Low-dose prednisone therapy.
Low doses of corticosteroids are beneficial in the management of certain patients with rheumatoid arthritis, and provide definitive symptomatic relief for patients with polymyalgia rheumatica. They are probably of similar value in the treatment of older adults with acute seronegative polyarthritis, a condition that may bear close resemblance to polymyalgia rheumatica.

Esophageal motor dysfunction in systemic lupus erythematosus. Two cases with unusual features.
Two patients with systemic lupus erythematosus had intermittent episodes of dysphagia associated with severe nonpleuritic chest pain. Esophageal manometry disclosed abnormalities characteristic of diffuse esophageal spasm. The findings suggest that diffuse spasm should be considered in the differential diagnosis of unexplained chest pain and dysphagia in patients with lupus.
