25
T/F Arthritis mutilans is common in PsJIA
F
26
Younger vs older children with PsJIA: Tendency to sacroiliitis
Older
27
Younger vs older children with PsJIA: Elevated frequency of HLA B27 antigen
Older

AS vs PsJIA: Tendency for asymmetrical joint involvement
PsJIA
30
AS vs PsJIA: Tendency to progress to spinal ankylosis
AS
31
Typical sites of symptomatic enthesitis
1) Insertion of Achilles tendon into calcaneus 2) Insertions of the plantar fascia
32
Suspected enthesitis can be confirmed by
UTZ or MRI
33
MC digit affected by dactylitis in patients with PsJIA
2nd toe and index finger
34
Form of psoriasis present in a large majority of patients with PsJIA
Classic vulgaris
35
T/F Psoriasis in children tends to be subtle
T
36
A substantial difference between children with PsJIA and psoriasis without arthritis
Prevalence of nail changes in PsJIA
37
Psoriatic changes in nails surface
Pits, onycholysis, horizontal ridging, discoloration
38
Acute anterior uveitis is associated with the presence of what antigen
HLA-B27
39
T/F ESR and CRP in PsJIA are frequently normal
T
40
T/F RF is typically absent in PsJIA
T
41
The basic treatment algorithm for PsJIA is similar to that employed in
Other subtypes of JIA: 1) NSAIDs initially but do not induce remission and inappropriate as extended monotherapy 2) Glucocorticoid injection for individual large joinrs 3) DMARDs (sulfasalazine, MTX) for multiple joint involvement 4) TNFi when there is inadequate response to the above
42
Secukinumab
Anti-IL17
43
Ustekinumab
Anti-IL-12/23
44
Tofacitinib
Jak inhibitor
45
Apremilast
PDE 4 inhibitor
46
T/F No particular TNFi has been shown to be superior to another in PsJIA
T
47
T/F PsJIA is thought to be less responsive to systemic or intraarticular corticosteroids than other types of arthritis
T
48
Substantial doses of corticosteroids are avoided when possible in PsJIA because
It can provoke a flare of cutaneous psoriasis when tapered
49
Antimalarials are avoided in PsJIA because
Can worsen cutaneous psoriasis
