47); however, the Eurofever classification criteria were often positive for more than one diagnosis in these patients. CONCLUSION The European classification criteria can form a potentially useful tool to guide diagnosis; however, clinical judgement remains essential, because the score is often positive for multiple diagnoses. The diagnostic yield of genetic testing in this cohort was low and genetic testing may be more useful to confirm a strong clinical suspicion than to clarify a diagnosis for patients with less clear symptoms.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Monogenic Autoinflammatory diseases (AIDs) are a broad spectrum of rare hereditary diseases whose ocular involvement has not been well characterized yet. This systematic review aims to provide an overview of the current knowledge about ocular findings in AIDs. METHODS A systematic literature review was conducted using 2 electronic databases, according to the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guidelines. A combination of AIDs and ophthalmology-related search terms were used. All articles were screened by 2 independent reviewers for title, abstract and full text level. We included solely studies that investigated ocular findings in AIDs. RESULTS 198 papers of 4268 records were retained. Data about 1353 patients with a diagnosis of autoinflammatory disease and ocular involvement were collected (680 CAPS, 211 FMF, 138 TRAPS, 238 Blau, 32 MKD, 21 SIFD, 7 Aicardi Goutières, 3 CANDLE, 8 DADA2, 9 HA20, 6 APLAID). Conjunctivitis was significantly more frequent in CAPS (p < 0.00001), uveitis in Blau, MKD, HA20 and CANDLE (p < 0.00001), papillitis/papilledema in CAPS (p < 0.00001), optic neuritis in Aicardi and DADA2 (p < 0.008), retinal vasculitis in FMF (p < 0.00001), progressive reduction in choroidal thickness in FMF and DADA2 (p < 0.00001), periorbital oedema in TRAPS (p < 0.00001) and retinitis in SIFD (p < 0.00001). Among AIDs with uveitis, granulomatous inflammation was more common in Blau syndrome (p < 0.00001). CONCLUSION This systematic literature review characterized the ocular involvement of several AIDs, and the present data may encourage to consider a timely ophthalmological screening program for these rare diseases.

Abstract
This is Part 2 of an updated follow-up review of the World Allergy Organization (WAO) position paper on the diagnosis and treatment of urticaria and angioedema. Since that document was published, new advances in the understanding of the pathogenesis of chronic urticaria, and greater experience with the use of biologics in patients with severe refractory disease, mainly omalizumab, have been gained. For these reasons, WAO decided to initiate an update targeted to general practitioners around the world, incorporating the most recent information on epidemiology, immunopathogenesis, comorbidities, quality of life, clinical case presentations, and the management of chronic spontaneous and chronic inducible urticaria, and urticaria in special situations such as childhood and pregnancy. A special task force of WAO experts was invited to write the different sections of the manuscript, and the final document was approved by the WAO Board of Directors. This paper is not intended to be a substitute for current national and international guidelines on the management of urticaria and angioedema, but to provide an updated simplified guidance for physicians around the world who have to manage patients with this common ailment.

Abstract
The cryopyrin-associated periodic syndromes (CAPS) are usually caused by heterozygous NLRP3 gene variants, resulting in excessive inflammasome activation with subsequent overproduction of interleukin (IL)-1β. The CAPS spectrum includes mild, moderate, and severe phenotypes. The mild phenotype is called familial cold autoinflammatory syndrome (FCAS), the moderate phenotype is also known as Muckle-Wells syndrome (MWS), and the neonatal-onset multisystem inflammatory disease (NOMID)/chronic infantile neurologic cutaneous articular syndrome (CINCA) describes the severe phenotype. The CAPS phenotypes display unspecific and unique clinical signs. Dermatologic, musculoskeletal, ocular, otologic, and neurologic disease symptoms combined with chronic systemic inflammation are characteristic. Nevertheless, making the CAPS diagnosis is challenging as several patients show a heterogeneous multi-system clinical presentation and the spectrum of genetic variants is growing. Somatic mosaicisms and low-penetrance variants lead to atypical clinical symptoms and disease courses. To avoid morbidity and to reduce mortality, early diagnosis is crucial, and a targeted anti-IL-1 therapy should be started as soon as possible. Furthermore, continuous and precise monitoring of disease activity, organ damage, and health-related quality of life is important. This review summarizes the current evidence in diagnosis and management of patients with CAPS.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The nucleotide-binding oligomerization domain-like receptor protein 12 (NLRP12)-autoinflammatory disorder (NLRP12-AD) is a rare autoinflammatory disease characterized by recurrent fever, rash as well as musculoskeletal symptoms, which is rarely reported in Asian populations. METHODS Three cases of NLRP12-AD presented to our hospital were studied after parental consents were obtained. Clinical presentations were recorded on a standardized case report form. Mutations of NLRP12 were detected by primary immunodeficiency disease panels and further examined by Sanger sequencing. PubMed literature search for relevant studies of systemic autoinflammatory disorders, especially NLRP12-AD between January, 2000 and January, 2019 was carried and the clinical data were summarized. Comparisons were made between groups in terms of onset age and of ethnicity. RESULTS All our patients presented with fever, rash and arthritis/arthralgia, and sensorineural as well as sensorineural deafness (1/3), uveitis (1/3), abdominal pain (1/3), and myalgia (1/3). Two novel mutation variations, p.W581X and p.L558R, are reported here. In addition, we also found that two patients inherited the mutated alleles from their healthy parents, and this may be evidence of haploinsufficiency. CONCLUSIONS Although the genotypes are similar, the clinical manifestations between Chinese patients and Western patients vary thus highlighting the possible influence of ethnic and environmental factors. On the other hand, some genetic mutations may lead to specific phenotype, as we have found a high prevalence of sensorineural hearing loss among p.R284X patients.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Several therapies are used for the treatment of rareautoinflammatory conditions like cryopyrin-associated periodic fever syndromes (CAPS), hyperimmunoglobulin Dsyndrome (HIDS)/mevalonate kinase deficiency (MKD) and tumour necrosis factor receptor-associated periodic syndrome (TRAPS). However, reviews reporting on treatment outcomes of these therapies are lacking. METHODS A systematic literature review was conducted using Embase, MEDLINE, MEDLINE-In Process and Cochrane databases to identify the randomised/non-randomised controlled trials (RCTs/non-RCTs) and real-world observational studies of CAPS, HIDS/MKD and TRAPS published as full-texts (January 2000-September 2017) or conference abstracts (January 2014-September 2017). Studies with data for ≥1 biologic were included. Studies with <5 patients were excluded. RESULTS Of the 3 342 retrieved publications, 72 studies were included (CAPS, n=43; HIDS/MKD, n=9; TRAPS, n=7; studies with ≥2 cohorts, n=13). Most studies were full-text (n=56), published after 2010 (n=56) and real-world observational studies (n=58). Among included studies, four were RCTs (canakinumab, n=2 (CAPS, n=1; HIDS/MKD and TRAPS, n=1); rilonacept, n=1 (in CAPS); simvastatin, n=1 (in HIDS/MKD)). Canakinumab and anakinra were the most commonly used therapies for CAPS and HIDS/MKD, whereas etanercept, canakinumab and anakinra were the most common for TRAPS. The available evidence suggested the efficacy or effectiveness of canakinumab and anakinra in CAPS, HIDS/MKD and TRAPS, and of etanercept in TRAPS; asingle RCT demonstrated the efficacy of rilonacept in CAPS. CONCLUSIONS Canakinumab, anakinra, etanercept and rilonacept were reported to be well tolerated; however, injection-site reactions were observed frequently with anakinra, rilonacept and etanercept. Data on the use of tocilizumab, infliximab and adalimumab in these conditions were limited; thus, further research is warranted.

Abstract
Cryopyrin-associated periodic fever syndrome (CAPS) is a highly debilitating disorder, which is characterized by unregulated interleukin-1β production driven by autosomal dominantly inherited mutations in the NLRP3 gene. Patients with CAPS often present with early-onset episodes of fever and rash. These patients also present with variable systemic signs and symptoms, such as arthritis, sensorineural hearing loss, chronic aseptic meningitis, and skeletal abnormalities, but minimal gastrointestinal symptoms. Recently, effective therapies for CAPS targeted against interleukin-1 have become available. We report a case of a young Japanese woman with CAPS who developed inflammatory bowel disease during canakinumab therapy. The patient had colostomy after intestinal perforation and changed canakinumab to infliximab. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report of a case of inflammatory bowel disease secondary to CAPS complicated by gastrointestinal symptoms and arthritis which canakinumab could not control. Patients with CAPS who have symptoms that cannot be controlled by canakinumab should be considered for possible co-morbidities.

Abstract
Cryopyrin-associated periodic fever syndrome (CAPS) represents an increasingly recognized disease group entity, with varied presentations. CAPS includes 3 clinical entities, namely, familial cold-induced autoinflammatory syndrome (FCAS; MIM #120100), Muckle-Wells syndrome (MWS; MIM #191900) and chronic inflammatory neurologic cutaneous and articular syndrome (CINCA; MIM #607115); which share several overlapping clinical features. These patients often present with early-onset episodes of fever and rash, and variable systemic signs and symptoms, making it a great mimicker of other systemic autoimmune diseases. The episodes are transient and related to exposure to cold temperature and worsen in the winter season. We hereby present a case presenting with recurrent seasonal fever and rash, diagnosed as FCAS/ MWS overlap based on clinical signs and symptoms and positive testing for NLRP3 gene mutation. We also discuss the clinical presentation and complications of CAPS, chiefly FCAS and MWS, along with the previously described pediatric cases of CAPS. We tried to review the complexities of management of such patients, including the genetic diagnosis and the role of biological therapy. Based on the review of the literature, given the evident broad spectrum of symptoms and signs, use of next-generation sequencing can help in prompt diagnosis and early initiation of biological agents, which may play a great role in reducing the complications that these patients may experience in the long run.

Abstract
Primary immunodeficiency diseases (PIDs) are characterized by an increased risk of infections, autoimmunity, autoinflammation, malignancy, and allergic disorders. Skin disorders are also common clinical features in PIDs and may be among the presenting manifestations. Recognition of specific PID-associated skin conditions in combination with other clinical features as described in the currently used warning signs could raise suspicion of an underlying PID. We aimed to provide a systematically obtained overview of skin disorders and their prevalence in PIDs. Secondary, the prevalence of Staphylococcus (S.) aureus-associated skin disorders and atopy was reviewed, as these are the most prominent skin features in PIDs. A systematic search was performed in EMBASE, MEDLINE, Web of Science, Cochrane, and Google Scholar (up to May 9, 2018). All original observational and experimental human studies that address the presence of skin disorders in PIDs were selected. We rated study quality using the Institute of Health Economics Quality Appraisal Checklist for Case Series Studies. Sixty-seven articles (5030 patients) were included. Study quality ranged from 18.2% to 88.5%. A broad spectrum of skin disorders was reported in 30 PIDs, mostly in single studies with a low number of included patients. An overview of associated PIDs per skin disorder was generated. Data on S. aureus-associated skin disorders and atopy in PIDs were limited. In conclusion, skin disorders are prominent features in PIDs. Through clustering of PIDs per skin disorder, we provide a support tool to use in clinical practice that should raise awareness of PIDs based on presenting skin manifestations.

Abstract
We report two unrelated infants in whom chronic urticaria was the first clinical manifestation of cryopyrin-associated periodic syndrome, which should be suspected in infants with early-onset chronic urticaria, especially if there is a neutrophil-rich infiltrate in the skin biopsy. Early diagnosis of cryopyrin-associated periodic syndrome may lead to early and successful treatment with anti-interleukin-1 medications.

Abstract
Cryopyrin-associated periodic syndrome (CAPS) is one of the autoinflammatory disorders caused by mutations in NLRP3 gene. The over-production of interleukin (IL)-1β induced by NLRP3 gene mutations plays an important role in the pathophysiology of CAPS. We diagnosed 3 patients with CAPS, who were lineal family members having a novel mutation of NLRP3 gene. The objective of this report is to compare the characteristics of symptoms and differences in the therapeutic responses of them, who had the same mutation. In addition, we aimed to examine the usefulness of cytokine measurement for diagnosis or determination of treatment effect of CAPS. A 5-year-old Japanese boy (proband) came to our hospital because of short stature, reached the diagnosis of Muckle-Wells syndrome (MWS) due to a mutation in NLRP3 gene, which had not been reported so far (p.G328E, c.G983A). His mother and grandmother harbored the same mutation of NLRP3. We measured serum concentrations of cytokines in the proband assessed by flow-cytometric bead array. All of them had episodic skin eruptions with conjunctivitis, hearing loss, and arthralgia, but not periodic fever, cold-triggered episodes, and chronic aseptic meningitis. Only the proband had short stature. Canakinumab therapy led to a prompt relief of symptoms and normalized laboratory data in all patients. Audiograms demonstrated an improved hearing level in the proband, but not two others despite of the same mutation. All cytokines did not show any characteristic findings. Sensorineural hearing loss and itchless rash but not serum cytokine profile deserved attention to the diagnosis and treatment start of CAPS. The early intervention of IL-1β blockade may reduce the chance of complete deafness in patients with CAPS.

Abstract
Cryopyrin-associated periodic syndrome (CAPS) is a monogenetic auto-inflammatory disorder with systemic manifestations. Innate immune system aberrance is seen in both CAPS and erythema nodosum and this case may point to a previously unknown association. In pediatric patients with EN and systemic features, the possibility of underlying CAPS should be considered.

Abstract
Background Cryopyrin-associated periodic syndrome (CAPS) is a rare disease. Knowledge on the quality of life (QoL) and the disease’s societal impact is limited. Canakinumab is used in increasing frequency for the treatment of CAPS. Methods Observational study in Dutch CAPS patients. Patients completed questionnaires regarding treatment with canakinumab at baseline and retrospectively. Quality of life was assessed using the EQ-5D-5L in adults and CHQ-PF50 in children. Impact on work and school was assessed. Caregivers' quality of life was assessed using the CarerQol. Results Mean quality of life scores during treatment with canakinumab were 0.769 (EQ-5D-5L), 51.1 (CHQ-P) and 57–1 (CHQ-M). Most patients experienced problems on the pain/discomfort dimension. Higher disease activity and the presence of complications negatively influenced QoL. Half of the patients with a paid job reported absenteeism from work due to CAPS, for an average of 8.7 days in a 4-week period. All schoolgoing patients (N = 5) reported absence from school due to CAPS, for an average of 2.9 days. Caregivers reported gaining a lot fulfillment from providing care for their family members. Conclusion QoL during treatment is lower than in the general Dutch population. CAPS leads to productivity loss and absenteeism from school, and impacts the quality of life in informal caregivers.

Abstract
There are substantial knowledge gaps related to diagnosis and management of pediatric cases of chronic urticaria, and in particular chronic spontaneous urticaria (CSU). In this article we aimed to review the diagnosis and management of chronic urticaria in children and CSU in particular. We conducted a systematic review of articles published in English and French on pediatric CSU management in the last 10 years. We included experimental studies (eg, randomized controlled trials), other experimental designs (eg, nonrandomized methods of assignment, controlled before-after studies, and interrupted time series), and observational studies (eg, prospective or retrospective cohort studies, cross-sectional studies, case-control studies, and case reports). Our findings highlight the efficacy of second-generation antihistamines for the treatment of CSU in children and supports the use of omalizumab for more severe cases. However, our study also reveals severe knowledge gaps related to the best management strategy in children with more severe/refractory cases of CSU. Future studies are required to establish the beneficial effect of high doses of second-generation antihistamines as well as the effectiveness and safety of omalizumab and other biologics in young children.

Abstract
Cryopyrin-associated periodic syndromes (CAPS) are linked to one single gene mutations, however they are associated with 3 syndromes, which are, from the mildest to the most severe phenotype familial cold urticaria, Muckle-Wells syndrome and chronic, infantile, neurologic, cutaneous, articular (CINCA) syndrome also called neonatal-onset multisystem inflammatory disease (NOMID). Autosomic dominant inheritance is present in most cases but in CINCA/NOMID syndrome where neomutations are more common. Mutations in the gene encoding cryopyrin, NLRP3, are associated with deregulation of caspase-1 activity, excessive interleukin-1 production and an autoinflammatory syndrome, which in familial cold urticaria and Muckle-Wells syndrome may be triggered or worsened by exposure to coldness. More and more mutations are described and even somatic mutations that can explain some clinical signs beginning in adulthood. Patients disclose a pseudo-urticarial rash, arthralgia, headaches, sometimes fever, biological inflammation but also, in severe forms of the disease, neurologic inflammation with central deafness, ophthalmologic inflammation, chronic meningitis. Some CINCA/NOMID patients also develop growth cartilage pseudo-tumoral hypertrophy. Natural disease history is usually benign in familial cold urticarial but severe in the other forms, particularly regarding neuro-sensorial involvement. In addition, secondary AA amyloidosis may develop in all forms in the absence of control of chronic inflammation. Anti-interleukin-1 treatment with anakinra, rilonacept or canakinumab induces in most cases complete remission, however sequelae may be present, particularly if central deafness or cartilage bone hypertrophy have already developed. This treatment is also important to prevent secondary amyloidosis or stabilize and even sometimes allow improvement of amyloidosis lesions.
