Abstract
Advances in knowledge of the microbiome and its relationship with the immune system have led to a better understanding of the pathogenesis of chronic inflammatory rheumatic diseases (CIRD). Indeed, the microbiome dysbiosis now occupies a particular place with implications for the determinism and clinical expression of CIRD, as well as the therapeutic response of affected patients. Several approaches exist to limit the impact of the microbiome during CIRD. This review aimed to present current strategies to prevent or reverse microbiome dysbiosis based on existing knowledge, in order to provide practical information to healthcare professionals treating patients suffering from CIRD.

Abstract
Reactive arthritis is included in the spectrum of seronegative spondyloarthritides, occurring secondary to triggers of genitourinary and gastrointestinal tract infections. We describe two cases of sexually acquired reactive arthritis secondary to genital infection by Chlamydia trachomatis, diagnosed by in-house polymerase chain reaction performed on the first void urine. Both patients were managed with a combined approach of short course antibiotics, immunosuppressive agents, biologicals and surgical intervention.

Abstract
Die Untersuchung synovialer Veränderungen kann zur Diagnose von Gelenkerkrankungen und von systemischen Erkrankungen beitragen. Die Domäne der histopathologischen Diagnostik stellt die Abgrenzung tumoröser von entzündlichen Läsionen dar. Daneben können Kristallarthropathien und bestimmte Stoffwechselerkrankungen sicher diagnostiziert werden. Unter dem histologischen Bild einer granulomatösen Synovialitis können neben einer mykobakteriellen Infektion Sarkoidosen und Fremdkörperreaktionen sowie selten genetische Erkrankungen beobachtet werden. Amyloidosen können auch in der Tunica synovialis subtypisiert werden. Molekulare Methoden erlauben die schnelle und sichere Diagnostik septischer Arthritiden und eine Keimtypisierung. Mittels dieser Methoden können auch reaktive Arthritiden klassifiziert werden, da auch hier häufig DNA oder RNA bestimmter Keime in Gewebe oder Gelenkflüssigkeit nachgewiesen werden kann. Die Diagnose der rheumatoiden Arthritis basiert auf den American College of Rheumatology(ACR)-Kriterien. Molekulare Methoden, wie die Mikro-RNA-Technologie oder proteomische Methoden können die Diagnose unterstützen.

Abstract
Purpose of Review The aim of this paper is to provide an overview about reactive arthritis, with an update regarding pathophysiology and therapeutic approach of the disease, outlining the clinical features and diagnostic approach, based on recent literature review. Recent Findings Reactive arthritis is considered to be part of the spectrum of the spondyloarthritis. Its epidemiology is changing worldwide due to several reasons, among them are as follows: different diagnosis approach and clinical presentations, different grades of infection, microbiome changes, etc. The understanding of pathophysiological models is challenging, but recent studies contribute to elucidate the major factors involved in the development of the disease. The management of ReA depends on the triggering agent and the phase of disease, whether it is acute or chronic. Summary The association between the microbiome changes and spondyloarthropathies (ReA) is becoming increasingly evident. The results regarding the biologic treatment on refectory ReA are promising.
