Core Tip

Core Tip: In this study, we perform a comparative analysis of clinical and laboratory data from patients with TNFRSF1A variants and from patients with systemic juvenile idiopathic arthritis without variants in autoinflammation-associated genes, as well as an analysis of drug therapy. As a result of the study, the phenotypic features of patients with tumor necrosis factor receptor-associated periodic syndrome were identified, allowing them to suspect the disease before receiving genetic test results and to identify the most effective drugs for their treatment.
