Clinical features of dermatomyositis associated with anti-MDA5 antibodies by age
Anti-melanoma differentiation-associated gene 5 (MDA5) autoantibody-positive and age at onset ≥60 years are poor prognosis factors in polymyositis (PM) and dermatomyositis (DM) associated with interstitial lung disease (ILD) among Japanese patients. However, the influence of age on the clinical feat...

Zusammenfassung: | Anti-melanoma differentiation-associated gene 5 (MDA5) autoantibody-positive and age at onset ≥60 years are poor prognosis factors in polymyositis (PM) and dermatomyositis (DM) associated with interstitial lung disease (ILD) among Japanese patients. However, the influence of age on the clinical features of anti-MDA5 autoantibody-positive patients with DM remains unclear.
We retrospectively examined 40 patients with DM and anti-MDA5 autoantibodies according to age. We compared patients aged |
