Abstract: INTRODUCTION Interstitial lung disease (ILD) is the leading cause of mortality in idiopathic inflammatory myopathies or myositis. Clinical characteristics, including the course of ILD, rate of progression, radiological and pathohistological morphologies, extent and distribution of… read more here.

DOI: 10.4103/ijpm.ijpm_1082_21
Abstract: Diagnosis of inflammatory myositis has been made easier with the availability of commercial assays for myositis-specific and myositis-associated antibodies. Clinico-serological association studies have permitted a better definition of clinical subsets. Myositis-specific auto-antibodies are highly specific… read more here.
