Hitherto assembled results with the assessment of HLA antigens in rheumatic diseases and their impact.

The authors characterize the position which developed in the sphere of rheumatic diseases, in particular inflammatory ones, after in these diseases the association with HLA antigens was revealed; most important is still the association of HLA B 27 with ankylosing spondylitis (Bekhterev's disease) which stimulated a new line of research and helped to detect the projection of antigen into all so-called rheumatic diseases which have in addition to affected peripheral joints inflammatory change of the SI synchrondrosis and segmentary signs of ankylosing spondylitis. The authors examined patients with psoriatic arthropathy and pure dermatological psoriasis but found only association with B 17 and B 13. In ankylosing hyperotosis (Forestier) they prove, based on the findings in 36 patients that in controversial cases the absence of B 27 may be important. They report also on their finding of an enhanced association of A 10 and B 14 in a group of 48 patients with seropositive rheumatoid arthritis.

Arthritis of the sacro-iliac joints in patients with psoriasis.

In a series of 58 patients with psoriasis and skin involvement in the absence of any symptoms of an associated joint or bone disease, 49 individuals had definite signs of an arthritis of the sacro-iliac joints, while only slight changes were present in the others. The authors reached the conclusions that arthritis of the sacro-iliac joints occurs in all patients with psoriasis, without any exceptions; and thus not only in those who have simultaneous symptoms of bone or joint disease, which are well known in psoriasis, but equally in those in whom the clinical symptoms are missing.
