    Notizen: Summary The clinical efficacy and adverse effects of nandrolone decanoate (Deca-Durabolin) were investigated in a double-blind placebo-controlled multicentre study in female patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). The patients received 100 mg Deca-Durabolin or placebo once every 2 weeks for 3 months. At the end of the study, 36 patients (18 on placebo and 18 on Deca-Durabolin) were evaluated. Beneficial effects were observed on arthralgia, and/or arthritis and minor vasculitis. Possible beneficial effects were seen on polymyalgia, active SLE rash, oral and/or nasal ulcerations and pleural and pericardial pain in the Deca-Durabolin-treated patients. The overall clinical assessment score showed that Deca-Durabolin would influence the disease course by lowering significantly the disease activity score. However, this treatment is still hampered by adverse reactions such as voice alterations and hirsutism. Therefore, the development of androgen-derived steroids free from androgenic activity should be encouraged, since these compounds may contribute to a new therapeutic modality in female SLE patients.

    Notizen: Summary Adult-onset Still's disease is characterized by high spiking fever, evanescent maculopapular rash and arthritis. Several recent reports have associated its development with a variety of infectious agents. We describe the case of a 25-year old woman presenting high fever, maculopapular rash and seronegative polyarthritis associated with lymphoadenopathy, splenomegaly and neutrophil leucocytosis together with acute acquired toxoplasmosis. Other causes of systemic illness were excluded by appropriate laboratory, radiological and histological investigations. Clinical, radiological and laboratory findings as well as possible etiopathogenetic correlations among both pathological conditions are discussed. Toxoplasma gondii should be considered as a further possible triggering agent associated with the development of adult-onset Still's disease.

    Notizen: Summary The presence of nail changes was investigated in 102 patients with nodal osteoarthritis of the hand. Nail lesions were seen in 14/102 patients (13.7%), a prevalence higher than that observed in 96 controls (4/96, 4.2%; chi square 4.37, p=0.036). An increased risk of nail changes was associated with osteoarthritis of the hand (odds ratio=3.7, 95% CI 1.13 to 11.8). Longitudinal lines were the most frequent nail alteration and accounted for 10/14 of the observed lesions. Nail involvement was associated with long-lasting symptoms related to osteoarthritis and high serum iron concentration. This complication of osteoarthritis is not as rare as might appear from the literature, and its pathogenesis remains to be investigated.

    Notizen: Summary Plasma from 38 patients suffering from one of the five broad clinical subgroups of Psoriatic Arthritis (PA) were studied for soluble plasma Fibronectin (pFn). The mean total concentration of pFn was 453.03μg/ml ± 142.83 SD, with a significant statistical difference (p〈0.01) versus a healthy control group matched with respect to sex and age. In order to evaluate the biological role that pFn might play in this pathological condition, observed concentrations were correlated with the degree and duration of the psoriasis and arthritis. In addition, pFn was correlated to some biohumoral parameters that are modified during inflammatory processes (ESR, CRP, sCu, sFe, Hb) and to uric acid levels. Tissue typing (HLA) was done where possible. From our observations, we suggest that pFn most likely is not an acute phase protein and rather than having specificity for a particular disease, might, in widespread and severe cases be,a general and useful marker of the connective-tissue organizing and repairing response, following its injury.

    Thema: Medizin
    Notizen: Summary Two cases of nail involvement associated with primary interphalangeal osteoarthritis of the hand, including leukonychia and longitudinal nail ridge, are reported. Osteoarthritic changes of the distal interphalangeal joints may cause nail lesions by exerting direct pressure on the nail matrix or by interfering with local blood flow. Moreover, inflammation of the Heberden's nodes is often present and seems to participate in the development of nail alteration. In our patients, leukonychia disappeared after local steroidal anti-inflammatory treatment of the osteoarthritic node and longitudinal nail ridge disappeared after treatment with nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory agents.

    Beschreibung / Inhaltsverzeichnis: Zusammenfassung Die Wirksamkeit verschiedener Therapieregime für die Behandlung der Lyme-Arthritis wird in einer Übersicht dargestellt. Als erster Behandlungsmodus für die Lyme-Arthritis wurde intramuskulär appliziertes Benzathinpenicillin in einer Dosierung von 2,4 Mio IE wöchentlich für drei Wochen eingesetzt. Die Erfolgrate lag bei 35%. Mit Penicillin G in einer Dosierung von 20 Mio IE i.v. täglich für 10 Tage wurden 55% der Patienten geheilt. Ceftriaxon i.v. verbesserte die Ansprechrate im Vergleich zu Penicillin auf 94%. Neuere Berichte stellen allerdings diese Ergebnisse in Frage. Vergleichbar gute Ergebnisse wurden mit oralem Doxycyclin und Amoxicillin in Kombination mit Probenecid beschrieben, doch trat nach Behandlung mit Amoxicillin häufiger eine Neuroborreliose auf. Einzelfallberichte weisen auf die Wirkung einer Langzeitbehandlung mit Benzathinpenicillin bei chronischer Lyme-Arthritis hin. Möglicherweise läßt sich durch Langzeitbehandlung mit Antibiotika wie beim Reiter-Syndrom auch eine Ausrottung vonBorrelia burgdorferi aus seinen Schlupfwinkeln erreichen. Medikamente, die den Krankheitsverlauf beeinflussen wie Hydroxychloroquin oder Sulphazalasin, das häufig zur Behandlung von reaktiven Arthritiden nach Darminfektionen eingesetzt wird, sind möglicherweise bei antibiotikaresistenter Lyme-Arthritis von Wert, doch liegen bisher keine Studien vor. Die intraartikuläre Injektion von Kortikosteroiden wird nach wie vor kontrovers diskutiert. Die Antibiotikatherapie ist der Eckstein der Behandlung der Lyme-Arthritis. Weitergehende Maßnahmen sollten bei Patienten mit antibiotikaresistenter Lyme-Arthritis geprüft werden.
    Notizen: Summary The efficacy of different therapeutic regimens for Lyme arthritis is reviewed. The first treatment for Lyme arthritis, intramuscular benzathine penicillin 2.4 million units weekly for 3 weeks, had a success rate of 35%. Another study employed intravenous penicillin G at a dosage of 20 million units daily for 10 days, which cured 55% of patients. Intravenous ceftriaxone has been shown to be superior to penicillin with a response rate of 94%. However, these results have been challenged in recent reports. Oral doxycycline or amoxicillin in association with probenecid seems to work equally well although neuroborreliosis was more frequent following treatment with amoxicillin. An anecdotal report indicates the usefulness of long-term benzathine penicillin for chronic Lyme arthritis. Long-term antibiotic therapy, which is recommended also for Reiter's syndrome, may be useful for eradicating the sanctuaries ofBorrelia burgdorferi. Disease-modifying drugs such as hydroxychloroquine or sulphasalazine, a drug which is commonly used in reactive arthritis following enteric infections, may be of value in Lyme arthritis resistant to antibiotics but have not been tested to date. The role of intraarticular injections of steroids or synovectomy is still controversial. Antibiotic treatment is the cornerstone of Lyme arthritis treatment. Additional interventions should be studied for patients with Lyme arthritis resistant to antibiotics.
