Abstract
Juvenile Idiopathic Arthritis (JIA) is sometimes considered a diagnosis of exclusion as the name signifies that no cause is evident for this form of arthritis. Despite this JIA has some classical clinical features and many categories are defined based on the phenotype. Since there is no diagnostic test for JIA, diseases that can mimic JIA, including Primary Immunodeficiencies (PID) can sometimes be misdiagnosed as JIA. The clues to suspecting PIDs are early age of onset, presence of family history, increased susceptibility to infections, unusual features like urticaria, interstitial lung disease, sensorineural hearing loss and poor response to conventional therapy, amongst others. This review will highlight the basics of PIDs and will discuss PIDs that can present with arthritis and hence can be confused with JIA.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To study the molecular pathogenesis of PAPA (pyogenic arthritis, pyoderma gangrenosum and acne) syndrome, a debilitating hereditary autoinflammatory disease caused by dominant mutation in PSTPIP1. METHODS Gene knock-out and knock-in mice were generated to develop an animal model. THP1 and retrovirally transduced U937 human myeloid leukaemia cell lines, peripheral blood mononuclear cells, small interfering RNA (siRNA) knock-down, site-directed mutagenesis, cytokine immunoassays, coimmunoprecipitation and immunoblotting were used to study inflammasome activation. Cytokine levels in the skin were evaluated by immunohistochemistry. Responsiveness to Janus kinase (JAK) inhibitors was evaluated ex vivo with peripheral blood mononuclear cells and in vivo in five treatment-refractory PAPA patients. RESULTS The knock-in mouse model of PAPA did not recapitulate the human disease. In a human myeloid cell line model, PAPA-associated PSTPIP1 mutations activated the pyrin inflammasome, but not the NLRP3, NLRC4 or AIM2 inflammasomes. Pyrin inflammasome activation was independent of the canonical pathway of pyrin serine dephosphorylation and was blocked by the p.W232A PSTPIP1 mutation, which disrupts pyrin-PSTPIP1 interaction. IFN-γ priming of monocytes from PAPA patients led to IL-18 release in a pyrin-dependent manner. IFN-γ was abundant in the inflamed dermis of PAPA patients, but not patients with idiopathic pyoderma gangrenosum. Ex vivo JAK inhibitor treatment attenuated IFN-γ-mediated pyrin induction and IL-18 release. In 5/5 PAPA patients, the addition of JAK inhibitor therapy to IL-1 inhibition was associated with clinical improvement. CONCLUSION PAPA-associated PSTPIP1 mutations trigger a pyrin-IL-18-IFN-γ positive feedback loop that drives PAPA disease activity and is a target for JAK inhibition.

Abstract
Postoperative pyoderma gangrenosum and peristomal pyoderma gangrenosum are 2 subtypes of pyoderma gangrenosum. The diagnosis is made as a clinicopathologic correlation when assessing a rapidly progressing ulcer with irregular and undermined borders following a surgical procedure, trauma, or the creation of a stoma. Familiarity with the associated risk factors and distinguishing features of these disorders can facilitate prompt recognition, proper diagnosis, and the initiation of treatment. Management usually involves the use of corticosteroids and steroid-sparing agents as immunomodulators to shift the inflammatory neutrophilic dermatoses to chronic noninflammatory wounds and eventual healing.

Abstract
Pyoderma gangrenosum (PG) is an uncommon inflammatory dermatological disorder characterized by painful ulcers that quickly spread peripherally. The pathophysiology of PG is not fully understood; however, it is most commonly considered a disease in the spectrum of neutrophilic dermatoses. The treatment of PG remains challenging due to the lack of generally accepted therapeutic guidelines. Existing therapeutic methods focus on limiting inflammation through the use of immunosuppressive and immunomodulatory therapies. Recently, several reports have indicated the successful use of biologic drugs and small molecules administered for coexisting diseases, resulting in ulcer healing. In this review, we summarize the discoveries regarding the pathophysiology of PG and present treatment options to raise awareness and improve the management of this rare entity.

Abstract
Pyoderma gangrenosum (PG) is a rare ulcerative neutrophilic dermatosis that is occasionally associated with primary immunodeficiency. Though contributions from dysregulation of the innate immune system, neutrophil dysfunction and genetic predisposition have been postulated, the precise pathogenesis of PG has not yet been elucidated. This article reviews reported cases of coexisting PG and primary immunodeficiency in order to gain insight into the complex pathophysiology of PG. Our findings suggest that variations in genes such as RAG1, ITGB2, IRF2BP2 and NFκB1 might play a role in genetically predisposing patients to develop PG. These studies support the feasibility of the role of somatic gene variation in the pathogenesis of PG which warrants further exploration to guide targeted therapeutics.

Detection of a rare variant in PSTPIP1 through three generations in a family with an initial diagnosis of FMF/MKD-overlapping phenotype. Rheumatology (Oxford) 2023; 62:3188-3196.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The presence of FMF cases without MEFV (MEFV innate immunity regulator, pyrin) pathogenic variants led us to search for other genes' involvement in the disease development. Here, we describe the presence of genetic heterogeneity in a three-generation family with an FMF/mevalonate kinase deficiency (MKD)-overlapping phenotype without MEFV/MVK (mevalonate kinase) pathogenic variants. METHOD Targeted sequencing revealed a rare, fully penetrant variant in PSTPIP1 (p.Arg228Cys, rs781341816). Computational stability analyses of PSTPIP1 protein were performed. PSTPIP1-pyrin protein interaction was examined by immunoprecipitation and immunoblotting in peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) of patients and healthy controls. PBMCs were cultured, and inflammation was induced by LPS+ATP treatment, followed by protein level measurements of caspase-1, IL1ß, pyrin and PSTPIP1 in cell lysates and mature caspase-1 and mature IL1ß in supernatants. RESULTS The conserved, rare (GnomAD, 0.000028) PSTPIP1 p.Arg228Cys variant, previously reported in ClinVar as a variant with uncertain significance, showed complete penetrance in the family presenting an autosomal dominant pattern. Computational analyses showed a potentially destabilizing effect of the variant on PSTPIP1 protein. Accordingly, PSTPIP1-pyrin interaction was increased in patients harboring the variant, which resulted in elevated levels of mature caspase-1 and IL1ß in the inflammation-induced patient samples. CONCLUSIONS Unlike previously described cases with pyogenic arthritis, pyoderma gangrenosum, and acne (PAPA)-associated PSTPIP1 variants, our patients with the p.Arg228Cys variant presented with an FMF/MKD-overlapping phenotype. As additional data on the genetic heterogeneity in the variable clinical spectrum of autoinflammatory syndromes, we suggest that the p.Arg228Cys variant in PSTPIP1 is related to inflammation responses through strong PSTPIP1-pyrin interaction and pyrin inflammasome activation.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Chronic non-bacterial osteomyelitis (CNO) is an autoinflammatory bone disease that most commonly affects children and adolescents causing significant pain and damage to bones. The absence of diagnostic criteria and biomarkers, an incomplete understanding of the molecular pathophysiology, and lack of evidence from randomized and controlled trials make the diagnosis and care challenging. AREAS COVERED This review provides an overview of the clinical and epidemiological features of CNO and displays diagnostic challenges and how they can be addressed following strategies used internationally and by the authors. It summarizes the molecular pathophysiology, including pathological activation of the NLRP3 inflammasome and IL-1 secretion, and how these observations can inform future treatment strategies. Finally, it provides a summary of ongoing initiatives aiming at classification criteria (ACR/EULAR) and outcome measures (OMERACT) that will enable the generation of evidence through clinical trials. EXPERT OPINION Scientific efforts have linked molecular mechanisms to cytokine dysregulation in CNO, thereby delivering arguments for cytokine blocking strategies. Recent and ongoing collaborative international efforts are providing the basis to move toward clinical trials and target directed treatments for CNO that find approval by regulatory agencies.

Abstract
Objectives Chronic non-bacterial osteomyelitis (CNO) is a rare polygenic autoinflammatory bone disease. We aimed to characterize the clinical manifestations and gene variants of Chinese adult patients with CNO. Methods By reviewing data of all CNO patients being diagnosed and followed up at the Center for Adult Autoinflammation Diseases, Department of Rheumatology, Peking Union Medical College Hospital, clinical and genetic features of these patients were evaluated and concluded. Results The median age of disease onset was 19 (6-64) years old, and adult-onset was observed in 6 (60%) patients. The mean time of diagnosis delay was 92 ± 78 months. The common symptoms were bone pain (10, 100%), fever (9, 90%), and arthritis (6, 60%). In total, there were 54 skeletal lesions, and each patient had no less than 2 lesions. The most frequently affected sites included lower limbs (20.5%), mandible, vertebrae and pelvis (17.5%, separately). Variants of 4 genes were detected in our study including COL1A1, PSTPIP1, LRP5 and CLCN7. In seven patients who were treated with combination therapy containing tumor necrosis factor (TNF) α inhibitors, five (55.6%) had a complete response and 2 (44.4%) had a partial response. Conclusion This is the first and largest case series of CNO in the Chinese adult patients. Four novel genetic mutations potentially associated with CNO were identified. Notably, CNO should be considered in the differential diagnosis of adult patients with long disease course and recurrent multifocal osteomyelitis of unknown cause, and these patients might benefit from combination therapy containing TNFα inhibitors.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Chronic recurrent multifocal osteomyelitis (CRMO) is a rare autoinflammatory bone disease for which a lack of bacterial involvement is a key diagnostic feature to distinguish it from other symptomatically related diseases. However, the growing evidence suggesting an involvement of the host-associated microbiota in rheumatic disorders together with the now wide accessibility of modern culture-independent methods warrant a closer examination of CRMO. METHODS In this study, we show through bacterial 16S rRNA gene profiling that numerous features of the oral- and fecal microbial communities differentiate children with and without CRMO. RESULTS Notably, communities in diseased children are characterized by a lack of potential probiotic bacteria in the fecal community and an overabundance of known pathobionts in the oral microbial communities. Of special interest is the HACEK group, a set of commonly known oral pathogens that are implicated in the development of several acute and chronic diseases such as osteitis and rheumatoid arthritis. Furthermore, we observe that gut bacterial communities in the diseased children appear to reflect an altered host physiology more strongly than the oral community, which could suggest an oral disease origin followed by propagation and/or responses beyond the oral cavity. CONCLUSIONS Bacterial communities, in particular the oral microbiota, may serve as an indicator of underlying susceptibility to CRMO, or play a yet undefined role in its development.

Abstract
Background PAPA syndrome (MIM #604416) is a rare monogenic autoinflammatory disease genetically transmitted in an autosomal dominant trait that results from missense mutations in the proline-serine-threonine phosphatase-interactive protein 1 (PSTPIP1) gene located on chromosome 15 and is characterized by sterile pyogenic arthritis, pyoderma gangrenosum, and cystic acne. We describe the clinical and molecular findings of two related Brazilian patients with PAPA syndrome. Case Presentation. A 7-year-and-3-month-old boy with nonconsanguineous parents had had recurrent pyoarthritis since the age of 5 years and 8 months. During his last and long hospitalization, the lack of improvement with antibiotics, evidence of increased inflammatory activity, repeated arthrotomies, draining purulent fluid that had negative cultures, and the history of trauma, all on in a clinical background of pyoarthritis, led to the suspicion of an autoinflammatory syndrome. This was confirmed by the good clinical response to corticotherapy. Genetic sequencing confirmed the diagnosis of PAPA syndrome, with the pathogenic mutation c.688 G > A (p. Ala230Thr) in the PSTPIP1 gene present in the patient and in the mother. Conclusions This case illustrates that in children with recurrent/recalcitrant sterile recurrent pyogenic arthritis/osteomyelitis, the possibility of an underlying immunological condition should be considered. In both, recurrent infections or recurrent inflammation, many genes involved in the inborn errors of immunity can be associated, and a correct and precocious diagnosis is necessary to avoid mobility and mortality. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report of PAPA syndrome in Brazil.

Abstract
BACKGROUND/OBJECTIVES Chronic nonbacterial osteomyelitis (CNO) is an inflammatory disease characterized by recurrent attacks and remissions due to sterile bone inflammation. The CNO may be accompanied by various inflammatory diseases. The aims of our study were to determine the clinical, laboratory, and radiological characteristics of children with CNO, and to investigate the possible effect of concomitant diseases on the course of CNO. METHODS Twenty-three patients who were diagnosed with CNO between 2012 and 2019 were analyzed. Demographic characteristics, clinical courses, laboratory and imaging findings, and concomitant diseases were recorded. The characteristics of the CNO patients with and without concomitant diseases were compared. RESULTS The mean ± SD age of patients at the time of diagnosis and the last follow-up was 10.46 ± 4.1 and 12.47 ± 4.47 years, respectively. The median (range) time interval between disease onset and diagnosis was 5.33 (1-55) months. The mean ± SD duration of disease was 24.71 ± 16.76 months. Twelve patients (52.2%) were male. The most commonly affected areas were femur (74%), tibia/fibula (74%), and pelvis (52.2%). Age at symptom onset, age at diagnosis, mean number of lesions, presence of sacroiliitis, acute phase reactants at the start of disease, clinical and radiological remission rates, and treatment responses were not significantly different between the 13 patients with concomitant diseases and those without. Eight patients (34.8%) had familial Mediterranean fever (FMF), and all of them had exon 10 mutations. Four patients (17.4%) had juvenile spondylarthritis, one had inflammatory bowel disease, and one had psoriatic arthritis as concomitant diseases. Clinical remission was achieved in 19 patients (82.6%) and complete remission in 11 patients (47.8%) at the time of follow-up. CONCLUSIONS In our cohort, half of the patients with CNO had concomitant diseases, with FMF being the most common. We think that the coexistence of FMF and CNO is not a coincidental one and that both may result due to an abnormality of a common pathogenetic pathway.

Abstract
Pyogenic arthritis, pyoderma gangrenosum and acne (PAPA) syndrome, and the proline-serine-threonine phosphatase-interacting protein 1 (PSTPIP1)-associated myeloid-related proteinemia inflammatory (PAMI) syndrome are two distinct clinical conditions caused by heterozygous mutations of the PSTPIP1 gene. While skin and joint involvements are shared by both conditions, PAMI is characterized by hepatosplenomegaly, pancytopenia, and growth failure. Kidney involvement is exceptional in PSTPIP1-mediated disorders. The two missense PSTPIP1 variants associated with PAMI syndrome are p.E250K and p.E257K. Long-term treatment with interleukin (IL)-1 inhibitors is effective to control inflammatory manifestations and is usually well-tolerated. We report a case of a patient carrying the PSTPIP1 p.E250K mutation who developed a late-onset kidney involvement despite a long treatment with canakinumab and anakinra. Kidney biopsy showed focal segmental glomerulosclerosis that was treated with tacrolimus (0.1 mg/kg/day in two doses). A literature revision with the aim to assess the proportion and type of kidney involvement in PAMI syndrome revealed that heterogeneous nephropathies may be part of the clinical spectrum. Our study supports the importance of a periodic diagnostic work-up, including kidney laboratory tests and kidney biopsy, in individuals affected with PAMI syndrome. Kidney and liver functions may be impaired regardless of anti-cytokines treatments and additional therapy approaches (i.e., multi-drugs, hematopoietic stem cell transplantation) should be carefully considered.

Abstract
Autoinflammatory syndromes are disorders characterized by recurrent or chronic inflammation caused by the dysregulation of the innate immune system. Hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis (HLH) is an aggressive and life-threatening syndrome of overactivation of the immune system. We present a case of a 20-month-old boy who was referred to an oncology clinic because of HLH suspicion. In the preceding time, our patient suffered from a severe form of chickenpox with prolonged fever. Tests including myelogram, cerebrospinal fluid, and magnetic resonance (MR) of the brain gave a diagnosis of acute lymphoblastic leukemia from B lymphocyte precursors, without occupying the central nervous system. To exclude inherited HLH in our patient, next-generation sequencing was performed, which revealed a heterozygous missense mutation in exon 15 of the PSTPIP1 gene (c.1213C>T, R405C). No mutations of genes associated with familial HLH syndrome were found. Our patient may be evidence that autoinflammatory diseases caused by PSTPIP1 gene mutations are not limited to the classical pyogenic arthritis, pyoderma gangrenosum, and acne (PAPA) phenotype but may have a different clinical presentation, and the spectrum of the PSTPIP1-associated inflammatory diseases (PAID) syndrome is more extensive than previously thought.

Abstract
Objectives This study aims to describe the characteristics of patients diagnosed with pyogenic arthritis, pyoderma gangrenosum, and acne (PAPA) syndrome at a single center in China and provide an up-to-date literature review. Methods The clinical data and genotype of three Chinese Han patients were carefully documented and studied. We also conducted a systematic literature review on PAPA syndrome. Results A total of three patients were diagnosed with PAPA syndrome at our center from 2018 to 2020. Arthritis was observed in all three patients, while pyoderma gangrenosum (PG) was found in two patients and acne in one patient. Other manifestations included pathergy reaction, intermittent fever, oral ulcer, keratitis, proteinuria, and hematuria. The PSTPIP1 A230T mutation was identified in two patients, and a novel Y119C variation was revealed in a sporadic patient. A total of 76 patients with PAPA syndrome reported in 29 articles were included in our literature review. The classical triad of arthritis, PG, and acne was visible in only 16 (25.4%) patients, while 24 (38.1%) exhibited only one major symptom. Skin lesions were more commonly seen in patients with adult-onset disease than those with childhood-onset disease (100 vs. 83%), whereas arthritis was less common (50 vs. 98.1%). Steroid and/or biological agents were effective in most patients. Conclusions The rarity and phenotypic heterogeneity associated with PAPA syndrome make the diagnosis a huge challenge to physicians, especially in adult patients. A significant portion of patients did not exhibit the full spectrum of the classical triad. Accordingly, gene testing is critically helpful for diagnosis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Pyogenic arthritis, pyoderma gangrenosum, and acne (PAPA) syndrome is a rare autosomal dominant genetic disease characterized by severe autoimmune inflammation, caused by mutations in the PSTPIP1 gene. Due to PAPA heterogeneous clinical manifestation, misdiagnosis or delayed diagnoses are difficult to avoid. With the use of whole-exome sequencing, we identified a missense mutation in the PSTPIP1 gene in a Chinese family. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first case of PAPA reported in China.
CASE SUMMARY A 9-year-old boy suffered from recurrent aseptic pyogenic arthritis triggered by minor trauma or few obvious predisposing causes for more than 3 years. Pyogenic arthritis occurred every 3-5 mo, affecting his knees, elbows, and ankle joints. Treatments, such as glucocorticoids, antibiotics, even surgeries could alleviate joints pain and swelling to some extent but could not inhibit the recurrence of arthritis. Similar symptoms were present in his younger brother but not in his parents. According to the whole-exome sequencing, a missense mutation in exon 11 of the PSTPIP1 gene (c.748G>C; p.E250Q) was detected in the boy, his younger brother and his father. Taking into account the similar phenotypic features with PAPA syndrome reported previously, we confirmed a diagnosis of PAPA syndrome for the family.
CONCLUSION In this case, a missense mutation (c.748G>C; p.E250Q) in PSTPIP1 gene was identified in a Chinese family with PAPA syndrome. Previous studies emphasize the fact that PAPA syndrome is hard to diagnose just through the clinical manifestations owing to its heterogeneous expression. Genetic testing is an effectual auxiliary diagnostic method, especially in the early stages of pyogenic arthritis. Only if we have a deep understanding and rich experience of this rare disease can we make a prompt diagnosis, develop the best clinical treatment plan, and give good fertility guidance.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Rare diseases (RDs) affect less than 5/10,000 people in Europe and fewer than 200,000 individuals in the United States. In rheumatology, RDs are heterogeneous and lack systemic classification. Clinical courses involve a variety of diverse symptoms, and patients may be misdiagnosed and not receive appropriate treatment. The objective of this study was to identify and classify some of the most important RDs in rheumatology. We also attempted to determine their combined prevalence to more precisely define this area of rheumatology and increase awareness of RDs in healthcare systems. We conducted a comprehensive literature search and analyzed each disease for the specified criteria, such as clinical symptoms, treatment regimens, prognoses, and point prevalences. If no epidemiological data were available, we estimated the prevalence as 1/1,000,000. The total point prevalence for all RDs in rheumatology was estimated as the sum of the individually determined prevalences. RESULTS A total of 76 syndromes and diseases were identified, including vasculitis/vasculopathy (n = 15), arthritis/arthropathy (n = 11), autoinflammatory syndromes (n = 11), myositis (n = 9), bone disorders (n = 11), connective tissue diseases (n = 8), overgrowth syndromes (n = 3), and others (n = 8). Out of the 76 diseases, 61 (80%) are classified as chronic, with a remitting-relapsing course in 27 cases (35%) upon adequate treatment. Another 34 (45%) diseases were predominantly progressive and difficult to control. Corticosteroids are a therapeutic option in 49 (64%) syndromes. Mortality is variable and could not be determined precisely. Epidemiological studies and prevalence data were available for 33 syndromes and diseases. For an additional eight diseases, only incidence data were accessible. The summed prevalence of all RDs was 28.8/10,000. CONCLUSIONS RDs in rheumatology are frequently chronic, progressive, and present variable symptoms. Treatment options are often restricted to corticosteroids, presumably because of the scarcity of randomized controlled trials. The estimated combined prevalence is significant and almost double that of ankylosing spondylitis (18/10,000). Thus, healthcare systems should assign RDs similar importance as any other common disease in rheumatology.

Abstract
Chronic nonbacterial osteomyelitis (CNO) is an auto-inflammatory bone disorder with a wide spectrum of clinical manifestations, from unifocal to multifocal lesions. When it manifests with multifocal lesions, it is also referred to as chronic recurrent multifocal osteomyelitis (CRMO). CNO/CRMO can affect all age groups, with the pediatric population being the most common. Patients may present with systemic inflammation, but there is no pathognomonic laboratory finding. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is the gold standard radiological tool for diagnosis. In the absence of validated diagnostic criteria, CNO/CRMO remains an exclusion diagnosis. Bone biopsy does not show a specific disease pattern, but it may be necessary in unifocal or atypical cases to differentiate it from malignancy or infection. First-line treatments are non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), while bisphosphonates or TNF-α blockers can be used in refractory cases. The disease course is unpredictable, and uncontrolled lesions can complicate with bone fractures and deformations, underlying the importance of long-term follow-up in these patients.

Abstract
Autoinflammation is defined by aberrant, antigen-independent activation of the innate immune signaling pathways. This leads to increased, pro-inflammatory cytokine expression and subsequent inflammation. In contrast, autoimmune and allergic diseases are antigen-directed immune responses from activation of the adaptive immune system. The innate and adaptive immune signaling pathways are closely interconnected. The group of 'complex multigenic diseases' are a result of mutual dysregulation of both the autoinflammatory and autoimmune physiologic components. In contrast, monogenic autoinflammatory syndromes (MAIS) result from single mutations and are exclusively autoinflammatory in their pathogenesis. Studying the clinical and histopathological findings for the various MAIS explains the phenotypical correlates of their specific mutations. This review aims to group the histopathologic clues for autoinflammation into three recognizable patterns. The presence of these histologic patterns in a pediatric patient with recurrent fevers and systemic inflammation should raise suspicion of an autoinflammatory component in MAIS, or, more frequently, in a complex multigenic disease. The three major histopathological patterns seen in autoinflammation are as follows: (i) the 'neutrophilic' pattern, seen in urticarial neutrophilic dermatosis, pustular psoriasis, aseptic neutrophilic folliculitis, and Sweet's syndrome; (ii) the 'vasculitic' pattern seen in small vessel-vasculitis (including hypersensitivity/leukocytoclastic vasculitis, thrombosing microangiopathy and lymphocytic vasculitis), and intermediate-sized vessel vasculitis, mimicking polyarteritis nodosa; and (iii) the 'granulomatous' pattern. Beyond these three patterns, there are additional histopathologic clues, which are detailed below. It is important for a dermatopathologist to recognize the patterns of autoinflammation, so that a diagnosis of MAIS or complex multigenic diseases may be obtained. Finally, careful histopathologic analyses could contribute to a better understanding of the various clinical manifestations of autoinflammation.

Abstract
AIM This case-controlled study aimed at evaluating whether enthesitis is possibly associated with acne vulgaris. METHODS This study was carried out on 90 patients with acne vulgaris and 30 normal individuals who were subjected to full history talking, acne scoring system, general, dermatological, musculoskeletal examination, and musculoskeletal ultrasonography with Doppler flow. RESULTS A significant relation (P < 0.05) was discovered between left femoral condyle tenderness, which increased left femoral condyle hypoechogenicity on ultrasound. Moreover, a highly significant relation (P < 0.001) was established between tenderness on clinical examination and hypoechogenicity on ultrasound at three sites (right humerus epicondyle, right femoral condyle, and left humerus epicondyle). An association between tenderness and ultrasound increased thickness was significantly reported in the left femoral condyle (P < 0.05). Hypoechogenicity on ultrasound examination was more statistically evident with increased acne severity at the left Achilles tendon (LA), while enthesis calcifications (enthesophytes) were significantly associated with increased acne severity in the left humerus epicondyle (LA) and the right Achilles tendon (RA) (P < 0.05). CONCLUSION There is a solid possibility acne is a systemic disease triggering other co-morbidities beyond skin which needs to be fully elucidated by further research evidence.

Abstract
Autoinflammatory syndromes are a steadily growing group of inflammatory diseases caused by abnormal regulations of the innate immune system. The clinical presentation is multifaceted, but recurrent fever, skin involvement, joint inflammation and other systemic symptoms of inflammation are characteristic. In contrast to classic autoimmune diseases, autoantibodies or specific T cells are not involved in the pathogenesis. In fact, innate immunity plays the most important role in autoinflammation. While activation of the innate immune system is usually self-limiting in healthy individuals, mutations and dysregulation can lead to chronic and excessive activation of innate immune responses and to the development of autoinflammatory diseases.

Abstract
Pathogenic variants in the PSTPIP1 gene cause pyogenic sterile arthritis, pyoderma gangrenosum, and acne (PAPA) syndrome. They were also identified in a broad spectrum of phenotypes. As their interpretation is sometimes challenging, we discuss the genotype-phenotype association in PSTPIP1-associated autoinflammatory diseases (PAIDs) in light of a recent consensus classification of variant pathogenicity. Only 7 of 39 (18%) of the PSTPIP1 variants found in all reported cases and our national reference center (161 patients [114 probands]) were pathogenic. They were clearly associated with PAPA and PSTPIP1-associated myeloid-related proteinemia inflammatory syndrome (PAMI), reflecting a variable clinical expression of PAIDs.

Abstract
In the last decade, new scientific findings significantly improved our understanding of the molecular pathogenesis of autoinflammation and have resulted in the identification and definition of several pyoderma gangrenosum-associated autoinflammatory syndromes (PGAAIS) as new and distinct clinical entities. These different clinical entities include PAPA (pyogenic arthritis, pyoderma gangrenosum and acne conglobata), PASH (pyoderma gangrenosum, acne and suppurative hidradenitis), PAPASH (pyoderma gangrenosum, acne, suppurative hidradenitis and pyogenic arthritis), PsAPASH (pyoderma gangrenosum, acne, suppurative hidradenitis and psoriatic arthritis), PASS (pyoderma gangrenosum, acne conglobata, suppurative hidradenitis, and axial spondyloarthritis) and PAC (pyoderma gangrenosum, acne and ulcerative colitis), which can be distinguished by their clinical presentation and the presence or absence of mutations in several genes, such as the genes encoding proline-serine-threonine phosphatase-interacting protein 1 (PSTPIP1), nicastrin (NCSTN), Mediterranean fever (MEFV) and nucleotide-binding oligomerization domain-containing protein (NOD). In this systematic review, we summarize the present knowledge of this rapidly developing hot topic and provide a guide to enable the easy diagnosis of these syndromes in everyday clinical practice. Moreover, we report a rare case of PASS syndrome demonstrating successful treatment with adalimumab and another case of a previously unreported combination of symptoms, including psoriatic arthritis, pyoderma gangrenosum, suppurative hidradenitis and Crohn’s disease (newly coined PsAPSC), as examples. Because of the identification of similar genetic and pathogenic mechanisms of PGAAIS, we think the wide variety of seemingly different syndromes may represent distinct phenotypes of one disease. New scientific findings improved the understanding of the molecular pathogenesis of autoinflammation. There is a similar genetic background and clinical findings of PGAAIS. Because of the similar genetic and pathogenic mechanisms of PGAAIS may represent distinct phenotypes of one disease. We present a 4-sep guide to enable the easy diagnosis of theses disease in clinical practice.

Abstract
Pyoderma gangrenosum (PG) is a rare neutrophilic dermatosis that presents with rapidly developing, painful skin ulcers hallmarked by undermined borders and peripheral erythema. Epidemiological studies indicate that the average age of PG onset is in the mid-40s, with an incidence of a few cases per million person-years. PG is often associated with a variety of other immune-mediated diseases, most commonly inflammatory bowel disease and rheumatoid arthritis. The cause of PG is not well understood, but PG is generally considered an autoinflammatory disorder. Studies have focused on the role of T cells, especially at the wound margin; these cells may support the destructive autoinflammatory response by the innate immune system. PG is difficult to diagnose as several differential diagnoses are possible; in addition to clinical examination, laboratory tests of biopsied wound tissue are required for an accurate diagnosis, and new validated diagnostic criteria will facilitate the process. Treatment of PG typically starts with fast-acting immunosuppressive drugs (corticosteroids and/or cyclosporine) to reduce inflammation followed by the addition of more slowly acting immunosuppressive drugs with superior adverse event profiles, including biologics (in particular, anti-tumour necrosis factor (TNF) agents). Appropriate wound care is also essential. Future research should focus on PG-specific outcome measures and PG quality-of-life studies.

Abstract
Disruption of innate immunity leading to systemic inflammation and multi-organ dysfunction is the basilar footprint of autoinflammatory disorders (AIDs), ranging from rare hereditary monogenic diseases to a large number of common chronic inflammatory conditions in which there is a simultaneous participation of multiple genetic components and environmental factors, sometimes combined with autoimmune phenomena and immunodeficiency. Whatever their molecular mechanism, hereditary AIDs are caused by mutations in regulatory molecules or sensors proteins leading to dysregulated production of proinflammatory cytokines or cytokine-inducing transcription factors, fever, elevation of acute phase reactants, and a portfolio of manifold inflammatory signs which might occur in a stereotyped manner, mostly with overactivity or misactivation of different inflammasomes. Symptoms might overlap in the pediatric patient, obscuring the final diagnosis of AIDs and delaying the most appropriate treatment. Actually, the fast-paced evolution of scientific knowledge has led to recognize or reclassify an overgrowing number of multifactorial diseases, which share the basic pathogenetic mechanisms with AIDs. The wide framework of classic hereditary periodic fevers, AIDs with prominent skin involvement, disorders of the ubiquitin-proteasome system, defects of actin cytoskeleton dynamics, and also idiopathic nonhereditary febrile syndromes occurring in children is herein presented. Interleukin-1 dependence of these diseases or involvement of other predominating molecules is also discussed.

Abstract
Autoinflammatory diseases constitute a family of disorders defined by aberrant stimulation of inflammatory pathways without involving antigen-directed autoimmunity. They may be divided into monogenic and polygenic types. Monogenic autoinflammatory syndromes are those with identified genetic mutations, such as familial Mediterranean fever, tumor necrosis factor receptor-associated periodic fever syndrome (TRAPS), mevalonate kinase deficiency or hyperimmunoglobulin D syndrome, cryopyrin-associated periodic fever syndromes (CAPS), pyogenic arthritis pyoderma gangrenosum and acne (PAPA) syndrome, interleukin-10 and interleukin-10 receptor deficiencies, adenosine deaminase 2 deficiency and pediatric sarcoidosis. Those without an identified genetic mutation are known as polygenic and include systemic-onset juvenile idiopathic arthritis, idiopathic recurrent acute pericarditis, Behçet syndrome, chronic recurrent multifocal osteomyelitis and inflammatory bowel disease among others. Autoinflammatory disorders are defined by repeating episodes or persistent fever, rash, serositis, lymphadenopathy, arthritis and increased acute phase reactants, and thus may mimic infections clinically. Most monogenic autoinflammatory syndromes present in childhood. However, because of their infrequency, diverse and nonspecific presentation, and the relatively new genetic recognition, diagnosis is usually delayed. In this article, which is Part 1 of a two-part series, the authors update monogenic autoinflammatory diseases in children with special emphasis on imaging features that may help establish the correct diagnosis.

Abstract
Our knowledge of the role of cytokines in pathologic conditions has increased considerably with the emergence of molecular and genetic studies, particularly in the case of autoinflammatory monogenic diseases. Many rare disorders, considered orphan until recently, are directly related to abnormal gene regulation, and the treatment with biologic agents (biologics) targeting cytokine receptors, intracellular signaling or specific cytokines improve the symptoms of an increasing number of chronic inflammatory diseases. As it is currently impossible to systematically conduct genetic studies for all patients with autoinflammatory and autoimmune diseases, the evaluation of cytokines can be seen as a simple, less time consuming, and less expensive alternative. This approach could be especially useful when the diagnosis of syndromes of diseases of unknown etiology remains problematic. The evaluation of cytokines could also help avoid the current trial-and-error approach, which has the disadvantages of exposing patients to ineffective drugs with possible unnecessary side effects and permanent organ damages. In this review, we discuss the various possibilities, as well as the limitations of evaluating the cytokine profiles of patients suffering from autoinflammatory and autoimmune diseases, with methods such as direct detection of cytokines in the plasma/serum or following ex vivo stimulation of PBMCs leading to the production of their cytokine secretome. The patients' secretome, combined with biomarkers ranging from genetic and epigenetic analyses to immunologic biomarkers, may help not only the diagnosis but also guide the choice of biologics for more efficient and rapid treatments.

Abstract
Autoinflammatory diseases include disorders with a monogenic cause and also complex conditions associated to polygenic or multifactorial factors. An increased number of both monogenic and polygenic autoinflammatory conditions have been identified during the last years. Although skin manifestations are often predominant in monogenic autoinflammatory diseases, clinical and histopathological information regarding their dermatological involvement is still scarce. Monogenic autoinflammatory diseases with cutaneous expression can be classified based on the predominant lesion: (1) maculopapular rashes or inflammatory plaques; (2) urticarial rashes; (3) pustular, pyogenic or neutrophilic dermatosis-like rashes; (4) panniculitis or subcutaneous nodules; (5) vasculitis or vasculopathy; (6) hyperkeratotic lesions; (7) hyperpigmented lesions; (8) bullous lesions; and (9) aphthous lesions. By using this classification, this review intends to provide clinical and histopathological knowledge about cutaneous involvement in monogenic autoinflammatory diseases.

Abstract
Chronic recurrent multifocal osteomyelitis (CRMO) is one of the most severe form of chronic non-bacterial osteomyelitis (CNO), which could result in bone and related tissue damage. This autoinflammatory bone disorder (ABD) is very difficult for its clinical diagnosis because of no diagnostic criteria or biomarkers. CRMO in the jaw must be suspected in the differential diagnosis of chronic and recurrent bone pain in the jaw, and a bone biopsy should be considered in chronic and relapsing bone pain with swelling that is unresponsive to treatment. The early diagnosis of CRMO in the jaw will prevent unnecessary and prolonged antibiotic usage or unnecessary surgical intervention. The updated researches for the identification of genetic and molecular alterations in CNO/CRMO should be studied more for its correct pathophysiological causes and proper treatment guidelines. Although our trial consisted of reporting items from Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA), there are very few articles of randomized controlled trials. This article was summarized based on the author's diverse clinical experiences. This paper reviews the clinical presentation of CNO/CRMO with its own pathogenesis, epidemiology, recent research studies, and general medications. Treatment and monitoring of the jaw are essential for the clear diagnosis and management of CNO/CRMO patients in the field of dentistry and maxillofacial surgery.

Abstract
As key regulators of both innate and adaptive immunity, it is unsurprising that the activity of interleukin (IL)-1 cytokine family members is tightly controlled by decoy receptors, antagonists, and a variety of other mechanisms. Additionally, inflammasome-mediated proteolytic maturation is a prominent and distinguishing feature of two important members of this cytokine family, IL-1β and IL-18, because their full-length gene products are biologically inert. Although vital in antimicrobial host defense, deregulated inflammasome signaling is linked with a growing number of autoimmune and autoinflammatory diseases. Here, we focus on introducing the diverse inflammasome types and discussing their causal roles in periodic fever syndromes. Therapies targeting IL-1 or IL-18 show great efficacy in some of these autoinflammatory diseases, although further understanding of the molecular mechanisms leading to unregulated production of these key cytokines is required to benefit more patients.

Abstract
Pyogenic arthritis, pyoderma gangrenosum and acne (PAPA) syndrome is a rare autosomal-dominant autoinflammatory disease of incomplete penetrance and variable expression. PAPA syndrome is the result of a mutation in the proline serine threonine phosphatase-interacting protein 1 (PSTPIP1/CD2BP1) gene located on chromosome 15, which results in an abnormal overproduction of the pro-inflammatory cytokine interleukin-1β (IL-1). This syndrome clinically manifests as early onset of recurrent episodes of acute aseptic inflammation of the joints, generally occurring in the first two decades of life, followed by manifestation of characteristic skin lesions in the third decade, after an obvious decline in the joint symptoms. Although uncommon, the potential clinical implications of PAPA syndrome warrant an appropriate diagnosis in a timely fashion.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Advances in sequencing techniques and systematic cohort-analysis of patients with autoinflammatory phenotypes have enabled a burst in the recognition of new autoinflammatory diseases and contributed to the description of the mechanisms involved in autoinflammation. This review focuses on new genetic and mechanistic discoveries that have broadened the definition of autoinflammatory diseases in the context of the established landscape, providing new therapeutic opportunities and avenues for further discoveries. RECENT FINDINGS Mechanistic insights of inflammatory diseases open opportunities for new targeted therapies. Advances in high-throughput screening of small-molecule inhibitors accelerate the discovery of new and more specific therapeutic options. Recent evidence establishes IL-18 as a driver of macrophage activation, emerging as a new biomarker and therapeutic target. Finally, the identification of escape of nonsense-mediated decay as the genetic mechanism resulting in a monogenic immune-dysregulatory disease, unveils a possibility for future discoveries. SUMMARY Recent mechanistic findings in autoinflammatory diseases as well as the identification of specific biomarkers and discovery of new diseases, continue to pave the way for ever more specific targeted approaches. These therapies are not only applicable to monogenic autoinflammatory syndromes but also for other diseases in which the same pathways are dysregulated.

Abstract
Pyoderma gangrenosum (PG) is an uncommon inflammatory skin disorder characterized by neutrophil dysfunction. There are currently no FDA-approved drugs for the treatment of this disease, and treatment has typically relied on traditional immunosuppressive medications such as prednisone or cyclosporine. The efficacy of biologics in the treatment of other pro-inflammatory conditions such as psoriasis, rheumatoid arthritis, and inflammatory bowel disease is well-documented in the literature. Therefore, the use of biologic medications for the treatment of rarer inflammatory skin conditions, such as PG, is a compelling topic for investigation. Biologic and small-molecule therapies allow physicians to target specific pro-inflammatory mediators that underlie PG pathogenesis. This review provides an update on the use of biologic and small-molecule medications for the treatment of PG and summarizes the latest data on the clinical efficacy and pharmacology of these treatments.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Pyogenic arthritis, pyoderma gangrenosum and acne (PAPA) syndrome is characterised by flares of sterile arthritis with neutrophil infiltrate and the overproduction of interleukin (IL)-1β. The purpose of this study was to elucidate the potential role of neutrophil subsets and neutrophil extracellular traps (NET) in the pathogenesis of PAPA. METHODS Neutrophils and low-density granulocytes (LDG) were quantified by flow cytometry. Circulating NETs were measured by ELISA and PAPA serum was tested for the ability to degrade NETs. The capacity of NETs from PAPA neutrophils to activate macrophages was assessed. Skin biopsies were analysed for NETs and neutrophil gene signatures. RESULTS Circulating LDGs are elevated in PAPA subjects. PAPA neutrophils and LDGs display enhanced NET formation compared with control neutrophils. PAPA sera exhibit impaired NET degradation and this is corrected with exogenous DNase1. Recombinant human IL-1β induces NET formation in PAPA neutrophils but not healthy control neutrophils. NET formation in healthy control neutrophils is induced by PAPA serum and this effect is inhibited by the IL-1 receptor antagonist, anakinra. NETs from PAPA neutrophils and LDGs stimulate IL-6 release in healthy control macrophages. NETs are detected in skin biopsies of patients with PAPA syndrome in association with increased tissue IL-1β, IL-8 and IL-17. Furthermore, LDG gene signatures are detected in PAPA skin. CONCLUSIONS PAPA syndrome is characterised by an imbalance of NET formation and degradation that may enhance the half-life of these structures in vivo, promoting inflammation. Anakinra ameliorates NET formation in PAPA and this finding supports a role for IL-1 signalling in exacerbated neutrophil responses in this disease. The study also highlights other inflammatory pathways potentially pathogenic in PAPA, including IL-17 and IL-6, and these results may help guide new therapeutic approaches in this severe and often treatment-refractory condition.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Proline-serine-threonine phosphatase interacting protein 1 (PSTPIP1) is a cytosolic adaptor protein involved with T-cell activation, differentiation, and migration. On cognate T-cell contact, PSTPIP1 is recruited to surface-expressed CD2, where it regulates F-actin remodeling. An immune synapse (IS) is thereby rapidly formed, consisting of T-cell receptor clusters surrounded by a ring of adhesion molecules, including CD2. OBJECTIVE From genetic screening of patients with primary immunodeficiencies, we identified 2 mutations in PSTPIP1, R228C and T274M, which we further characterized in the primary patients' T cells. METHODS F-actin dynamics were assessed in primary T cells from the patients and control subjects by using fluorescence-activated cell sorting. HEK293T and Jurkat cells were transfected with R228C, T274M, and wild-type PSTPIP1 to visualize F-actin in IS formation. CD2-PSTPIP1 association was quantified through immunoprecipitation assays. RESULTS The patients presented with immunodeficiency without signs of autoinflammation. The patient with the R228C mutation had expansion of mostly naive phenotype T cells and few memory T cells; the patient with the T274M mutation had 75% reduction in CD4 T cells that were predominantly of the memory subset. We observed F-actin polymerization defects in T cells from both patients with PSTPIP1, most notably the patient with the T274M mutation. Capping of CD2-containing membrane microdomains was disrupted. Analysis of IS formation using Jurkat T-cell transfectants revealed a reduction in F-actin accumulation at the IS, again especially in cells from the patient with the T274M PSTPIP1 mutation. T cells from the patient with the T274M mutation migrated spontaneously at increased speed, as assessed in a 3-dimensional collagen matrix, whereas T-cell receptor cross-linking induced a significantly diminished calcium flux. CONCLUSIONS We propose that PSTPIP1 T-cell differentiation defects are caused by defective control of F-actin polymerization. A preactivated polymerized F-actin status, as seen in T cells from patients with the PSTPIP1 T274M mutation, appears particularly damaging. PSTPIP1 controls IS formation and cell adhesion through its function as an orchestrator of the F-actin cytoskeleton.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Chronic Non-Bacterial Osteomyelitis (CNO) is an inflammatory disorder that primarily affects children. Although underestimated, its incidence is rare. For these reasons, no diagnostic and no therapeutic guidelines exist. The manuscript wants to give some suggestions on how to deal with these patients in the every-day clinical practice. MAIN BODY CNO is characterized by insidious onset of bone pain with local swelling. Systemic symptoms such as fever, skin involvement and arthritis may be sometimes present. Radiological findings are suggestive for osteomyelitis, in particular if multiple sites are involved. CNO predominantly affects metaphyses of long bones, but clavicle and mandible, even if rare localizations of the disease, are very consistent with CNO diagnosis. CNO pathogenesis is still unknown, but recent findings highlighted the crucial role of cytokines such as IL-1β and IL-10 in disease pathogenesis. Moreover, the presence of non-bacterial osteomyelitis among autoinflammatory syndromes suggests that CNO could be considered an autoinflammatory disease itself. Differential diagnosis includes infections, malignancies, benign bone tumors, metabolic disorders and other autoinflammatory disorders. Radiologic findings, either with Magnetic Resonance or with Computer Scan, may be very suggestive. For this reason in patients in good clinical conditions, with multifocal localization and very consistent radiological findings bone biopsy could be avoided. Non-Steroidal Anti-Inflammatory Drugs are the first-choice treatment. Corticosteroids, methotrexate, bisphosphonates, TNFα-inhibitors and IL-1 blockers have also been used with some benefit; but the choice of the second line treatment depends on bone lesions localizations, presence of systemic features and patients' clinical conditions. CONCLUSION CNO may be difficult to identify and no consensus exist on diagnosis and treatment. Multifocal bone lesions with characteristic radiological findings are very suggestive of CNO. No data exist on best treatment option after Non-Steroidal Anti-Inflammatory Drugs failure.

Abstract
Chronic non-bacterial osteomyelitis (CNO) belongs to the growing spectrum of autoinflammatory diseases and primarily affects the skeletal system. Peak onset ranges between 7 and 12 years of age. The clinical spectrum of CNO covers sometimes asymptomatic inflammation of single bones at the one end and chronically active or recurrent multifocal osteitis at the other.Despite the intense scientific efforts, the exact molecular mechanisms of CNO remain unknown. Recent data suggest CNO as a genetically complex disorder with dysregulated TLR4/MAPK/inflammasome signaling cascades resulting in an imbalance between pro- and anti-inflammatory cytokine expression, leading to osteoclast activation and osteolytic lesions.In this manuscript, the current understanding of molecular patho-mechanisms in CNO will be discussed.

Abstract
Despite the widespread use of glucocorticoids (GCs), their anti-inflammatory effects are not understood mechanistically. Numerous investigations have examined the effects of glucocorticoid receptor (GR) activation prior to inflammatory challenges. However, clinical situations are emulated by a GC intervention initiated in the midst of rampant inflammatory responses. To characterize the effects of a late GC treatment, we profiled macrophage transcriptional and chromatinscapes with Dexamethasone (Dex) treatment before or after stimulation by lipopolysaccharide (LPS). The late activation of GR had a similar gene-expression profile as from GR pre-activation, while ameliorating the disruption of metabolic genes. Chromatin occupancy of GR was not predictive of Dex-regulated gene expression, contradicting the "trans-repression by tethering" model. Rather, GR activation resulted in genome-wide blockade of NF-κB interaction with chromatin and directly induced inhibitors of NF-κB and AP-1. Our investigation using GC treatments with clinically relevant timing highlights mechanisms underlying GR actions for modulating the "inflamed epigenome."
