Abstract
The discovery, over the last forty years or so, of specific myositis auto-antibodies (easily dosed in routine nowadays) and the fine clinically and pathologically phenotypic descriptions of affected patients have made it possible to review the classification of inflammatory myopathies. The arrival of “omic” techniques has also led to the discovery of different pathophysiological mechanisms among these different subgroups of myositis. Naturally, therapeutic approaches specifically targeting the representative abnormal pathways of each subgroup are being evaluated. This modern approach to myositis, which is clinical, pathophysiological, and therapeutic in the making, is presented in this review article.
期刊介绍:
The first issue of the Revue Neurologique, featuring an original article by Jean-Martin Charcot, was published on February 28th, 1893. Six years later, the French Society of Neurology (SFN) adopted this journal as its official publication in the year of its foundation, 1899.
The Revue Neurologique was published throughout the 20th century without interruption and is indexed in all international databases (including Current Contents, Pubmed, Scopus). Ten annual issues provide original peer-reviewed clinical and research articles, and review articles giving up-to-date insights in all areas of neurology. The Revue Neurologique also publishes guidelines and recommendations.
The Revue Neurologique publishes original articles, brief reports, general reviews, editorials, and letters to the editor as well as correspondence concerning articles previously published in the journal in the correspondence column.
