Comparative study of 46 AOSD, 9 MAS & 31 adult HLH pts, shows that serum IL-18 was signif higher in AOSD than HLH (closely correlates w/ ferritin, sIL-2R). IL-18, sIL-2R, ‘arthralgia or arthritis’ independently distinguished AOSD from HLH https://t.co/ZW6e78nEkh

Catastrophic Still's dz occurs early; compares 20 AOSD w/ organ failure vs 40 AOSD without. CAT-AOSD had shorter Dz duration, earlier Rx need; risks: younger; splenomegaly, liver, cardiac,lung involvement; ferritin level, no arthralgia https://t.co/8WIMd0JxZr
