OBJECTIVES: To validate the correlation between laboratory markers reflecting disease activity of macrophage activation syndrome (MAS) and serum cytokine levels and identify the valuable laboratory markers that change over time for a prompt MAS diagnosis METHODS: Serum cytokine levels were determined by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay and compared with laboratory markers reflecting MAS disease activity.The changes in values were evaluated from the acute phase of systemic juvenile idiopathic arthritis (s-JIA) to MAS diagnosis RESULTS: CXCL9 was significantly correlated with aspartate aminotransferase (AST), lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), D dimer, and urine β2 microglobulin levels. sTNF-RII was significantly correlated with platelet counts, AST, LDH, D dimer, and ferritin levels. Significant changes in platelet count, LDH, and D dimer levels were observed. Decreased platelet counts were the most valuable indicator for MAS diagnosis CONCLUSION: Monitoring the laboratory markers that change over time, particularly decreased platelet counts, was valuable for the prompt MAS diagnosis in s-JIA |
