Ultrasound of nerves of the lower extremities
Z Rheumatol. 2023 Nov 29. doi: 10.1007/s00393-023-01458-8. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTThe ability to visualize the nerves of the lower extremities differs from that of the upper extremities in sonography because the soft tissue cover is significantly larger in some cases. Landmarks are also defined for the lower extremities, which enable precise visualization of the nerves. Nerves and muscles are to be understood as a functional unit. In addition to the clarification of nerve compression syndromes, polyneuropathies and nerve tumors, sonography is also used to visualize muscle atrophy.PMID:38019334 | DOI:10.1007/s00393-0...

Relapsing polychondritis
Z Rheumatol. 2023 Nov 27. doi: 10.1007/s00393-023-01451-1. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTRelapsing polychondritis (RP) is a rare multisystemic disease predominantly involving the extracellular matrix. Typical manifestations are chondritis of the ears, nose and trachea as well as an asymmetrical oligoarthritis or polyarthritis of small and also larger joints. Various other involvements have also been described. The treatment of RP is individually dependent on a variety of factors, e.g., organ manifestations. Glucocorticoids, immunosuppressants and targeted treatment are implemented. In the case of seronegative rheumatoid ar...

Anxiety and depression among patients with familial Mediterranean fever
CONCLUSION: The patients with FMF had mild depression and moderate anxiety scores. A higher level of education and medication adherence were associated with lower levels of anxiety. Likewise, the patients with genotypes associated with severe disease courses had lower levels of anxiety. We suggest that physicians should be more attentive to patients with a milder disease course and ensure that these patients are provided with sufficient treatment and knowledge about their disease.PMID:37957401 | DOI:10.1007/s00393-023-01445-z (Source: Zeitschrift fur Rheumatologie)
