Background: Baricitinib has previously been shown to improve clinical response in patients with juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA) in the JUVE-BASIS trial. In this post-hoc analysis we aimed to identify whether pharmacodynamic changes in serum biomarkers in response to baricitinib treatment could help reaffirm the clinical utility of baricitinib in patients with JIA.

Methods: JUVE-BASIS was a randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled, withdrawal, efficacy, safety, phase 3 trial, done in 75 centres in 20 countries.

Objective: To describe the efficacy and safety of tofacitinib for pediatric Still's disease, also referred to as systemic-onset juvenile idiopathic arthritis (sJIA). Traditional non-biological drugs and drugs targeting the interleukin-1 and interleukin-6 pathways benefit some patients, but others show inadequate responses.

Methods: We retrospectively analyzed ten patients with pediatric Still's disease who were treated with tofacitinib and had at least one follow-up visit.

Introduction: Vitamin D plays a crucial role in modulating the immune system. Numerous studies have elucidated the association between low serum levels of vitamin D and autoimmune diseases. Vitamin D deficiency has been implicated in systemic lupus erythematosus, rheumatoid arthritis (RA), Hashimoto's thyroiditis, juvenile dermatomyositis, inflammatory bowel disease, among others.
