OBJECTIVE: To develop a Childhood Lupus Improvement Index (CHILI) as a tool to measure response to therapy in childhood-onset systemic lupus erythematosus (cSLE), with a focus on clinically relevant improvement (CRIc SLE ). METHODS: Pediatric nephrology and rheumatology subspecialists (n = 213) experienced in cSLE management were invited to define CRIc SLE and rate a total of 433 unique patient profiles for the presence/absence of CRIc SLE . Patient profiles included the following cSLE core response variables (CRVs): global assessment of patient well-being (patient-global), physician assessment of cSLE activity (MD-global), disease activity index score (here, we used the Systemic Lupus Eryt…

Chronisch thromboembolische pulmonale Hypertonie: Empfehlungen der Kölner Konsensus Konferenz 2016
2016
The 2015 European Guidelines on Pulmonary Hypertension did not cover only pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH), but also other significant subgroups of pulmonary hypertension (PH). In June 2016, a Consensus Conference organized by the PH working groups of the German Society of Cardiology (DGK), the German Society of Respiratory Medicine (DGP) and the German Society of Pediatric Cardiology (DGPK) was held in Cologne, Germany to discuss open and controversial issues surrounding the practical implementation of the European Guidelines. Several working groups were initiated, one of which was dedicated to the diagnosis and treatment of chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension (CTEPH). In ev…
THU0045 IL-25/IL-17RB AXIS IS ACTIVATED AND ASSOCIATED WITH ILC2 EXPANSION IN GRANULOMATOSIS WITH POLYANGIITIS (GPA)
2019
Background: Pathogenesis of Granulomatosis with polyangiitis (GPA) is still unknown. However, it has been observed a skewing of circulating CD4+ T cells toward the Th17 and Th2 phenotype. The pro-inflammatory cytokine interleukin 25 (IL-25) is a member of IL-17 cytokine family associated to the Th2 immune phenotype. Through the receptor IL17RB, IL-25 further sustains the Th2-type immune response and elicits the expansion of the type 2 innate lymphoid cells (ILC2) and M2 macrophages. A pathogenic role of the innate lymphoid cells in GPA has been recently demonstrated; however, the relevance of IL-25 in this condition remains unexplored. Objectives: Aim of the study was to evaluate the expres…
Minimalism for the Win : User-Centered Design for Guidance in Industrial Maintenance
2022
Background: We conducted an exploratory study to test the delivery of technical instructions built on the principles of minimalism. The aim was to investigate how we could support target users’ skill levels in a context-sensitive manner. Literature review: Related work examines minimalism, user needs and profiling, and industrial maintenance and technician experience. Research questions: 1. How can the semantic structure of DITA XML be utilized in delivering technical information to users based on their skill levels? 2. How would a layered system of information support the principles of minimalism? Methodology: We created material and tested the concept in user studies with maintenance pers…
