    • Inflammatory Biomarkers Can Differentiate Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia with Arthropathy from Juvenile Idiopathic Arthritis Better Than Standard Blood Tests 

      Brix, Ninna; Glerup, Mia; Foell, Dirk; Kessel, Christoph; Wittkowski, Helmut; Berntson, Lillemor; Fasth, Anders; Nielsen, Susan; Nordal, Ellen Berit; Rygg, Marite; Hasle, Henrik; Herlin, Troels (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2023-04-04)
      Objective - To evaluate the predictive value of biomarkers of inflammation like phagocyte-related S100 proteins and a panel of inflammatory cytokines in order to differentiate the child with acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) from juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA).<p> <p>Study design - In this cross-sectional study, we measured S100A9, S100A12, and 14 cytokines in serum from children with ALL ...

    • M-ficolin: a valuable biomarker to identify leukaemia from juvenile idiopathic arthritis 

      Brix, Ninna; Glerup, Mia; Thiel, Steffen; Mistegaard, Clara Elbæk; Skals, Regitze Gyldenholm; Berntson, Lillemor; Fasth, Anders; Nielsen, Susan Mary; Nordal, Ellen Berit; Rygg, Marite; Hasle, Henrik; Albertsen, Birgitte Klug; Herlin, Troels (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2021-10-22)
      Objective: Distinction on clinical grounds between acute lymphoblastic leukaemia presenting with arthropathy (ALLarthropathy) and juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA) is difficult, as the clinical and paraclinical signs of leukaemia may be vague. The primary aim was to examine the use of lectin complement pathway proteins as markers to differentiate ALLarthropathy from JIA. The secondary aims were ...

    • A novel serum calprotectin (MRP8/14) particle-enhanced immuno-turbidimetric assay (sCAL turbo) helps to differentiate systemic juvenile idiopathic arthritis from other diseases in routine clinical laboratory settings 

      Foell, Dirk; Saers, Melanie; Park, Carolin; Brix, Ninna; Glerup, Mia; Kessel, Christoph; Wittkowski, Helmut; Hinze, Claas; Berntson, Lillemor; Fasth, Anders; Myrup, Charlotte; Nordal, Ellen Berit; Rygg, Marite; Hasle, Henrik; Albertsen, Birgitte Klug; Herlin, Troels; Holzinger, Dirk; Niederberger, Christian; Schlüter, Bernhard (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2023-10-25)
      Background Differential diagnosis in children with signs of unprovoked inflammation can be challenging. In particular, differentiating systemic juvenile idiopathic arthritis (SJIA) from other diagnoses is difficult. We have recently validated the complex of myeloid-related proteins 8/14 (MRP8/14, also known as S100A8/A9 complex or serum calprotectin) as a helpful biomarker supporting the diagnosis ...
